BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION NEWS!
We are very excited to share that St. Peter is one of one hundred schools to win 10,000 bonus box tops which translates to a $1,000.00 bonus! A special thank you goes out to everyone who linked their Walmart app to their BTFE app! Every time a purchase was made in this manner automatically entered us into the sweepstakes. We hope this propels us to more participation in this wonderful, yet easy to use program. It costs you nothing to participate. We earn money every time you scan a receipt with an eligible product on it. If you are already participating, be sure to scan your receipts this summer. BTFE always run some wonderful back-to-school bonuses that will really increase purchases. If you do not yet participate, it is easy. Just download the BTFE app from the App Store. When prompted, enter our unique code of RKJ22BC8 to earn 25 bonus box tops when you scan your first receipt. You don’t even need to know if you made a qualifying purchase because the app will find them. I am still sometimes surprised to find I purchased something that qualifies! Just get in the habit of scanning all receipts! You can do it within 2 weeks of purchase, but I find it easier to scan when I come home with my purchases. Thank you to everyone who participated. We earned $1,500.00 in 10 months! We are edging close to $23,000 lifetime earnings for St. Peter.
