SAVING YOU MONEY

Online Coupon Class Day #7 – Helping the Military by couponing! + Coupon Class Giveaway

Topic
of the day:  How can I help the military
with coupons?

Are you
aware that each year millions of coupons go unused because people are unaware
that they can donate them to military families?  They can use them for up
to 1 year on their military base and commissaries abroad.  If you have
manufacture coupons that have recently expired, you are able to extend your
donating services by giving these coupons to the military families who are in
need. Be sure the coupon is a Manufacture and not a store, pharmacy or
restaurant coupon.

SSFAM
Helpful coupon donation tip– make sure
the expiration date is easily visible along with the barcode.  Do not staple or tape the coupons together.
Here are a couple of websites to visit to learn more
about donation:

    Long ago i heard of saving coupons for military and then i lost my website link. Thanks for telling us! I would love to donate.
    No chik-fil-a near me 🙁

    I guess that now that many stores are changing their policies because of the show and many of the coupons now aren't for food like they use to be

    I pretty much knew everything so far except that you can send your coupons to military families…never knew that

    The best that I have learned from couponing is that you can make it on a small budget and a lot of coupons. Also, I loved learning about how to stack my coupons to strech my money.

    I became aware of the option to donate unused or expired coupons to the military almost a year ago. My couponing group has a lady who gets the coupons and sends them off to the military every so often. I think its great that we can send them a big box of coupons.

    Ok, I am truly in awe of today's topic. Thank you so much for including this. Even if I take this class and never do another thing with it, I can now send all my coupons to the military to help them. This is a great idea not only for expired coupons, but ones that come in the sunday paper that I will never use.

    For me the most interesting point I have learned so far is Day 3: *Coupon Organization – How to organize your coupons.
    I liked learning how you keep yours organized and how you use both a binder and a coupon clutch. It depends on what kind of shopping trip you are making.

    I already knew you could donate expired coupons to military families. Now I have a contact to send them to. Thanks!

    I had heard about the expired coupons for military families but did not know where to send them, now I can send them on for others to use! Thank you for the great info 🙂
