But as a side, please make sure what you put out is not more than 6 months old.
Many of these items will be picked up by seniors and working families with kids who want relatively healthy easy to fix meals, so that can of kidney beans from five years ago that wouldn't have been purchased at the dollar store anyway won't be useful to them.
