thank you! I know this would be extra work for you, so I understand if you can't do it. Would it be possible on your charity posts to include the coupons you used to bring your pricing down? Although it suddenly occurs to me that perhaps I could find it within the Shop n Save posts - would it be a huge pain for you to put it here as well? thanks for reminding us all about the joys of donating!
ReplyDeleteCommunity Hope Center and I did 300 cans of Progresso and 110 cans of Hunt's Spaghetti Sauce. I think I am going to do some rice later today. Jeri, thanks for showing the power of a small amount of $$.
ReplyDeleteI donated 9 bags of the Schick disposable razors and a bag w/ 5 bags of fun size candy bars to the food pantry (candy for their trunk or treat) LOVE to help others w/ my coupons!!!
ReplyDelete5 boxes of Better Oats oatmeal from the SNS gift card deal will be going in my donation box.
ReplyDeleteI did three trips at SnS. Identical transactions. I was able to total 90 cans of Progresso soup & 18 boxes of better Oats for our holiday baskets at church. When you belong to a church with an average attendance of 25 who always gives 3-4 baskets each holiday, couponing is the only way to go!!
ReplyDeleteHi All - I love hearing about what you've bought for charity.
ReplyDeleteLynne - Yes, the coupon mattch up are in the SNS post. But you got me thinking. Maybe midweek I should devote a post to some ideas people might want to take advangate of if thye are couponing for charity.
Rhonda- Wow! They have to be very grateful.
If anyone wants to take pictures of one of their donation and email it to me, I would love to post it.
I purchased 12cans of Progresso soup this week because the EHS students come Hallowwen night for can good donations and it's better to give soup than the weird pantry cast offs you've never used. I had a can of garbanzo beans that expired in 2009. I also donated about 16 packages of razors for my daughter's personal care drive at school (plus contact solution, lotion). Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHi Kelly - It is nice to be able to have extras or pick up items that are greatly needed to donate.
ReplyDeleteScouting for Food is also right around the corner!
