So much of what we get to stockpile can be purchased for cheap or even FREE. One of the blessings we have is to provide things to missions or organizations that are in need. Last week, in this post ^[1], Jennifer asked where to donate the Glucose Meters that are always FREE or a money-maker. Tara commented that she donates them to her vet – GENIUS! I never would have thought to donate these to a vet or animal shelter! Tara, what a great idea and thanks for leaving the comment!

I’m curious, what do you do with your surplus of stuff? I’ve talked many times about Target Dayton ^[2]. I have a box set aside with our stockpile to efficiently throw donation items into after my weekly shopping trips. When my box gets full, it’s ready to go off to Target Dayton ^[2].

What about you? Where do you take your donation items? Do you have a process for organizing everything until it’s time to make the trip to donate? I’d love to hear you! You may just inspire someone to find a place to donate items too!

If you are interested in finding food shelters near you, you can find a shelter with help from Feeding America’s food bank search ^[3]. Churches are another great place to offer your items as well.
