(Closed) Giveaway: Safeway Stores $25 Gift Card and 50 Bonus Box Tops! (Includes Tom Thumb, Randalls, Vons, and Genuardi’s)

My son has radar when it comes to finding those little pink Box Tops for Education badges–he never misses one.  We keep them in a plastic holder on our fridge and turn them into his pre-school from time to time (when the plastic holder begins to overflow!)   That’s why I’m excited to share this next giveaway!

The Safeway family of stores (which includes Dominick´s, Tom Thumb, Randalls, Vons, and Genuardi´s) is making it simple to give back with “2 Ways 2 Earn” cash for your schools with Box Tops for Education and the “10% Goes Back to Schools” program.

Box Tops for Education has already given away over $320 million to help the more than 69 thousand schools participating.  Earning Box Tops is even easier this year with four new brands participating in the program: Progresso Soup, Totino´s Pizza, Betty Crocker Cake Mixes and Gold Medal Flour.

To help your local schools even further just look for the “10% Goes Back to Schools” yellow school bus tags on over 2,000 of your favorite items throughout Safeway from August 11th – September 14th. When you purchase participating products with your Club Card, Safeway will give 10% of the purchase price to the local school of your choice.

Here´s how it works:

• Check your receipt from August 11 – September 14. The total will be updated each time you shop.
• Beginning on September 18, a redemption code will be printed at the bottom of your receipt.
• Visit backtoschools.escrip.com before October 13 to choose your favorite participating local school, then simply enter your redemption code to make your donation.
