Generating $250 of rebates for the school is a very achievable goal, but you need to make Scrip a habit if you want to get there without breaking a sweat. Below are a few tips and tricks to help you maximize your rebates.
Shop the Bonus Offers
Each week there are a handful of bonus offers--retailers offering a temporarily higher rebate. "Scrip BonusFest" days occur frequently and include many more retailers offering even bigger bonuses. Shop these bonuses to earn your rebate even faster.

Plan Ahead
It's hard to remember to use Scrip when you're next in line at the store checkout (though the RaiseRight app has come to the rescue there several times!). Here are some tips to help you make sure you have Scrip on hand when you need it.
  • Know your shopping habits. We all buy groceries. And eventually our car's gas tank needs to be filled. Baby siblings need diapers. Luckily most of the larger grocery stores and gas stations participate in Scrip, so do Amazon and Target. Look at your last few receipts to figure out what your average visit costs and load at least that amount onto your Scrip card. Reload makes it easy to make sure you always have enough Scrip on hand.

  • Pre-purchase the Scrip Gift Cards you need to cover gifts for the next few months. Check your Calendar for birthdays, and other gift-giving occasions. Whether you make the card the gift, or use it to shop for something else, you come out ahead with no last-minute scramble.

  • Look for big opportunities to cash in. Planning some home improvements? Need a new appliance? Use Scrip to fund major expenses like these and you'll meet your goal quickly.
Make it a Family (and Friends) Effort
Grandparents, God parents, aunts, uncles, neighbors... ALL are welcome to ShopWithScrip.
  • Invite them to create an account at ShopWithScrip.com (enrollment code is 271A869545L6). Make sure they enter your oldest student's name and grade so their purchases can be properly counted.

  • Ask them if they need you to order any gift cards on their behalf
You now know all the basics about participating in Scrip to support our school! Scrip is a very powerful tool because you are doing this sort of shopping anyway. It just means developing a few new habits to ensure you're shopping with Scrip whenever possible.

The best part of Scrip? If you exceed your $250 goal, OLMC will split the extra with you in the form of a tuition credit. More money for valuable school programs and more money staying in your own pocket. We ALL win when we maximize our Scrip usage.

As always, if you have questions, please reply to this email--we're here to help!

In gratitude,
The OLMC Scrip Team
