I once read that commissary stores would accept expired coupons from military families. And that these stores would accept donated expired coupons from the public so the families could select the ones they wanted.

Only overseas commissaries will take expired coupons. You have 6 months past the expiration date. I don't know were to send them.
I belong to several coupon trains and have a list of places overseas that will accept coupons for the military families. I also have an address of a contact in the US who forwards coupons to them.
You can search Yahoo groups for coupon trains if you want to do that. Or I would think that you could probably do a search for sending coupons to the military.
Thank you for thinking of our military families.

I have a ton of expired coupons and would like to send them to someone that could actually use them.
I have been doing this for several years now an have addresses for all over the world. No they do not waste the coupons an if you read the letters I have reveived beck you would know just how much they all appriciate them. The way I do them is to put them into a plastic bag (zipper type) an into a big envelope. I do tape all seams of the envelope. I wait till Walgreens, ect run them on special. also on the front of the envelope at the bottom on the left hand side put "coupons for military families" also you need to fill out a green short form from the post office...your post office will show you how to fill it out it very easy an short form. also tell them what is in the envelope an ask them to ship them the cheapest way. even our post office ask if they might get some addresses from me so they could start sending them also. If you know anyone who has family members in the military they also like to know about this..even a girl in our bank wanted to address of a military base where her son was startioned.
I need someone to send an email or information to me on how to get my coupons to the military. My email address is lpme AT gbta.net.

I have been saving expired coupons for a cause. Can you send me the address so I can send the coupons. Thank you
