Easter Eggstraordanaire Train

Let's hop into Spring with this Egg-stra special train with a small twist...wait for it....!

I'm looking for riders interested in a ticket for the following train that no-bunny will want to miss out on.

The basics:

Envies will need to include:
1) An Easter card
2) 30 coupons
3) A free item or 4 unused forever stamps
4) A sheet of stickers

Now for some more details...because specifics aren't for the for the birds...ya' know what I mean jelly bean?

1) Easter card:This should be a nice card or hand made card that is intended to brighten your pal's day (can be spring themed as well, please send what you would like to receive, how you would like to receive it -i.e. don't fold this up in a legal size envie to save a dime...that would be uncool, ya see what I'm sayin'?

2) 30 coupons: These should be matched as closely as possible from your pal's WL. Start off by matching to their IVDSO items (aka High WL) then move on to medium WL items, etc. Once you've exhausted all of those, then if you saw that they have q's for candy on their WL, maybe include some great tearpads or if they have lots of restauraunt WL's maybe include some fun McD kids q's or throw in some fun long dated tear pads/peelies/etc so even if they can't use them, maybe they can use them for a future train...are you following me here? Of course this is a potluck train as all trains are but I am really looking for good match-ups for these eggstra-special envies. If you are stumped, send your pal a pm, maybe there are some new insert or printables out there that they haven't gotten a chance to update their wishlist with in a couple days because just maybe they were let's say super busy in other awesome forums on HCW, not to mention homeschooling, being super wife, cuddling an extra fussy almost 2 year-old, and trying to self diagnose hair loss and recurrent UTI's...just possibly???

3) A free item or 4 unused forever stamps- You may not have a super duckie free item but if you do, that would be superb for this train! If not, the 4 stamps will suffice. Also a strongly encouraged practice is to POST what item you receive as your free item-it's fun to know what's out there and what others are sending/receiving-capiche'?

4) A sheet of stickers- Please no free easter seal or doctors office stickers. A nice sheet of fun stickers that fits in the card you send will suffice (the sheet could be trimmed to fit IMO, as long as it still looks great and has the theme of generous giving in mind. They do not have to be Easter or Spring stickers-you can ask your pal for an idea or send something you couldn't pass up when you saw it in the store but felt guilty buying it for yourself...whatev.

Now for the *fine print* as if the any-bunny is still reading this...

To Join:
You must be able to fulfill all of the above requirements.

Your i-trader must be 20 or above.

You MUST AGREE to post when you mail AND when you receive and as in a previous FREE swap, let's post what our FREE is too for added fun;-)!

Please leave feedback for your match ups once rec'vd.
You need a current updated wish list posted to ride. If your list is very short and specific, please don't join this train, unless you just love to make rockin' envies and really don't care what you get, in which case please denote that when you join...I can't imagine such a couponing life;-). If there's something you don't need multi's of, please note it as well. Please also plan on reading your pals WL closely and do not send what they say they can't use (ie they list $3/1 Huggies IP -this amount only- don't send $1.50 blinkies)

This train is potluck which means you may not get 30 coupons from your WL in each envie. But, make it your goal to make a nice envie that will really brighten someone's quite possibly rainy day.

No baby, no pet, no meds, no oddball products that very few members use like depends unless you have an exact wl match (you know the kind). If someone says they can use cat food frees, do not include regular cat food, unless it is an extra (as in over the 30 required).

Limit of 1 of each coupon unless it is an exact match to a wish list. If you have and exact wish list match, then duplicates are encouraged!!! again, more than 1 of something is OK if its "extra".

No coupon including the free should be expiring for at least 2 weeks from the time your pal is RECEIVING their envie. So if you live in California and your pal is in Virginia, make sure you are giving your pal plenty of time to use those precious q's...(one caveat to this would be if your pal has asked for specific q's that are expiring on a certain date for a sale and they say, PLEASE send regardless as long as they'll get here by XX).

Printables are great to send if the member can use them.

Store specific coupons are only OK if they are on the WL.

BTFE's, Coke Codes, Pepsi Codes are all great to include if they are wish list items.

Rebates and TMF forms are GREAT to include. Watch state restrictions.

Watch your postage as this envie *WILL be more than one stamp to send*.

If for any reason, any of your envie is not received, you will be asked to re-send at the 2 week point.
Joining this train is your agreement to this rule.
Also an envie not posted as received at the 2 week point will be marked as received.

Sign-ups will be taken through Friday 4.1.11 no kiddin'
Match-ups will be posted on Sunday 4.3.11
Mail-date will be on or before Wednesday 4.6.11



...but wait-there's more!!!!



And the twist you've been waiting for....drum-roll pleeeaaaassseeeee!
