Teachers (specifically) have recently been notified of Staples new policy regarding limits on purchases during their special back to school sales. Little Miss Kindergarten's blog explains the issue and why it is a problem here: http://littlemisskindergarten.blogspot.com/2012/06/dear-staples.html?m=0
I and some other have been posting on Staples Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/staples to find out more about this policy. We would be more than happy to provide ID proving we are teachers so that we know we are not just crazy deal people looking to clear the shelves or something and hoarding the materials. We really need those items for our classrooms. We are not asking for anything free, we simply wish them to continue letting teachers purchase more than 5 of each deal as they did last year during these sales. Many of us teach in poor districts and need classroom sets of things that in other schools the students or school supplies. We do not mind paying out of our pockets or searching out deals. We just feel it was offensive to single out teachers in this case.
