It’s time to stock up on school supplies, and there’s one spot you might not have considered for back-to-school shopping -- a pawn shop.
Pawn shops could help you find big savings on expensive items like musical instruments, clothing, laptops and other electronics.
A local pawn shop is also offering another way to help students be prepared for the new school year. Motor City Pawn Brokers is giving away 500 free backpacks with supplies to people in need. The giveaway will be held Saturday, Aug. 27 at the store’s locations in Detroit, Ferndale, Roseville and Warren. The event will also include free food, drinks and games.
