 $crip for the Holidays

Scrip makes a great gift for the holidays to use as gift certificats or to make your holiday purchases.  Cards are available for gasoline, phone minutes, and fast food, as well as for major department stores and fine resturaunts.  Scrip makes a wonderful, flexible gift for high school and college students.  The added benefit to the convenience of Scrip purchases is that proceeds can go directly toward your ML student's tuition!  Give Scrip a try!
