Hello ladies, we are starting a new train! When we get more riders I will send out the first train. So far we have 2.
1. Utkd29-DeAnna
2. Ibeapoet- Amanda
3. SassyJan- Janice
4. Jessiegirl- Jessie
The Guidelines:
Take only what coupons you need.
Replace what coupons you take.
Try to include coupons that everyone will appreciate.
No coupons with expiration dates within 5 days.
Replace expired coupons if you can.
Mail the envelope to the next rider on the list within 3 days.
If you cannot continue, please let the conductor of your train know so that the train can be continued.
Please provide enough postage so as not to delay the train.
If you have any other questions, please send me a PM

Same here! I'm on train 8 with you and I have only received the train once! So welcome aboard!!! :D (I'm answering for the conductor b/c she is out of town, but I know it's fine... b/c I'm her sister, haha)

It's no worries on the .68...I'll find some other way to take it out of ya! :) Just kidding, really it's not a big deal...it's more of a deal to head across town and get to the post office to pick it up. LOL I'm headed there after work today to pick it up and will have it out in the mail hopefully by Friday.
Yeah my little one gave us the norovirus where you puke and do other fun things for 1-2 days. Not very fun and this is the second time she's gotten this...probably from school and then it's highly contagious and I knew we were just doomed!

jastarck
05-16-2008, 12:58 PM
I think the reason why there was an extra charge was because the letter was so fat that it counted as a parcel and not an envelope? That's what the mail lady told me. So we'll just have to watch that when we send these out. In any case, I got the train out in today's mail so it's on it's way again.

Thanks ladies.... keep your fingers crossed. we really need to move closer to my dh work....he's spending almost $500 a month in gas and thats not including any running around that i do. It stinks that we're in such a rural area that you have to drive 45-50 miles one way just for a job or to do any grocery shopping. I hopeful and maybe our land will sell quick... Anyone want a house IN Sneedville Tennessee????? 34 acres and a doublewide?????? anyone????????????:D

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you guys. I hear ya on the gas though, my hubby commutes to Denver every day and we easily spend $500 a month on gas just for him.
If I'm absent for a few days, I'll be helping some friends of ours who home was destroyed in all the tornados that we had yesterday. :(

I pay about the same every month for gas. I live 63 miles each way from my job. I am really trying to remain optimistic about the whole thing. We LOVE where we live.

Got the train yesterday. It is HUGE! I took out about 20 and added over 100. I went through and put them in order from dates. We dont have to do this, I just thought it would help since there are so many. Any thoughts?:)

I sent the train on Monday, June 9. Sorry I didn't post yesterday. It was really heavy, the next person should spread out the coupons so that the envelope is flatter. That is one of the reasons it cost me so much to send. It made the package not go as an envelope. I still got some really good coupons and put in a bunch myself.

How much did it cost you to mail it? Ususally the envelopes are pretty full so you have to use a bigger one. It normally takes $1.50-$2.50 to send it.
Thanks for updating us!:)

It actually had to go priority - which is $4 and something cents. She said it was too bulky and heavy to go as an envelope/first class. Either way, the next person might actually want to take out all the duplicate coupons and just keep two as opposed to three or four of the same coupons. I still got over $10.00 worth of coupons out of it. I use a lot but I also had a ton to add. I have been saving coupons for this train for over 6 weeks (many coupons take 3 to 4 months to expire). I am sending all the expired ones to the military. There is a post somewhere here about that.

If you have a food lion near you try to look for the granola bars there. They are going to stop carrying them so they are on sale for 1.67! With coupon its just 0.67 cents a box!!

It was sent to me in a brown large envie and the postage was $4.80 so a box was about the same. I'm saving more than spending so I'm happy :) either way. I'll try the paddend envie next time and see what happens

Guys: I am so sorry. I did not realize I had the train for a week. It has gone out today and I don't think I will ride anymore. Too much on my plate that I actually forgot I had the train.
Anyway, it has been sent out. I took out a lot of expired September coupons and put in a decent amount of October ones.
Again, I am so sorry and I will be departing this train.
Thanks.
Jen

Not a problem. Things get crazy sometimes. I don't mind the wait. Good luck and I hope things calm down a little.

Low...really? Last time I sent it out there was over 600 in there! Maybe they all expired, I have a big stash to put in there too.

I have a BUNCH to put in when it gets to me too!
Last time I had it I thought it looked a little low but I figured it was nothing unusual since I haven't really been getting that many coupons in the paper. I should have said something at that time I guess. I'm sorry! :(

I am sorry the train is running low on coupons. I dont know what is happening. I put tons and tons in everytime I get it. At least 100-150.
Everyone please make sure you are replacing what you are taking.
I have plenty to add when I get it. So far about 200.

No, no meltdown, just been sick, had a sick little one and had a wedding to go to in NC. I meant to let you all know that I was going to be out but totally spaced it. Sorry about that. In any case, I came back yesterday and I did have the train in my big ol' pile of mail. I'm hoping to get it out in the next few days, hopefully that's okay...seems there are a ton of coupons to go through. :)

Sort of all better, not 100% yet. That's the joys of having a little one in daycare, seems whatever she gets, I always get. :) I finally got the train out today in the mail, sorry for the delay again.
