If you wish to join a coupon train, please PM me and we will get you added. You must have more than 50 posts and be a member of Gotta Deal for at least 2 months.
Light Cargo Train “Rules Of The Ride”:
1. Send to the person below you on the train list included in each envelope.
2. Take out as many coupons as you want, but be sure to replace them with the same number of coupons.
3. Do not put expired or very close to expiring coupons into the envelope. Example if a coupon expires June 30th, please remove the coupon at least by the 20th of that month. If you wish to keep it in the train, it is extra weight, not part of the required amount for the train.
4. Please do not flood the envelope with coupon duplicates. No more than 3 of the same coupon.
5. If you no longer wish to be in a train, please cross your name off the list and PM me (Bethanykay6).
6. You have 2 days to go through the envelope and decide which coupons you are taking/replacing.
7. Post to this thread when you receive the Train and again when it is going out. This helps all riders track the train. Please make a habit of doing this. If you have to, subscribe to this thread that way you receive emails to remind you. This is how we keep track of where each of the trains are.
8. This is a Circle Track Train, so the last person on the list will send the first.
9. If 2 Trains become missing at your stop without explanation you will be off the Coupon Train, you will be removed from the lists and not be allowed to participate in other Trains.
10. NO Prilosec or Nexium coupons allowed! Try to minimize the photo coupons from magazines as well as diaper.com coupon codes as those are available to everyone on the web.
11. If there is coupons that you need or would like to see, please post so we know to add those to the trains.
LETS KEEP THESE TRAINS GOING AND HAVE FUN DOIN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lilquiet 4-19-2008, 10:43 AM I still haven't received a train from ssf. It's been over a week. I'll just create a new train and send it to kselzer. Are these trains going to be numbered?
bethanykay6 4-19-2008, 12:39 PM It would be great if they could be numbered. That way we know where each of the trains are and where they are getting stuck or lost at.
Start yours at number one. Next person to post that they are sending a train out...do number 2 nad so on and so forth PLEASE POST IF YOU SENDING A TRAIN OUT!
chefpatty 4-20-2008, 4:39 PM There doesn't seem to be too much action with this train. I'm afraid most of the trains are just not being passed along.
to get it going again, and since we seem to be starting fresh, I think it would be a good idea if anyone who can send out a new train.
I'll send out a new train tomorrow to Kieransmummy and label it Train #2 using the new list.
Hopefully people who don't want to do it anymore will ask to be taken off the list so it isn't ruined for those who still want to be involved. :)
bethanykay6 4-20-2008, 6:16 PM that is why i want to number the trains. that way we can track each one every time it moves and wherever they are getting lost at we can get them fixed.
hopefully now that the list is new and fresh maybe the trains will start moving again
chefpatty 4-20-2008, 7:35 PM Thanks for all your work Bethany!! We do appreciate you helping with our train. :)
kselzer 4-21-2008, 4:00 PM Thanks for all your work Bethany!! We do appreciate you helping with our train. :)
I second that - thanks Bethany!! :)
I think that I have enough to start a train - I'll look tonight and try to get one compiled. I will post if/when I get one out & will number accordingly.
lilquiet 4-21-2008, 7:43 PM train 1 on it's way to kselzer
kieransmummy 4-22-2008, 3:31 PM Got train #2 from Chefpatty today. I will mail out to sneakers1234 tomorrow.
kselzer 4-23-2008, 9:13 AM train 1 on it's way to kselzer
oops - no i won't start another train now then. Don't want to get them bunched up already. :)
tinydancer34 4-23-2008, 3:31 PM I think I can scrounge up enough for a train - that would be 3 going at once. Should I start one and send to chefpatty?
chefpatty 4-23-2008, 6:07 PM That would be great. Than at least we would have three. I have a feeling that all the other trains are lost.......:(
bethanykay6 4-23-2008, 6:35 PM yea, i think they are too......if people would post if they have one we could figure out where they are. or at least when they last sent one out so we could find them.
i would go ahead and start another one and make sure to label it with a number and put a new list in there!
I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK YOU GUYS DO TO KEEP THE TRAINS GOIN!
lilquiet 4-26-2008, 9:26 AM If kselzer doesn't receive train 1 by May 1 I'll send out a replacement train.
kselzer 4-27-2008, 12:40 AM If kselzer doesn't receive train 1 by May 1 I'll send out a replacement train.
I got it last night, sorry didn't have time to post until now. I'll get it out first thing Monday :) - and will post when I do.
bethanykay6 4-27-2008, 10:02 AM OK so here are the train locations that I have figured out so far..I will add to the list when more post where the trains are at
tinydancer34---------Train #1--------chefpatty Mailed 5/2
Kasha---------Train #2--------Omo Mailed 4/30
Bethanykay6----Train #6-----Kieransmummy Mailed 5/2
sneakers1234 4-27-2008, 5:56 PM Have train #2. Will mail to Kasha tomorrow, 4/28.
