Families making last-minute school preparations have just a few days left to shop and save, with Carrefour offering discounts of up to 70% on selected food, stationery and electronics until August 31.
Shoppers can also enter prize promotions, earn extra SHARE cashback and use flexible 0% payment plans on eligible purchases.
From school bags and notebooks to laptops, tablets, printers and lunchbox essentials, the promotion is designed to cover the items families are likely to need before the new academic year gets underway.
Save up to 70% on school essentials
The Carrefour Back-to-School promotion covers selected products across several everyday categories, including stationery, food and electronics.
That means families can pick up last-minute essentials such as notebooks, school bags, lunchbox supplies and snacks, while also shopping for bigger-ticket items including laptops, tablets and printers.
With the promotion ending on August 31, shoppers looking to complete their school lists have limited time to take advantage of the discounts.
Spend Dhs 300 and enter to win
SHARE members who spend Dhs 300 on qualifying stationery and school essentials, food and selected electronics can enter a prize draw for 50,000 SHARE points, worth Dhs 5,000 to spend at Carrefour.
There will be 200 winners in the promotion.
Parents spending Dhs 300 on school essentials can also receive a play code printed on their receipt, giving them the opportunity to win Dhs 5,000 towards a year’s worth of lunchbox food supplies. The promotion has 100 winners for this prize.
Students and teachers get extra cashback
Students and teachers can unlock an additional saving when buying selected electronics.
By presenting valid school identification before payment, eligible students and teachers can receive 15% extra cashback in SHARE points on selected products, including laptops, tablets, printers, printer cartridges and PC accessories.
This could make the offer particularly useful for families still looking to buy or upgrade technology ahead of the new school year.
Pay for electronics over time
For families facing larger Back-to-School expenses, Carrefour is also offering a 0% Easy Payment Plan for up to 28 months through Emirates NBD and seven other participating banks.
The option allows eligible customers to spread the cost of selected purchases rather than paying the full amount upfront.
Get school essentials delivered in 60 minutes
Last-minute shoppers do not necessarily need to make a trip to the store.
Carrefour’s online platform offers more than 35,000 items, including fresh food, snacks, lunchbox essentials, stationery and other school supplies, with delivery available in as little as 60 minutes.
That gives families another option for filling gaps in their school shopping list as the start of the academic year approaches.
Carrefour, which is owned by Majid Al Futtaim in the UAE, is giving families until August 31 to take advantage of the Back-to-School promotion.
For parents still missing stationery, school bags, food supplies or electronics, the final days of the campaign offer an opportunity to combine discounts with SHARE rewards, prize draws and flexible payment options before the new school year begins.
