Secret Shop: FAQs
- What is Secret Shop? Secret Shop, brought to you by the NES PTO, is an opportunity for students to shop for holiday gifts, on their own ("in secret"), for their loved ones. A wide variety of high-quality merchandise will be available for purchase. Merchandise will cover a range of price points, starting as low as $1.00 and no more than $10.00!
- Why is this Secret Shop SO SUPER EXCITING? (because it is!!!) Instead of hiring a vendor to bring their limited offering of low-quality, high-priced items, the NES PTO researched, hand-selected and purchased each and every item being offered the Secret Shop. This 'ain't your ordinary Secret Shop!
- OK, What does that mean? This means that your kids will have a chance to purchase from a wide variety of items that all members of your family will love at affordable prices! (no more "World's Greatest Dad" trophies!)
- What type of merchandise will be available? We'll have fabulous gift options for every member of the family including tote bags with inspirational quotes, mugs and tumblers, necklaces, coaster sets, cutting boards, plus much, much more!
- When is Secret Shop? December 10th - 12th
- Will students miss class time to shop? No. Each class will have designated time slots to shop during their scheduled recess times. Students who wish to participate will simply visit the Secret Shop instead and return to recess when they are done.
- Does my child have to participate? No. Secret Shop is purely optional. Students who wish to participate may do so. Other students will simply remain outside and enjoy their recess.
Will anyone be on hand to help younger students shop? Yes! We have volunteers lined up to help for this event (thank you)! PTO volunteers will also be on hand to help students select appropriate items and ensure they are budgeting their money properly.
How will volunteers know what each family's budget is? An envelope will be sent home prior to Secret Shop dates. Parents are to put the money they'd like their child to spend at Secret Shop in the envelope (or indicate a budget if the child is not permitted to spend the entire amount).
Here's a sneak peek at a few items available at Secret Shop. You'll have to wait until the holidays to see what was picked out especially for you!
