    HOT Selling military coupons

    This really bothers me. I understand clipping services and totally get them. but military coupons to me are different. I mean you have to go on post to get them and use them I understand since many I have seen in the past (haven't shopped on post in forever) had long out x dates and yes i took some but like 4 or 5 never all and never ever thought of selling them.

    But seems someone in this area does. (the link takes you to a seller with in 5 miles of my zip) I have given up on the freebies and near frees and any money makers because I can't get them and I am not going to stress me or my family for them yes I want one or two but I will wait till the hype dies down and stock up on other things.

    Anyways what are your thoughts is it wrong to sell military coupons? to charge for your service to get them (i wasn't able to get the new q book wanted one) when it came out last week because they were all gone very quickly dh went while one lunch so I could plan a trip there)

    I am frustrated if I have to get any kind of tearpad coupons on ebay. Why should I have to pay for them when someone else took the whole darn pad for free?? It doesn't make a difference if its military or civilian coupons.

    Same with beer rebates. Some are only worth 7 bucks and they're going for 4!

    First let me say I had never heard of military coupons.

    I looked at the post and I don't see where many people would be buying them since they can only be used on base. Yea they have a long X date but it's really but that good of a Q.

    MAN I can't wait til all this extreme Q **** dies down!!!!

    Well technically you don't actually have to buy anything on ebay.

    The thing is...many places get little to no tear pads. Or get tear pads for one version...while XYZ place has a better tearpad for the same product.

    That is why they end up getting sold on ebay.

    The only way I get really good deals on certain things is by trading/purchasing ect for better coupon in other area's of the country.

    No real comment on the military coupons. I don't really know anything about them.

    Ditto on ebay being a choice/option. My area is hit and miss on rebates & tearpads. I would much rather trade here for what I need than deal with ebay.
    I had sanity once upon a time I promise . It was just so long agoooo that I can't remember it.

    I think they should be reported if you find out who is doing this. That is just WRONG! IMO

    It is frustrating to see an empty tearpad on the shelf...and I do shop at the commissary, but I see it the same way as I see selling tearpads of regular non military coupons. They are basically the same...they are all manufacturer coupons.

    That is horrible. I dont even take more than 2 coupons at a time from the book. You have to leave some for others.
