29|4|I started refunding in 1980's also. I bought my first pair of professional type ice skates with the money and took|lv2qpon|jcummins1@rochester.rr.com|15:30:29|04/12/2012|i am posting on this board because i hate to take up room on the form board
personly i appriciate being able to buy forms when i was younger i did alot of form hunting would make a 300 mile loop trip couponing and form hunting now age has krept up on me and i cant get in and out of the car or walk very far so i relay on other form hunters i appriciate their time effort and gas if i think forms are too high pass and go on i enjoy the extra funds but if i miss out on a refund life goes on those expensive forms usually pay well so i dont think most prices are out of line hats off to form hunters lets keep some fun in coupons and refunding

6|3|When I joined RS in 2004...there were soooooo many rebate forms for LOTS of items in the grocery store. AND many in our inserts....it seems to be a fading thing. 2004 or 2005 was like the year of the tee shirt and beach towel. Remember all the beach towel forms? I still have many of them in the closet. M&M tees etc....(and the checks of course, lol!!!) |Barb09|Barb0969@AOL.com|20:38:57|04/09/2012|
I looked and looked and found no coupons for troll food......SO, I don't feed the trolls!! 7|1|very little money in food or HBA any more|ppe1952|matwell3@rochester.rr.com|21:20:08|04/09/2012|
every once in a while i sees omething- usually printable and i am absolutely thrilled but all of the bif money is mostly in wine. very little in auto either. we used to get some real nice premiums from all companies.
DO NOT meddle in the affairs of dragons for YOU ARE CRUNCHY AND GOOD WITH KETCHUP!
8|1|Barb, I remember that also. I joined in 2002 and there were so many rebates, it was a lot of time to get those out.|lv2qpon|jcummins1@rochester.rr.com|16:08:25|04/10/2012|
I think you are right, many companies are phasing those out. I haven't seen any quaker refunds in a long time and they were annual at least. The movie offers aren't in abundance anymore either. 9|2|Beach towels, movie tickets....where has all the good loot gone??? :( (I still have Scooby Doo towels from I dont know where, M&Ms towels, and those Bull Frog sunscreen towels....all those towels are top quality too!)|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|16:42:26|04/10/2012|

10|3|Those were the days (sigh)......|maraj|maraj64@hotmail.com|17:04:36|04/10/2012|
I still have my FINN, Kraft, & Velveeta Spiderman towels, the Hershey's Kisses snowglobes, Kellogg's cereal bowls (these are actually ceramic) & a couple of those cameras from the Pop-tart offer. Not to mention all the goodies Pillsbury offered w/Doughboy pts., Healthy Choice & Newport.
Sure miss offers like that!
:(
Smile... it makes people wonder what you're up to!
Please identify yourself in 1st email w/name/username. Due to recent problem trades, if I haven't traded w/you before, I will probably require you send your end 1st or I'll need LEGIT trade references/feedback. I will be happy to provide the same. IF you plan to hold your end til you've received mine, I will need to know that IMMEDIATELY, BEFORE trade is finalized.
23|4|Does anyone remember the general mills cereal offer? We sent in UPCS and got free product coupons...|sunriver|sunriver@gmail.com|20:53:41|04/11/2012|
And then there was a friskies offer that was supposed to be military only but they did not say that on the forms and the company followed through (I still buy Friskies over other brands because of that!) I got a years worth of free cat food from that one.
Huggies and the giant winnie the pooh?
Van de Kamp hot wheels which I later sold on Ebay for $25 each or so. They were unlimited and I had boxes full of them. Those little cars funded one of our Christmases.
In the early days of my refunding I had to walk about 3/4 of a mile to our mailbox (we lived in a log cabin in the boonies) and walking home was always such fun!
20|3|Joy, I remember all those neat freebies. When my gandchildren were small, they made great gifts. I got the|lv2qpon|jcummins1@rochester.rr.com|15:03:27|04/11/2012|
free trucks from Kellogs, pop tart bags. I still have one of those. I also got the free hot dog cooler that is round and has a tray in it. Remember the Sargento cheese bags? They made great gifts and I kept one for myself. It is great to keep a sandwich and a drink cool. I also got the free monopoly game and lots of movie tickets. 13|2|And PEPSI!!! I started counting on those rebates! Usually a money maker with sales and coupons.....and they were like every 3-4 months. There hasn't been a pepsi rebate in forever.|Barb09|Barb0969@AOL.com|21:13:31|04/10/2012|
I looked and looked and found no coupons for troll food......SO, I don't feed the trolls!! 11|1|those cigarette premiums were awesome|ppe1952|matwell3@rochester.rr.com|17:09:17|04/10/2012|
i had a complete luncheon set from virginia slims plus a rocking chair. marlboro had great stuff including tents, camp sets jackets etc. i miss that stuff and those pc were actually pretty easy to get. just walk a parking lot sometime.
DO NOT meddle in the affairs of dragons for YOU ARE CRUNCHY AND GOOD WITH KETCHUP! 12|2|Marlboro Miles program, yes! Tons of great stuff.....I still have the tent, zero degree sleeping bag, a duffel tote (huge!), some camping cookware (that blue and white speckled stuff).....tshirts, towels, a couple jackets....geez, I'm getting misty-eyed remembering...LOL!|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|17:11:08|04/10/2012|
" You'll get what's coming to you ... Unless it was mailed."
14|3|Hehehe, anyone remember the wishbone points? 25 points got you a Foreman Grill...there were like 6 different prizes and all you needed were the codes from PEELIES!!!!|Barb09|Barb0969@AOL.com|21:15:14|04/10/2012|

