Free Frazil Friday is back for the second year in a row! The fun starts on June 7th!

The heat of summer is coming and Freezing Point, the maker of Frazil slushies, has a refreshing deal for you. They’re inviting you to cool down this summer with one FREE small Frazil slushie every single Friday in June!

Free Frazil Friday first made an appearance in 2023. It was wildly successful, but only offered in Utah, Nevada, and Idaho. Luckily, the deal was such a hit that in 2024, Free Frazil Friday is going nationwide!

This promotion will be available at over 100 convenience store chains and you can find one near you using Frazil’s location finder. You can also request to be notified of a location near you.

This tasty promotion kicks off on June 7th and runs through June 28th.

To redeem the offer, visit a participating convenience store and fill up a small-sized slushie and bring it to the counter where the cashier will ring it up for FREE.

What is a Frazil?

A Frazil is a popular slushie drink like Slurpee and Icee, and it’s found in convenience stores. What sets Frazil apart from the competition is its unique flavor lineup! Some of the popular Frazil flavors include Tiger’s Blood, Georgia Peach, Bermuda Triangle, Rock N Roll, Horchata, and Wildberry.

There are about 30,000 Frazil machines scattered across the nation and there might be one in your area!

If you want to try out these unusual flavors, there is no better time than on a Friday this June. The company expects to hand out MILLIONS of cups of Frazil over the summer and one might as well be to you!

Grab this refreshing freebie while you can!

Looking for DIY teacher gifts? This printable teacher appreciation card is something they’ll love!

School will be ending before you know it! ☀️

Print our adorable teacher appreciation card printable! They make easy DIY teacher gifts that they’ll use and actually love receiving!

In case you didn’t know, teachers LOVE Papermate Flair Pens!

In fact, they’re one of the top gifts teachers themselves said they love receiving! With handwritten cards to end their year being the top most meaningful gift idea, it got me thinking…

Flair pens and a cute card would go great together! 🤩

Plus, these DIY teacher gifts could also be a super affordable idea when you buy a pack of Flair Pens and break them up to make multiple gifts! 🙌🏼

These pens are available at Walmart or Amazon.

I’m so proud of the play on words I came up with for this teacher appreciation card printable!

“It’s time to say Flair-well!” 🤩

What could be more perfect than a cute card to say farewell to the school year (hello, summer 🤩), some pens they’ll actually use next year, and a special handwritten note from your kiddo? Regardless of the age of your kiddo or the grade your teacher teaches, we know any seasoned teacher will love these! 😍

I used my Cricut Joy to make these cards, so the process of creating these personalized DIY teacher gifts couldn’t be simpler if you already own this machine! Even better, I’ve already created the Flair-well card template for you so you can start printing and cutting your cards with little effort! 🙌🏼

If you want to use my teacher appreciation card printable using your Cricut Joy, all you’ll need is some Cricut Joy card inserts, Cricut Joy pens or markers, and a pack of Flair pens to complete your gift!

Don’t have a Cricut Joy?

No problem, my friend! I know if you don’t already have a Cricut Joy at home, chances are you aren’t going to buy a Cricut Joy just for this gift idea. So I also created a totally FREE printable full of Flair-well gift tags you can print and cut out on your own. 🙌🏼

They’ll make the perfect-sized gift tags to be tied to a group of Flair pens or onto a cute jar. This gift idea will be even more affordable if you skip the Cricut cards and there’s still a little room on the back for a sweet sentiment.

It doesn’t get any easier than that! 👏🏻

Ready to make these super cute DIY teacher gifts?! 

Here’s how to easily make your own DIY teacher gifts using our FREE printables!

Cricut Joy Flair-well Cards - DIY Teacher Gifts

Print

Supplies Needed

• Cricut Joy machine
• Our FREE Flair-well card template
• Cricut Joy Card Inserts
• Cricut Joy pens & markers
• Papermate Flair Pens (not to be substituted)

Directions

1

Download our FREE Cricut Joy card template. (You’ll need the Cricut Design Space app on your laptop or phone to do this.)

2

Load your Cricut Joy with the tools required to start making your cards. (Mine prompted me to load markers & pens first, then the cutting tool).

3

Assemble your card by removing it from your Cricut Joy mat and add the card insert. (Mine are gold.) Then add a special note to your teacher inside!

4

Gift your card with a pack of Papermate Flair Pens (teacher’s #1 pen choice!). Or break them up into groups to make these DIY teacher gifts even more affordable!

(My kiddos happened to know their teacher’s favorite colors so they were able to split a pack of Flair pens and we made 3 gifts out of one pack of pens!)

Well, Hipsters, we can’t believe another school year is about to come to an end! 🤯

I hope you loved these easy and affordable DIY teacher gifts! (I sure know how much they’ll be appreciated and loved by the teachers lucky enough to receive them!) 🤩

And if you gift one of our free printables this year, snap a picture and share it with us on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok! We absolutely love seeing and hearing from you all! ❤️

Needs some teacher gift card ideas? Show your gratitude with these DIY teacher appreciation gift card holders!

Need a teacher appreciation gift idea?

If so, consider making a cute Teacher Appreciation gift card holder using these free printable designs! This is a thoughtful gift for Teacher Appreciation Day which is Tuesday, May 7th! You can also gift it during the holidays or as a sweet sentiment at the end of the school year.

Teachers put an incredible amount of time and energy into our kids. We appreciate them so much! Even a small gift like this can make a teacher’s day!

Teacher gift cards are always appreciated!

Over the years, we’ve had many teachers (who are also Hip2Save readers) comment they appreciate any gesture. Gift cards make such great gifts for teachers because they can treat themselves to anything.

Whether it’s a coffee, lunch, or perhaps a mini shopping spree with a Target gift card, they’ll love it. If you happen to know their favorites, you can even customize your gift card selection personally!

Embellishing a DIY gift card holder can be a fun activity the kids can help with!

By the end of the year, my kids usually know which stores and food their teachers enjoy and that’s where we come up with teacher gift card ideas. For instance, we have one teacher who’s obsessed with Starbucks, one who loves to read (Barnes & Noble, here we come), and another who loves Chipotle. If you’re not sure, there’s no harm in sending a quick email to ask!

As a former homeroom parent, I recommend sending something similar to this TEACHER FAVORITES questionnaire to my teachers. It was very helpful during Teacher Appreciation Week to know what each enjoyed!
