Couponing Taken To The Next Level

Recently I found a couple of yahoo groups that go along with my latest financial forte into couponing. Couponing when done correctly is a great way to save a ton of green. Which in turn helps stretch your families budget.

Neither group allow trading. Instead they call themselves sharing groups. One is a national group and one is a Texas only group.

Coupon Co-op

This is a sharing group where friends meet to help one another.

Trading is not allowed OR necessary! We do not allow the 'sharing' of stamps. That is a trading commodity.

Please introduce yourself to the group. We look forward to meeting you. ;o)

Permanent wishlists, which are required within '4 days' after membership approval, are put into a File for each member, and you are also encouraged to request specific coupons whenever you need them.

In order to maintain your membership you are required to send out at least ONE sharing envie PER month.


Referrals in your signature line ONLY.

Or post in our coupon trading group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheTradersPlace

Your PERSONAL business website can be put into the Links Section. For Example: Tupperware, Avon, Scrapbooking, etc.

This is a friendly and chatty group, and we hope you enjoy it!

- Texas Couponers

However, I am not sure how active the Texas group is, as the moderators page Diva Girls Deals is no longer active. The domain name is available and a search in Google finds a blogspot page that hasn't been updated since 2010 and a facebook page that hasn't been updated since June of last year.

On the other Coupon Co-op is very active. I was required to post a coupon wishlist within four days and have already received what the group calls a coupon potluck from one of the members. I encourage everyone to check it out. I think it is going to be really neat. The local one claims to have meetings, but since there hasn't been any updates since June 2011, I am not sure if that is still accurate. If it is still active, expect that I will eventually be posting about them in a future post. Perhaps with pictures.

As for the Coupon Co-op here is the wishlist I posted with them:
