Avoid Stressful Headaches This Back To School Season With Excedrin PLUS Enter To Win This Month’s Prize Pack HERE!

Excedrin Back to School

According to a recent survey by the makers of Excedrin44% of parents say they expect to get a headache during the back to school season. And if I can be frank… I think that 56% of you all are lying! I would bet my right arm that a headache will be brewing for me during that first week of school. HANDS DOWN NO QUESTIONS asked. There’s just so much to do and with three kids of my own… a few things ALWAYS fall to the waist side. 

Take last year for example, my second child was heading to Kindergarden and I was pregnant with my third. It was a very crazy time for the entire family and somehow we forgot to get Liam’s medical forms in order. Needless to say, we were scrambling the day before school started to get to the doctor to have it all sorted out. Thank goodness my friend happened to mention that she did the same exact thing in passing to us because it was the reminder we needed for Liam.

If we hadn’t had that simple conversation, Liam would have missed his first day of school and I would have regretted it for the rest of my life! Bill and I were pretty much in a panic until all of the papers were in order and then I couldn’t calm down until the nurse had the packet in her hand.

Even now – just thinking about the whole mess is elevating my heart rate. LOL!

Want more info on that Exedrin survey?? I have a few more statistics I thought were fun to share:

According to a recent survey by the makers of Excedrin®, more than one-third of parents* cite getting themselves (41%) and their children (43%) back on a schedule at the top of the list of things that might cause their headaches during the back to school season.

In addition, more than one-third (35%) of parents* say shopping for school supplies might give them a headache. With all the pencils, folders and notebooks, parents should remember to put Excedrin® on their back to school shopping list.

According to a recent survey by the makers of Excedrin®, a large majority of parents (85%) think their schools are in need of new or upgraded supplies such as pencils and paper and computers or software and gym/sporting equipment. And that’s because with every purchase of Excedrin®, parents can enter for a chance to win $10,000 for their child’s school.

The day before school started, my 2nd grade granddaughter said her hair was too hot and cut it off. It went from mid back to above her shoulders and she loves it.
