The school year is now in full swing in many parts of the country. Are you collecting Box Tops for Education?
Congrats to commenter #49, Jennifer, the winner selected at random!
A small act of service than can have a big impact on your child’s school, Box Tops are a simple way to give more. Especially in this economy, where many schools are forced to cut back, even clipping just a few Box Tops a year makes a difference. Over 90,000 schools participate in the program, public and private alike.
The little pink tabs are on many products that my family uses on a regular basis. Box Tops is partnered with several brands under General Mills, which is one of the reasons I wanted to visit their headquarters last week.
They have also recently partnered with Avery, an office supply brand. Be sure to look for Box Tops on school supplies you may be buying anyway!
I love that there are always coupons for products with Box Tops, including printables right on their website!
Many items currently have BONUS Box Tops, including Pillsbury Toaster Strudel and Totinos Pizza Rolls. I received a Box Tops prize pack like the one pictured above, and thanks to My Blog Spark, I have 1 to giveaway to a lucky reader!
The “Top This” prize pack includes:
- (1) free coupon for Toaster Strudel
- (1) free coupon for Totino´s Pizza Rolls
- a Box Tops For Education certificate worth 10 bonus Box Tops
- some great Avery school supplies for your family including a binder, glue sticks and highlighters
Bonus: you can clip up to 14 Box Tops coupons from the products in your prize pack!

My favorite snack as a kid – I remember my mom making ham and cheese rolls (Carl Budding ham rolled up with a layer of cream cheese). I’d watch Sesame Street and eat them! Fantastic!

Okay, I know how weird this sounds – but a Ritz cracker with a piece of cheese on top … and a pickle slice on top of that. Yeah, I know … but try it sometime! It’s actually delicious!
My sisters and I always enjoyed grilled cheese sandwiches after school! mmm =]

I grew up in the 80’s and apparently my mom had no idea what the word nutrition ment. I generally had a 32 oz suicide soda and a KING size candy bar. Ah, the good old days.

Definitely peanut butter toast, or dry cereal. Both of which are my pregnancy cravings, weird. Haha. Thanks!

Not that this is healthy at all, but I would put some peanut butter in a bowl and poor chocolate chips in it. Mix it all up and it was oh sooo good.

Peanut butter & apples or if we had celery that week I’d eat celery & peanut butter. I also loved celery with cream cheese. Mom was a health nut so we always had cut celery & carrots in the fridge & a variety of fresh fruits. Gramma made the best homemade granola, I loved it when we’d drizzle honey on top or put it into a yogurt!
I loved cream cheese and jelly on rice cakes! Yes dorky but only loved it when mommy made it for us!! YUMMO!
I follow you via email- thank you and God bless!

I remember eating Aunt Jemima blueberry pancakes when I was a kid! I don ‘t know if they make those anymore — all mixed, ready to pour.
a piece of bread, spread ketchup on it & then a slice of cheese, microwave until cheese melts…a quick mini-pizza.
Now that I’m an adult it doesn’t sound very yummy especially when compared to real pizza.

My brother and I walked from school to either my mom’s job or the library after school. We would stop at Arby’s on the way there and either get a cherry turnover or curly fries. Not the healthiest snack in the world! I am now wondering why my mom didn’t pack us a snack in our backpacks. Hmmmm.
