Back To School.... And Off To The Poorhouse

It's time for back-to-school shopping, and the typical American family will spend an average of $443.77 per student on essential learning supplies such as notebooks, pencils, glue, clothing, graphing calculators, textbooks, and IPod accessories.

Of course, once you factor in gasoline for the SUV so you can drive to the various stores, that figure quickly rises to $983.47.
