Trial sized products with coupons for donating!!!

[Carol324]

Well just thought I would say that I was able to get 5 of the Arm and Hammer toothpaste and 3 of the Banana Boat sunscreen and will be donating these. I really was happy you posted this Jillynoodle because those are products I don't use and it enabled me to use these coupons up and for a good cause. Never thought about using coupons for trial sizes.

Thanks again!

Great!! I started last month collecting for various shelters here in Mississippi ( Jackson Area). I used qs for trial size items such as Dove deodorant and etc.

I'd love to donate them with the glucerna etc but can not even find them!

For the longest time I couldn't find the Joint Juice at my Target. We don't have Super Target, just the regular stores. Couldn't find it. Then all of a sudden this week I see the stuff in Target. It's in the bottled water section. So if you've looked in Target in the past, it may pay to look again now.

I've found that our Target stores have recently been taking Qs that exceed the price of the item with no problem. In the past it was like a major event that would involve CSR to be able to use these Qs. But the few weeks must have brought a policy change or something. All of a sudden they take them at the register with no problem, and I've had this happen at two different stores. They adjust the value of the Q in the register so it matches the price of the item. Glad to say I can now use my Qs on trial sizes to donate. Hooray!

I'm gathering trial size products to donate to some of the residents at the nursing home I work at. You'd be amazed how many elderly people living in nursing homes don't have anyone to come and see them. A little act of kindness can brighten someones day more than you can imagine. Also, the activities department is holding a carnival soon and they are accepting donations for prizes. Yes, they're basic needs are met, but having a little something extra (like a razor that won't cut your face) can brighten their spirit.
