Every so often I go to one of my local carpet stores and ask for some of their discontinued carpet samples to donate to the local animal shelter. They are more than happy to oblige as long as I bring back a receipt from the shelter so the carpet store can use it as a write-off. You can "pay" yourself for your good deed by choosing a sample for yourself. Win-win!! :-D
