Sunrise Methodist Church - Pictures




Here are the pictures from Sunrise Methodist Church.




Huge Thank You to Sunrise Methodist Church - Holly Springs

I gave a coupon class last night for a womens group at Sunrise Methodist Church in Holly Springs and the women there were incredible.

They we all incredibly sweet and EXTREMELY GENEROUS!!!

I was overwhelmed by there generosity - here are a few pictures of the tables full of item for the Bags of Hope.

At the end of the meeting we actually filled 10 Bags of Hope that Stephanie will deliver to a local charity.

I would like to thank all the ladies that attended as well as all who gave items through the church. There were literally bins of items.

A few women gave money which is amazing - this will allow me to buy items that are hard to find coupons for, especially underwear and socks.

A huge thank you to Stephanie for putting all this together!!!!!

I will post as soon as I know where she delivers the bags and the remainder of the items to a local charity to give you a total of what was collected.

A truly amazing group of people - we are very blessed to have people willing to help others in need.

I am so excited to teach others what I have learned and have been blessed to have met Stephanie through my blog.

My Points - Earn $$ for reading emails.

I want to tell you about another way to make $ when you are on the computer.

My Points is a reward based program that you earn point for various things and then redeem those points for gift cards or other merchandise.
First sign up and create a profile.

Based on your profile you will receive emails that you receive points for reading.
You may select up to 15 areas of interest, I suggest selecting 15 because the # of emails you receive is related to your profile. You may also change your profile at any time.

It takes my two seconds to click on them and just by checking my email and clicking these few emails everyday I have earned enough point to redeem into a $25 Gift Card to Walgreen's.

There are a lot of other ways to earn points such as downloading the toolbar, selecting certain offers and participating in surveys.

I did mine purely by clicking on the emails they sent me.

It took about 4 months for me to earn my $25 Gift Card - not bad for about 30 minutes of my time.

This was a simple way to make money to use to buy products for the Bags of Hope.

End of Summer Deals

Most area stores such as Walmart, Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, Belks etc..have great end of the season sales.

This is a great time to pick up birthday gifts, hostess gifts and teacher gifts to be used throughout the year.

Most drugstores have 75% off all their summer merchandise so think ahead for next year. Do your kids need swim goggles, flip flops, water toys,?

Usually drugstores will have great deals on sunscreen - but I haven't seen them yet, probably another week or two. If you are like me stock up for next year. As a family of four we go through at least 10 bottles throughout the summer.

Just make sure to check the expiration dates on the sunscreen, most are good for one to two years.

This is the time to get them.

This way people can use the badge holder and insert any type of identifying things that they like to personalize it.

Use the online coupon code LABOR15 for some free or nearly free business cards, postcards and more....
