The people then substituted half Sa' of wheat for that. Ibn 'Umar used to give dates (as Sadaqat-ulFitr). Once there was scarcity of dates in Medina and Ibn 'Umar gave barley. 'And Ibn 'Umar used to give Sadaqat-ul-Fitr for every young and old person. He even used to give on behalf of my children. Ibn 'Umar used to give Sadaqatul-Fitr to those who had been officially appointed for its collection. People used to give Sadaqat-ul-Fitr (even) a day or two before the 'Id.​

:salam2:
sister it means that when you go out for eid prayer...as last hadith mentioned

People used to give Sadaqat-ul-Fitr (even) a day or two before the 'Id.

...
the wisdom behind this obligation is the people who are poor can enjoin us in the joys of eid... you can give it before eid..............Allahuallam.
acceptance is up to Allah sister ..
