Sue's "20-10" Train!
Welcome to my New Year's Train!
Four weeks
Eight envies
Open to any member with a 5+ iTrader rating and no negative!
Here’s the ride:
After reading this WHOLE THREAD and making sure you understand all the rules, here's how to sign up for this train.
On each of the four mailing days, you will send two envies to the riders that have been assigned to you. Two other people will also send you envies on that same day. So over four weeks, you will send eight envies and you will receive eight envies.
In each envie, you must include a total of 30 coupons: 20 inserts and 10 non-inserts. (If you wish to include more noninserts, that's fine, but your total must be at least 30 and the envie must contain at least 10 non-inserts.) The envies will be potlucks, but must meet this "20-10" requirement.
Non-inserts include anything that's not a coupon found in the Sunday newspaper inserts. Tearpads, blinkies, catalinas, peelies, MIR forms, etc. all count. Printable Qs will also count as non-inserts for this ride, though please don't send ALL IPs to meet your non-insert requirement.
Please note that you must meet the "20-10" requirement for your envie to be acceptable for this train. If it does not, you may be asked to re-mail! If you cannot come up with that many noninsert Qs, please consider riding the next time!
Mailing dates will be:
*Thursday, Jan. 7
*Thursday, Jan. 14
*Thursday, Jan. 21
*Thursday, Jan. 28
There is no limit on the number of riders for this train. I will take everyone who is eligible and signs up by NOON on Tuesday, Jan. 5. Matchups will be done that evening!
TO CLAIM A TICKET:
1. Post a reply below telling me that you want a ticket.
2. Then send me a PM with the following:
* “20-10 Train” in the title
* your full name
* your mailing address
* a link to your wishlist (the link in your siggy is fine if it's up to date)
*Please note: you can only ride up to three trains (including conducting) at a time at HCW. If you are already on three trains, don’t sign up. You can catch the next one!
In order to take this ride:
*You must be a member of the Trader group on HCW and have 5+ unique and NO negative feedback ratings.
*You must be able to mail envies on the mailing dates given. On my trains, I like to limit confusion, so no early mailing, please!
*You must be able to send out 240 quality coupons. That's 30 coupons inside each of the 8 envies.
*I’d like to give folks a chance to use the coupons before they expire. So please send coupons that have at least two weeks before they expire.
*You must have a posted, updated wishlist to ride.
When you take a ticket, you are agreeing to:
*…mail the envies as described above.
*…write your user name, “20-10 Train” AND the week number on the outside of each envie you send.
*…post promptly in this thread when you send and when you receive envies.
*… remail your envie if it has not been received at the two week point. Joining this train means you agree to this rule. Please remember, that when you sign up to join a train, not only are you agreeing to the specific guidelines of that train but the train rules as posted HERE in general. Failing to follow the rules of the trains or not sending an envelope falls under a bad trade. You can be reported for this and be listed as a bad trader.
ALSO PLEASE NOTE: If you are the receiving end of an envie and have not posted that you have not received it by the two-week mark, it will automatically be considered received and marked received.
Additional fine print:
*No baby, no meds, no booze and no oddball products that very few members use unless you have an exact wishlist match. In other words, no junk!
*Limit of one copy of each coupon unless it is an exact match to a wishlist. An EXACT match is exactly that… if I say on my wishlist 75/1 Superpretzels, 50/2 is NOT an exact match. If you have and exact wishlist match, then duplicates are encouraged!
*You can always send more than 30. If you want to include more than one of a certain coupon, or some with a short expiration date, that is OK, but it has to be above the 30 coupon minimum. And if you do send extras, watch your postage!
*Printables, store-specific coupons, BTFE, Campbell’s Labels, Coke Codes, Pepsi Codes, etc., are great to send if the member can use them.
*Rebates and TMF forms are GREAT to include (just be sure they can be used in the state the receiver is in!).
*If for any reason you mail out late (life happens), post in the thread when it went out so your receiving rider can watch for it.
*Please leave feedback for fellow riders who send to you!
*Please also note that this is a potluck train! I hope that riders will try to match the wish lists of their assigned recipients, but just do the best you can. As long as you adhere to the other rules about expiration dates, minimum number of coupons and mailing on the mailing dates, you should be fine.
*You can always PM the member directly if you have questions about what they can or cannot use.
*And finally, if you have questions about the progress of this train or whether a trader sent you an envie that does not meet the requirements for this train, you can always contact me.
WHEW! OK, if you made it through all that and would like to ride, send me that PM and post below!
