So does that mean my post should be moved from Home Mailers?

I just looked at it, I moved it to Freebies for Individuals for you. When you receive the coupon, you can post the specific coupon info in Home Mailers.

Just to clairfy. I found an offer from Walmart for a Dove sample a few days ago, and did several searches for Dove (several variations) none of which came up with the offer. So I posted it, and it was a repost (whoops!). I used the search button at the top of the HCW website, and used the 'search forums' option. Is this right? Is there a better/easier way to do this??

Thank you!!

I always use "Search This Forum" that is on the top right side of the first post in the Freebies forum.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do a search. Do it on multiple words....

If DOVE doesn't work, try LOTION. If LOTION doesn't work, try CREAM.

There have been many, many reposts lately.

Thanks!!

ETA: One thing the search engine does not do well is find things that are touching other characters. So if you do a search on walmart and don't find what you are looking for, try doing a search on *walmart* instead. The first search will not return something like this:

free diapers~~walmart

because of the ~ touching the w in walmart.

So try to remember to use the wild cards to get a better result.

I cannot stress MrsPinecone's post enough. In the last month or so, there have been MANY, MANY duplicate posts. If you don't find something when you do a search, try another word, or add a wildcard (*) at the end. We try to keep the forum as clutter-free as we can.
