Asda is also offering 10% off all school wear bought on the George website until September 11.
Scott MacRae, senior buying manager for Schoolwear at George, said: “With only a week until schools return, we know that our customers will be focused on making sure their children are kitted out for the new school year.
"We appreciate that this can be stressful, especially for large families, so we want to help budgets stretch further with our back-to-school offers across our website and Asda Rewards."
How does Asda Rewards work?
Asda Rewards allows shoppers to build up "Asda Pounds" when shopping in-store or online and completing certain tasks.

These Pounds go into a "Cashpot" which you then convert into vouchers to get money off future purchases.
For example, one of the tasks available today sees customers who spend £5 on chilled burgers and buns have £1 added to their Cashpot.
You can also get a 10% boost on your Pounds when buying "Star" products which are updated on the app regularly.
You can download the loyalty app on to your smart phone for free by using Google Play or the App Store.
You have to scan the app at the till every time you do a shop and the Pounds are added to your account.
