What is a Lil' Shopper's Shoppe Holiday Shop Fundraiser?
At schools, our Lil' Shopper's Shoppes are set up so that all the kids can come and shop for their family and friends. It's like a book fair where kids can buy things within their budget. Lil' Shopper's Shoppe makes it easy! We supply your in-school holiday shop with a large inventory of Santa Shop / Holiday Shop merchandise and supplies. The Holiday Shop provides students with a gift-buying opportunity, with merchandise shipped to the school. The kids' faces say it all! They just can't hold back the excitement as they enter the Lil' Shopper's Shoppe for their big opportunity to shop for holiday gifts and then experience the magic of giving as they present those special items to their friends and family. For some, it's the first time they've been able to shop and handpick gifts for those on their shopping list, and the pride of that Independence makes them glow. They're learning how to budget and have a phenomenal time. It's priceless to experience this as a sponsor running the program, and it is also rewarding for Moms. Children can shop independently at their elementary school and select gifts for Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister, Grandparents, and teachers, with most items priced under $5.00. Students can have fun and shop with a small budget of $10-$20. Everything is sold on consignment, and there's no risk to your school.

What Sets Lil' Shopper's Shoppe Apart From Other Holiday Shops
Our holiday shop fundraiser is based on three simple philosophies:
1) The Quality of Our Gifts—First and foremost, we provide quality merchandise. We're the only holiday shop supplier in the industry that designs 100 percent of our products and packaging to give them character. This allows kids to feel proud of their selections, even if they cost just 50 cents or a dollar. Our gifts are not merely imprinted novelty items; our quality sets us apart from other holiday shop companies. The quality of our items will be appreciated by your families.
2) Technology—We have a dedicated website that provides you with access to everything you need to know about your holiday shop. Our technology, from our cash register app, gift certificates, and our chairperson's portal, everything is designed with the volunteers in mind. Our Lil' Shopper's Shoppe app makes it easy for kids to check out quickly. We also offer a gift certificate program for our Santa Shop, allowing families to pay with a credit card and have students use the gift certificate instead of cash.
3) Attention to Detail—We make it as simple and easy as possible for our volunteers by supplying them with bags, table covers, and we ensure that everything we produce has images, from the tent card to the inventory sheet, to make your job easy and straightforward.

A chairperson last year said that we carry multiple "Rings" and that pictures would help identify the different items. Each packing inventory list has images of each item next to the description and quantity to make things easier. We have also added images to the Pre-Priced tent cards, which correspond to the pricing you select when you sign up. (0% profit, 10% profit, 20% profit, or Blank if you would like to set your own prices) With images now on our tent cards, even a volunteer with only an hour to help can restock by simply matching the pictures to the items. Year after year, we try to think of new ways to make your job easier!
