Do you imagine that the postage would amount to one standard stamp? or more?

[bcteagirl]

I'm hoping to keep it at one standard stamp.. it would amount to more if a lot of extra coupons were put in..Right now I am thinking of batches of about 50 coupons a piece, will see if I can find more good ones.

I have participated in something similar in the past. It's fun and a great way to save money. I already have some Enfamil formula coupons burning a hole in my pocket (my baby prefers Nestle Good Start so I can't use them).

I suggest the Round Robin style of coupon train so that the envelopes that are being mailed are less bulky and everyone can participate at the same time.

Also suggest that people exchange an equal or greater $ value for the envelope. Meaning, if there is $5 coupons removed/expired, there should be an equal value put back in. That ensure that the total value of the envelope is always the same or increasing (so that no one get an envelope with only one coupon in it).

Great Suggestions alajen! I am hoping to start successive envelopes every few weeks. I will keep you updated. Just got back from groceries, managed to grab a few good Pam coupons, St. Ives, Tetley, etc.

I just pm'd you - I am in! Great idea!

I seem to be procrastinating.... Am starting a small practice train of the people who have expressed an interest (I PM'ed a couple of you to get more info) this week. Since I have not run a train before, it seems like a good idea. Plus, I have some good save.ca coupons that I shouldn't let die in vain (1$ off real fruit bars, etc).... Also coupons for yogurt, soy sauce, claritin, sausages, tampax, kleenex, Dawn, paper towels, pam, baking mixes and granola bars, cereal, children's advil, highligner, Tetleys, stouffers, etc etc etc etc.
Need to get this pack weighed to see if it will be regular postage. Watch the emails you sent me for further updates within a few days. Just starting one train for now, starting in BC, then heading out by way of Calgary clear to the other end of Canada.


If you have not gotten in touch with me yet, don't worry, there will be more! Just PM me to be added to the list (Name, email, city and province).
