Frugal Divas March Swap *UPDATED*

**dz_blonde_girl** · 03-07-2004, 11:18 AM

Are you ready to start swapping! I know you are! Woo Hoo! Won't this be fun! I'm really excited because I'm starting to see wine tags and more forms in my stores!

This will be a routine monthly swap with a new sign up every month. We will swap an envie of at least 20 coupons, 1 form and an extra goodie like stickers, a pen, a pack of gum or popcorn that was free after coupons, or even a stamp or 2, whatever you want. Try to keep it coupon/rebate related. You could even print some trade slips for your partner.

So here's the place to sign up! When you sign on please add info like kids, pets, can you double, stores, and anything particular you are needing to help your partner put your envie together.

For those of you who are form poor, I get mine from trading boards and coupon auctions (and $3 is WAY too much to pay for a 25 form potluck). I just traded .87 for a 25 form potluck and $1 for "an envie full" of forms.

Sign me up Karen!!!! I'll be looking for forms in the stores here. Our area does not double coupons. We have 3 teenaged boys, use lots of popcorn

, have 5 cats (always looking for kitty litter coupons), and go through lots of Langer's juices and Zaterine's rice mixes.

Sign me up too. I am extremely form poor and haven't really been successful on the coupon boards.

I have 2 ravenous teens and a little one. No pets. I can double coupons here, too.

Sign me up too.

I can always use forms as they are hard to find here, have 2 dogs and 1 cat, no baby coupons needed.
I can double to $1.00

**guest2** · 03-07-2004, 07:15 PM

Cool, now I know who to send my dog food coupons to!!!!

**dz_blonde_girl** · 03-07-2004, 09:28 PM

I'm really excited about this! There are no stores that double here. I don't need any pet or baby coupons, except $1/wipes, any size (if they even exist). I'd love to get a few Fisher Boy Product, any $1 (4-30-04, last week or the week before) and/or Free Oust from today. Other than that I just love to get mail with coupons in it!

**guest2** · 03-07-2004, 10:17 PM

So Karen, do we just look at what people need and send them the coupons??? How does this work? I need details so I can start sorting and sending!!!

**aylasmommy** · 03-07-2004, 11:24 PM

I am especially on the lookout for Charmin toilet paper coupons worth 1$ off, tic tac coupons, kraft cheese coupons and yogurt coupons. We live off cold cereal half the time

I can double, so a 1$/1 gets me 2$ off my bill...
Things I do *not* need: cleaning/pet/baby/hair care items

**dz_blonde_girl** · 03-08-2004, 12:08 AM

Duh, me. I knew I was forgetting something.

I will assign partners on Saturday 3/13 by drawing names out of my soon to be famous cereal bowl. So it will be like a regular kind of swap. We can modify it as needed, so all input and feedback is greatly appreciated. I've done weekly swaps on other boards, but it's just too much. I think if we all send out 1 envie a month, we all get 1 envie a month, it's a good place to start.

Did you see the cute little piggy bank we got for our club? I don't know how to get them passed out. If any of you do, lmk so we can get everybody one.

**AmyMCGS** · 03-08-2004, 03:23 PM

We don't have to do it every month, right? I definitely will want in on this later, but right now my own coupons are stacked up waiting to be cut & sorted... and that's down pretty far on my list with our house going up for sale in two weeks! So, I can't do it this month, but maybe next.

**dz_blonde_girl** · 03-08-2004, 05:51 PM

Right Amy, we'll have a new one every month. I know it's harder some months than others. Imagine every week! We may go to 2 a month later to keep them moving!

**CountryRose** · 03-08-2004, 05:58 PM

I am interested in signing up also. Tell me where to find forms and I will share. I would like baby coupons. I have three grandbabies in diapers.

52 and never too old to learn

**Mom23boys** · 03-08-2004, 09:38 PM

I am very interested. Sign me up too!

I can not double any coupons, so I look for the high dollar coupons. I need anything, EXCEPT no baby items. No babies in the house anymore. I could really use meat, toliet paper, and beverage coupons at the moment.

AND I love any rebate forms!

**Guest1** · 03-08-2004, 10:01 PM

Count me in....

one hungry soldier, two bottomless teens, and two other youngin's, two dogs, & one indoor cat.....

no baby stuff....military/commissary coupons welcome....can't double or use expired ones....I'll think of more later, I'm sure!!

This is gonna be good!
