just kidding..i actually have split personalities though...LOL

I know that "justsheila" is my sister n law...and when she's at my house she signs up for the swaps. she has her own username/account
but that's really about it. I guess that's a valid good reason! nothing sneaky about it...

just because they are different people so they don't want to be responsible for the other person's emails or trades? I know I wouldn't want to miss an email for a trade that I want because my "whoever" that I share the account with opened the email and deleted it or because it wasn't showing as new I overlooked it. I would want my own account here so that it would go to my personal email, not a shared email.

Please leave feedback if we have traded.

it was just a matter of personal space and different trades etc

when we first started out...we shared and it never worked out.. clicking on eachothers emails by accident etc

as someone mentioned before me.. it would show "read" when i had never read it..where my sister has already read it..

it was more confusing..Hope this helps

If they are two unrelated parties......they might each buy their own groceries, etc.
And with so many two and 3 generation households.... well, I wouldn't want to be responsible for someone else's senior moment.

As long as they each ALSO have a separate email address.... after all, my husband and I each have an ebay account and therefore separate paypal addresses too. 6|2|Ok, let me pose it this way....how common is it for two people in the same household to both trade for coupons, forms, etc?? How many people have you known to do this? I can understand it to a point, but if the household benefits from one person trading (saving money with coupons, doing rebates, etc), then why need two people to do it? And if rebate companies don't allow more than one submission per household, no matter how the arrangements of those who live there, isnt there something to be said for that? Seriously, just asking.... |saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|14:36:16|10/26/2009|

thats becuase we are very close..we would split the money to use to groceries or something of this nature.. for whole family..
but most of the time i would say that is NOT very common..

then that is their own personal "thing", (for lack of a better word)so why does it matter? I mean really. As long as they are not breaking any of the board "rules" then it's really no one else's busniness. I wouldn't want to share an account with anyone so why should they?

1. Maybe they work different shifts.
2. Maybe 1 of them said, hey, I found this really cool site...
3. I wouldn't share my account w/my hubby. Yes, granted, hubbies come in here to post for their wives. But they say "Hey this is ___'s husband..."
4. This would avoid trade mishaps. If they were roomies, then they'd each have their own things.
5. It also avoids the "whoops" factor - posting as the other person b/c you forgot to log in yourself.


I don't see a problem as long as they are holding up their end of the trade. They are entitled to their own account.
