Lately I have been going to drugstores to shop for household items and have been saving some money to put toward other bills. I am so excited! I will never pay retail price for those items again. I am talking about laundry detergent, toilet paper, toothbrushes and cleaning supplies. I feel silly shopping at drug stores for those kind of items, but I don't feel silly when I see what the final total is.
There is nothing that excites me more than to help save a few dollars.
I don't know of anyone right now who couldn't afford to save some money on their bills, especially at Christmas time! Christmas time is difficult for more people than you might realize. It depresses some and that shouldn't be,but it's so true. When you find items really cheap on your next shoppping trip, try to think of a person who could really use those products. It might be an older person or a younger person in college that doesn't have much money to spend. You would be surprised at how little gestures like that could brighten someone's day.
This year instead of giving to a child over seas, I decided to donate some clothes to a lady in the nursing home. I found just what she had listed at a store that was going out of business. Actually, I was able to give a little bit more than what she had asked for because the items were found at a discounted price. I wish I could have delivered the clothes but it was through a local organization. However you can donate the items yourself as well. All you have to do is go to your local nursing home and ask who doesn't have much this year and they will tell you.I just saw this lady's name on a tree and thought that was a neat idea. So this Christmas, try to donate to someone local,instead of helping someone in another country. #happySunday#beblessed
