All aboard! April coupon train

**missyali** · 03-22-2009, 09:32 PM

If you want to ride the April Coupon Train post an interest and a wish list in this thread and I will assign partners based on wish lists. I will take names until Friday, April 3rd at noon. I will then assign partners and PM everyone their partner's address.

If you sign up, please be prepared to mail out 4 envelopes (only 1 stamp is needed ) of 30-40 coupons in the month of April. Coupons should be mailed NO LATER than Tuesday of each week.

If you are unfamiliar, or just need a refresher on how The Train works, click [ame="http://www.frugalvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=107868"]here[/ame].

Could we get some input on the week of Easter? There will be no coupons in that Sunday paper and family life may be hectic. Should we say only three envelopes in April?

SPECIAL REQUESTS:

NOTES:

I cannot use internet coupons
I cannot use expired coupons
I know this sounds kinda picky, but no area store doubles coupons so a 25 cent coupon or one that I need to buy 3 or more high dollar items to use the coupon is really useless to me -- I'm not name brand loyal so I will buy a store brand if it's a better deal than using a coupon

**Natalie** · 03-28-2009, 11:52 AM

I'm thinking I'll sign up. But I'd say only 3 weeks for coupons in April, 'cause of the Easter week.

Okay. I'll sign up (back from checking the "rules".)

Wish list (It's not long, but here goes):

1. I seem to be using a lot of cough drops lately,
2. I love Coke soda,
3. One of my ladies I help in my job goes through a lot of Pepsi products, and I'll sometimes use coupons for her (so this is the category where anything--nonalcoholic especially-- would fall.)
4. Maybe a coupon for a fast food place (though I should cut back). I have McDonalds, Arby's, Wendys (though I don't frequent that place much), Jack-In-The-Box, Burger King...
5... Whatever...

My laptop's not hooked up to a printer, so if you print out coupons, you could send some of those to me.

**lvngwell** · 03-28-2009, 09:29 PM

I'm in! I don't do internet printed as stores here will not accept them. I never need alot but I like to share from my bounty!

Here is my wish list:

Brand specific:
Scott TP
ERA laundry soap
Dawn dish soap
Slim fast drinks and snack items (any diet items really)

General categories:
any coffee - not instant though - flavored stuff would be good
any soups - canned or otherwise
any frozen dinners (I only buy them on sale and with coupons!)
any meat products (canned meat, lunch meat, frozen)
any cheese products (deli cheese, cheese sauce, mac n cheese, etc)
any milk (soy or real)
any bread
any dryer sheets
any bleach
any Peanut butter
any spaghetti suace
any baking/ cooking items (flour, choc chips, boullion, yeast, etc,)
HBA of any kind are always welcome as I have friends who I trade with locally for what we each need.

No need for:
pet food or baby items - my pets eat special food and my "baby" is 13!!

I am real easy - I have many places to send what I dont need so I can have a partner who has limited supply. I wll be glad to update my partner with a note weekly if there is something in that weeks insert I would like more of for the next go round!

PS - I can do as many envelopes as need 3 or 4 or more. Just let me know!

**Natalie** · 03-29-2009, 09:54 AM

Oh, I forgot: no coffee (though I'm hooked on caffeinated sodas), alcohol, smoking type coupons...

Got enough health problems as it is, allergic to cigarette smoke, forest fire smoke....
