SUMMARY OF THE BASICS.

There is a full thread on how coupon trains work, but here's a summary:

I'm coordinating, so I will send off a pile of coupons to one member of the train, along a pre-agreed on route, then that person removes coupons they want and replace them with their own unused coupons. They send that envelope (or package, we just had one that was at least 3 inches thick!) to the next person, who does the same.

As each person receives, they post in the link for their train, then again when it goes out, so everyone knows where it is and when to expect it.

Each member can also submit a "wish list" of coupons they need that are hard to find, or products they use constantly, etc. Members keep an eye out for those coupons and send them on as it goes around.
