SCRIP NEWS MARCH 20, 2017

This month we will be highlighting one of our businesses through scrip, Tastefully Simple with Stephanie McNally.

** Wouldn’t you love to come home to the smell of a wonderful dinner in the crockpot?

** Wouldn’t you love to come home to know that you can have a meal Prepared in 30 minutes or less?

All of this can happen through TASTEFULLY SIMPLE and I’m here to help!

I am a proud supporter of SCRIP through purchases I’ve made for my own family, but I’m especially honored to offer a 10% discount for those supporting TASTEFULLY SIMPLE through Scrip. I have been doing this for years

because it gives me great satisfaction to give back to CCS.

If you have not heard of TASTEFULLY SIMPLE, now is the time to learn a little bit it and about what I do. Well, besides being married to a wonderful husband, Scott McNally and three handsome, young boys (Evan, Grant, and Cole) and, oh yes, besides working a full-time job as a court reporter, I sell TASTEFULLY SIMPLE and have

been doing so for 10 years because I love it, and it’s a product I believe in.

TASTEFULLY SIMPLE is gourmet products that only require 1-2 ingredients to prepare and most products are under $10. We have items such as: Desserts, spices, dips, beer breads, and yummy slush drink buckets.

But most importantly, we have Meal Collections!

TASTEFULLY SIMPLE Meal Collections, also known as Freezer Meal Workshops, are the way to bring your family back to the dinner table, and all the while saving $$$ and eating healthier than going through a drive-thru.

You can also earn free TASTEFULLY SIMPLE products by inviting a few friends over to make these delicious meals totaling only about $3 per serving. You can’t beat that…a healthy meal, family time, and saving money

all at the same time.

Don’t want to host a party but want the same value benefit? No worries…pick a menu and have it delivered right to your door every month or every other month…and by doing this, you will earn a discount and free shipping.

TASTEFULLY SIMPLE makes it easier than ever to prepare these meals at your own home; have it delivered right to your door; and take the guesswork out of “What’s for Dinner.”

Support SCRIP…Get a TASTEFULLY SIMPLE Gift Certificate for yourself or a teacher. Our school needs the

support. But most importantly…do this for your family and enjoy dinners together again!

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me: Stephanie McNally, Team Manager

Tastefullysimple.com/web/smcnally 251-610-3332

We will be holding a drawing during the month of March. When you place any scrip order of $25 or more during March, your family’s name will be entered into

a drawing for a $25 TASTEFULLY SIMPLE gift certificate. Winner to be announced April 3, 2017.

Coupon books will continue to be available this

week….. until Friday 3/24/17.