sneakers1234 4-28-2008, 9:02 AM Have train #2. Will mail to Kasha tomorrow, 4/28.
Train to Kasha mailed at Post office this morning, 4/28
kselzer 4-29-2008, 2:22 PM stopping by to say I sent out train #1 yesterday :)
bethanykay6 4-29-2008, 2:26 PM Does Anyone Else Have A Train Or Know Where They Are???????
Nothing here in several weeks.
kasha0601 4-30-2008, 9:24 AM Nothing here in several weeks.
Not to worry, I just got #2 in the mail yesterday. Will drop it off on my lunch break.
tinydancer34 5-1-2008, 10:16 PM Got train #1 today. Whoever put the Starbucks coupon in - a big THANK YOU! We go through frappuccinos like there's no tomorrow, LOL.
bethanykay6 5-1-2008, 10:44 PM i have enough coupons, I think I am goin to start a train tomarrow. Im not going to join in, but just get a new train going so I can personally track where it is at all times, so I can figure out why the darn things are gone.
I will label it train #6. And I will send it to ssf.
lilquiet 5-2-2008, 7:53 AM ssf hasn't been on since 2-29-2008. maybe you should start the train with someone else. the last train between me and ssf was lost :(
bethanykay6 5-2-2008, 10:45 AM do you think we should take her off? I will start with someone else
sneakers1234 5-2-2008, 11:32 AM She rarely posts, but was keeping trains going. The rules say you have to post & if we've had lost ones, there's no way to tell where stuff is when they don't post. You can remove her, see if she realizes it.
kselzer 5-2-2008, 11:45 AM Hey everyone I will be on vacation from May 7-18 so please skip me on the trains for those dates. I also sent lilquiet a PM since she is the once that sends to me. Thanks!!
bethanykay6 5-2-2008, 2:07 PM OK I sent out a train today. Im not joining in, but I want to get more trains going here since there were only two. I labeled it train #6 so that way I can remember that this is the one that I sent out. I sent it to Kieransmummy.
I received train #2 from Kasha0601 today (thanks!). The address list in it is current. I marked through ssf's name (for now, at least). I've got it all set to go out to EMColeman tomorrow.
bethanykay6 5-3-2008, 9:29 AM ok so SSF PM'd me and she says she wants to stay on the train. what do you guys think? PM ME PLEASE AND LET ME KNOW BEFORE I OKAY HER.
lilquiet 5-4-2008, 4:41 PM i received a train from ssf yesterday. will send to tinydancer tomorrow. i will number this train 3.
sneakers1234 5-4-2008, 8:40 PM ok so SSF PM'd me and she says she wants to stay on the train. what do you guys think? PM ME PLEASE AND LET ME KNOW BEFORE I OKAY HER.
Although she doesn't always post, she has been consistent in mailing them out, so I say OK.
bethanykay6 5-5-2008, 9:22 AM ok I have had more yes's than no's. So I will say let's keep her on the train until further problems arise. I will let her know that she has to post.
Im going to figure up the new train locations and everyone will get a PM about keepin SSF on the train.
OK so here are the train locations that I have figured out so far..I will add to the list when more post where the trains are at
chefpatty---------Train #1--------Kieransmummy Mailed 5/19
lilquiet--------Train #2-------- tinydancer Mailed 5/17
Omo----Train #6----- EMColeman1 Mailed 5/16
lilquiet---------Train #3-------tinydancer Mailed 5/5
kieransmummy------Train #8------sneakers1234 Mailed 5/16
kieransmummy 5-5-2008, 1:12 PM Bethanykay6----Train #6-----Kieransmummy Mailed 5/2
5/5
Recieced train today, will mail out tomorrow.
EMColeman1 5-7-2008, 10:49 PM Received Train #2 today. Will post when I mail it out tomorrow. :2drunk:
bethanykay6 5-8-2008, 12:23 AM Ok so here is the deal. I asked SSF to come on here and post and also to PM me back that she wants to stay on and is still interested in the train. I haven't heard a word back from her since Monday morning. So Im keeping her off the train until she posts and PM's me back. If she can't post then I can't have her on the train. We need people to be able to post when trains are coming and going so we can keep track of them. So until further notice...she is off.
tinydancer34 5-8-2008, 10:26 AM Well, I just found the train #1 envelope that DH was supposed to mail out for me. Sorry guys! It's on its way today to chefpatty. I will make up another train to go out as well. Who should I send to? Do we have a #3 or 5 train out there somewhere?
lilquiet 5-8-2008, 11:16 AM There is a # 3 train. No train #5 though.
Train updates are in post #34.
Way to go bethanykay6. :gdthums: You're doing a great job.
EMColeman1 5-8-2008, 5:12 PM Train #2 on its way to lilquiet....I'm not sure if it made the cut off for pick up at the post box though. :g_think:
sneakers1234 5-9-2008, 8:13 AM REceived train #6. THANKS for the victoria secret card! Going to get my free panties today before it expires!
Added lots of non-inserts.
Kasha away, so I skipped her and it was mailed from the PO this morning to OMO.
bethanykay6 5-9-2008, 10:03 AM Does anyone have enough to start another train? I would like to get 5 or 6 going if possible. Let me know! Just post that you made one up and who you sent it to. THANKS GUYS!!
kieransmummy 5-9-2008, 4:48 PM Does anyone have enough to start another train? I would like to get 5 or 6 going if possible. Let me know! Just post that you made one up and who you sent it to. THANKS GUYS!!
I will start a new one after the weekend, I will post when I get it out.

