I promised last week when I announced the Second Annual Box Topapalooza Contest, that on Mondays I would post our current Box Tops count, and so I shall do just that. As of this afternoon, there are now 75 Box Tops in the Box Tops collecting box in the kitchen of chez trek.
If you are participating in the contest, please leave a comment on this post with your count, so that we can egg each other on encourage each other and cheer wildly as the numbers continue to grow.
If you are not yet participating, please visit the contest post and leave a comment there. Please, please, please. Also, please tell everyone you know that you are collecting them so that they will give your theirs instead of tossing them into the trash can. I am now collecting Box Tops from a friend whose children are no longer in grammar school - I collected for her kids for about 12 years, now she is returning the favor. Pay it forward!
Yesterday afternoon, we visited a nearby town where friends of ours were rehearsing for a choir festival. The festival is a huge annual event in this town, so we ended up parking quite a few blocks from the auditorium. During the walk from the car to the rehearsal venue, we had the good fortune to see something very cool.

You know I love antique hitching posts. :) That one's especially nice!
I just tossed one into the baggie today. I'd guestimate we have about 15 right now. We're big purchasers of house brands, lol, and house brands don't have box tops....
Very, very cool!!! Now you need a horse.
Ah, good idea to request boxtops. In fact [slaps forehead].
I've got them scattered all over the place, but it looks like maybe five or six at this point. I'll see if I can't get more when I shop next week!
I love those old hitching posts. It's cool that they are still out there.
I have 25. Some were found while straightening up, and were supposed to be for the previous campaign!! But at least I found them!
Currently have 27 in the dish. Many more to "collect" from 1/2 finished boxes of items.
I have been keeping the boxtops, even if I haven't been keeping up with the blog. I'll dig them out and send you a total soon :)
I have 25 in my baggie! :) plus two Campbell's labels as a bonus.
Sigh - 6! But several in the queue. As in, the box is still serving its main purpose of supporting its contents!
I just counted my box tops and have 29. When it is time to send I will cut the ones in my pantry storage to be able to send more!
