What Scrip is. Through
this program, bulk quantities of gift certificates/cards
from grocery and retail stores are purchased at a discount
by Trinity. The certificates are then sold to participating
families at face value. The discount received is retained by
the school.
How it works - example:
Family goes to the Scrip website by 9:00AM Monday and place
an order and
payment for $100 in Jewel certificates.
This particular retailer offers a 4% credit back to the
school on all purchases.
Scrip will then, independent from the school, process this
order and payment
and deliver the gift cards and/or
certificates to the school.
On Thursday of that week, that family will receive onsite at
Trinity their
$100 in Jewel certificates.
Scrip will then credit Trinity directly
with the 4% discount earning (or $4.00)
from the family’s
Jewel order.
Get this! If a family did this each week of
the school year, that would be an
total amount for the
school year of $208 just on groceries! Combine these
earnings with purchases made at hundreds of participating
merchants available
through SCRIP and the earnings can
really add up!
