Help my daughter, Jess Please.

Post by mommar »

Some of you know my daughter, Jess (of course some don't) She is an elementary school teacher and her school is having a competition to win and I-PAD and she wants it! The class that collects the most "boxtops for education" wins the i-pad for their classroom. Your help in the compteition will be greatly appreciated. (ask for your friends' box-tops too please). Please message me if you have boxtops that you are willing to send to her and need my address. She needs to have them in her classroom by Jan. 31
Thanks Mo

Looks like I need to start collecting again

I believe they are on General Mills things and Pillsbury things. If you look on the boxes or containers (I'm thinking of the Pillbury Grands biscuits for example) you will see a small rectangle that is white and pink and will say "Boxtops for Education" or something like that. You save those little stamp looking things and the company will give the school 10 cents for each one they send in.

My kids save them for their school and one of our schools still sends in Campbell's Soup labels. I remember doing that when I was in elementary school :)
well, ummmmmmm, yah, I guess I better come up with something witty to put in this spot since everyone is reading it.......

Thanks, yes they are on some assorted items from, Pillsbury General Mills, Avery, Green Giant, Hefty, ZipLoc, Betty Crocker, Nestle Juicy Juices, Land o Lakes, & Yoplait, Cottonel, Scott, Kleenex and maybe a few other random items.

Here is a complete list of items with the "boxtops for education" ....You just cut off the little emblem (usually pink blue and white of some sort) with the words "boxtops for education" and send them to us. Theres a picture of one at the top of the item list to the left.

If anyone is reading this in between Thanksgiving preparations, remember to save your boxtops for Jess, you must have them on something you're using between tonight and tomorrow! [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

Thank You! :)

Sorry man, they go to my Wife's school. :lol:
They got somewhere around $1500 last time they turned them in or what ever they do. Pretty cool program that flies under the radar.
