SCRIP PROGRAM
Promotion for April to July
Need extra grocery money? Place a Panther Paw Scrip order and be entered to win a $25 gift card to Springboro IGA. Place a minimum Scrip order of $50 for the months of April, May June and July and pay by check. Your $50 order can be to any vendor(s) it must add up to $50. You will be entered in a drawing for a $25 IGA gift card.
To be eligible for this drawing you must:
Pay for your Scrip order by check for the months of April, May, June and July
and

Checks are due to our P.O. Box by the first of each month. Winner will be announced in August. Not sure how to change your payment method from 'credit card' to 'check'? Contact us at Boroscrip@boroscrip.com and we will do it for you.
We had a great response to the Target Cards last month. They are available in $25 and $100 denominations. Please consider paying by check if you order Target gift cards as the contribution that Target offers to Scrip will not cover the credit card fees Scrip has to pay. Want to change your payment from credit card to check? Just change the box that is checked on your order page that you order from. Can't figure it out? Email us at BoroScrip@boroscrip.com
If you pay by credit card please take a minute to check to see if your credit card information on file with Scrip is up to date. We accept Visa, Master Card and Discover. You can check this once you log in. Thanks.
If you would like to pick up your order instead of having it mailed to you please respond to this email and make arrangements. This also saves Scrip money and allows more money to go back to Springboro PTO's.
