Review from a Teacher….Big Scam If this is truly a fundraiser to support teachers, it’s a GIANT SCAM. Sure it’s nice getting the email with all of your class gift cards. However, you can ONLY use the gift cards at their company store. The store is full of OVERPRICED, useless junk that we (teachers) don’t want or need. A 2 pack of sticky notes cost $33. Everything cost 3 or 4 times what it cost at a store. Even Office Depot gives us better discounts. It would’ve been more beneficial for parents to buy what we actually want and need from our Amazon wishlist. As a teacher, this is a huge fail.

Overpriced, Random Junk From a parent’s perspective, I’m surprised to see so many positive reviews. The products listed on my child’s School Store site is about 90% magazines, & the rest is overpriced junk. A mini light up avocado fan mirror for $22, 53 issues of tv guide for $43, cardboard kids dinosaur 300 piece puzzle for $32, a dog bowl & poop bag dispenser for $34… I’m all about fundraisers & loved them as a kid, but if you want us to bombard our family & friends with emails begging them to spend money on your site, at least give them some decent items to shop for. These are some of the most random, useless, overpriced, dollar store quality products that I’ve ever seen from a school fundraiser, & we’d have to sell $300 worth just for my child to win a dollar tree “squeeze ball,” $2-$3K for the Nintendo Switch, which would be fine if you had anything worth buying. We’d have better luck selling snowcones in a blizzard.

This was my first year using… This was my first year using SchoolStore. Schoolstore has helped me save money. I have been able to purchase some needed supplies for my students that otherwise I would have purchased myself. I was able to purchase a lot of different classroom decoration.

I would rather give money straight to… I would rather give money straight to the teachers. The pricing of items and money to points ratio is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous! Sure I’ll send emails for the cheap prize but I don’t expect anyone to purchase from the store.

This fundraiser is easy for the parents… This fundraiser is easy for the parents and the students love the prizes. The staff support was amazing!
