Woodcraft Rebates - As you probably know, we get a 3% rebate on any items that you buy if you give me your sales slip. At the last meeting, Eric McCrystal of the San Carlos store gave me a check for $45.04. Many thanks, Eric. However, to continue to get the rebate, we have to sharpen up our act as follows:

1. Only original receipts will be accepted. NO COPIES.

2. Any receipts for sales January to June must be given to me by July. Any receipts between July and December must be in my hands by February.

3. Any merchandise that has been discounted does not qualify.

So please don't delay in giving me your receipts. I'll be going through them and tossing the ones that don't qualify under these rules. The rebates are a great help to our treasury.

April is the first month when we drop people who have not renewed their membership. If you know someone who has not renewed talk to them, get them to renew. We will have some wonderful programs coming up.
