Coupons for Overseas Troops

Posted on Madame Deals Website under Community Service Section:

In honor of Memorial Day, we have started a community service project that will support our overseas troops. It turns out that overseas military families can use expired manufactures coupons for up to six months after the expiration date at the commissaries. So, instead of throwing away those unwanted and expired coupons, we are sending them overseas! 

Only manufactures coupons can be accepted. No Internet printable coupons can be sent.
Tips for making this a great project:

• Cut coupons out. This will make it easier for them and less weight for shipping fees!
  
• Sort coupons into two categories; food items and non-food items.
  
• Place categorized coupons into Ziploc bags labeled with Food or Non-food.
  
• Send only coupons that are expired by two months. It takes time for the coupons to get to where they are going!
  

We have decided to adopt a base through http://www.ocpnet.org/ . We looked over the list of bases in need and decided to adopt U.S. Navy Sigonella, Sicily!