sneakers1234 5-14-2008, 9:21 AM REceived train #6. THANKS for the victoria secret card! Going to get my free panties today before it expires!
Added lots of non-inserts.
Kasha away, so I skipped her and it was mailed from the PO this morning to OMO.
Has this arrived? 5 days from NJ to Virginia?
lilquiet 5-14-2008, 12:49 PM should i create a replacement train #3? it shouldn't take more than a week right?
sneakers1234 5-14-2008, 1:01 PM should i create a replacement train #3? it shouldn't take more than a week right?
Well, it looks like #3 and #6 haven't gotten there... or their owners just haven't posted.... I'd wait before sending a replacement.
If this is going to work, the riders MUST post. The heavy train works really well because everyone posts and no one flakes out.
bethanykay6 5-14-2008, 1:27 PM Yes and that is why some people are not on the train...WE NEED PEOPLE TO POST WHEN THEY RECEIVE AND WHEN THEY SEND.
Im going to send a remainder PM out today that everyone MUST respond back to me.
tinydancer34 5-14-2008, 2:07 PM Received a train on Monday. Will be sending out tomorrow. I can start another train. I'll make mine #5, and I will post when I send it out. bethany - who do you want me to send to?
tinydancer34 5-14-2008, 2:08 PM Well, I just found the train #1 envelope that DH was supposed to mail out for me. Sorry guys! It's on its way today to chefpatty. I will make up another train to go out as well. Who should I send to? Do we have a #3 or 5 train out there somewhere?
Has this arrived yet?
tinydancer34 5-14-2008, 2:09 PM There is a # 3 train. No train #5 though.
Train updates are in post #34.
Way to go bethanykay6. :gdthums: You're doing a great job.
Sorry, I meant a #4 instead of 3!
sneakers1234 5-14-2008, 3:31 PM OMO-- have you received train #6 yet? was mailed on the 9th from the (very big, central ) post office...
chefpatty 5-14-2008, 9:08 PM Has this arrived yet?
No, not yet. :(
OMO-- have you received train #6 yet? was mailed on the 9th from the (very big, central ) post office...
Yes, I received it yesterday. Thanks. I will mail it out tomorrow to EMColeman1.
bethanykay6 5-15-2008, 2:30 AM I sent a PM out to everyone on this train. I know one person is out on vacation, so she won't be able to respond right away, but I need everyone else to please respond to me.
We need to figure out why and how these trains disappear. So please do your part and post when you get the train and when you mail it out. If this is difficult for you to do, please remove yourself from the train. Many people spend too much time, effort and money on these coupon trains and take them very seriously. So please do your part!
If anyone has any concerns or questions please feel free to let me know! THANKS FOR ALL THE HARD WORK!!!
EMColeman1 5-15-2008, 9:16 AM :oshould i create a replacement train #3? it shouldn't take more than a week right?
So sorry, somehow train #2 fell between seats in the car and never went into the mail box with the rest of the mail. I took it to the post office yesterday and handed to the gentleman behind the counter. Hopefully you will see it tomorrow.
kieransmummy 5-16-2008, 4:56 PM I mailed a new train #8 (as requested) to sneakers1234
chefpatty 5-17-2008, 6:06 PM I received train #3 today. It's a shame though. It took so long for it to get to me, almost all the coupons are very close to expiration.
I'm basically replacing the entire train. It will go out to Kieransmummy on Monday.
sneakers1234 5-17-2008, 10:25 PM :o
So sorry, somehow train #2 fell between seats in the car and never went into the mail box with the rest of the mail. I took it to the post office yesterday and handed to the gentleman behind the counter. Hopefully you will see it tomorrow.

