My 29 Day Giving Challenge officially ended a few days ago. I missed a few days in between but overall I managed to give a gift every day. Here is a break down of all of the gifts I gave:

  1. A Gift for My Husband (Night Table)
  2. A Book for My Mom (Chicken Soup for the Mother & Daughter Soul)
  3. A Gift for the Troops (Toiletry Items)
  4. Time with My Mom
  5. Donation of Sundresses and Evening Gowns
  6. A Cookbook for My Dad
  7. Dinner for My Family (Baked Ziti)
  8. More Time w/ My Mom
  9. Birthday Gifts for My Mother-in-Law
  10. Reusable Grocery Bags
  11. Two Pink, Brand-New Bridesmaid Dresses
  12. Time for Meditation
  13. A Candy Bar for a Co-Worker
  14. $3.50 Worth of Coupons to a Random Shopper
  15. Donation to the Local Fire Department
  16. Computer Game for My Brother (It was his birthday.)
  17. Anti-Nausea Wrist Bands for My Sister-in-law who is undergoing Chemo
  18. Mailed PaperBackSwap book via First Class Mail rather than Media Mail
  19. Donated Clothes to the Donation Center in North Carolina
  20. Spent Time w/ My In-Laws for Father’s Day
  21. Food for My Co-workers
  22. $4 Worth of Coupons to a Random Shopper and Her Husband
  23. Took the Broken Apple TV to the Apple Store for My Husband
  24. Donation to Fund a Child’s Trip to Summer Camp
  25. Donation to Charity to Support Cancer Research
  26. Gave a Homeless Man a Banana and a Cookie
  27. Time with my Grandmother
  28. Time to Reflect

I’m very glad I participated in this challenge. It was nice to spend a few minutes each day thinking about how I could help someone else. It helped me to recognize just how blessed my life is and just how much I have to give.

    Hi Frugal Girl!
    My cousin’s wife was diagnosed with breat cancer, and is currently undergoing chemo before her surgery. I saw you bought your sister-in-law anti-nausea bracelets. Where did you find them, and can you recommend any other types of gifts or spirit-lifting things I can send to her? I’m at a loss.

    Your challenge sounds amazing. Congratulations! You are definitely an inspiriation.
