The cost of living is a major concern for many families around the world, with expenses such as rent, food, healthcare, and education taking up a significant portion of their budget. In addition to these essential expenses, technology has become an important aspect of our lives, with gadgets and devices used for work, communication, entertainment, and more. However, buying new technology can be expensive, adding to the burden of the already high cost of living. In this post, we will explore how buying refurbished technology can alleviate the burden of buying new and contribute to while living a more sustainable life by supporting the circular economy.

The Cost of Living

According to recent data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average American household spends approximately $63,036 per year, with the largest expenses being housing, transportation, and food. Parents who live paycheck-to-paycheck sometimes struggle to keep up with the technology their children need to learn. Most schools have turned to online homework platforms, going 100% paperless. The cost of a new laptop of $1,500 or more can be a significant expense, particularly for families requiring multiple devices. These costs can quickly accumulate and put a strain on the family budget.

In the UK, the cost of living is a major concern for many households. Based on current statistics provided by the Office for National Statistics, the average monthly expenditure on necessities like rent, utilities, food, and transportation adds up to £2,562. It is also important to point out that the price of tablets and laptops are not cheaper in Europe, families in the UK face the same problem that Americans, and that most people around the world, face.

Refurbished Tech: An Affordable, and Reliable Alternative

Refurbished technology refers to electronic devices, such as smartphones, laptops, smartwatches, and tablets, that have been returned to the manufacturer or seller for a new model, or simply because they were no longer needed. These devices are then repaired, restored to their original condition, and thoroughly tested to ensure they meet the same quality standards as new products.

In the pursuit of finding affordable tech solutions, many parents have opted to buy refurbished devices. Refurbed tech has become mainstream thanks to the large offer found in many marketplaces that sell them at a lower price point – which can vary based on the product type, condition after repairs, and where you're buying it from. Not only is buying a refurbished iPad cheaper than buying a brand new one, but you are preventing e-waste landfills from keeping on growing; thus, continuing to pollute the planet.

However, comparing prices and quality across different retailers can be a time-consuming process, which is why it's important to choose a reliable and trustworthy seller, when purchasing these devices that your children require to own.
