My Experience with My First Purchase on Box Tops for Education Marketplace

I thought I’d try the Box Tops for Education Marketplace out for myself.  The process was smooth, and it only took a few minutes to enroll.  On an electronics purchase at Barnes and Noble, I earned 6 box tops for each $10 I spent (the deals differ for each retailer).  I spent $200, so that means my daughter’s school earned 120 box tops, each worth 10 cents, for a total of $12.00!  Wow!  SO…if 1/2 of the 700 families in my daughter’s school made similar purchases, that would mean $4,200 for her school!!  That’s what I call easy money for a good cause!
