>>>> To All
>>>> I am not sure how much you know about the Scrip program, so I will give you information as if you know very little.
>>>> Scrip is another word for money.  So this opportunity is to replace our cash with a gift card to purchase everything from gas, department stores, restaraunts, drug stores, auto service, auto parts, hotels, airlines, some supermarkets, sams club, hair cutters, QVC and so much more.  Our state affiliate makes money from every card purchased.  Each card has a different amount of rebate for us anywhere from 1.74% to 18% and sometimes more.  The person buying the card pays the face value and 0.15 for their total order as a transaction fee.  The cards are delivered to Shelbi and we then sort and mail them out to everyone.  The affililate is charged approx $7.00 Fedex fee for the shipment, so we do have a small expense with each order.  However, the orders that some of us place net at least that much in rebates. The more people that participate, the more money our affiliate makes.  It is a wonderful ongoing fundraiser. The Capital Chapter has signed up for their own account so we can order gift cards as door prizes or to use for our chapter at Walmart, etc.

>>>> Example of some gift cards:
>>>> Ace Hardware  4%, Advance Auto Parts 7%,  American Airline, 8%, American Express 1.25%, Andersons 4%, Applebees 8%, Arbys 8%, Lane Bryant  6%
>>>> ATT prepaid card 20%. Aavis Car Rental 8%, Barnes and Noble 9%, Bath & Body Works 13%, Best Buy 3%, Best Cuts 8%, Bloomingdales 12%, Bob Evans 10%, BP gas 1.5%, Burger King 8%, Burlington Coat Factory 8%, Carnival Cruise Lines 8%, Cinemark Theaters 4%, Comfort Inn 4%, Country Buffet 4%, Cracker Barrel 9%, CVS 6%, Clarion Hotels 4%, Dell Computer 4%, Denny's 7%, Dominos Pizza 8%, Donatos Pizza 10%, Dress Barn 8%, Family Video 12%, Famous Hair 8%, Fashion Bug 6%, See.s Candies 20%, Sally Beauty Supply 12%, Starbucks 7%,  T J Maxx 7%, Walgreens 6%, Walmart 2%, Wendy's 4%, Zappos.com 8%.  These are just a sampling of the retailers listed.  At times, as Shelbi sent out recently, there are specials when retailers will increase their rebates to us for a limited time. When you order plastic cards, pay attention to whether they are reloadable so you can ask the store to give your card back after using it.  Bath and Body has a habit of keeping your card without asking you, now I have to order another one so I can reload it next time!
