Take the attached flyer, or an electronic copy of the form on your phone, to present, and 10% of your order goes back to the band!

- Schnucks Rewards: Schnucks has a reward program that earns money for Edison. Go to this link for more information http://www.escrip.com/merchants/identity/schnucks/index.jsp
Edison PTSA gets money from this and it's an easy way to help our school. Sign up or if you have a card make sure you tell them you want your rewards to go to Edison Middle School PTSA. This program does not interfere with the gas rewards program.