bethanykay6 5-20-2008, 1:27 PM Doing good you guys!!! Keep up the great posting and mailing!!! I will be sending another train out, just so we have enough going around. I will post later who it goes to, I have to put it together yet.

chefpatty 5-23-2008, 2:25 PM How many people on this train are looking for baby, cat or dog food coupons? I don't need any of them so I'm always on the lookout for good ones. (free, high amount off, or only have to buy one.) I just don't want to waste the "coupon space" in the envelope if there isn't a need........:)
Once everyone responds I'll make a list with needs. Please be specific if you only use certain brands.
sneakers1234 5-23-2008, 2:55 PM no dog cat or baby here!
kieransmummy 5-23-2008, 3:37 PM How many people on this train are looking for baby, cat or dog food coupons? I don't need any of them so I'm always on the lookout for good ones. (free, high amount off, or only have to buy one.) I just don't want to waste the "coupon space" in the envelope if there isn't a need........:)
I have a cat, but no dogs or babies.
No dog, cat, or baby coupons needed. Thanks.
bethanykay6 5-23-2008, 11:55 PM cat coupons...only dry cat food, treats and litter...no dog at all, no baby at all
bethanykay6 5-24-2008, 12:02 AM PLEASE VOTE FOR THE COUPONS YOU WANT! THAT WAY EVERYONE CAN SEE WHAT NEEDS TO BE IN THE TRAINS!!!
If there are specific coupons you need, please post. Someone might have them and not be using them.
chefpatty 5-24-2008, 6:57 AM If there are specific coupons you need, please post. Someone might have them and not be using them.
I'm always on the lookout for soymilk coupons. (any brand) TIA :)
tinydancer34 5-24-2008, 8:46 AM no dog cat or baby coupons here, but if anyone has organic coupons I'll gladly take them!
kasha0601 5-24-2008, 5:56 PM No dog, cat, or baby coupons needed. Thanks.
Too late. I already sent the train, and actually lot of cat, dog and baby coupons in it. Sorry. For next one I will put more different coupons.
kasha0601 5-24-2008, 5:56 PM For me organic and vegetarian.
kasha0601 5-24-2008, 5:57 PM Bethany I just got #4 from You. Will take it to PO tuesday.
chefpatty 5-24-2008, 7:56 PM Too late. I already sent the train, and actually lot of cat, dog and baby coupons in it. Sorry. For next one I will put more different coupons.
That's why I thought it would be helpful if we knew what people were looking for. Especially those that are right below you on the list.
So far I have:
The need for baby, dog, or cat coupons:
chefpatty -none (soymilk)
kieransmummy- cat (kid's snack foods, breakfast items like waffles, kid's cereal)
sneakers1234- none (ice cream, bacon, cheese, nabisco crackers)
Kasha 0601 (organic, vegetarian)
OMO- none
EMColeman1- ?
lilquiet-?
ksilzer-Tidy cat litter (GM cereal, cheerios crunch)
tinydancer34- none (organic)
So as of now we at least know our train doesn't need any baby or dog coupons.
sneakers1234 5-27-2008, 7:59 AM my requests: ice cream, bacon, cheese, nabisco crackers, hummus
kieransmummy 5-27-2008, 1:45 PM My requests Kids snack foods, frozen breakfast items like waffles etc, kiddie type cereals.
I received train #8 yesterday. It will be mailed out tomorrow to EMColeman.
EMColeman1 5-28-2008, 9:00 PM Received train 7 today.....I will post when sent to lilquiet.
sneakers1234 5-29-2008, 7:50 AM Recieved train #3 today, I will mail it out to sneakers1234 tomorrow.
Received train #3 yesterday. Mailed already from the PO today, 5/29, to Kasha
kselzer 5-29-2008, 9:19 AM received train #2 today. will send to kselzer tomorrow.
haven't seen this yet...hopefully not lost in postal world. if I don't receive anything by saturday I'll make up a new envelope to replace it.
kselzer 5-29-2008, 9:23 AM Coupons I can use: Cheerios Crunch (i love this stuff!!!) or GM coupon where this is included in list of cereals, Weight Watchers, Smart Ones, Stouffers, Healthy Choice, Mott's applesauce, Hebrew National hot dogs, ore-ida fries. Those are the ones I can think of right now - otherwise I match up the coupons to the ads.
No dog or kid coupons and only Tidy cat litter coupons for the cat category.
chefpatty 5-29-2008, 10:05 AM Got the train today from lilquiet. Will post when I send out. Thanks to whoever added the frappuccino coupon.

lilquiet 5-31-2008, 9:24 AM I'm confused, on 5/22 lilquiet posted she was sending #2 to me - how do you have it :confused:
i'm confused too. :confused:
but as long as the trains are on track no worries.
bethanykay6 5-31-2008, 10:45 AM it might have an old list in the envelope? All lists in the envelope should have an date at the top under Light Cargo Train 2. This was the list sent out by me. If there is no date---PRINT OUT A NEW LIST! Thanks guys!
kasha0601 5-31-2008, 11:05 AM Received #3 yesterday from sneakers, thanks for Egglands Best and other coupons. Will mail it to OMO monday.

