Monthly Mission



Missions is something God has planted in my heart. We must glorify Him in everything we do, even our little blog about saving money! Rachel and I decided that we would do a "Monthly Mission" as a way to do that in a tangible way! We'll be looking for opportunities to serve others and using our couponing skills to assist where necessary!

For the month of May, our mission is to support a family of missionaries in India. Our friends, Rachael Boyer and Blake Boyer  are headed on a mission trip to India on SUNDAY. The family they will visit has asked for a few American items they can't get in India. I jumped at the chance to help out and Rachael gave me a LIST of items (which makes it even more fun for me!)

We will be collecting these items this week. If you'd like to help out, email us what you are getting and you may drop it to me at Pinelake on Wednesday (25th) or I'd be happy to meet you somewhere! We need it by Thursday to get it packed and ready!

The List...
(we will update links for coupons as we find them today!)
12 men's deodarant (unscented - stick)
12 women's deodarant (unscented - stick)
**Deals at many stores this week!
Beef Jerky
Lollypops
Various Chocolate bars (York Peppermint Patty, Junior Mints, 5th Avenue Bars)
Sunflower Seeds (to eat)
Flavored coffee (Vanilla, Hazlenut)
Several bottles of Vanilla Extract
Nutterbutter cookies
10/$10 @ Rite Aid
Fig Newtons
Several Yankee Candles of varying aromas
Tubes of the highest level Suncreen you can find

We ask that you pray for Rachael & Blake this week as they prepare to leave!
