I do plan to donate the glucose monitors to a nearby retirement home. The cookies are already gone, but the rest I am adding to my stockpile. I am always looking for opportunities to share what we cannot use with others.

Don’t you LOVE it when you leave with more ECBs then you went in with! AND you paid so little out of pocket too!

J- You have a CVS within walking distance, you know.

Great deals!!! Shopping at CVS is so much fun, isn’t it? I haven’t yet bought the glucose monitors because I couldn’t think of anyone to give them to, but I didn’t even think about donating them to a retirement home! What a great idea. Thank you 🙂
