All of our local schools participate in the Box Tops for Education program, as most around the country do. I always make sure to clip the box tops and place them in a container that I keep on my kitchen counter especially for them and then drop them off at the school on a regular basis. People would be amazed at the difference that the box tops can make in a school if we all worked together and turned in those box tops. With the start of school either already here or quickly approaching now is the perfect time to start saving those box tops.

Are you looking for that perfect customized holiday gift to share with your loved ones? Let me tell you about Vista Print. If you have been a reader of The Post-It Place for some time you will remember that I made some Erin’s Graduation Announcements at Vista Prints and they turned out FABULOUS! Everyone that received one was amazed at the job they did and how affordable they were. I was really, really happy with the cost. But there is SOOO much you can do on Vista Prints that people don’t realize. How about a 2010 calendar filled with family photos for all those Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles, etc? They will be thinking of you all year long as they treasure such a personalized gift.
