In January, we will be kicking off our next Box Tops collection contest. It will run from Monday, January 12th through Friday, February 13th (5 weeks). It will be a “Box Tops Snowball Battle”! So over the holiday break, be sure to keep clipping those Box Tops and get ready for another exciting contest in January!
Our school receives money based on the number of Box Tops we collect and submit each year. Last year, our school collected 30,000 Box Tops and earned over $3000 through this program! With your help, we can earn even more for our school this year.
There are 4 easy ways to earn cash for our school:
1) Clip Box Tops from your Favorite Grocery Products. Look for the pink Box Tops coupon on brands like Cheerios®, Betty Crocker®, Huggies®, Cottonelle®, Pillsbury®, Ziploc®, Kleenex®, Hefty® and many more. Each Box Top coupon is worth 10¢ to our school, up to $20,000. Students can turn in their Box Tops to their teacher. If every student turned in just 50 Box Tops, that would mean $3750 for our school!
2) Participate in Local Store Promotions. Area stores like Publix, Sam’s and BJ’s periodically offer promotions for earning Bonus Box Tops.
3) Sign Up at http://www.btfe.com/2008. Earn 5 Bonus Box Tops for our school just for signing up. Enter your information and designate Carrollwood Elementary PTA as the school you are supporting. You will receive a confirmation email after you sign up. Simply click where it says “Click here to claim 5 bonus box tops for your school”. Encourage your friends and family to sign up too! Once you sign up, you will receive a monthly email with recipes and coupons for participating products.
4) Shop Online through the Box Tops Marketplace. Start every online shopping trip by going to http://www.btfe.com/marketplace. Visit all of your favorite stores like JCPenney, Lands' End, Oriental Trading, Red Envelope, Target, Sears, Walmart, Office Depot and more. Over 60 popular online stores have agreed to donate up to 8% of your qualifying purchase to our school, up to $20,000. Add this link to your "favorites" and earn money for our school every time you shop online, at no additional cost to you.
The “Back to School with Box Tops” Collection Contest is underway. Over 200 collection sheets (5000 Box Tops) have been turned in already! What a great start toward reaching our goal for the year of 35,000 Box Tops (just 50 Box Tops per student)!
The winner of the ‘early bird drawing’ was Gracie Zas – 5th Grade. She won a movie night gift basket filled with popcorn, and candy and gift cards to Blockbusters and Pizza Hut. Congratulations Gracie!
Please continue to clip Box Tops and send in your completed collection sheets for this contest. Additional collection sheets are available in the school office next to the PTA bin. Remember, the more sheets you turn in, the greater your chances are of winning one of the grand prizes! Turn in your completed sheets to your teacher. Your teacher will drop them in the big pink Box Tops box in the office. The last day to turn in collection sheets for this contest will be Wednesday, October 15th. The final drawing will take place on the morning show on Monday, 10/20. There will be one winner drawn from each grade level. The possible prizes are… a Webkinz, a gumball machine, a gift cards to either Barnes and Nobles, Game Stop, Toys R Us or Muvico Theatres or two free passes to Lowry Park Zoo!
