Elementary PTA
Dear Supporters,
This Spring we are excited to use Regal Gifts for our Fundraising Campaign. They
offer more than 1000 products with hundreds being priced under $20. We are
offering everyone the opportunity to shop Regal this spring so that we can gauge
your interest in using Regal as our 2011-12 Fundraising catalogue. Funds raised
will be used to support many school needs including upgrades to the computer lab
and improvements to the playground/outdoor classroom playing surface. We are
sure everyone can find something either for themselves or as a gift for family and
friends.
Important Points
Regal has designed a website personalized fro St. Stephen’s to ensure safe and
secure ordering – www.stsepta.shopregal.ca. Please read all the details on the
homepage. You can also reach the catalogue through a link on our PTA website
ssespta.com.
You can start placing your orders immediately and all orders must be placed by
May 31st, 2011.
After placing your order on our web store, the products are delivered directly to
you. In stock items generally arrive within 7-10 business days.
To ensure your order is delivered quickly, we need you to either enter a physical
address (not PO Box) or include your phone number when asked during the order
process. For speedy delivery we recommend including both.
Regal has a low shipping rate - only $5 per order under $124.99 or 4% of the
order total if your order is $125 or more. ( plus taxes)
Our Organization earns at least 30% on every order and up to 45% if we all buy
more!!
Product Exchanges are done directly through Regal’s Exchange Centre –
www.regal.ca/exchangecentre. Refunds can be requested through the Centre as
well as long as your campaign is open. After the campaign closes you will only be
able to receive an exchange.
We thank you for your continued support!!
