On the theme of "Pay It Forward," here's something that's not technically a deal for
us, but a deal to help others.
Military Family Coupon Project: Send Expired Coupons to Military Families
Info from their site:
If you have been couponing for a while now, you are probably accumulating some great expired coupons. Don’t you just hate to toss them? Well, you don’t have to! Military families outside the USA can use your expired coupons.
Here are the details:
- Military bases outside of the USA will accept manufacture coupons up to 6 months past their expiration date.
- They can use manufacture coupons only, no store coupons are accepted.
- You can mail your expired coupons directly to a military Family Services Center or Commissary (military base grocery store).
- When mailing packages to a military address (APO or FPO addresses), standard domestic rates apply.
- You can pick up FREE USPS mailing envelopes and boxes from any Post Office.
There's a web site with all the details on how and where to send your expired coupons. You can find it here:

So, no tossing…instead purge those expired coupons from your files and notebooks and send them off to help our military families abroad!
