This year, the School Bucks Program will begin early, on August 1, 2009! Be sure to help your school get a head start on its points by visiting Colonie Center for your Back-To-School shopping!

Schools who wish to register for the program can do so at the Guest Services desk at any time prior to August 1.

Here's how it works...
Bring your original cash register receipts from any Colonie Center store to the Guest Services Desk (located on the lower level of the mall between CVS and Glennpeter Jewelers) and they will credit your school, stamp your receipt and hand it back to you. Your school will receive 5 points for each dollar shown on the receipts.

Rules:

  • School Bucks is not a receipt drive...It is based on actual dollars spent by personal visits of family members, friends and supporters of each participating school.
  • Store employees may not be used to collect receipts for participating schools
  • Receipts will not be accepted after June 5, 2010.
  • Receipts must be redeemed within 60 days of purchase date.
  • Schools in violation of program rules may be subject to removal from the School Bucks program.
  • Schools must be present at final ceremony to receive award.
  • If you have questions, please contact Anna at Colonie Center,
