I'm still getting used to the concept of waiting for items to go on sale and then getting an additional discount with coupons. I'm really lucky that I can afford so many things.
Anyway, I was just wondering how other people have been helping you and sending coupons. I know I don't need baby items, and would love to help you out in my small way. You and your family are doing amazing work!
Best of luck with everything!

Thank you to you both for offering to donate your baby coupons. I purchase an insane amount of infant items for the charity so every coupon helps! I will post the Address of Essential Aid again so, if you wish, you can mail them there.

Essential Aid and Family Services of Ontario inc.

Thanks again, guys! Much appreciated :)

I set up my local volunteer fire dept with the Optimum Points donation. It wasn't difficult at all... it just took a little time. SDM will send your organization their own Optimum card once everything is set up. Then... when someone wants to donate points to you, they just select your name from a drop down menu, and you won't see their card #... so it's very safe to do it this way! :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to post this info :flowers:

I really should update the pics on this thread... we have expanded/upgraded so much since the original posting.

Thanks again to everyone for your support and kind words.

I just happened to be in Shopper's yesterday... and I noticed some Good Start on the Clearance Shelf... and it was going for $5. :shock: It had an expiry of April 13th -- that's cutting it close, I thought. I'd never get them shipped to you from Nova Scotia in time, either. But, anyway.... maybe your local Shopper's has a good clearance selection, too. It's something you won't know.... until you're at the store!
:)

wow,wow,wow,wow....this is amazing! As a s.w in the niagara community, I have first hand experience working with many families in need. What you have done will go a LONG way and hopefully inspire more people to be as generous as you! Wow, wow, wow...

Wow, amazing deal! I love shoppers clearance! My shoppers drug Mary is really good to me. They help out whenever they can and as soon as any baby stuff goes in clearance they call me and I rush over there, lol. I often get formula for free this way using coupons. Early expiry is no biggie since Essential Aid sees so many families each week.

I think I'll check out a few store this week and see what I can find :)

So wonderful :)

Wow you rock!

Amazing!!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :love::-)

Wow. ...just wow.

This is fantastic <3
