I thought I would do an inventory of my stockpile of health care and home items. Most of this stuff I didn't pay anything for due to ECB and RR. As some of you know, I am an architect who was recently laid off due the building industry's "standstill." I have had a cleaning lady for years and thus never had a need for cleaning supplies.
I have been trying all types of cleaners and now find cleaning day an adventure of sorts with new products and experiments.
Clearly, our little household of three doesn't need all of this. I am planning on giving some of these items to various charities. The cleaner is going to a local greyhound adoption agency's kennel who rescues dogs from racetracks (before they meet an unfavorable end of their lives). We are a greyhound household.
Some of the health items are going to a potter's house that I discovered through a renovation project at my old architecture firm. Currently, I have 11 tubes of toothpaste and tons of shampoo. I am sure they will get more use there.
I caught your website from www.southernsavers.com. I was reading about your stockpile :) and noticed that you stated you are a greyhound household. I am as well! I have an 11 year old black and white male named Niko who has owned us now for almost 8 years! We adopted him from a GPA group in West Palm Beach, FL when we lived there. He is actually the 2nd greyhound to grace our home as a permanant resident. We have had a few adoptees as well. We also used to work in for the GPA group as volunteers at the kennel so we do know the need for lots of cleaning supplies! How nice of you to help out!
ReplyDeleteHi! I am also from the Atlanta area. I actually live on the southside. We have been doing the couponing for several months now. It's almost become a game for me because of the thrill of seeing how much you can buy while spending the least.
ReplyDeleteI never thought about buying cleaning supplies and donating to rescue kennels. I bought the milkbones to donate to the local humane society. Thanks for the idea!!
