The new school year will be starting for most of us in just a matter of weeks. Parents are working diligently to fulfill their children’s school supply lists, but did you know that most teachers spend more than $400 out of their own pocket every year to buy materials and supplies to stock their classrooms for the new school year?
To help teachers stretch their dollar farther, Staples has their Teacher Appreciation Week that runs Sunday, August 2 through Saturday, August 8. Teachers can get an exclusive coupon that will provide them 40% back in Staples® Teacher Rewards on popular items including school supplies, teaching, and art supplies as well as cleaning supplies for the classroom from brands teachers love such as Sharpie, 3M and Crayola.
This discount applies to in-store purchases only made during the dates mentioned above. Technology, Staples Less List & Extreme Deal offers are excluded from this coupon offer. The Refer a Fellow Teacher offer extends the savings to other educators.
“To celebrate the important work teachers do and help get them 110% ready for the new school year, Staples is offering an exclusive discount during our Teacher Appreciation Week,” said Alison Corcoran, senior vice president, North American stores and online marketing, Staples. “We understand the significant role teachers play in students’ lives and are excited to offer this discount.”
Teachers can also use the Staples Less List, the back-to-school 110% Lowest Price Guarantee and Extreme Deals to save even more! For this week only (August 2 through 8), Staples Teacher Rewards members can purchase a customizable Staples brand teacher planner for only $24.99 (regularly $39.99) with discount code, online only. Teachers can download their 40 percent back in Staples® Teacher Rewards coupon and find information on the customizable Staples brand teacher planner at www.staples.com/classroom
