Any money saved will help me pay off the mass amount of debt I have accrued for him!
They will ship in dry ice and will notify you when it goes out.

I remember you posting pics of your pup on here before. Give him an extra big hug from me.

This show just drives me crazy. These people will never use most of what they buy. I have only been able to force myself to watch a handful of time, but I never heard a single word about donating some of the thousands of tubes of toothpaste or cans upon cans of soup or vegetables, or whatever....

I don't think it is "saving money" when you end up wasting what you get or buying stuff that you don't want/ need, even if it is free. Frankly, I think a LOT of the people on this show are just another version of hoarders.

Some do donate a lot of the stuff to charite, others help out their friends, family and neighbours.

But some are just greedy and crazy.

If you watched it more you'd see that quite a few of them make BIG donations. One guy made up somewhere around 50,000 packages for the members of the military who are overseas. Another couple did it for their church, and several others have mentioned making huge donations to the food bank.

One woman lived in a bad neighborhood, and opened her home up to local teens, so they could come in and get something to eat.

I sure will. He's such an amazing little guy. We adopted him a brother in February, and they are getting along great!
