Teacher Appreciation Day at STAPLES tomorrow

Just a reminder

Between 9 and 12, Staples is having their annual Teacher Appreciation Day. If you bring your ID or pay stub, they will give you some coupons and a few supplies. I live near a bunch of Staples stores so I actually hit a few - I know VERY lame. Sometimes they have doughnuts and coffee.

We are scavengers mainly because we are always dipping into our own pockets for supplies. I must spend a couple thousand dollars over the school year.

In years past, they gave you pencils, stickers, pens, notebooks, erasers etc. Each store is different. IT comes in a canvas bag.

My grandfather asked me what they supply us. I looked at him and said "Chalk." He couldn't believe it.

It's true and very sad. Teachers are underpaid for the amount of work they do, and it's a shame that they dont get more funds for their classrooms.

Ive worked in the corporate world where I shopped for anything from planners, software books, asked to take 5-6 day work-related courses (during work hours) that were very expensive, anything and everything we wanted was expensed.

such a shame for teachers Chat Icon

Re: Teacher Appreciation Day at STAPLES tomorrow

I don't know if they're all the same - but the one in Bay Shore is giving out:

~ plastic accordion folder
~ pens
~ highlighters
~ paper clips
~ yellow pad of paper
~ some kind of game book
~ dry erase marker
~ post-its

plus assorted coupons!

definitely worth the trip, IMO!!

ETA: they also had coffee and munchkins, but I already promised DH an apple turnover from the bakery this morning since he's going to be painting today.

Re: Teacher Appreciation Day at STAPLES tomorrow

Great stuff! Same goodies as above. I went to Massapequa and in Babylon they had coffee and munchkins.
There was a good coupon for a stamper. I wanted to do that for so long to stamp all my books and it is good for my mail too!
I get a free teachers stamp set with it too!
GOOD STUFF! They were out of Orange folders so better go soon!
Have fun!Chat Icon

I just went to the one in Farmingdale. I can't run around to all different Staples, my DH would kill me! Great stuff though! They had raffles, hopefully I win something!

Re: Teacher Appreciation Day at STAPLES tomorrow

they were NASTY to me in valley stream! i brought my paystub...which she proceeded to examineChat Icon and said "gimme your union card". i said there's no such thing. then she's like "this is BOE"? i said clearly not...it says the suffolk county district on top. then she insisted on matching my name on my license to the paystub. she was RUDE. all i kept thinking was if this is how they appreciate teachers i don't want to know how they appreciate others.

then i went to freeport and they had raffles and stuff. no one cared about a paystub or id. much better experience!

I went to Freeport 2 years in a row for those canvas bags. they were fun there and very nice. They just give you the stuff without problems.
I was harrased a little in the Babylon store but lucky my neighbor works there and I name dropped and she forked over the pink binder Chat Icon

I actually buy my ow chalk bc the chalk they supply is awful. LL Weans sells the Sargent chalk which is so smooth and doesn't squeak on the board.
