    It's hard to buy anything for dear dad. Whenever he wants something, he goes to the store right away and buys himself. Plus he has very expensive taste! And I have a thin wallet lol !

    So whenever is Christmas or his birthday, he always ask that we make a donation to La Maison du Père which is a shelter for homeless men.

    So I grabbed a few items from sales to bring them and today when I went to the dentist, I had remembered him from a discussion we had about donations. So I mentioned them about the stacking that I had been doing. So the receptionist tells me hold on, and I'll go grab a few for you.

    She comes back with 3 cases of 36 Sensodyne toothpaste, small size. I was so excited and moved that they gave them to me. I called dad right away to let him know, he was happy.

    So tonight, I will go bring the items. See the pic below, there are deodorants, razors, coffee, mousse, socks, toothpaste, food for dogs, small size items for hygiene from hotels.

    ***UPDATE 10/23/11***
    I went to the men shelter and brought them the goods! Wow, the guy who opened me the door was really enthusiastic about what I brought him. He said, all these razors are going to be used tonight, great! And then he went through all the Gillette bottles and said those they use all the time and really needed some. I went back home feeling fulfilled! That was nice.

    That's great of you. We take a lot of things for granted, and toothpaste is one of them for sure. Good for you and for your dentist's office!

    The people at my dentists office just about faint if I ask about coupons! And then she will go to the back and get me a mini tube "to last me till my next grocery trip" I think its sweet so I just say "awesome! Thank you! and use a mini tube LOL!)
    What a wonderful gift that your dentists office gave!!! That makes me really happy! WTG!
    In 2010/11 I used over $7700 in coupons!
    My 2012 goal is $6000 in coupons!
