Please check your kids’ backpack this week for the KidStuff coupon savings book! I know many people are finding last year’s coupon book under a seat in their car at this point, BUT there are some exciting changes to the sale this year that make it both easier to sell and use the book!
Online selling to family and friends is super easy with the link provided in the letter coming home, AND an app is included with each purchased book! No need to worry about having the book with you (app is disabled with books returned unpurchased).
The 7th grade parents and students hope every student will buy or sell at least one coupon book in support of their fundraising to defray costs of their 8th grade graduation.
We all have that family member that LOVES coupons – this is the perfect gift !
Sale ends 11/27/18 , after Thanksgiving weekend.
Thank you so much in advance !
