Teacher Appreciation Discounts and Freebies 2018

Check out these Teacher Appreciation Crafts!

Teacher Appreciation week is traditionally the first full week in May (unless your school does something different).  We have not seen nearly the deals this year that we have in the past but there is a nice ongoing list of deals on the bottom of this post.

Hopefully your favorite teacher (or you) can take advantage of them (more to come):

Bruegger’s Bagels: As part of this year’s Teacher Appreciation week (May 7-11), Bruegger’s will help students and parents celebrate teachers by offering 20 percent off catering – perfect for a teacher’s break room feast of bagels, cream cheese and coffee – and a free egg sandwich of choice with the purchase of a $25 gift card— a great gift for that teacher who is worth a (big bagel) bundle.

CiCis: On May 8th CiCis would like to thank all teachers by offering them a free adult buffet with a valid school ID and coupon.

Chipotle: In honor of teachers and their hard work, we’re giving all educators BUY-ONE/GET-ONE FREE BURRITOS, BOWLS, SALADS, OR ORDERS OF TACOS. Teachers, faculty, and staff: bring in your school ID to any Chipotle in the U.S. on Tuesday May 8th from 3pm-close and we’ll hook you up.
