Just a thought, if there are a lot of spanish speakers (I’m just guessing) in your area you may want to make note of this blog: http://ahorrosycupones.blogspot.com/
It chronicles various savings and coupons but in spanish.

Thanks again!

I’m glad you shared this. While it’s a thrill to have such a nice stockpile, I have to be careful not to take the attitude of “Soul, thou hast much goods layed up for many years…take thine ease. Eat, drink, and be merry.” In our abundance, there can be a temptation to trust in great sales, coupons, stockpiles, etc…Being able to share the fruits of my shopping trips with others helps me to keep from being turned inward.

I met a homeschooling mom several months ago whose husband was in jail, and has now just recently been sentenced to a minimum of 30 years in prison. I was on the monthly rotation to take meals to her and her 6 kids when I realized I could bless her even more with many of my drugstore and grocery stockpile items. Every month when I bring her a meal, I load up with diapers, wipes, shampoo, toothpaste, lotion, razors, over the counter meds, non-perishable groceries, anything and everything I can think of. Sometimes I’ll find that she needs a particular item that I don’t have on hand (that’s rare) but I’m able to use my ECBs from CVS to buy it.

I have also been able to share some for free with family members in need. I have others who aren’t really in need, but to whom I sell my stockpiled H&B items for $1 apiece. I earn a little back for all the time spent planning, clipping, and shopping. And they get a great deal on items for which they don’t have the inclination to clip coupons. It’s a deal for everyone all the way around.

We’re in between churches right now, but at our previous church, a handful of us were able to keep the church food pantry stocked to overflowing. Our church had also been blessed with a freezer, so when we found fantastic meat/freezer deals, we could help the church stock up on those, too.
