I consider them FPC because you can get at least one product free or 2 depending on the price.

thanks for your input. I still consider them high value because it you want the premium icecream or most of the novelties they are usually 6.99$ or a bit more depending on the store. that being said I really appreciate getting your perspective.

Just because you can get an item free does not make it an gpc value per say
Ie $2 villagio or $2 Dempster's
In the end its free
Even $3 tylenol can get you free product maybeeven overage but I wouldnt tradea fpcfor it
That being aid thearemailto jome and tearpad examples
Since the chapmans is a company mailout that is hard to come by it is defhigh value

Its really all in what youvalue it
In june a dec 2015 chapmans is more valueblethan a dec 2014 in nov. Jmo

An FPC is a product that is free regardless of when or how used.. So I agree.. The fact that a SCer is able to combines sales or PM and make their product free doesn't make the coupon itself free - otherwise there would be a whole bunch more FPCs around. I wouldn't consider $1 barilla an FPC even though it can be with the $1 off.. Regardless Most FPCs have a max value and that max value can be used to determine the $$ off coupon amount to trade it for..

If we all start doing that then we will be taking CO51 in to account as well? Or current promos with product purchase etc?

This is taken from the first page.


"What constitutes a Free Product Coupon (FPC): FPCs should be only those coupons that are completely free. HV coupons which allow you to get something free on the occasions it goes on sale that low are not FPCs (the sale may not come up before expiry, it includes tax etc)

What constitutes a High Value coupon (HV): HV coupons are those where you can get the product free on a great sale or 75% off the regular price. Users may also consider very rare/hard to get coupons as HV (like the $1 valid on Heinz Ketchup for example)."

It also depends where you live, ON sees them free more often than other provinces

Some users already do

Yes i agree. I was wondering about it where it's a gray area coupon some things you could get free all the time at least with the 5$ coupon. Like the regular icecream in the cardboard box. But the premium icecream and novelties at least around here are usually at least 6.99$ regular price and will sometimes go on sale for 4.99$ but I've never seen them for 4$ or less here either.

These trade rates are also just a guidline if one person wants to trade their chapmans for an fpc they can if another wants to trade it for $4 worth of coupons so be it
Its up to you if you want to trade what they are asking you can always back out of a trade before its finalized

Yes I agree but it's also nice to know how everyone else values them for future trades as well.

Just to add specifically about chapmans -- I haven't seen one in ages but I think you can use on "products" meaning you could get 2x$1.99 on a $4 coupon? So there is no way to know what product it is being used on - much like the J&J replacements and kellogg's.. BUT that's really up to trader.. I used to trade the kellogg's for half value gift card half of $5 until I clued in they were being used on larger items.. Same with gift sets for replacement coupons --- regardless I don't think trade has to be exact and it's not a perfect science.. Trade what you feel comfortable with and vice versa - the guideline is there but not forced down anyone's throat.. Just don't ask me to pay your postage.. HAHA..