i buy them for about 10% and yes so many liquor makes me wanna drink just thingking about the years past when there was so much more rebate offers.i think co's realize that we trade qualifers and such but who cares someone still buys them 17|1|I DID REFUNDING ALMOST 3O YEARS AGO AND GOT BACK INTO IT 4 YEARS AGO OPEN AND READ|ASWEENEY|tgif246@aol.com|13:58:56|04/11/2012|
I REMEMBER HAVING DIAPER BOXES CUT ON AND KEEPING MY LABELS OR EMPTY BOXES IN A SPARE ROOM AND TRADING AND GOING TO CONVENTIONS AS THAN YOU COULD DO REBATES ON A TON OF THINGS NOW SEEMS JUST LIQUOR.
DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE DELMONTE STUFFED ANIMALS I STILL HAVE SOME OF THOSE IN MY CLOSET. I GOT SO MANY OF THOSE I FORGET HOW MANY LABELS YOU NEEDED TO GET ONE FREE ANIMAL.
I MISS THE REFUND CONVENTIONS YOU WOULD GO ALL DAY SATURDAY PEOPLE USE TO HAVE PHOTO ALBUMS AND TRADE SAY A DELMONTE VEGETABLE LABEL FOR SOMETHING OR CEREAL UPC THOSE WERE THE FUN DAYS. I USE TO GO ALL OVER THE PLACE.
I UNDERSTAND THAT SOME STATES IT IS ILLEGAL TO DO REFUND CONVENTIONS NOW. I WAS GOING TO TRY TO DO ONE IN MY HOMETOWN IN MASSACHUSETTS AND YOU CAN'T YOUR NOT SUPPOSE TO TRADE THAT STUFF ANY MORE.
WELL JUST WANTED TO SHARE WHAT 30 YEARS AGO USE TO BE LOL.

and i was absolutely thrilled. i can home with deals for atari jackets and got the forms for the delmonte yumlins ( stuffed toys in the shape of veggies -- if i remember right) after that i was hooked more than ever. i think i went somewhere to trade atleast once a month.. all kinds of forms. we traded form for form , 3 forms equaled a qualifier (upc) and we traded complete deals. most forms were no more than $2 and there was no liquor. we did didn;t start so see liquor till 90's and then you needed the label. i knew people who had about 40 bars saving bottles for them because you could do the rebate on liter bottles and that is what bars had.i knew one guy who had people that did nothing but soak labels off for him.. i think over the years i have had almost every kind of premium you can imagine. the oil companies gave us tools and tool boxes, t shirts and hats.i knew some one who had thousands of cigarette upc to sell and that merchandise was the very best stuff.i miss those offers. they made great holidays.

the year I got married! Forms especially food, tons of P&G and many others were on rebate boards in almost every food store and you didn't have to ask for them either! I especially loved the unlimited $2 free beef/chicken offer from Lipton. I must've gotten at least 30-35 of these coupons! I also remember the Nabisco $20 offer, Delmonte Yumkins, several beach towels, and so many other freebies. They were certainly the good ol' days! I hardly refund anymore but still use coupons which I save more this way doubled to .99c every week - Sharon:) 30|3|started in the 80s also.
