Default Lots of coupons that I will never use...

Hi ya'll,
I have a ton of coupons that I will never use (Its just me and the boyfriend in a small apartment and I don't have room for much of a stockpile).

I thought about selling them on e-bay, but the $ doesn't make it worth it.

I thought about trading here, but I realized I just don't have the time to do it! (Full time graduate student+have a job). Typing these up alone would take ages!

I looked for organizations that may take these to purchase food and other goods, or distribute them to those who need it. Can't find such thing...
So, I'm at a loss... what would you suggest?

Someone just contacted me about getting a swap group in my area... HCW rocks! :)

You can always look at peoples wishlists and offer them the coupons you have. Or offer them on freecycle. I would love to help you rid yourself of some of them...lol

Just because it doesn't look like you have the room don't think you don't. Get creative with your stockpiles...

You don't need to type them up. Just offer potuck envies of x number of Q's for a certain price-- stamps, potlucks, certain Q's off your wishlist, concealed cash, BTFE, etc.

You can also send them off to overseas military. They can take expireds too but they'll take "fresh" ones if that's what you've got.

HI Re: Lots of coupons that I will never use...

This is my personal experience:
Whenever I throw away q's that I do not think that I'll need- I end up finding a deal that makes them free or a mm or a hot trade. I'm serious- always! I get so aggravated at myself every time so that's why I remember those circumstances! My advice, keep them somewhere, stuffed in a baggie under the bed. Maybe I'm weird I have dug q's out of the trashcan if it makes it free or a mm!

I bet if you took them to work and let people know you didn't want them, they would find a home quickly.

I would suggest posting them in the RAOK forum so they will go to good use. You will need to join the trader group in order to do that.
