September Coupon Swap

**couponchic** · 09-04-2006, 09:30 PM

Are you ready for the September coupon swap? Please note that each member who takes part must have a minimum of 25 posts. Also, if you don’t keep your commitment once you have signed up for the coupon swap, then you will not be allowed to take part in future swaps until your commitment has been met. We want the swaps to be fun for everyone involved and for everyone to send and receive her swap.

We will be swapping an envelope of coupons (at least 25 coupons). If you have rebate forms and would like to include a few with your swap, that would be fine. I know some people have a lot of forms and some people don't have any access to forms, so forms are optional.

As for expiration dates, let's try to send coupons with expiration dates of 30 days out or later. For example, January swap coupons should have an expiration date at the end of February or later. (If you have a really good coupon that you know your partner could use right away with a shorter expiration date, that would be an exception.) But, for the majority of coupons, let's aim for the 30 days. That will give us plenty of time to be able to use the coupons once we receive them.

When you sign up, please include info, such as if you have stores that double or triple. Also, provide a short list of specific items you may be looking for and anything you may not be able to use, (such as no pet, no baby). This will give your swap partner some ideas of what to send you.

Please sign up to this thread if interested. I'll keep sign up open until Sunday, September 10th.

Let me know if you have any questions.

**bumplett** · 09-06-2006, 10:51 PM

so how does this work exactly? How do you know who you are sending to?

just curious, I've never done this before

**Goodwin17** · 09-06-2006, 11:01 PM

Oh, I keep forgetting to add what I don't need. I don't need cat, baby, or medicine coupons. I'm open to anything else, because I share with a coworker, and then pass them on.

**Backtoreality** · 09-07-2006, 10:48 AM

Okay I'm in (first timer)...but got lots of coupons.

I Don't Need: baby's or cats

Do have: dog
teens

And I have to agree with ya, the stores around here don't do anything special, I even hide my coupons til I get right up to the cashier - that way they're nice to you for at least 2 seconds!!!LOL

**bumplett** · 09-07-2006, 11:24 AM

I'm in if someone can explain it to me as we go..... I don't need - baby , but I could use all pet

**Goodwin17** · 09-07-2006, 05:37 PM

Hi Bumplett. Before too long Couponchic will post a list on this thread about who sends to who. Then you just get some coupons and send them out to your partner. Whomever is picked to send to you will hopefully send you a envelope full of good coupons. It's fun. When you find out who you send to, just see if they posted what kinds of coupons they do or don't need. HTH.

My

was laughing at me this morning because I woke up at 5am to get the paper. He brought

and watched me get to work on clipping all the coupons and start sorting by what we need and what is for swap.
He doesn't understand how I can get all excited about saving 35

I'm ready... my box is wide open... I can't wait to find out who I am swapping with ... I'm ready to burst... I know... thats SAD!!!

**cheappearls** · 09-10-2006, 12:12 PM

I do need:

pastas and sauces
bread
frozen pizzas
any kind of dishwasher detergent.
Ol Roy dog food (my dog is picky)
Special Kitty cat food but any kind will be great.
and anything else really, besides makeup/beauty stuff.
