1. What is a school holiday shop fundraiser?
A school holiday shop fundraiser is a special in-school event where students can purchase affordable gifts for family and friends during the holiday season. Tip Top Holiday Shop supplies everything your PTA, PTO, or school needs to run a magical, stress-free event — from curated gifts to setup materials and free return shipping.

​

2. How does Tip Top Holiday Shop work?
We ship a ready-to-run holiday shop kit directly to your school. It includes pre-priced gifts, display materials, signage, and a step-by-step volunteer guide. Students shop during school hours, and at the end of your event, you return any unsold items for free. You keep the profit from the sales to support your school programs.

​

3. How much does it cost to host a holiday shop?
There’s no upfront cost to host a Tip Top Holiday Shop fundraiser. You only pay for the gifts your students purchase. Plus, you set your own profit margin so your school can raise extra funds for field trips, classroom supplies, and activities.

​

4. What types of gifts are included?
Our kits feature a wide variety of quality, affordable gifts for all ages — from small toys and novelty items for kids to thoughtful keepsakes for parents and grandparents. Prices typically range from $1 to $17, making it easy for every student to participate.

​

5. Do you offer free shipping and returns?
Yes! Shipping to your school is completely free, and any unsold items can be returned at no cost using the prepaid return label included in your kit.

​

6. How far in advance should we book?
Most schools reserve their holiday shop now to secure preferred dates. Booking early ensures you get the time slot you want, especially for events in late November and December.

​

7. Do you provide promotional materials?
Yes. Every holiday shop kit includes posters, flyers, and digital graphics so you can easily promote your event in newsletters, on social media, and around the school.

​

8. How many volunteers will we need?
Most schools find that 3–5 volunteers per shift is ideal for managing checkout, helping students choose gifts, and keeping displays organized.

​

9. What support is available during our event?
You’ll have a dedicated Tip Top Holiday Shop contact who’s available by phone or email to answer questions and help solve any issues before, during, and after your shop.
