It’s time!  Couponing for Community Week is here and I can’t tell you how excited I am about what this week is going to bring.

Have you checked out our Facebook event page recently?  We now have over 50 bloggers who are encouraging their readers to GIVE this week. Amazing!  We truly have the potential to impact our communities nationwide with this event.

Hopefully by now you have RSVP’ed on the Facebook event page (just click ‘Attending’) and have had a chance to consider what you are going to give.

The cool thing about this is that it is NOT a competition.  Every bit counts and because we are working together, we can have a great impact regardless of how much or how little each one can give.

I like what one of Julia’s readers has done.  She gave herself $5 and and decided to see how far she could make that money stretch.  (As we all know in the couponing world, $5 can go a loooong way!)

(Oh…and don’t forget to take pictures!  I am excited to see pictures and comments on the Facebook wall, sharing what you have been able to give this week.)

Take some time today to consider what you want to give.  Remember that Saturday, May 8 is Stamp Out Hunger Day.  Giving can be as easy as leaving a bag of non-perishable food items by your mailbox.

Remember: On Saturday, May 8, I will put up a post where we can all share how we were able to give this week.  You can leave a link to your blog or a comment sharing what your experience has been like this week.  This event is all about COMMUNITY: reaching out to our local communities and uniting as a couponing community.

FOR MY LOCAL READERS: I am planning on helping out with the food drive at Keystone Opportunity Center in Souderton, Pa this Saturday.  If you would like to personally drop off your donations, I would LOVE to meet you!  I will have more details about this in the days to come.

Are you ready?  Let’s GIVE!

Have I mentioned I’m excited about this?!
