Giveaway: Avery Dennison School Supplies & Box Tops for Education

by

Now that school’s back in session, the focus has shifted to helping our schools raise money to afford new supplies, equipment and programs to provide better education for our kids! This year, Avery Dennison has partnered with Box Tops for Education, and Avery school supplies now include coupons to clip and turn in to your school to be redeemed for cash.

Avery Dennison sent me this great gift basket of products so I can share my thoughts on them, plus I get to give the same basket away to one of my readers! I wish I could say I’m an organized person, but I subscribe more to the organized chaos theory. However, products like these inspire me to file things away in a more orderly manner. I enjoyed sorting and filing and labeling my papers with Avery’s easy-to-use systems. Now if only I could keep them that way!

And who could resist the handy tote it was all packaged in? I have baskets and totes like these all over the house to corral all of our stuff. We have far more “stuff” than we actually need, but that’s a project best tackled when I give these crutches the boot. Anyone want to help?

One lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader will win a back-to-school prize package (worth over $50!) full of Avery Dennison school and office supplies, including: Hi-Liters, labels, GlueStics, binders, dividers, sheet protectors, Marks-a-Lot permanent markers, and t-shirt transfers!

To enter, share your favorite way to get involved at your kids’ schools! Do you volunteer in the classroom? Coordinate the bookfair? Help with fundraising?

    I always chaperon field trips and school dances. I love being there to help, and see how my kids act around their friends.

    I love going to the classroom to help out with parties and special occassions. It’s fun decorating and making treats, as well as sharing the fun with the kids.

    I just started volunteering this year as my daughter is in Kindergarten. Collecting box tops is fun and easy to do and a great way to help the school! I love to do anything that directly helps the children, like reading stories to them or being the Room Mom.

    I am single and don’t have any children but I like to buy things from kids who are fundraising for their school. I do this whenever I have extra money in the budget of course.

    I do a lot of volunteering at my children’s school. I just finished getting donations for the fall carnival and I go to every class party. I try to go on all their field trips and I’ve also helped work their Santa Shop. I enjoy helping at the school and my sons love it! I’m soaking it in while I can because I know in a few years they will be embarrassed for me to come to their school. :)

    I love helping with all of the classroom parties for our elementary aged nephew who lives with us. Meanwhile, for our highschool aged daughter, it’s all about pep rallies and sporting events.

    I volunteer in my son’s 2nd grade classroom every Wednesday. I’d love to be able to give this to his teacher!

    I volunteer at the school Book Fair. Last year, I also coached a Quiz Bowl team. When my daughter was younger, I helped her teachers in the classroom, making copies, etc.
