Upcoming coupon swaps - Need feedback on holiday blog coupon swap

There are a number of blog members who swap coupons here in the Triangle area. This is the place to post your swap dates and locations each week! See below for details on how to host a swap and what to do if you are planning to attend a swap.

If there are any more November or December swaps scheduled, feel free to post them in the comments section below and I will add them to the main list. It helps if you can post your swap details more than a week before the swap date. Happy swapping!

How many of you would be able to attend a holiday coupon and dessert swap (and food drive) on Sunday November 17 from 2 pm - 4 pm? 

Most Saturdays are out because of activities at the studio or other issues like parades. Nights and daytimes are too busy at WRAL for us to have the swap there.

Our other option is to have the holiday swap at a local fast food restaurant in the 40/42 area as we have done for the past couple years. That would probably be on Thursday , December 5th from 9:30 am - 11:30 am.

Sunday, November 17 from 2 pm - 4 pm at WRAL in Raleigh or

Thursday, December 5 from 9:30 am - 11:30 am in the 40/42 area or

None of the above

If you plan to attend this new swap, please contact the swap coordinator, Dawn at hyperbabe71@hotmail.com to let her know you are planning to come. It will help her get a headcount on approximately how many to expect. If this time (1 - 3 pm) does not work for you, but you would like to attend a swap at this location, you can also contact Dawn to let her know and maybe the swap time will change so more folks can attend.

Date: November 13

Time: 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Location: Carolina Pines Community Center, 2305 Lake Wheeler Rd, Raleigh NC, I-40 Exit 297 Lake Wheeler Rd (Farmer's Mkt).

This swap is always the 2nd Wed of the month.

Date: Thursday, November 21, 2013 (3rd Thursday of each month)

Time: 7:00-8:45 p.m.

Location: Durham County Library - Southwest Regional (3605 Shannon Road, Durham, North Carolina 27707, 919-560-8590)

There is a large meeting room reserved for this group, so feel free to invite your friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, or anyone interested in exchanging coupons! If there is no notice posted in the library entrance area, inquire at the Information Desk when you arrive and they will let you know which meeting room we are in for the evening.

Please bring non-expired coupons you do not want or need in an envelope or baggie; it's best if they are already clipped.

You may also bring coupons that have already expired, again preferably already cut out of the inserts, in a separate bag or envelope so they may be donated to the military.

Date: Saturday, Nov 23rd

Time: 3:00 pm

Location: Moes at Triangle Towne Center

* In really large groups, couponers often sit in groups of 5 to 8 people to swap

I also recommend the local swap group, Triangle Area Coupon Swap with additional coupon swap information.

If your swap is less than a week away and you would like it to appear on this swap post, please send me an e-mail to saving@smartspendingresources.com with the information to make sure I see it in time to post your swap. Thanks!
