Dear Parents/Guardians, We are proud to announce that the P.S./I.S. 178 Barnes & Noble Bookfair will be taking place at the Fresh Meadows location on Tuesday, December 4, 2012 from 5-7 P.M. You will also have an opportunity to support us by shopping online from Tuesday, December 4, 2012 through Sunday, December 9, 2012. A percentage of your purchase made through www.bn.com/bookfairs will be contributed to our Bookfair. Here’s how: • Be sure to use the web address above (www.bn.com/bookfairs) to do your online shopping. • When you’ve finished selecting your purchases, click on your cart and begin the check-out process. On the payment page, there will be a section at the bottom that states Check Here If This Is a Bookfair Order. When you check the box, type in our bookfair ID number 10927846 in the required entry field. • If you already have a BN.com account with a default payment method, you will only see a Checkout Summary screen. To add the Bookfair ID to the payment page, you will need to click on the Change button on the right-hand side of the Payment Section. This will take you back to the payment page, where you can enter our bookfair ID number 10927846. • After placing your order, you can log back into your Order Summary Confirmation to check to see if the Bookfair ID number is listed on your order (10927846). If it is, everything was done correctly! • If you do not see a Bookfair ID number (10927846), or if you realize that you placed your order without using our Bookfair ID number, please call Customer Service at 800-962-6177 as soon as possible. Provide your order number and our Bookfair ID number, and the representative will manually add your order to our Bookfair sales total. • Please note that the purchase of some items such as gift cards, textbooks, magazines, etc. is excluded from Bookfair sales totals. For more information, check the FAQs on the www.bn.com/bookfairs home page. Please feel free to forward this email to any family and friends who would like to support our Bookfair as well. Thanks again for supporting our Bookfair! Sincerely, Anthony Rizzo Assistant Principal, IA
