Thank you for the surprise envie from Minneapolis! There is no return address and I'm going to guess this was a birthday envie. Thank you so much for thinking of me! :goodvibes

Jen I got a *h*u*g*e* envie from you today! Wowza! did you hit a recycling center too!!!! lol I'll go through it later today. I'm off to the Regional Market to get fresh produce and work on a plan for a dinner I'm hosting tomorrow for DH's b'day and MIL's belated b'day.

Have a wonderful day all!

Doreen your second envie ever show up? I'm getting concerned. I'm picturing a damaged envie arriving at some point despite my taping it and that would really bite!

I cut a mess out tonight again and next weeks should be a goodie again.

No nothing yet. Yeah I thought maybe Thur. or Fri but nothing. I know what you mean. I tape mine also. We get the mail a little earlier today since it is Saturday so when the mail comes I will post.
 
No Karen. No envie today either :confused3. I used a lot from your big envie though but it is frustrating especially when you take the time to put tape on them so that this does not happen!!

What kind of tape is everyone using? I use "mailing tape" (2" wide) and put a whole strip around the top and bottom of the envie (just touching the edge). So far I have not heard of any problems with rips but it is really reinforced. One even had to be mailed as a package the other day it was so full. :rolleyes1
 
Now let me make sure I understand.....if I post to my buddies that I have sent or received an envie then is THAT checking in? THAT seems too easy.:lmao:

Yep, you got it. If you post on the thread at least once a month, you have checked yourself in. The other way is to PM me and just quickly tell me if things are or are not running smoothly.
 
My husband & I both watch Big Brother. I am so glad Jeff got the power. Jesse thinks he is "all that". I do not know why but we are addicted also!!:rotfl2:

I love Big Brother also. I came home after school supply shopping for my daughter watched big brother wnet back to work to do payroll for the guys.

Just wanted to share with the rest of you. I'm glad Jeff got the power I was hoping either him or Jordan would get it.

:cool1:The Rat is gone!!!!! Whew! I thought if they didn't get rid of him now, then he was going to win it all. I will have you know that I text/voted for Jeff to get the mystery power. I was very happy to see that he did indeed get it. Basically it doesn't matter who Chima puts up this week then. I have a feeling she will put up Russel, and then JEff will take him down. What do you think? I have to say that I like JEsse more this season than last, he is kind of funny. However, I think they need to split up him and Natalie...too much power. If Jeff were smart, he would put them two up before next weeks vote to guarantee at least one of them goes home.

For the rest of you that don't watch....or arn't admitting that you watch....(heeeheee), your sooo missing out! This is good stuff!!!!! :rotfl:

That is what I use. Duck brand packing tape around the edges. This was a standard envie taped well that went the same day as her other one. Ticks me off......

I have a huge one going to you next week too. I may actually split it though or I'll need to use a 9x11 envie. Will let you know.

For any of you who don't get the coupons until Sunday, they're really good this week. I bought the paper twice today (and then twice tomorrow!!) it was so good.

For the person who asked about tape - I don't use any. I got some industrial strength envelopes, and just jam those full. I guess it works, but I suppose mskayjay would be the one to ask about that :lmao:
 
Jax -
Please bear with me. I just got your envie returned again.....They are asking for .14 more cents postage, even after having it weighed inside a few days ago. At this point there are 6 stamps on the envie, and I can't imagine it needing that much. I'm so frustrated with our USPS. :rolleyes: I will put two in the mail tomorrow to make up for this week's fiasco. Again, I'm so sorry.
 
Thank you for the welcomes. Just getting started going through all the thread. I just started using coupons about three months ago and cannot believe the amount of $$ we have saved. I have never been a part of a coupon train and cannot wait to get started!!:cool1:
 
Hi Kim (bussprincessmom). I am your new sender. You will get a few envies from me this week. I have a GREAT sender who sends me LOTS of coupons so you will be on the receiving end of lots & lots of coupons!! I will post again tomorrow when I get ready to mail them & let you know how many envies to expect.

Doreen
