You can then track our earnings, receive informative emails and participate in chances to earn extra points just by watching a video or entering a contest. Of course, clipping the BoxTops are what you can do everyday! The site contains a list of all products that have BoxTops. Just clip them out, save them in a ziplock bag/envelope and have your child bring them to school. There is a BoxTops dropbox in the lobby off the 17th Street entrance.

You can also go to the Marketplace and do all of your holiday shopping through the site. It will direct you right to your shopping site and we will then earn points from your order.
