Stone Bridge Food Bank, Magnolia Texas


How much do you think
 7 tubes of Colgate toothpaste cost?

How about Nothing!
How about Nada!
How about FREE!

Colgate coupon for 50 cents
Kroger doubled  = $1.00
Cologate was on sale for 98 cents
FREE!

Just think if everyone in Magnolia cashed in their
Colgate Coupon...we would have a truck load of toothpaste to donate to our food banks!
You got to love Free!

Speaking of Love...we also made a
Sweetheart Basket
for a special girl...It is true, it is better to give than receive
because we had so much fun putting this basket together!





It was Sweet!


Groceries for StoneBridge Food Bank








A few of the lovely Coupon Angels
Welcome Diane!


After loading the car with bags and bags of the groceries for StoneBridge food bank,
(groceries were more than half free thanks to coupon/sales)
one of the ladies said,

"I don't know why I haven't been doing this before"...
"I don't know why I haven't been doing this for years and years!"

and I understood what she meant.
Me too.
Why haven't I been doing more!
Why haven't I used my spare time and spare change
 for all these years to help take the burden off families that need a little extra help?
Was I too busy?
Was I too unaware?
Was I too uncaring?

I think I just did not know how to help.
Would the little that I could do really make a difference?

now I know...the little that everyone can do
makes a big difference!  Just think...how many more groceries and
toothpaste we could have donated if more
of you lovely ladies joined us every Monday morning.
or...choose your own way of giving.  It really make a difference in your own life!

to be Christ-centered,
Melinda
