1st Train of New Year - The "Making Cents" Coupon Train Now Taking Riders

**Its_Donna** · 01-01-2008, 08:17 AM

I'm looking for riders for the Jan. 2008 "Making Cents" Coupon Train which will leave the station 1/7/2008 and then every Monday for the rest of Jan. (the 14th, 21st and 28th).

This is a 4 week train meaning you will send an envie out to your partner 4 weeks in a row...you must commit to all 4 weeks to ride this train....(of course emergencies do come up and are totally excuseable. If you must get off the train please let me know ASAP).

Mail Dates are: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21 and 1/28/2008

Rules:

1. You will send an Envie of 30-40 coupons with expire dates 3 weeks out (expire 3 weeks from 1/7 and 3 weeks from each mailing date thereafter). I will send you the name and addy of whom you are sending to. You will send to this same person for the next 4 weeks. Shortdated Q's are fine but do not count toward the required 30. Please keep duplicates to a minimum (unless your partner specifically asks for lots of dups).
2. Please post here when you send and when you receive your envie of coupons.

3. Please label your envie with your FV Screen name. It makes it easier for your partner to thank you.

4. Please post your wishlist of "wants" and "do not wants here". Be sure to state if you want printables, store specfics and which stores, Pets, baby and Medications. This is your wishes of wants; it doesn't guarantee you get everything you wish for.

Riders - Please be sure to follow the requests of your partner on the "Do Not Want" Q's.

5. Send me your name and addy through PM.

I will assign your partner Saturday 1/5. 1st Mail out is Monday 1/7/08.
