Please Join me for my first train!
Welcome to
The Forgotten Presidents train
We all know Washington, Lincoln, or Roosevelt
but who remembers Arthur, Fillmore or Polk?
With this train we will round robin a little history & coupon fun!
Newbies with a itrader of at least 5 with plenty of QUALITY coupons to share are welcome! please read all requirements. I know the list is long, but its to help ensure you know what is expected so all passengers have a great ride!!
Please make sure to read ALL info and requirements before joining.
You can only ride up to 5 trains at a time at HCW. If you are already on 5, you can catch the next one!
After reading this WHOLE thread, post below to ride and then PM me with your full name and mailing address
How it works:
This is a Round Robin train will run as quickly or as slowly as each one of us. It will include 6 riders so could take 3 to 6+ weeks depending on the dedication of each of us.
- You will choose a forgotton president, one that you feel we need to know more about. PM me with your pres of choice, WL & mailing info, etc.
- You will include a simple biography of your president of choice & hopefully a special fun fact of your president and 25 coupons matched to wishlist of trader as best as you can.
- As you receive your envies you will keep the presidential bio with the envie but add/subtract envies as needed to match wishlist & eliminate those not within the 2 week expiration date. This way we all get to discover something new about a Forgotton President.
- We will continue to SEND FORWARD the envies until we started are back home. 5 envies in total.
Early mail's out will be fine as soon as the match ups are done. Please remember to post as you mail out.
I will send out a rider list to each rider with the riders mailing info you will need to do your envies.
To Join:
You must be able to mail 5 envies with at least 25 q's in each one. & a presidential biographic summary
You must post when you mail and when you receive.
Please leave feedback for your match ups!!
You need a wish list posted to ride. If your list is very short and specific, other train riders will have a harder time matching your list. If there's something you don't need multi's of, note it.
This train is potluck which means you may not get 25 coupons from your WL in each envie. Although please try to match wish lists
No baby, no pet, no meds, no oddball products that very few members use like depends unless you have an exact wl match. If someone says they can use cat food frees, do not include regular cat food, unless it is an extra.
Examples of junk q's if you are unsure......Depends, Resturant q's, Poise, Diapers, vitamins, etc. If q's like these are not on the wish list it would be consideredjunk. So please send what you would want to receive..do unto others.
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"
printables are great to send if the member can use them. (Please remember- no photocopies!) & 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.
If for any reason, any of your envies are not received, you will be asked to re mail 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. THANKS!
