The Grover Gold Tuition Reduction Incentive Program (T.R.I.P.) being offered by Oak Grove volunteer parents uses the services of a gift card broker organization.  These organizations purchase gift cards in large quantities at a discount from major local, regional, and national retail chains.  As a parent organization, we are able to buy these gift cards at the discount but in smaller quantities to sell at face value, thereby raising funds for families of our school.  Your ‘rebate’ ranges from 2 to 25 percent of the gift card value.  ‘Rebate’ percentages are subject to change without notice.

Participating certificate merchants are listed on the order form and additional retailers, not local in our area, can be found at www.glscrip.com.  Some of the participating retailers include:  Kohl’s, Kmart, Applebees, Arby’s, Pizza Hut, Linens-n-Things, ToysRUs, and Best Buy.

The gift cards can be used, for the most part, just like cash or check at the participating stores.  Gift cards have an expiration date varying from six months to two years.  Some stores limit the amount of change that can be returned from a gift card purchase (see individual gift cards).
