I think I posted this in the wrong spot originally so am trying again!


I seem to get a lot of coupons for products I don't use. The bigger dollar ones have been for diapers and baby formula.

I carry these with me and when I bump into someone looking at the product, I offer them the coupon. They are always happy at the generosity and I am happy that they saved a few dollars.

My most recent example was for $5.00 off of a specific brand of formula. Since my son was now on milk, I didn't need it. It took a few "strangers" to find one, but finally someone was more than happy to take the coupon. The nicest thing was she was a single Mom and apparently short on money already.

Cost: nothing more than the time to ask a question.