Put in new list dated 6/2/08. Make sure you write the train number you are sending on teh top of the list. That way we all know what train it is without the envelope.
tHANKS GUYS!
OK, I got an envelope Saturday and am mailing it out this morning. I have labeled it #6 & put in the new list.
bethanykay6 6-2-2008, 11:14 AM oh yea citrixgirl is sending me coupons to "prove" she can do the train. I will send that out to someone when I get it. It will be train #5 to get us all evened up. That will put you guys at 8 trains going.
Received Train #4 sometime over the weekend. It is going out today to citrixgirl.
EMColeman1 6-2-2008, 5:34 PM Train #7 mailed to SSF today. Received train #8 as well.....will send out tomorrow.
citrixgirl 6-2-2008, 5:53 PM Received Train #4 sometime over the weekend. It is going out today to citrixgirl.

I don't believe those are linked to anything.
EMColeman1 6-3-2008, 9:11 AM Train #8 is on its way to lilquiet. :)
I will be unavailable to send trains out between June 6th and June 15th. Please skip me between those dates.
Thanks.
chefpatty 6-4-2008, 4:37 PM I still haven't received train #1. And since tinydancer received it May 19th I'm thinking if I ever do get it, it will be most expired like the other train I received so late. :(
Bethany- I'm thinking we should wait a few more days but we might have to consider Train #1 derailed....:(
Maybe you should move me on the list. for some reason it just takes a very long time for the trains to go from Pitt to Phila. :confused:

By the list, it wasnt mailed to you until May 27. Bet you have it tomorrow!! (where it was from the 19-27....?)
By the 19th of the month there should no longer be May expirys in the train anyway.
chefpatty 6-4-2008, 6:59 PM By the list, it wasnt mailed to you until May 27. Bet you have it tomorrow!! (where it was from the 19-27....?)
Yea, I figured if I posted this today than surely it will come tomorow! :tongue1:
(I assume tinydancer had it from the 19th until the 27th.)
bethanykay6 6-4-2008, 10:15 PM PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE ALL OLD LISTS FROM THESE TRAIN ENVELOPES. THE NEW LIST SHOULD BE MARKED WITH A DATE UNDER THE WORDS LIGHT CARGO TRAIN #2.
SSF IS NO longer on this train. So makes you guys are checking your PM's and printing off new lists when I send them out.
DELETE ALL OLD TRAIN PM'S.
citrixgirl 6-5-2008, 1:47 PM I got train number 2 today.... I could if u really wanted mail it tomorrow or I can wait till Monday so that I can add coupons from this weekends paper.... let me know if i dont hear a hey u biatch mail it now(lol) I will wait till Monday
ohh yeah to the person that put the organic coupons in the train major score
another question can we add computer printed coupons????
sneakers1234 6-5-2008, 2:51 PM Train 2? Did kieransmommy sent to Citrixgirl or sneakers on 6/2? Or is it train 4 from OMO?
Anyway, waiting til Monday is more than the 2-3 day rule. It should be out by Sat.
kieransmummy 6-5-2008, 3:20 PM Train 2? Did kieransmommy sent to Citrixgirl or sneakers on 6/2? Or is it train 4 from OMO?

We have 2-3 days to mail it I believe, you need to replace the amount of coupons you remove.
We can all print coupons direct from our own computer if we need them, I don't see the point in adding them to the train.
citrixgirl 6-5-2008, 3:44 PM sorry it was number 4( I am only on one that I know of) that I am on..... As for replacing them I took 7 and added 27... my paper guy adds extras in my paper because i tip him at Christmas really well...

Actually, you're on them all now because bethany sent out a new list so each train will get replaced with the new list, and you're on it!
So soon, you'll be getting LOTS of trains!
Please post when that envelope gets to the mail. Frequently folks say "will mail tomorrow" and then something happens it doesn't get in the mail and the next one down the line thinks it's lost, but it actually hasn't been mailed. So it's always good to confirm when it really gets out.

