All About August

Summer’s final chapter is here, and it’s a good one. The sun is still out, the deals are real, and fall is already peeking around the corner. Between the back-to-school buzz and early hints of a new season, August is the month to stock up for it all. Whatever’s on your list, we’ve got you covered.

Everything You Need

Stocking up for the school year, checking out early fall styles, and so much more, is all waiting for you in one place. August has a way of sneaking up fast, and every moment of it deserves to be done right. Whether you’re gearing up for the new school year, chasing the last days of summer, or getting a head start on the season ahead, this is the month to show up and make it count.

Dorm Room Ready

Move-in day is closer than it looks. Frame the perfect dorm room pictures and customize your room with The Frame and Print Shop, find tech gear at AT&T and Verizon, and all the essentials you’ll need at Harris Teeter. Celebrate the milestone with a meal at Stoney River Steakhouse and Grill before the big drop-off and send them off prepared for whatever the year brings.

Wellness Reset

A new season on the horizon means a good time to refocus. Stock up on activewear and stay for a class at Cyclebar and solidcore or book a little end-of-summer self-care and sweat it out at SWTHZ. Refuel with something nourishing from Chick-fil-A or H&H Bagels. A reset doesn’t have to wait for January.

Foodie Finds

There’s no better way to kick off the new season than with good food. Grab a casual bite at The Flying Biscuit Cafe, satisfy a sweet tooth at Jeni’s Ice Creams, or settle in for something more at Hawkers. Need a coffee fix to power through the errands? Starbucks has you covered. And if you’re craving something to share with the whole crew, Bartaco is the perfect spot to enjoy quality time and a great meal.
