If you started with the preparations for the new school year, you probably noticed that this year, the articles cost even more than before. Textbooks and school supplies have become even more expensive than usual, a phenomenon that even stationery dealers allege.
According to INSTAT data published by Monitor.al, the index of textbooks and textbooks increased by 7.6% in August this year, while in other years this change was less than 3%.
However, the increase in price seems to be justified by the quality of the goods. Today, school supplies are available in the market that were not traded years ago due to lack of customers. It seems that parents today, take care to make quality purchases for their children, regardless of the costs.
However, the same businesses say that the number of children buying school supplies is falling year after year, as many of them are unable to afford those prices.
