What do you do with your expired coupons? Did you know that you can send your coupons to different groups and they will be sent to military families who can use them?
You can find different places to send your expired coupons (I compiled a list). Please read the different sites information on what they accept. Most sites will accept coupons that are 1-2 months old.
From what I have read, most commissaries (where military families can use expired coupons) allow coupons that expired up to 6 months ago. It is something that costs you very little and the military families greatly appreciate receiving the coupons.
So before you throw the coupons that are expiring, consider putting them in an envelop and paying it forward and helping a military family who’s loved one is helping keep our country safe.
Note: Some, if not all sites do not take store coupons and will not accept printed coupons, so please read the sites information on what they accept.

Thank you so much for doing that Kristl! I’m thankful you spread the word to others!
Thanks for getting the word out Reginia, I do massive couponing, and I always have ones that expire before I use, so I joined one of the programs that gives you the address of the military family, I send a big envelope of expired coupons once a month, and its nice because I get thank you cards, Christmas cards back from them. I love helping people and this one way to do it.
