so happy to be able to give

I just left walmart, I needed to pick up a few things such as paper for the printer and some razors too. While I was there I grabbed quite a few items for the animal shelter and also for the food bank. I am so happy to be able to do that. I looked in the aisles for items (canned foods or dried foods) that cost under .50  I was happy to see that there were a lot of canned veggies (I didn't realize they come so cheap as I like to buy fresh or frozen) that were off brands for around .24! I got some dried beans and a few condiments I also had coupons for free soda and we don't drink soda so that is in there too. I used coupons to get some other goodies too like nesquik cocoa powder (7 servings for around .60 I got two). Anyway I dropped off our bag this morning and I was surprised to see that most of the bags only had a can or two from other families, I felt like I could go to the store and do more because I know how badly other people are in need in our community. I think I spent around 10.00. Sure there are a hundred other things I could have used that 10.00 for, Rylan has a birthday just one month away that could have paid for a lot of little things. I think it will be very rewarding to give back. I got three cans of wet cat food free and I also got a bag of kitty litter for only .77. I added that to my box for the animal shelter. I think when I go grab my 5.00 worth of pet food from Winn Dixie (that should get me 3 3lb bags of dog food and 2 1lb boxes of cat food) I will have a nice little donation for the animal shelter too. I can't wait to bring Rylan with me to drop these goodies off so he can see that it is important to give back.
