Questions and Answers
Q. What is SCRIP?
A. SCRIP is simply a merchant gift certificate or gift card that
has been purchased by The Eagle Rock Multi-Age (ERMA) PTA.
We purchase SCRIP either directly or through a National SCRIP
organization for a discount. Gift certificates/cards are identical
to those you could purchase directly from a merchant.
Q Who can purchase SCRIP?
A. Eagle Rock Multi-Age attendees and relatives of ERMA School
students are encouraged to consider purchasing SCRIP. Neighbors
and friends are also allowed. There will be a $30.00 NSF fee
on any check that doesn’t clear.
Q. How can I participate in the program?
A. The Eagle Rock Multi-Age benefit from the purchases that you
would ordinarily make at no additional cost to you! The more
SCRIP you purchase, the more funds you can earn for the ERMA PTA to provide additional
funds for the Eagle Rock Multi-Age program. There is no minimum or maximum
SCRIP purchase and no service charge or fee to you.
Q. Where can I use SCRIP?
A. SCRIP, from a participating merchant, can be redeemed at any
location nationwide.
Q. Which merchants are available through the SCRIP Program?
A. Just some of the merchants include Safeway, Ixtapa-Duvall, ,
Home Depot, Lowe’s Hardware, Burger King, Wendy’s,

R Us, Bon-Macy, JC Penny’s, Sears and many others. Check

account?
A. Some department stores will accept SCRIP as payment on your

to your account. Review scrip department store restrictions at http://www.glscrip.com.

purchase?
