Halloween is Around the Corner - does your kid have a costume?

Are you about to be caught off guard with Halloween again this year?  Guess what?  You can solve that problem and help raise money for St. Edmunds! How is that possible?  Very easy: just shop online with eBoxtops! Its just like the old fashioned pink boxtops that we have been clipping for years...except its digital!  It's as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Go to the Boxtops Website and create an account: www.btfe.com.  
-click 'sign up'
-find our school (enter 15217, then scroll down the list until you find it)
-fill in the boxes to create an account

2. Go Shopping! Click the 'EARN ONLINE' tab at the top of the web page
-type in 'power ranger costume' and solve your problem!
-or click 'See All Participating Stores' to find Halloween Express or your favorite store

3. Repeat!
-Whenever you shop online, go to btfe.com first, then shop from a vendor using this site
-The number of eBoxtops varies from 1 to 10 per $10.  For example, Target.com gives 1.5 per $10.  So if you spend $100, that's 15 eboxtops, or $1.5 for the school!  (1.5% for all you smart guys out there!)

If you have any trouble, shoot me an email and I'll try to help you sort it out.



The fine print:

Here's how it works: the eBoxtops site puts a 'cookie' on your computer.  When you click on a store from the eBoxtops site, your browser will redirect to that store.  The store website will see the cookie when you check out and send the points to eBoxtops.  There is no charge to you, and it is on top of any other discounts or credit card points programs you might participate in. 

Right now (10/9/2013) there are just a couple SEA people participating.  However, I think it is a great deal.  Look forward to more helpful reminders about how everyone can use this program.
