What Is Scrip? Scrip is a term that means “substitute money”. When you purchase Scrip, you’re purchasing negotiable gift certificates and prepaid cards that are used just like cash. You can use Scrip to purchase everyday expenses like food, gas, clothing, and other essentials, and with every purchase, you earn revenue for our organization to support technology and PLTW at Lincoln.H
How does Scrip generate revenue for our school? The Great Lakes Scrip Center acts on behalf of churches, schools and other non profit organizations to purchase large amounts of Scrip from grocery stores, department stores, and other retailers. Because the Scrip is purchased with cash up front, the participating retailers offer a substantial discount. Our organization buys the scrip from Great Lakes Scrip Center at a discount, and re-sells the certificates to families like yours for full face value. The discount from two to fifteen percent or more – is Lincoln’s revenue.
Remember, If you purchase a $10.00 Kwik Trip card you get the full amount. So spend $10.00 and get $10.00. Use SCRIP to purchase things you would usually purchase with cash or check.
