Interesting! Box Tops for Education Apparently Not Valid Toward Student Loans

...unironically, I'm a little surprised something like that isn't a legit thing.
I'd buy the FUCK out of a brand that contributed a dollar toward my student loans with the purchase of their cereal or macaroni noodles or w/e. So long as the price tag isn't jacked up a dollar to offset - if it's a net saving and the volume of food is comparable, I could forgive a lot in the taste or quality department.
Hell, I'd make entire meal plans around that brand. Gotta eat anyway, so it's a win for me; and while their profit margin wouldn't be as high as a purchase from a non-student-loan-debt-slave, the massive uptick in brand loyalty would be a win for them.
No they aren't interested in that. They want obedient workers who MUST purchase their brand or else we have to work longer hours with no pizza party.
It already is, though. GM increases the price of every item by the value on the box top so it’s a through-tax that you get to pay. Every top not given to a school is just more money in the bank for them.
Yea I'm more of a generics/bulk kinda guy. If it's a dollar toward my loans + an upcharge on the actual item, then fuggit, I'm sticking with the cheapies.
