      We have been tossing  this idea around since it was brought up last month. What we've come up with is , basically, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'!!    The best thing about our RAOK is the variety of things offered, coupons included.   Checking out the Feb. thread, only 1/4 of the posts mentioned any kind of coupons.  We don't think that's excessive, and it's easy enough to zip on past any posts that don't interest us.

   Another good point made was this - if we start a separate thread for this, do we then do one for , say, bookmarks, box tops,  tea,and on and on?  We try to keep our nice new RAOK forum as simple and clutter free as possible.   It's working well the way it was set up years ago, let's leave it be.

     It was also pointed out that coupons are mentioned a lot in the Money Saving Tips forum. Right now they are talking about trying another coupon train. Maybe that is the best place to do a coupon swap or coupon give-away thread???   Members are going there to try to save money - that means many more members to draw upon  for a coupon swap.  If someone does start one there, please post here and let us know, I'm sure many of us would post our extras over there.
