“More than $100,000 worth of new goodies was given to one South Jordan [Utah, suburb of Salt Lake City] school. Students and teachers are enjoying brand new computers, much needed supplies, even new minivans. This was all made possible by a handful of mothers in the neighborhood,” Annie Cutler reports for ABC4.com.
“Angela Merrill and about thirty other moms knew that cutting Campbell’s soup labels would get them something, but no one knew it would lead to 45 brand new iMac computers, a shopping spree for all of the teachers, and two minivans. They say it felt like Christmas in March,” Cutler reports.
Cutler reports, “And still another part of the prize? Two minivans. The school district is auctioning the vans off because they have no use for them.”

South Jordan, Utah has some smart moms.
Silly Moms, they could have doubled the number of Macs and forgot the vans.
Great idea tho’.
“South Jordan, Utah has some smart moms.”
Yeah, but are they hot moms? LOL
Now you know why kids love their moms….
Nice to see that people still give their time to their communities.
Yeah, Thorin. Moms I’d Like to Format.
You see, being a religious racialist Moromon with one dad and three moms has it’s advantages.

That is a good point. How many families did the 31 moms come from?
Cue the bigoted Mormon jokes.
mw: ‘mother’
MILFs and Macs just go together….

Or…Mom’s I’d Like to Fdisk.
Actually, it’s:
Moms I’d Like to Fsck.
Good thing this wasn’t Cobb County, Ga. There they wouldn’t have had any use for the iMacs.
Don’t forget that Linux moms like to fork.
I can’t believe I moved way from there. Doh!
I wish my mom was a Utah mom.
Go Moms!

@Charles,
I thought you knew… Just one family dude.
That’s a hell of a lot of soup! What happened? Did they bring in Donovan McNabb’s mom?
It’s official…MDN readers are, for the most part, horndogs.
MW: major…major horndogs
I’d like to RAM the ROM of that mom.
“Did they bring in Donovan McNabb’s mom?”
She’s hot. AND has soup. She probably likes to spoon.
Hey WiseGuy,
What’s a “Moromon”? Is that like a moronic Mormon?
Yaah, cut the Mormon and polygamy cracks. People should be able to live any way they choose. That\’s what f-ckin FREEDOM is all about.
That being said, it does boggle the mind how they purchased not one but TWO minivans that WERENT NEEDED by the school! I am assuming they were brand new, too.
Wow, couldn\’t that money have gone to even more Mac installations, or Xserve set-ups, or software licenses?
Anyhow, some of the nicest, kindest people I have ever met come from that general area. Good for them.
P.S. Go out and buy or rent Big Love, the HBO series about polygamy with Bill Paxton, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Chloe Sevigny, etc. Good stuff.
Hey….some of my best friends are Mormons
Heck I would be the nicest person you ever met too if I could have a harem.
“That being said, it does boggle the mind how they purchased not one but TWO minivans that WERENT NEEDED by the school! I am assuming they were brand new, too.”
If you had RTFA, you’d know that the mothers won the minivans as part of a prize from Cambell’s Soup. They donated the prizes they won to the school. The school then decided it didn’t need the minivans. The school auctioned them off.
Isn’t reading comprehension a beautiful thing?
