Giving from my deals.....

Well this week was not the greatest at CVS, but other weeks have been wonderful. So much that I have created quite a little stock pile of products.
Well this morning certain stresses got to me and I needed to vent. I came up with this........

I gathered about 2 shoeboxes full of personal hygiene products for both adults and children and drove them to my local homeless shelter.

This did 2 positive things for me:

1. I was able to donate things that were needed and I had extra of.

2. I was able to release my stresses because of the rush I got from knowing I was helping someone else out.

I encourage you all, if you join me in some "retail thearpy" to please donate if you end up with a lot of extras. It will certainly give you a great feeling!

Have a great day everyone! :)
