Coupon Train????

[floridagirly68]

Anybody a member of one??? Or would anybody be interested in being in one??

I always hate it when I throw away so many good coupons. It would be nice if we could form some coupon "trains" to exchange coupons. Especially now with food prices so high. I've been checking out some other sites to see how they do theirs and have gotten some good ideas.

Anybody interested???

huh... never heard of such a thing.... I'd be interested in learning more. I just went thru my sunday paper and discarded a bunch of coupons.

I got a stack sitting right here in front of me. How does it work? I'd be interested.

Re: Coupon Train????

In most of them I have read each train has 5 or 6 members. The "conducter" of each train (the person that starts it off) will mail their coupons to the next on the list they take what they will use, add their unwanted coupons and remove any expired coupons and send it to the next person on the train. Ideally each person will on keep the coupons for 1-3 days to keep it moving at a good pace. Most of them that I read about they try to pair you in a group that are either in the same or neighboring states to reduce mail turnaround time.

Re: Coupon Train????

three or four days??? I don't think it would matter, you are still in the US so no extra postage.

Re: Coupon Train????

I'd be willing to join too. I use coupons but also end of throwing away half of whats in the paper. What I use most are coupons for cereal, yogurt, dog & cat food & toothpaste.

Doesn't matter. I'll figure out since we all seem to be from all over a good order to go in by location.
