Support the Friends of the Somerville Public Library by shopping at Shaw's

[chenoameg.livejournal.com]

For a while there was a box in the West Branch library to collect Shaw's receipts. Just when I'd gotten around to doing that and was about to drop them off, they've changed the system.

You now sign up your Shaw's reward card with a special website, and all your purchases on Tuesdays, Wednesday, and Thursdays at Massachusetts Shaw's or Star Markets give a kickback to the Friends of the Library.

Go to www.shaws.com/neighborhoodrewards.html

Enter your Shaw's reward number
Enter the phone number you gave when you signed up for the Shaw's reward card

After you've logged in you're asked what program to sign up for -- Friends of the Library ID #49001019921

(Or so the instructions tell me, I have no idea if I even gave a phone number when I signed up for my Shaw's card.)

that's pretty funny, as I can't remember the last time I went to a grocery store on a day other than Saturday or Sunday. Whoops.

Yeah, I find "give us your receipts" a lot easier than "jump through these hoops and then shop on certain days" but oh well.

(I tend to only shop at Shaw's for serious loss leaders, and those are often sales limited to Friday-Sunday or Saturday-Monday.)

personally, I prefer this as I like to keep my receipts, but it would be much nicer if it weren't limited to certain days.
