NBT Bank offers their top five savings strategies to help minimize the impact of back-to-school expenses on the family budget – because parents know that the cost of school supplies, clothing and shoes will add up quickly.

In addition to sharing these tips directly with customers, media outlets across the bank’s six-state footprint also shared the information with readers across several communities.

The Savings Tips are available on the nbtbank.com website, and more information about Financial Literacy is available at www.nbtbank.com/strive.
