**UPDATE – I am extending this month’s deadline to this Saturday, July 10th. Also I have a new mailing address. If you have already sent me coupons, please send this month’s expired to the new address below** I don’t know about you, but every month, I have TONS of expired coupons that I typically throw away. I did some research online and found that I can send my expired coupons to military families overseas and they will use the coupons at their commissary and PX or BX (these are basically department stores that sell all non-food items).
Since I started saving money using coupons over a year ago now, I have been blessed ten-fold. My spending on groceries has decreased drastically and I now have more food, toiletries, etc than I would have ever imagined. I want to bless others now. So, instead of throwing away my expired coupons, I will send them to an overseas military base once a month. Would you like to help? If you are interested in participating with me, I would love for you to send me your expired coupons. Every month I will post a reminder and will give all of you 7 days to gather your expireds and mail them to me. Then, once I receive all of your coupons, I will ship them out to a military base. Below are the requirements if you are interested in helping:
1) Mail your expired coupons to: Addicted to Saving, PMB 105, 8348 Little Rd, New Port Richey, FL 34654
2) Send me all coupons that expired ON or AFTER June 1st. (Commissaries will accept older expireds, but I’m only going to send one month old coupons since I will do this once a month)
3) Do not send me printable coupons and do not send store coupons(i.e. Target, Publix, Walgreens etc) because commissaries overseas will not accept them.
4) Separate your coupons into two categories Food & Nonfood. If you mail all of your coupons to me in one envelope, use an elastic or paperclip to keep the two categories separated. Food is considered anything eaten by humans.. Food is also considered gum. Nonfood is toiletries, dogfood or catfood (since it’s not consumed by humans), vitamins, medicine, etc.
That’s it! I will do the rest of the work! I need all of your coupons in my hand by Wednesday, July 7th!
Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
Just wanted to let you know I just put out an envelope should get to you in about 3 days. TY for this post I no longer have to throw out my expired coupons. God Bless
