{CLOSED} Lovable Labels – Back to School Giveaway

by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom on July 31, 2012

You’ll never have to visit the school’s lost and found again with these lovable labels!

We work really hard with our school aged kids, teaching them personal responsibility and keeping track of their belongings. But inevitably, something doesn’t make it home. Ever. And when I see the lost and found box at school, I pretend that we don’t have anything in there, even if we might. Why? It’s massive. It’s intimidating. And I’d rather not have to look through it all.

Instead, I’d rather label. And get things back to my kids before they end up in the lost and found box. This is why I’m thrilled to be giving away these to you all this week. Perfect timing, as we head back into the school season too!

The Lovable Labels Back to School Pack is jam-packed with over 165 different labels to suit your every need, and includes the following:

15 Regular Labels
80 Slimline Labels
48 Press n’ Stick Clothing DOTS
12 Shoe Labels
2 Mini-Metal tags
12 Square Labels

The winner of these label packs can personalize them with their child’s name, their family’s last name or any other name they prefer…and they get to choose from 10 different designs and 45 different icons!

Also, I’ve got a coupon code for $5 off $25 purchase or more, good through 9/30/2012. To redeem a coupon you may use it while checking out, use the code BTS201247.

This week, 2 winners will receive one of the Back to School Label Packs from Lovable Labels. Entry details below.

Susan August 1, 2012 at 2:13 am: My daughter lost her only sweatshirt and convinced me it was lost at home, not at school. Over a month went by and I happened to be at school and had time to look in the huge lost and found pile (she told me she had already). When i got to the end of the pile it was there! And the next day was a sign they were donating all to Goodwill at the end of the week. So glad we found it!
