   I wonder if homeschool teachers count??

   Where in the store are these events located?

  I don’t think so as the site didn’t have much info and other news sources stated that you had to bring your school ID or show your school email address.

   I wonder if this will be like the baby event where the employees had no idea about it!

   I’m hoping they will at least get the teachers event right b/c the “baby event” in my area was laughable.

   Don’t look like too many stores are participating. None near me are. And the free bag is for the first 300 in the store only

   If you are a member of HSLDA you have a card that nearly everywhere accepts as a teacher ID.

   Does anyone know if there is a grade limit? I’m a grad student on a teaching scholarship, so I teach undergrad classes to get my tuition down. The supplies would be helpful b/c I would have to less to buy for my classroom. Being a student and a teacher makes money tight.

   Would be nice if the Walmart in my area actually participated in this or cared about their customers.

  DARN! Sorry to hear about that, Colleen! My store is not on the list for this event either. Is there another nearby Walmart that may be having it, that you could shop at? Hope that helps!

    This sounds awesome but disappointed in the locations offered. While I would have been nicely surprised if my OR Coast Walmart had one, you would think of all the Walmart’s in Portland there would be more than one location there too!

    This was a disappointment. And false advertisement. I was there before 1230. There are 4 items in the bag..a pair of scissors, a 4 pack of dry erase markers, one pen and one marker

  This was not worth leaving the house! My bag only had 2 coupons, 2 flyers, a ruler, one pen, and one marker. This was not worth the trip. I hope other teachers get better bags. 🙁

  I got one pen, one highlighter, and a ruler. Your bag must have been the “deluxe” bag.
  I was there at 12:05

    My sister in law just went and was there before start time. Her “swag bag” consisted of flyers and coupons. And only like 5 of them at that. I would post a picture if I could. Disappointing. I guess the contents are dependent on what the location wants to do?? Did any of y’all get real “stuff”?

    I hope no one rearranged their day for this it was a waste of my time. Blue shopping bag a 79 cent ruler. A few coupons to buy stuff in their store. Cake and ice cream. I shared this with fellow teachers. I felt duped.

    It was a big slap on the face for teachers ! The swag bag contained one ☝️ pen . The treats was a sample size cake ( inside those little ketchup cups) . And the activity was one ☝️ box of legos to share.

    Sadly, it was a disappointment! I received a Walmart bag, Walmart koozie, one ruler, a few pens, and some coupons. I used some of the coupons so that was nice. The promotion of this was huge………the reality not so much.
