Holiday shop success story # 1
“We used them last year for Mary Esther Elementary holiday shop 2018 and they were amazing. The kids were able to afford more and liked the products that were available below $5.00. We had nothing over $11.00. They have always been friendly customer service and their shipping was the best I have ever experienced, we would order in the afternoon and have the new products by morning, we are in Florida. I would highly recommend trying them out. We are using them again for 2019.” — Denise Write

We will definitely use them in the future if we decide to run a full holiday shop next year!” — Michele Horton
