Amidst vacations and excursions to the beach, the summer months also mean wedding season is here. Families can continue to use ShopWithScrip for all their summer activities, including giving scrip gift cards as presents to happy newlyweds! Families can also easily reload ShopWithScrip gift cards they’ve previously purchased to help them earn at the pump and at the grocery store during the summer months. Although summer normally means taking a well-deserved break from school, it’s never too early for families to think about back-to-school shopping, especially families with college freshmen looking for dorm essentials. ShopWithScrip all summer long!
ScripNow, Reload, and ecards are always available with PrestoPay! If you’re looking for physical cards, ILS will have one opportunity during the summer (see dates below). If you have any further questions, please contact our ShopWithScrip coordinator, Mike Riddell,
riddm1230@gmail.com
, or the
school office
