Coupons for you

I have a couple of coupons for someone who can use them:

*50 bonus box tops for education

I am pretty well stocked, so I don't need very many coupons at the moment. If you are in need of other coupons, leave a comment and I'll let you know if I have one to spare. There is a fairly good chance that I might have what you need.

People's City Mission Needs School Supplies

I dropped these things off at People's City Mission on Thursday, and they said they are in great need of school supplies right now. I got everything pictured for under $10 by picking up the best deals at Target, CVS, Office Max, and Office Depot over the last few weeks.Watch for great deals and donate what you can. I found it was easiest to get to PCM by driving west on O st. and turning left (south) on 21st. It is located on the corner of 21st and N St. just east of Randall's car wash. You can drive around to the back to leave your donation.
