Original parcel deliveries

and sends rations to each other and gifts to the paupers

One of the commandments practiced on Purim is the mitzvah of delivering portions. According to this commandment, every person must send at least two portions to one person on Purim, in order to increase the evils between one person and another.

From a packet delivery team involves considerable costs. Many of the friends to whom we want to deliver parcels, some of them, we even feel compelled to send because they are very close to us or because we have received parcel delivery from them and we feel obligated to send them back. Preparing food deliveries begins with Purim celebrations at school, when children are asked to prepare a meal delivery for a friend, and ends with sending portions to neighbors, friends, family and other important acquaintances.

So how can we still increase the mitzvah, make our loved ones happy, and also keep our pockets?

  1. The whole is greater than the sum of its components – buying a ready-made parcel delivery will always be more expensive than buying the products separately and assembling the parcel delivery yourself. This is due to two reasons: one, you can use your discretion and purchase products on sale, and second, when you pay for pre-prepared parcel delivery, you also pay for the personnel who prepared the delivery of the packets and for the packaging materials.
  2. Buying cheap sweets – the deals are many what. However, choose cost-effective packaging and deals that include products with a cheap basic price.
  3. Make your own – baking cake, cookies and manna ears will be both tastier and more economical. You control quantities and ingredients!
  4. Rolling on – Those who wish to save on parcel delivery expenses can pass on shipments of parcels received as a complete shipment or it can also be disassembled and assembled from new parcel shipments.
  5. Beautiful packaging but also cheap – packaging suitable for packet delivery can be collected throughout the year. Don’t have any packaging you kept? A simple disposable plate, cellophane and decorative tape will do the trick.
  6. Think about a creative idea – sometimes a creative idea will bring joy to the recipient and can also be economical.
  7. Volume is impressive – to make your packet delivery look respectable, buy bulk packaging like snack bags, canned goods and cake.
  8. Some choose not to send packets – Some choose to reach an agreement with neighbors, acquaintances or family members not to send each other a shipment of packets. There are also residences that choose to hold a lottery between the neighbors, and each neighbor sends a shipment of rations only to the neighbor who entered the lottery.
  9. Sending parcel deliveries to people living in shortage instead of sending parcel deliveries to regular members. In this way, the mitzvah will be twofold. Such a shipment can include more foods, canned goods and dry products that will serve the needy.
  10. Did you save on preparing the parcel deliveries? Transfer the money you’ve saved to those who really don’t.
    You can appoint Paamonim volunteers to be your messengers for gifts to the paupers.
