We love the Box Tops for Education program. Do you clip yours? I know sometimes they are hard to clip on the Pillsbury refrigerated dough products. They end up tearing and it really does annoy me that I’ve lost out on a Box Tops for the kids! But, this new program that Box Tops for Education has available is a great way to still save when mom has destroyed the Box Top :)
Register your participating Kroger Plus Card and your child’s school information at Reward Your School, you will receive virtual Box Tops for participating products. That certainly helps with tearing and cutting issues. Upon registration, you will even receive 5 Bonus Box Tops. So, not only can you save your Box Tops at home, you can also accumulate these *virtual* Bonus Box Tops with all benefits going to your child’s school!

I just recently started collecting Box Tops, so for now we keep them in a ziplock bag in our silverware drawer.

I keep a baggie in a drawer right next to the stove in our kitchen. I have a little organizer in the drawer, so it stays put. When it gets full, we just zip it up and send it to school. I like the wipes box idea though!

We have a sandwich bag hanigning from the fridge that holds our box tops.

I keep those and soup labels in the desk and give them to my neighbors kids in a baggie. I was the BTFE coordinator for our school from K-8th grade and the HS doesn’t do it. I actually enjoyed counting the boxtops. Miss it. Is there a 12 step program for old coordinators?

I keep mine in the corner of my cabinet by the glasses. Once it gets too messy, I gather them all into an envelope and give them to my aunt, a kindergarten teacher. Come to think of it, I should just put an envelope up there instead of having to collect them off the cabinet shelf!

I keep them in an envelope and tally them as I put each box top in the envelope. I like your idea of a wipes container though!
[Reply]
I can’t really say I keep them extremely organized. I have a small drawer in the kitchen where I store boxes of ziploc baggies and foil. I throw the boxtops in that drawer. When they have a large collection at school I put them in a baggie and send them in with the kids. I always know where they are so I guess it works for us.
[Reply]
We have a baggie for Boxtops in the drawer that most families call the “junk drawer” however, my 4 year old has re-named it the “important drawer” because he finds most of the things that he thinks are most valuable in that drawer!
[Reply]
I keep them in a big envelope then bring them into school to count them on the day the contest ends. I am a room mom so I count and bag them all every time there is a count in due.

We collect ours in a recipe box on top of the microwave.

We keep ours in a baggie in a kitchen drawer. Then when I have at least ten I send them to school. The way our school does it is that you tape it to a sheet that the school sends home (at least 10 of them). Then that is entered into a monthly drawing at school.

I clip them (or tear them off the packages to be more precise) and put them in a basket that I keep our paper plates in. The plates keep them from wondering off. My daughter’s elementary had this, but since she is in middle school now they do not do it. I thought I would start giving them to my step-daughter’s school but the program was cancelled for lack of response and participation SO, my little cousin gets them for her school.

We don’t keep them organized well. They all go in the coupon drawer and when I clean out the drawer we turn them in.

I use the baggie idea as well, but with a twist. I keep a loose magnet in the baggie with the clip outs. Then I chuckle as I toss the baggie against the fridge when it stays put. Finding fun where I can.