hmm if that is the case maybe i better send this one out and save my coupons from this weekend for the next one I get..
chefpatty 6-6-2008, 7:01 AM another question can we add computer printed coupons????
I would say yes if there is a limit you can print out. For example I love the Activa cereal and there is a printable $3 off coupon. But you can only print one.
So I would say if there is a good coupon like that and you don't want it put it in!!
sneakers1234 6-6-2008, 8:00 AM hmm if that is the case maybe i better send this one out and save my coupons from this weekend for the next one I get..
YES! Please send it out! The next one #2, is already on its way to Kasha and with OMO on vacation, you're next.
We don't like them bunching up because then the coupons tend to be all the same !!!
sneakers1234 6-6-2008, 8:17 AM Received train #2. This train made the whole loop so I removed coupons I know I put in. Also lightened up the June expiry with longer dates so no one person gets stuck.
On the way to Kasha.
citrixgirl 6-6-2008, 12:31 PM YES! Please send it out! The next one #2, is already on its way to Kasha and with OMO on vacation, you're next.
We don't like them bunching up because then the coupons tend to be all the same !!!
ok the envolope is in the door.... lol
I live in apartment complex but my mail get delivered right through the mail slot on my door and my mail man will take mail that i leave in the slot(as long as I remember to put postage on it)... the train is on its way to Roselle nj....
was here when the post man go here so i know it went out today....and more then enough postage on it
tinydancer34 6-6-2008, 1:58 PM Received train #6 today.
lilquiet 6-6-2008, 6:17 PM received train 8 today. on it's way to kselzer. i printed up labels this time so it should go smooth. *fingers crossed*
bethanykay6 6-7-2008, 12:49 AM How many are interested in photo coupons? From like jcpenny sears stuff like that? If nobody wants them, lets put a ban on those as well. Need your ideas on that.
Received Citrixgirl's envelope today. I am sending it to kieransmummy as train #9 will go out on Monday, because I won't be able to make it to post office tomarrow. Im doing a garage sale for our daycare..have to be there from 645am to noon and then tearing down till two and our post office closes at 1030 on saturdays. So I will get it out on MOnday!
THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL THE GREAT WORK YOU ARE DOING WITH THIS TRAIN! I REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE IT!
sneakers1234 6-7-2008, 5:57 AM NO photo for me. Our paper is loaded with them.
chefpatty 6-7-2008, 6:23 AM NO photo for me. Our paper is loaded with them.
Ditto
citrixgirl 6-7-2008, 7:43 AM just for the newbie what is the current ban list for the trains?
chefpatty 6-7-2008, 9:02 AM Not that it's banned per say, but we did a survey for this train and there isn't a need for baby or dog coupons on this train.
citrixgirl 6-7-2008, 2:22 PM Not that it's banned per say, but we did a survey for this train and there isn't a need for baby or dog coupons on this train.

I will be mailing out a replacement train today to Chefpatty marked Train #1. Please post when you get it.

So what is wrong with the post office between lilquiet & me :confused: Hopefully I see one soon, don't want to get them bunched up. And we rock!! Go train #2 :D
sneakers1234 6-19-2008, 9:24 AM 9 Days between NJ and Ohio is pretty long. I wouldn't be surprised if #4 is gone.
#7 must also be dead.
citrixgirl 6-19-2008, 9:49 AM if u look back through the post it takes about 10 to 12 days the go from lilquit to kselzer.. so she should be getting one any day now.

I received #5 from Paytonroxler last night. It is going out today to citrixgirl.
kselzer 6-19-2008, 10:45 PM Train #4 finally arrived - guess I just had to complain first & then it would show up, lol!
I will get it back out tomorrow morning.

Ok, than I'm going to complain about not receiving Train #1 so it will show up today. :tongue1:
lilquiet 6-20-2008, 5:04 PM received train 3 from citrixgirl. sent back out to kselzer today.
took out all the june and early july expires.
i overstuffed the train. it's about 4 ounces. and put in a larger envelope so hopefully it won't get eaten and kselzer won't have to replace as many.

Check PM's. I have sent out a new train list. Please delete all PM's from the past about this train. Please update trains with new lists. All lists must have date of 6/20/08 in them. Please welcome Fuzzywuzzy86 to the train. They were a part of train 3, which has now been derailed. They are the only one to be added to this train, they took the place of Lilquiet.
This train is rocking and rolling. If I find that all of a sudden it stops in certain places, I will not hesitate to remove the rider causing problems. We all put alot of money and time into these trains and hate to see them disappear due to selfish people.
citrixgirl 6-21-2008, 3:42 PM ok I got 2-5 in the mail from OMO it has an old list so I will print out a new list and send it back out monday.

Took out all the 6/30. there really shouldn't be any 6/30 expirys in these trains now.

bethanykay6 6-25-2008, 7:58 AM I will see what I can do about #1. I think I have enough coupons to mail out another train. We are going to the zoo today and its a 2 1/2 hour drive, so I won't be back till way later today...I will see about coupons getting to you chefpatty!
sneakers1234 6-25-2008, 8:09 AM Mailed train #8 to sneaker (my printers out of ink, so I couldn't print a new address list)
I have a new copy of the list ready to go when I get this one!

8 trains is plenty. too many means too many repeat coupons. I would just let this one die, my 2c.

