Boscov’s “Friends Helping Friends” Shopping Pass Fundraiser

This is a fundraiser the troop has done in the past.  The troop sells 25% off shopping passes good at a special sale in October at Boscov’s.  The passes cost $5.00 each and the troop keeps the entire amount. The passes will be available in September.

                                                                                       

Car Wash

There are several car washes planned throughout the spring & summer. This is a great fundraiser for the troop – there is very little cost and the potential for a lot of profit!  All we need is scout power!  Dates will be posted for the 2008 year very soon – remember to advertise it to all your friends, family, neighbors!

Holiday Wreath Sale

The wreath sale runs during November with delivery early December.  The 2006 fundraiser was coordinated by Mr. & Mrs. McCoy.  It was an 18” fresh green wreath with a red velvet bow.  Keep your list of customers from year to year – repeat buyers make it easier to have a successful fundraiser!

 

Luminary Sale in December

Luminaries are White paper bags with sand in the base as a weight and a votive candle.  They are placed along the curb and lit for Christmas Eve, Hanukkah or New Years Eve.  They are sold in packs of twelve. 

 

 

Inkjet Cartridge & Cell Phone Recycling (click here for more detail)

We will be collecting used inkjet printer cartridges and cell phones/PDA’s for recycling.  We will receive cash for every one we recycle thru Eco-Phones.  Scouts will receive credit in their account for all inject cartridges and/or phones they bring in.  Look for the recycling bins at regular troop meetings.  For more information see:

Redner's “SAVE-A-TAPE” Program

Use the "Save-a tape program card" every time you shop at Redner's. Present your card to the cashier before you check out AND save your receipt tapes. Bring your tapes into the Troop Representative (Mrs. Mendenko) to be submitted for redemption. The Troop makes 1% off your totals (excluding milk and tobacco products and taxes). See me at the next meeting to get a card if you need one --- get family & friends to save for us too... I turn the tapes in every time we have collected more than $20.00 worth of rebate (that's $2,000.00 in qualifying sales totals). So far we have gotten in over $40.00 in rebates --- that’s two redemptions... Just for doing your normal weekly shopping - for stuff you were going to buy any way -- what could be more easy ??? So get your cards - use your cards & bring in your tapes to me...

 

Genuardis & Safeway “Community Cash Back” Program

If you have a Genuardi’s or Safeway Club Card you can register it online at:  http://www.escrip.com/ and choose Boy Scout Troop 182 as your Community Group.  We will automatically receive up to 3% cash back from the program!  Just for shopping as you normally do!  In fact, check out the Escript website to see what other Merchants you regularly deal with also subscribe to the program and add the troop to their Cash Back programs.

 

“Five Bucks A Box” Referral Program

This is a referral program where the troop will receive $5 for every box of steaks/chicken/etc. someone buys from Horizon Foods/McIntyre Distributors.  Pass out the referral cards to friends, family & neighbors.  When your referral calls to place an order, remind them to mention the troop and scouts name.  The order will be recorded and credit will come back to the troop and the scouts account. 

 

Pick up referral cards at troop meetings, from Mr. McIntrye or click here for more information!

 

Proposed Ideas:

·         Otis Spunkmeyer Snack Items – a fundraiser we’ve done in past years with great success – and very tasty too!

·         Candy Bar Sale – These are the oversized name brand candy bars sold for $1 each. They come in a case of 30 and can be taken with you to work, sports games, friends & family.

·         Sidewalk sale @ Wawa / Walmart / Acme – remember all those Girl Scouts selling cookies as you go in?  Well that’s the idea here – we could sell Candy Bars, our Christmas Wreaths, popcorn, any number of items.
