Free To Me - A Gift To Them


--by emackaroni83, posted Feb 28, 2013

Six months ago I joined an online couponing/saving website. They post a lot of free samples of products, coupons and some instant-win and other sweepstakes!
 
I try to enter these sweepstakes as often as possible.
 
Well! I won a $50 giftcard to Olive Garden recently. Instead of keeping it for myself I sent it, anonymously,  to a couple I know where the husband has been off work due to health problems. So, I know money has been tight and I know a night out would be a real treat for them.
 
Neither one knew it was me but the wife posted on her Facebook page that, "An angel sent me and my husband a gift-card in the mail today. I dont know who it was but they probably didnt know our ten year anniversary is coming up and now we can afford to go have a nice meal. So, thanks!"
 
This is something I do with extra time and it doesnt cost any money and it's all legitimate. I dont even mind the extra junk email it brings!  
 
That's my mission now, to pass on any "winnings" that I can to someone who might need them more!
