Do you have a ton of expired coupons left over at the end of the month? Been there, done that.
Instead of throwing them away (or putting them in the recycling bin) you should consider putting your expired coupons to good use. Yes, you can actually help others with those coupons! The military commissaries overseas accept manufacturer’s cents-off coupons for up to six months past their printed expiration dates (Sweet!). So, consider sending them your expired coupons.
The following Organizations help make that happen. They serve military families by sending your expired “manufacturer’s coupons” to overseas military bases where they are given to the military members and their families on base.
Coupons To Troops
Coups For Troops
Overseas Coupon Program (OCP)
*The organizations have been listed in alphabetical order.
I suggest checking out each one of these organization and see which one works best for you.
Do you know of any other charities/organizations that use expired coupons to make a help others? If so, please let me know so that I can add them to this list.
