Scrip
What is Scrip?
Scrip is a gift card that spends just like cash. It doesn’t cost you anything
extra and no fees are deducted off of the card. A portion of your purchases are
donated back to the school. It's a cost-free way to give to Meadows!
How do I use Scrip to make money for Meadows?
Two Ways:
- Purchase Gift Cards on
shopwithscrip.com and they're delivered to you. Use those cards to
purchase goods and services and a portion of that money goes to Meadows.
- Register your debit and credit cards on
www.escrip.com. When you use those cards at participating merchants, a
portion of that money also goes to Meadows.
- Make money for Meadows in other ways, like shopping at Ralphs, Manhattan
Village, Office Depot, Target and Albertsons.
The new online scrip systems are fast and easy and will help save time,
money and the environment by eliminating paper scrip order forms. Keep reading

There are three ways to pay for your scrip cards at ShopWithScrip:
- Check: This is simple, but less preferred. At the checkout page you'll be
able to print a form that must be delivered to the school with a check. Make
your check out to Meadows PTA. Your
check must be received before the due date or you won't get your order.
- Credit Card: Do this just like you would for a check, but write your CC
number and expiration date on your printed order form. VISA or MasterCard only.
- PrestoPay: This makes ordering a snap, and there are no paper forms or
checks needed! Enter your bank account information
when you register. ShopWithScrip will transfer two small amounts of money into
your account, then contact you to verify them. Once that's done, you can order
online and pay instantly every time you order. It's accurate, fast and easy. (A small 39 cent
convenience fee applies for each order.)
Scrip orders will be delivered to your child's class.
