Very recently, we've had two large families in need of supplies from our church's pantry. In an effort to restock, I'd like to give an example of how far a dollar can go. Actually, about $70. A few of the items in the first picture were donated by a very gracious lady here in town.
Most everything else was purchased at Publix, CVS and Target over the past 10 days. Here is the tally:
- 23 canned goods
- 4 bottles of lotion
- 6 "Huge" rolls of paper towels
- 24 double rolls of toilet paper
- 4 bars of soap
- 3 body wash
- 2 shampoo
- bread crumbs
- 2 jars of peanut butter
- 1 box of popcorn
- 1 bottle of olive oil
- 5 boxes of pasta
- 3 boxes of cereal
- 2 cans of cooked chicken
- 2 large bottles of pasta sauce
- 2 air freshener sprays
- 1 package of pantiliners
- and a reusable shopping bag
What about you: how far can you stretch $70?