I'm not complaining about not getting it. just letting you know. Usually when stuff like this has happened I just start a new one. But this train has been going so well lately I don't have tons of extra coupons. But that's a good thing!! :D

I would say just let it take it's normal route no reason to mess it up. I am sure another one will come through sooner or later. Also I would like to put out there now and I will try to put another reminder up closer that on sept 2 I will be going in for a c section so I will be offline for about 2 weeks as I will be in the hospital for a bit them home with a new born and and a 4 year old.

Paytonroxler 6-25-2008, 4:51 PM Hi Guys!!
I rec'd a train today, Wed., June 25th. It will go in the mail tomorrow, Thurs., June 26th. It is on it's way to you OMO!!
Paytonroxler 6-25-2008, 4:54 PM I see there may have been a mix up with the rider list. I thought it was the most recent as well. So, it is already sealed and on its way to OMO. Sorry, I didn't read this first so I could straighten it out!!

if it came from me then it was the most recent list and that was train 2-5 although it probably did not say it because I forget to label them...lol

I still follow you on the new mailing list, so all is well.
I'll be out of town this weekend, so there might be a delay in me sending it back out. Sorry. But I'll jump right on it as soon as I get back home.

I am resending train 1 out. I feel that even though there are 9 trains going right now. At any moment 2 or 3 of those could get lost at the post office and we would be knocked back down. I want to keep these things going. I will not have more than 10 trains going at one time. So that will be the limit.
Also---can we please start posting WHICH train/car you are recieving and which you are sending. Im a little confused on the last couple of posts and have NO IDEA how to update the list as there a couple of trains on the way to some of you and you posted that you got a train, but which one? If its not labeled---LABEL IT. ON the list so that way it doesn't get tossed.
kselzer 6-26-2008, 7:57 AM received a train yesterday - didn't have a chance to look at what # it was. I will look through it tonight and update this post later :)
This is train #3 - I'm sending this out this morning with the new list. I think I have another train at the post office as I got a postage due notice...
sneakers1234 6-26-2008, 8:04 AM Received #8.
Removed ALL the 6/30. There should NOT be ANY 6/30 expirys in the trains at this point. Everyone should be removing as the 2 week mark approaches and not adding any so no one rider gets stuck.
Train on its way to Kasha from PO already.
lilquiet 6-26-2008, 11:17 AM This is train #3 - I'm sending this out this morning with the new list. I think I have another train at the post office as I got a postage due notice...
Darn the one time I didn't go to the po to mail the envie. But I did use 4 stamps. :confused:
Train 3 was large enough to be seperated into 2 seperate trains considering this is the 'light' train and that was the train I overstuffed and it was 4 ounces. I was assuming that most coupons in train 2 were expired or very close to expiring that is why I overstuffed train 3 and sent in a larger envelope than normal. The lag between me sending out the trains and you receiving was just nuts.
Paytonroxler 6-26-2008, 11:33 AM The train has been mailed. I am sorry that I did not mention it by number but there wasn't a number on there! I have no idea what # is should be. I apologize.
Paytonroxler 6-27-2008, 1:55 PM Hello all,
Just wanted everyone to know that I received 2LCT #6 today. I have already gone through and this will go in the mail tomorrow. Also, had a list dated 6/16. I updated with the list that is dated 6/20.
Thanks!!
Paytonroxler 6-28-2008, 5:43 AM Train #6 went in the mail today, Sat., 6/28. It is on it's way to you OMO!!

I received a train on Friday from Paytonroxler (Thanks!). I'm not entirely sure which one it is, maybe #6? Anyway, it is going in the mail to Fuzzywazzy tomorrow.
citrixgirl 6-29-2008, 11:50 PM I received a train on Friday from Paytonroxler (Thanks!). I'm not entirely sure which one it is, maybe #6? Anyway, it is going in the mail to Fuzzywazzy tomorrow.
if it has the current list but is not labeled then yeah i would say it is 6 because i printed out the new list but did not label it, still a newbee at this, there should be another one coming to you as well.

I picked up train #2 at the post office Saturday. I'm going to do the above since most are expireds - put the rest of train #3 in it. I will get it out tomorrow & post when I do :)
bethanykay6 6-30-2008, 11:23 AM Im not thinking the one that OMO got was train 6 because that was just mailed out on Saturday. So Im thinking this might be an unmarked train? If so.......we need to get it labeled.
Are we combining train 2 and 3? Are they at the same location? Please clarify who has what train and if they are going together or not>
chefpatty 6-30-2008, 1:07 PM What's going on with fuzzywuzzy? She has 3 trains coming her way with at least one that should be there by now but I don't even see a post by her. :confused:

I will PM her today and see whats going on. Halt all activity to her as of right now.

