Expired Coupons to support our troops overseas

Now that Dominick's has updated their coupon policy much to the chagrin of us trying to super-coupon, many of us are left with a slew of expired coupons.

So what can you do with them?

Well, someone gave me a tip that military families can use them, so I started to do some digging.  Low and behold, I found a source that updates the list of places overseas that you mail your coupons to.  Looks like some bases are getting flooded (which is great), but there are others that haven't asked couponers to stop sending the coupons. 

So this weekend, I'll be updated my coupon binder and making a nice little package to mail out.

Here are the details:
  • Military bases outside of the USA will accept manufacture coupons up to 6 months past their expiration date.
  • They can use manufacture coupons only, no store coupons are accepted.
  • You can mail your expired coupons directly to a military Family Services Center or Commissary (military base grocery store).
  • When mailing packages to a military address (APO or FPO addresses), standard domestic rates apply.
  • You can pick up FREE USPS mailing envelopes and boxes from any Post Office.
