The Best $5 you'll every spend!Your membership share is invested in a non-interest bearing equity account. The number allotted to you is used when making purchases at the various locations listed above. All purchases are recorded and tabulated, and at the end of our fiscal year; when it is determined what our total savings are, we allocate the savings back to each member on the basis of their purchases. From the allocation we usually pay 35% in cash with the balance being added to your initial investment of $5.00. Once your total equity reaches the ($1,300.00) thirteen hundred dollar ceiling, set by our Board of Directors, the full amount of the allocation is pain in cash thereafter. The amount you receive from the earnings depends on how much you patronize you Co-op.
