Each month, usually at the end of the month, I go through my coupons and throw out the expired ones. There are still some stores that will take them, but for the most part, if they are expired, they are useless.
I ran across this post from Mummy Deals, and if you send your coupons to the military they can be used! Check out the specifics here:
- There is no donation minimum so grab a stack and clip away.
- They ask that you clip them as they only have volunteers who are already super busy. It'll also save you postage.
- Separate them into food and non-food.
- Do not send Assistance Vouchers, Food Stamps, or any other assistance items. Store coupons, those only good at the store named are useless on a military base overseas. Do not send restaurant coupons.
- Use envelopes or baggies to separate them, not paper clips or rubber bands.
- Label them.
- Add up the totals per bundle.
- Send them to a participating base here.
Thanks, Mummy Deals, for giving us a GREAT way to use those expired coupons for a GREAT cause!! Any time I can support the military, I'm there!!
