    That aside, I usually send extras unless I am rushing to get an envie out and don't have access to my extras. If I know someone is looking for something and I have it, I will include it. No one should be offended though if they hear someone got extras and they didn't. It was really nothing personal.

    I feel the trade is for what we were trading for not the extras and any feedback should be based on that. / [QUOTE]

    That pretty much sums it up for me. I'm not trying to shortchange anyone if I don't include extras, it just means I didn't have time to add any or didn't have access to them at the time of mailing. Sometimes I have a bunch of trades going at once and I'm just trying to keep them straight and out on time.

    Also, if someone really sends some great extras I'll note it in my feedback. Something like, 'Thanks for the easy trade and generous extras.' Just my way of acknowledging their extra effort.

    I can't believe someone on here would threaten to leave neutral feedback because no extras were included That is just mean-spirited and unfair IMHO.

    PPs have already answered but ill throw my answer in too. Who gets extras generally is not a personal thing. Unless of course theyve done me a fabulous favor and then I will make some extra effort most of the time.
    But like this morning I was cutting and mailing only what was asked for from yesterdays papers. I had no extras in here. My binders are in the car. So the only thing I had to work with was the inserts from yesterday. They were still whole so I wasnt going to chop them up to try to put in extras. And I gave the traders a very fair deal on some hot coupons.
    One trader did get some extras but that was b/c I had pulled 20 and she only needed 10 each so she got extra of one of her coupons.

    I am kinda surprised that some people would let extras dictate whether or not theyd trade with that person or not. I always felt it was a personal decision not a requirement.
    I love getting extras but I dont keep trck of who does or doesnt send them. As long as they are a fair honest trader I will trade with them again.

    I'm finding now in my trading experience that some people expect extras. I've got one private remark once that I was kind of rude for not sending extras, but they didn't threaten with neutral feedback.

    I try to send extras, but sometimes things get busy and I can't for whatever reason. Most ofthe time I don't have many extras to send. I work full time and don't get to the store when tearpads are prevelent most of the time. The feedback I figure is for having a sucessful trade where both ends were met.

    I think give extras is your personal choice. When I send off trades I try to send extras but sometime I don't have time. I'm chasing 2 little ones and the last thing on my mind is if the other trader is going to be mad cause I didn't send extras. Now I will say if I've traded with you before I'm definitely going to send extras.
