So one of the things that I see a lot of couponers do that I really like is donating from their stockpile. It is something I have been wanting to do, but haven't had a chance yet. Well, we live in Alabama which was severely impacted by tornadoes yesterday, so what better time to give back a little. I have a friend who is collecting donations and this is what I am giving to her tomorrow. I estimate that retail this stuff would probably cost about $30, and what did all of this cost me? Absolutely nothing! So for the people who say couponing and stockpiling is the same thing is hording, here is just one reason why you are wrong. I buy enough for me and my husband and anything extra I can give to others who need it. This is something I would not have been able to do without coupons. I wish that other people would get past the hype (and frankly lunacy) of shows like extreme couponing and see that there are people out there who are doing a lot of good with their couponing, in addition to saving money for their family.
