Pay it forward

[Spikesfrugalside]

Holly I just LOVE this idea!! I can't believe I've missed this thread! I always believe in paying it forward and do, it makes the world a happier place!
So let's see in the last couple of days I've...
-taught a stranger at LD interested in couponing a bit about it and gave her a bunch of coupons to get 5 tubes of toothpaste for 25 cents each to help out her single mom daughter
-gave away my free box of choco cheerios to a coworker plus the same bunch of toothpaste coupons who will be getting married and moving out shortly
-met a fellow SC'er at Walmart and gave her some Dove coupons to help her stack to get deo for free at LD and get toothpaste for 25 cents
-gave the WONDERFUL gal at SOF customer service (who looked after me while getting 4 dozen cans of soup) a few coupons so she too can get some soup at 9 cents a can

In the works, I've been gathering toiletries, cleaning supplies, dry goods, condiments for several peeps
-planning to give a new home housewarming gift to the coworker who is moving out
-gathering things for a gf who's going to be a new mother in 7 months
-getting donations for the local transition house
-gathering donations for the food bank
-currently looking for a place to donate shaving cream...looking for a local men's shelter

You see it's just DH and I (we had two kitty furbabies until the last 6 months when we lost both of them with 3 months of each other) but we don't need much. I've always believed in giving but there's NO WAY that I could ever give the amount of money that I would like to give. But with coupons and frugal shopping I can give soooo much more!

Pay it forward

I don't understand how you bump or sticky something. Ihave seen the word "bump" in a post but don't get it.

"PM" stands for "private message". Just click on the box that says PM on the user's profile if you want to say something to them privately. You can test it out on me if you like.

When a person comments on a thread, the thread will move to the top of the forum. When someone says "bump" it's only to move it to the top so people will see it first...they are "bumping" the thread to the top of the list. Hope that makes sense.

I hope this suits this thread.
Last week I was at walmart trying to use up some coupons before they expire and I was in the diaper aisle when I saw a new mother with her brand new baby. I had a 2 Johnsons coupons as well as 4 coupons from a flyer insert for diapers(the stackable ones) , I tapped her on the shoulder and gave them to her She was thrilled, it felt great!

Found the thread! Bump!

[tinambulance]

Was at Wholesale Club the other day and gave the lady behind me a coupon for her Shreddies. She was smiling from ear to ear which made me feel great. But I was wondering what she was going to do with all the coupons from the boxes!.
