What is SCRIP?

The term "Scrip" is used to describe certificates that the school purchases at a discount and sells at face value for a profit. The discount ranges from 2% up to 25%. The Scrip certificates are actually store gift certificates and cost you nothing extra to buy. The scrip is used at the store in place of cash, checks or credit cards. Some can even be used for internet and catalog purchases. We currently have several local grocery stores and over 50 retailers in inventory. The best thing about Scrip is that is costs you nothing! It just requires a little bit of planning and a slight change in spending habits. Everybody has to buy groceries and gas... Children constantly need new clothes. There are many ways for you to use Scrip certificates for your needs! The sooner you begin participating, the more you will benefit.
