The "MARCH MAD MONEY" Coupon Train is ready to go!

**ellendanis** · 02-28-2008, 09:50 PM

In an effort to keep the trains moving without any delays - I will just jump in here . . .

Calling all riders for the March 2008 "Mad Money" Coupon Train which will leave the station 3/4/08 and every TUESDAY for the rest of March (4, 11, 18 and 25th.)

This is a 4 week train - you will send an envelope to your partner 4 weeks in a row.

Mail dates are: 3/4, 3/11, 3/18 and 3/25/2008

Rules:

1. You must commit to all 4 weeks to ride this train! In the event of an emergency - PM me or post a message here ASAP.

2. Send an envelope of 30 or more coupons with expiration dates at least 3 weeks out (expire 3 weeks from 2/4 and 3 weeks from each mailing date thereafter). Shortdated coupons are fine but DO NOT count toward the required minimum. Please keep duplicates to a minimum (unless your partner requests duplicates).

3. Label your envelope with your Frugal Village screen name.

4. Post here when you send AND when you receive your coupons.

5. Post your wishlist of "wants" and "do not wants" ON THIS THREAD - YOU ARE NOT TICKETED AND READY TO RIDE UNTIL YOUR LIST IS POSTED HERE!

Be sure to state if you can use printables along with store specifics. Please note that this is is a "wish list" - it doesn't guarantee that you will get everything on your list.

6. Be sure to follow the "do not want" requests of your partner.

7. Send me your name and address through PM. I will send you the name and address of your partner. You will send coupons to this same person for all 4 weeks.

I will assign partners on Sunday 3/2. 1st mail out is Tuesday 3/4/08.

If you are interested in being a sub for the month of March - post your list here with "I CAN BE A MARCH SUB" at the top of the list.

Here's to mucho amounts of MARCH MAD MONEY!
