| Purchasing Scrip CAN make a difference! |
| Do you think $200 worth of Scrip per month is too much to buy? Here is an example of how fast $200 per month can add up quickly for a family of four: |
|
Item |
Amount |
Percentage Earned by School |
Amount
Earned |
| Groceries | $ 100.00 | 05% | $ 5.00 |
| Gas | $ 20.00 | 02% | $ 0.40 |
| Pizza | $ 10.00 | 10% | $ 1.00 |
| Rent a movie | $ 10.00 | 07% | $ 0.70 |
| East Fast Food | $ 20.00 | 09% | $ 1.80 |
| Go to local Restaurant | $ 40.00 | 10% | $ 4.00 |
| Total | $ 200.00 | $ 12.90 | |
|
If only

If only
$100 |
If only
$50 |
|
| Amount Earned by School | $ 12.90 | $ 6.45 | $ 3.23 |
| Braelinn has about 400 families: | 400 | 400 | 400 |
| Total revenue for the month would be: | $ 5,160.00 | $ 2,580.00 | $ 1,292.00 |
| Total revenue for the school year (9 months): | $ 46,440.00 | $ 23,220.00 | $ 11,628.00 |
| The above is just an example of some items you can buy with Scrip. Prescriptions, clothing, shoes, presents, ice cream, educational items, etc. can also be purchased with Scrip. So why not use Scrip instead of your cash or check at the participating stores? The small effort on you part helps our children have a better school and does not cost you anymore than what you already spend. | |||
