Frugal Mania

All Aboard!
Coupons! They are one of the most fun frugal practices that I use all the time, yet I know that a lot of people don’t share my enthusiasm for this free money. In order to hopefully change your mind, I want to invite you all to join in on the inaugural voyagle of the Frugal Mania Coupon Train!

Here’s how it works:

1. I am the conductor of this train. That means that I will start the journey by clipping tons of coupons, using what I can, and putting the rest in an envelope.

2. I will then send the envelope to the next stop on the coupon train, which could easily be your place!

3. You clip coupons and do the same thing I did. The only difference is that at each stop, the person receiving the coupon train will be responsible for checking the dates on any coupons that remain in the envelope and removing any that will expire in the next week.

4. At each stop, the recipient takes what the will use and adds what they don’t need, keeping the train in motion within 48 hours each time.

Unfortunately, this Coupon Train is limited to the Frugal Maniacs here in the United States, since the majority of coupons will only be applicable to this particular part of the world. Not to worry, you frugal foreigners, I will always be on the lookout for ways that you can save too!

In order to get this train out of the station and keep it in motion, we need at least ten scheduled stops to start. As the conductor, I will maintain the list of names and addresses for all participants and your information will only be revealed to the participant who will be sending the train to your station. In other words, it is safe and your info won’t be going all over the country, so jump on board!

How to Participate: All you have to do is send an email to the conductor (that’s me!) with the subject line “Coupon Train” and your name and address in the body of the email. I will respond with the name and address of the next stop on the train and you simply send the coupon train on to the next person. Simple, Frugal and FUN!

HOW TO WIN FREE STUFF: As a special incentive to all participants, a random coupon train participant will receive a special gift from Frugal Mania, just for being a part of the coupon train!
