Grocery Receipt Program

How the program works:

Our Grocery Receipt Program is a way for our church to convert grocery receipts into “free money” for the church. Since 1999, this program has earned over $8,000 for the church!  Here’s how it works:

  1. Congregants who shop at City Market at Park Royal and IGA Dundarave save their cash register receipts, and place them in the folder on the bulletin board in the stairwell.

  2. Tom Fullerton picks up the receipts, sorts them by store, and adds up the totals.

  3. When he collects $5,000 worth of receipts, he mails them to the store.

  4. The store gives us $25 or $50 gift cards for each bundle of $5,000 in receipts.

  5. Tom exchanges the gift cards for cash with people in the congregation who shop at those stores.

How you can help:

If you shop at City Market at Park Royal or IGA Dundarave, please save your cash register receipts and put them in the folder at the top of the stairs.
