Subject: Purchasing from Amazon
Hey guys,
So I know we all love Amazon, but we are starting to attract some red flags. So a couple of things to think about and remember.
* If we are purchasing a single item or any items that the shipping cost are the same value as the item purchased or close to it then we should try to find the item elsewhere else.
* Common items – If we can purchase in a store like Target or Smart and Final then we should. Examples, cups, plates, liquid IV.
* Program Items – Craft supplies, goodie bag items – please try and use other websites such as fun express, paper mart, Discount School Supply, S&S
* Purchasing Amount – Anytime you charge a large amount – Over $200 people tend to inspect more.
I totally understand that we need to use Amazon and sometimes it our only avenue and convenient, just be mindful.
Thanks
-Andee
