Bloemke's Travel 455-4441 414 Virginia St. (Rt. 14) Crystal Lake By June Fuller Dear June: I recently started reading your column and you woke me up to the value of refund offers. But the problem is, how to get the refund forms that so many offers require. On a recent trip to the supermarket I asked the store manager about the availability of refund forms. H ̂looked me straight in the eye and asked: "What's a refund form?" What should a person do in a case like this? -Barbara C., Bartlett, Tenn. Dear Barbara: Tliis is a situation where it makes sense to be very straightforward with the store manager. Even though he may really know more about refund forms than he's willing to let on, your sincerity is im­ portant. First, I would take out a refund form and, as I showed it to him, I would say something like this:"This is a typical refund form. The manufacturer is using this form to offer shoppers a $1 refund. In order to the refund, I have to send in box tops from packages I purchased in your store. This should make you happy. Because of this refund offer you sell more of this product. Since you sell more, you should be interested in giving shoppers more of these refund forms." Then, depending on how he responded, I might say: "I buy more of my food at stores that display these refund forms." Here's a good refunding tip from C. Perry of Hazelton, Pa.: "The soda companies oc­ casionally make good offers that require inner bottle cap liners. But the liners are so small that I would often misplace them. I found the answer. A friend of mine is a photographer and she gives me the empty plastic 35 mm film containers. The best ones are clear plastic and you can see the liners inside without opening up the container. I label the others with masking tape and marker pen. Kitty Ward of Gillette, Wyo., says she knows the recipe for "Smart Shopper Cheese Cake": "Recently, my grocery store had the 8-ounce package of Philadelphia Cream Cheese on sale for 75 cents, regularly 99 cents. I had four 20-cent coupons, and after the store doubled their value, five packages only cost me $2.15. I then sent for a Philadelphia $1 refund, so the ingredients for my cheese cake cost me not much more than a dollar.
