Next Day Air

If you are running low on merchandise, we will send additional gift items via Next Day Air with delivery by 1:00 PM at no cost to you. Re-orders can be easily submitted through the online cash register system.

Natalie’s Elf Shelf® Holiday Store always covers 100% of shipping costs.

If you have hosted a holiday shop before, it is crucial that you include your previous year’s total sales on your 2026 sign-up form. This allows us to start you off with plenty of merchandise, so you won’t need to stress about re-ordering.

Our goal is to make sure you begin your holiday shop fully stocked and confident — no panic re-orders needed! 🎄✨

Natalie's Favorite early sign up bonus!

Gift Bucks is our financial assistance program designed to help students who may not have the money to shop in our Holiday Shop.

Gift Bucks is one of our Early Sign-Up Bonuses and must be selected in order to receive it. When you choose Gift Bucks as one of your early sign-up bonuses, your school will receive $200. This will be uploaded into your cash register system to use.

Since we offer two bonuses for signing up early, you also have the option to double your Gift Bucks — increasing the total to $400!
