Los materiales escolares shopping activity (School supplies shopping activity)

Length: 4 pages

Luis needs to buy some school supplies including a new laptop and a new lunch bag. His parents have given him $150.00, and he can’t get any more money. He has $150 of his own savings that he plans to use. Look at the list of supplies that Luis needs to buy. He plans to shop at two office supply stores. Then, fill out the invoice for each store in the template provided. Different items can be bought at both stores. It is acceptable to spend less than $300 and have money left over. Also, Luis will be paying a 4 percent sales tax. One store offers reward members an additional 5 percent discount and the other store gives reward members 2 percent cash back on all purchases.

For each store, a list of items and prices are provided. A template is provided for the invoices.
