This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of General Mills®. All opinions are my own.

For years I saw the little symbol on the corner of our cereal boxes but I didn’t know what it was all about, so I just tossed them in the trash. Not anymore! Now we look for the box tops for education labels when we’re shopping and even have a system for saving them.

What turned me on to the Box Tops for Education program? Learning how much of a difference those Box Tops make when it comes to saving money for schools. Each Box Top you clip earns ten cents for your child’s school. Those dimes add up to thousands of dollars and each school can receive up to $20,000 per school year. Just imagine what $20,000 could do to help your local school.

Did you know?

Box Tops for Education has contributed over $525 million to participating schools since it started in 1996. Over 80,000 K-8 schools participate in the program.

How it works?

It’s so easy! All you have to do is look for the Box Tops for Education logo on the products you buy for your family. Chances are you probably have a ton of them in your pantry right now. Lots of brands participate in the Box Tops program, including General Mills, Fiber One, Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, Totinos, and Yoplait just to name a few. Clip the Box Tops from the packaging and turn them in to your school, they’ll take care of the rest. So simple, and you’ll feel great knowing your doing something great for the kids in your community.

My boys love their Lucky Charms. We go through a ton of cereal in my house so it’s nice to know we’re earning money for books, supplies, playground equipment and other school needs simply by shopping for the things we love.

This is currently my favorite little not so guilty pleasure. These things are delicious! Earn bonus Box Tops by shopping at Walmart! Look for the exclusive 5 Box Tops labels on packaging. Learn more about box tops at Walmart.
