Grocery/Manufacturer Coupon Train

Sorry I haven't been around the last couple of weeks! It's been crazy around here and it's not about to let up any time soon!

I wanted to let my sender(s) know that I received my envies! Thank you so much!

Alli76--I mailed out this weeks envie yesterday. Sorry I was late with last weeks. :(


I started on the train because I have been buying items to be used for Soldiers. One thing I have been working on is buying items to go into bags for a Company of Soldiers currently deployed. Last night a couple of ladies came over to my home and helped me put the bags together. I wanted to post a couple of pics of what we did.


The ladies who helped.

Wow! That is awesome. Thanks for sharing.

My DH is AD Army and I consider the Soldiers in "my" Company as belonging to me. LOL!

I try to do things for them whenever I can. This past weekend I had another dinner for the single Soldiers in my Company. I try to do it twice a year for them. Sadly we're the only Company in the BDE that does it.

Even sadder is the reason that I have incomplete bags. I was given the number of single Soldiers in the deployed Company back in July, unfortunately that number has grown since then.

I can't imagine being deployed to a war zone and losing everything I thought I had while there. I know a bag of HBA doesn't make up for it. But it makes me feel good that I can do a little something.
 

That is awesome what you are doing !!!I send the expired coupons to the overseas families but what you are doing is wonderful!!!!
 
How about we all send IRISH any special coupons for these items when they have BOGO !! I know they have them on a least some of these items !!!
 
Thank you all for your kind words! I was looking for a way to say Thank You to the Soldiers and thought I could do the bags.

Honestly it scared me! LOL! I wasn't sure I could pull it off and didn't tell anyone what I was doing in case I failed in my mission.

When I had enough I called the ladies in the picture and they came over Monday night to help make the bags and that was when I found out that the number had increased.

I was able to make up some of the short fall from my personal stash but some items were bought specifically for the bags so there weren't any extras.

Today when I came home there was a bag on my back porch full of the Clorox to go wipes (I think someone cleared a couple of shelves!) so those will go into the bags tonite. The extras I will put away for the next set of bags that I make.
 
Did anyone get a Furreal Friend $5 coupon in their insert this weekend? I heard there was one but I didn't get it. Just wondering if there really was one. Something I was looking at getting my DD3 for Xmas. :)

Last night I clipped an insert I never got around to cutting this past weekend and there was a coupon in it.

If you'd like to pm me your address I can mail it to you.
