You know those cute pictures of their kids holding colorful and personalized back-to-school signs that many parents proudly post on social media? Well, if you’re a type B (or C) parent like me who has always wondered how on earth parents pull those off, we have good news for you: You can simply pick up a free, personalized back-to-school sign from Staples this year!
The back-to-school signs are so cute, totally free, and even better, can be picked up the same day you order (as long as you order by noon). How convenient is that?
To order the sign, just visit the Staples website and search for a store near you. Once you find a store through the online locator, you can visit the store to order your free, personalized sign. The free offer is only valid in-store and is limited to one sign per person, as well as a single 8.5 x 11-inch size only.
Here is a selection of some of the free back-to-school signs you can choose from.
