Why order SCRIP?
Scrip is "subsitute money". You purchase gift cards at face value and use them like you would cash, These gift cards are available from your favorite restaurants, retailers, grocery stores, gas stations and entertainment.
Purchase cards for places you frequent like Outback, Dillards, Sweetbay, Mobil and AMC Theaters. (See list for all retailers.) The retailers give a small discount.
This discount is given to non-profit organizations like St. Stephens. To encourage parents to use the program, SSCS offers half the discount to the parents to reduce or eliminate your child's book fee. Are you planning any home improvements? New carpet for $3,000 at Lowes at 4% would earn you $60 toward book fees and another $60 for the school. How much do you spend annually at the grocery store or gas station? Those purchases alone could probably eliminate your book fee!
It is very simple! The school's orders will be gathered and processed every 2 weeks on Tuesday and delivered via your kids on Thursday. The order deadline is 11am on Tuesdays. (See below and our school calendar for order dates.) We will also carry inventory which can be purchased on Thursday's delivery day from 2-3pm. Watch for inventory sales at the church! Scrip cards make great birthday gifts not to mention quick and easy Christmas shopping!