#3 was mailed from me to tinydancer & tinydancer mailed again today to the next person (see post above mine)
#2 I just got from the PO because it had postage due (and I can only go to the PO on Saturday, as that is the only day/time it is open when i am not working). #3 was really overstuffed with bunches of coupons. I pulled them out to go back down to 2 oz. #2 is almost all expired since it got stuck at the PO, so I am using the overfilled ones from #3 to resupply #2. Did that make sense???... bottom line is I will get #2 back out tomorrow :)

Oh no, that's not good with trains going her way.
And, to anybody new.. this train has a rule on expired coupons. (seems the baby train doesn't) As we near mid month, you should replace coupons with longer dates, so no one person is stuck removing all of them. Usually you will see the same coupons come out from the same manufacturers as coupons near expiry.
And by the 15th or so, all end of month coupons should be gone, unless they're freebies or something you KNOW the next guy uses.

How is this possible? She just recently joined the train and she hasn't logged on since last April???? :confused::confused::confused:
bethanykay6 6-30-2008, 10:44 PM she was added i think because of the split of train 3. im gonna have to do some research, this could be a total MY BAD. If so, I have PLENTY of coupons to restart these trains if they become in the dark hole beyond recovery.
Just want to apologize a head of time if this is the case. I guess I can see where my problems were on train 3.

I have replaced two of trains that were going to fuzzywuzzy that I believe to be lost. If they show up, well then we will just have them extra on the train. She is now OFF of the train. Please cross her name off of the lists. Do NOT SEND any more trains to her. Thanks guys.
citrixgirl 7-1-2008, 1:16 PM received 2 8 in the mail today
chefpatty 7-1-2008, 2:31 PM Recieved train #4 today, there was nothing I could use (I have never had that happen before)
Train #4 wasn't good for me either. But the one before was great. I figure it's just hit or miss........
sneakers1234 7-1-2008, 2:54 PM Train #4 wasn't good for me either. But the one before was great. I figure it's just hit or miss........
What are you gals looking for? It's always better when the person before you knows what you use.
kieransmummy 7-1-2008, 10:15 PM What are you gals looking for? It's always better when the person before you knows what you use.
#4 seems to to be mainly pharmacy, personal, make up, and not so commen food items. No kid food, frozen items, and everyday food items.
chefpatty 7-2-2008, 6:44 AM ..........and I'm sure like everyone else I consider a "good" coupon to be one that you only have to buy one item. My market triples up to 50 cents and doubles up to 99 cents. So 50 and 75 cent coupons off of one item is good for me. I'm always on the lookout for one item coupons that I don't need to put in the train.
I too don't use the makeup coupons but look more for the food coupons.
Not complaining though......like I said I usually can get a few coupons out of a train. Some envelopes are just going to be better than others. :)
sneakers1234 7-2-2008, 2:54 PM very good to know. I avoid canned/packaged foods (due to high BP) so always cut those coupons and put in the trains. Most trains are not heavy food, so I keep an eye out to try to balance them. No triples in NJ, only doubles, so I also like the 75c ones, which is why the train is good. I put in the 1/1 and take the .75/1, which works out better for me ! LOL.
I also CVS shop so always look for coupons that would correspond to their sales/ECBs.
sneakers1234 7-2-2008, 9:21 PM Received train #9, today, July 2.
Removed 27 coupons with a JUNE 30 or earlier date. These coupons should have been removed by June 20.
Another 12 or so expired JULY 5 or 6
There's no reason to spend money mailing expired coupons. If you don't have enough to replace, then just take the old ones out and tell us.
I basically redid the whole train, and won't have that many qs for the next one.
It is in the mail to Kasha from the big PO. But the PO is closed on Friday.
chefpatty 7-2-2008, 9:21 PM received train #3 today. In mailbox to go out tomorrow, 7/3.
citrixgirl 7-2-2008, 10:35 PM i see lots of talk about the expired coupons .... I would just like to rimind people that some of our troops and there families over seas can use coupons that are past date up to 6 months past date....
kieransmummy 7-2-2008, 10:54 PM Received train #9, today, July 2.
July 30 or earlier date. These coupons should have been removed by June 20.
.
Coupons expiring July 30th chould be by removed July 20th not June, why remove coupons that still have 6 or so weeks.
bethanykay6 7-3-2008, 7:16 AM There is no reason to be removing coupons that are July 30th expiration date. Those coupons don't need to be removed until JULY 20TH.
sneakers1234 7-3-2008, 7:46 AM There is no reason to be removing coupons that are July 30th expiration date. Those coupons don't need to be removed until JULY 20TH.
My typing error-- they were JUNE 30. And another 12 expired before JULY 6. Basically, I had to redo the whole train.

My typing error-- they were JUNE 30... and another 12 or so were JULY 5 or 6. You had the train before me... a lot were the June 30 P&Gs. Guess you didn't notice.
Basically, I redid the whole train. I added MIR and non-inserts, but I I have a lot less good coupons to add to the next one.
The 2 or 3 riders before me should have been slowly removing the JUNE 30s.
