The price increase in stationery products scared. While inflation and the cost of living were increasing rapidly, low-income parents, who cut almost all their expenditures, started to think about the day when schools would open.

Parents who think about how to cover stationery expenses in September will face many other expenses. While the increase in service fees is expected to reach 50 percent, the level of price increases with the announcement of the school catalogs of the markets has also been revealed.

320 TL WILL BE PAID ONLY FOR THE BOOK

According to Sรถzcรผ’s report; While more than 100 percent increases were observed in products such as pencils, erasers and paints, the increase in notebook prices drew attention. Last September, 80-page notebooks at the level of 4-5 TL went on sale for 19.90 TL.

Considering the need for at least 7-8 notebooks for each student, the amount that a parent with 2 children should pay for only the notebook is 320 TL.

THE PRODUCT THAT WAS 5 TL IS 10 TL

It will also be very difficult to fill the pencil case this September. The number of pencils has increased from 1 TL to 2.5 TL. While the price of the set of 4 red pencils was 5 TL in the ‘back to school’ catalogs published in September last year, it increased to 10 TL this year.

While the same brand of 12 watercolors was sold at a price of 19.90 TL last year, it went on sale this September with a label of 29.99 TL. The hike rates are much higher for products manufactured with imported raw materials and affected by the sharp depreciation in TL, for example adhesives.

In September last year, triple glue was sold for 19 TL, while this year, the same brand product’s triple set came to the shelves for 46 TL.
