What is a Lil' Shoppers Shoppe?

Lil' Shopper's Shoppe is a family owned and operated business that has been in operation since 1976. 

Holiday Shop is a gift-buying business where the merchandise is shipped to the school, children go into the elementary schools, shop independently and shop for Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister, with most of the gifts are priced under $5.00. Students have the chance to shop on a small budget and with $just $10 they can buy several gifts for family members, teachers, etc.

It runs similar to a book fair. Everything is sold on consignment and there's no risk to your school.

 

Why Choose Lil' Shoppers Shoppe?

1) The Quality of our Gifts - We design 100% of our gifts, including the packaging to give them character and the kids can feel proud of their selections even if they are just 50 cents or a dollar.  They are not just imprinted novelty items.  Our quality sets us apart from other companies.

2) Technology - We've had a chairperson's website to give you accesses to everything you need to know about your holiday shop.  We also have an app to give you the ability to check students out to make it quick and easy.  We also have a gift certificate program where families can pay with a credit card and then students can go in with a gift certificate instead of cash. 

3) Attention to Detail - We make sure there are images on everything we do from pictures on the tent card, to the inventory sheet etc. to make your job easy and simple.

There are so many Reasons why your School should schedule a Lil' Shopper's Shoppe this fall!

"Hi Deb! 

 

I can't believe we are $40.00 away from 10,000.00!!!!  Too cool!  The kids did a great job this year!  Starting early was key, as well as the offering on the wax melts! I'm so surprised how well those sold!  I'm hoping we get a few stragglers on Monday! I'd love to see a $5,000 profit. Thank you for a great sheet of product!" 

 

Craig, Vocal Director

Deb, 

 

Oh, my gosh!!  We just closed our fundraiser and our cheerleaders have collected over $12,000 so far and we still have late orders coming in!  I'm so excited! I'll let you know when we are all done.

Thank you so much for a great fundraiser. I never expected we'd sell so many candles and we've sold more more wax melts than I ever expected. We are so glad we chose LaTeeDa!  Thank you Deb!

 

Michelle, Cheer Coach

We offer up to 50% profit, FREE pack-by-seller, free brochures, no up-front costs, and fast shipping.  Our candles and wax melts are easy to sell, are loved by customers, and with FREE pack-by-seller, our LaTeeDa!

We make set up as easy as possible:


Every box that arrives at the School will have its own packing slip on top so there is no need to share a master inventory sheet or wondering what is in the box. A chairperson last year said that we carry multiple “Rings” and that pictures would be helpful in recognizing 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 who only has an hour to help out can help with restocking by simply matching the pictures with the items. Year after year we try to think of new ways to make your job easier!
