Hey Everyone!  I haven't been active in a LONG time.  Three knee surgeries later, I'm finally back on my feet again! (LOL, didn't even mean that joke)  For those of you that send in Box Tops, can you write to General Mills and tell them how disgusted you are that they wouldn't extend the deadline for submissions for the schools affected by Hurricane Sandy.  I am from Long Island and we were out of school for nine days.  When I finally returned to school, I tried submitting them and explaining our school's situation and they wouldn't even hear my story.  I had over $1000 in Box Tops to submit and now have to wait for a check in April instead of December.  :(  I'm sure many schools were affected by this and with a company as large as General Mills, they should be able to adjust for that.

 

Thanks!

 

(In addition to Box Tops, Campbell Labels for Education and Coke Rewards, my school just started collecting "Kelloggs Family Rewards".  They seem to be brand new, but have some great play ground equipment as rewards.  )
