Memorial School PTO Scrip Procedures
1. Sign up using the enrollment form attached to begin the program. Send it in with your first order.
2. Each family will be given a manila envelope which will be used to send in the order form and check for each order and then returned to the family with the scrips inside and a new order form. Please reuse the envelope each time you order. (You will receive the envelope after you send in your enrollment form and place your first order.) Extra order forms are in the office.
3. On the order form be sure
that you do the following:
· Put the quantity number
in the correct line for the scrip you are ordering
· Write in the total
money for each line
· Add in the “other”
section any additional scrips that you need that are not on the short list
form but may be found on the longer list or on the website at www.glscrip.com
· Fill in the box on
the bottom of the second page that includes student’s name, room number,
phone number, total # of scrips, total payment enclosed.
· Be sure you write a
check or money order to Memorial School PTO. We will be depositing that
check within a day so that it can be cleared when we place the order.
· Check off method of
delivery. You can pick up your scrips at the main office at school, have
them sent home with your child, or give us a self-addressed stamped envelope
and we will mail it to you.
· Double-check your form
for accuracy and your math too!!
4. Orders will be placed bi-weekly during the school year except for normally scheduled vacations. Late orders will be placed on the next order 2 weeks later, so be sure you meet the deadline – there will be no wiggle-room. Orders will be due by 9am on the due date and can be sent in with your child to be placed in the PTO mailbox. The weekly bulletin will give you the order due dates and pick-up dates and also information about special increases in profits!!
5. Each store has their own policy on change back from scrips. Find out before paying for your purchase. Some retailers have specific restrictions, see full list on www.glscrip.com for details under the “retailers” tab. Remember that Massachusetts has a seven year gift certificate law that forces retailers to allow use of the gift certificates for that length of time without penalty (even if that conflicts with the retailer’s policy).
6. The gift certificates are
the same as cash, so treat them as such. Memorial School PTO cannot be
held responsible for lost or misplaced scrips.
