TLDR: Regardless of their financial stature, nobody throws a dime in the trash. Why would you throw out a Box Top? One of the many reasons I am drawn to clipping and collecting Box Tops on behalf of Dunloggin is because they are a form of currency. As you likely already know, when a Box Top is returned to General Mills - $.10 is credited to the DMS PTA.
If you were walking down the street and saw an unclaimed dime lying on the ground, would you just pass it by? I think not. Most of us would definitely reach down to put it in our pocket.
Do you throw the spare change in your pocket or purse into the trash or recycle bin? Of course not. (That would also be a federal crime, by the way.) You collect it in a jar or dish until you amass a few dollars.
It's the same with Box Tops. Just visualize all of the dimes (er, Box Tops) laying in the cupboards and recycling bins of our houses, sitting there ready to be put to use on behalf of our students!
