Welcome aboard the ABC Train.
This train will run for 2 weeks.
You will mail 2 envies each week, with 25 coupons each (15 non insert, 10 insert)
This train also has a little TWIST to it.
In the first week envies, you CAN ONLY INCLUDE coupons that start with the following letters: ABCDEFGHIJKLM
(examples are Glade, Hamburger Helper, KC Masterpiece, Meat, etc)
In the second week, the envies CAN ONLY INCLUDE coupons that start with the following letters: NOPQRSTUVWXYZ
(examples are Rachel's Yogurt, Nestle, Reeses', Pepsi, etc)
MUST READ ALL THE RULES IN ORDER TO JOIN THE TRAIN!
The ride: This is a 2 week train with 2 mail dates, 2 ENVIES EACH TIME (25 coupons in each - 15 NON INSERT, 10 INSERT) That is 100 coupons in total. 60 NON INSERT & 40 INSERT. (So if you do not have the 60 non & 40 insert avaliable to mail, try riding next time!) The first week can only have coupons inside that start with the following letters: ABCDEFGHIJKLM. The second week can only contain coupons that start with the following letters: NOPQRSTUVWXYZ.
The people: 15 riders (this includes myself), you can only be a rider or conductor on a TOTAL OF THREE (3) trains at HCW. So if you're already on 3 trains, please let someone else have a chance to ride & you can try again next time.
The time: Mail date #1 is NOV 24th, mail date #2 is DEC 1st, these are both Mondays. You can mail early if you choose to.
The rules: iTRADER rating of at least 10 unique ratings, with no negatives.
You also MUST have a posted wishlist, even though it is a potluck train, others need to know what types of coupons to send you.
If your envie gets lost in transit, you must REMAIL @ the 2 week point. Signing up is your agreement to follow this rule & the others stated in this post. As well as the HCW rules.
No junk! This means, no diapers, depends, medicene, feminine products, Cleaning products, etc UNLESS the person states they are able to use that product. In that case, mail away.
The 15 NON Insert can be from tearpads, homemailers, magazines, peelies, hangtags, MIR (no more than 2 MIR per envie), anything that doesn't come from your Sunday paper.
COUPONS INCLUDED CAN NOT EXPIRE BEFORE Dec 8th for the first mail date & CAN NOT EXPIRE BEFORE Dec 15th for the second mail date (this gives 2 weeks for your contact to receive them & use them)
You may include coupons that expire earlier than the date listed above, as long as they are EXTRAS over the 25 coupon minimum.
Extras are always a great act of kindness, if you wish to include them, just make sure you have the proper postage to send the envie when you include extras (some coupons weigh more than others). Also you can include extras that are different letters than the week posted but they must clearly be marked as extras by a folded piece of paper!!:)
Internet printables are great if the person states they can use use them.
Multiples (more than one of a coupon) are NOT ACCEPTED, unless they are an EXACT match of the person's wishlist (& even then you can only include 2 multiples UNLESS ITS EXTRA!!!). Example. If their wishist states "snack foods" it is NOT okay to send five $1/2 Chex Mix bars. BUT if their wishlist states "$1/1 Kool-aid Singles" then it is okay to send more TWO of that coupon.
