I just finished an in-person Follett fair. It was very different from the one I had last year at this time, but we were still able to bring in $1000 (compared to almost $5000 last year). </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color: rgb(51, 51, 153);">
Our school is currently not allowing any parents into the building (even to the office), so all purchases were made by/through the students. Some brought money and the flyer that had gone home with their selections circled, others just had money to browse.
I usually do a preview day where all 800 students get a chance to look around. That was not able to happen this spring either, so students really didn't know what we had, until they came to shop. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color: rgb(51, 51, 153);">
My biggest issue was that I usually remind them about tax when they come for the preview day, and I didn't have that opportunity, so there were some instances where they had to keep their money for an extra day so they could go home and get a little more to
pay for the tax.</div>
