Is anyone able or willing to receive a box full of slightly expired coupons every few months from a church in the states? I have been getting them and dividing them up to put in the slots at the commissary but since we're leaving this summer, before I tell them to discontinue sending I was wondering if someone else would like to get them. All I need is your mailing address and I will send it to my contact. Or call me and I will give you her e-mail. They are getting discouraged because they spend their time cutting and mailing out boxes every month and because people move and don't let them know, some of their boxes get returned unused. I always find lots of good coupons you wouldn't otherwise find here when I'm going through the box, and if you didn't want to or didn't have time to go through and divide them, you could always drop them in the big box at the FFSC. 629-5354

Thanks

Lori,

I would be happy to do it. We'll be here for another 2-4 years. I have time to divide and drop off.

I wouldn't mind helping either Lori. How would you like to exchange info? I don't really want to post my mailing address here.

Just give me a call with your info. Like I said, they send out every few months, so you may only get one or 2 big envelopes or boxes a year, unless I can find some other groups that do the same.

Thanks!

Thanks Lori, Valeta and Erica. I think that will be all they will let me submit.

If anyone else is interested in receiving expired coupons, please let me know. I have a contact who runs the following website:

couponstotroops.com

Her name is Lesley Parkinson. You can find her email address next to her name at the above website. She will put you in contact (by email) with someone Stateside who will collect coupons for you and send them to your APO/FPO. I have gotten several of the flat rate boxes FULL of coupons. According to Lesley, she has more groups collecting coupons than people to send them to! She would love to add you to her list!

If you have trouble finding her email address, give me a call and I'll pass it along (since I can't post it here) I would also be happy to answer any other questions you may have. 629-5101

Hi Lori,

I'd be happy to help you get started. Sorry for my late reply, just got back in town last night. Is tomorrow (Feb 17) at 1:00pm a good time to call? If not, just let me know when.
