Okay all of you Portland and Eugene mamas who are Chinook Book users! I know you're out there! Let's use this thread to swap and or giveaway coupons we can't or won't use!
I would love to get my hands on Market of Choice Eugene coupons, Laughing Planet coupons, Bio-Kleen coupons, Lundberg (any) coupons and probably more that I can't think of right now! I will trade almost any of my Portland specific coupons!
Who wants to, who's in? I'm sure you PDX mamas have a bunch you could trade amoungst yourselves too!
Post here what you're looking for, and what you're happy to trade for it!

I gots the Laughing Planet coupon if you want it. And some other restaurant coupons we prolly won't have time to use now.
Oh man, Chinook Book is da bomb, you gotta get one! I may buy another one before the year is out, it's that worth it!

I will gladly send on any and all Eugene coupons to whomever PMs me their address. :D What do I want in exchange....? Hmmm.... Hannah Andersson is always nice. But if you're saving that for yourself I understand. :lol I have no use for Eugene coupons, though, so they're free for the taking.

I was thinking that we need a PDX mdc mama secret signal pin or something that we could flash if we "suspect" another mama to be an mdc'er :lol

Yep I do shop at Orenco Station NS!! I love it, I'm in Forest Grove area, so I dont make it out there but everyother week or so, but we totally need a signal or something so we know who each other is!! Maybe all wear a t-shirt or something when we go!! LOL

For those of you who don't know what you're missing! I have made my money many many times over using these coupons for great local, hip and healthy places and foods!

I had never heard of the Chinook Book before, looks pretty cool. I, however, truly suck at using coupons!
But that look soooo tempting...

Tracy, yours are going out in the mail today!
And if your not going to use your Whole Food's ones I could use those as well.
Thanks!

I could send you my Hannah Andersons coupon, I don't ever make it to the down town one, I go to Lake O.
PM your address if you'd like it!

I didn't even realize there were Hannah Andersson, I'll gladly send you mine..:love
1. I'll give away lots of Portland ones, I'm in Eugene and can't use'em.
2. My daughter's school is selling them still, so if anybody wants one (or another one) let me know. It will go to help a neat Sudbury model part-time-unschooling-school-for-homeschoolers. They are having budgeting issues because their rent was increased.

Oh yeah, and if anyone doesn't want the Trimet day passes in the very back of the book, I could use those too.

We are always glad to accept Rebuilding Center coupons and I would really love to get another Norm Thompson coupon. I was just thinking about this one this morning. I am sure we will have lots of restaurant coupons left over, but there are so many places I'd like to try this summer and then I will pass them along if there are too many to use.
I am more than happy to pass along the Eugene coupons to whomever can use them. Just PM address and I'll pop them in the mail, prolly after the weekend though.

When do the coupons expire? Would it be worth getting a book right now, or do they expire soon?

They expire at the end of the year, Dec. 31st. If you use the coupons then it'd sure be worth it!

Tracy--I got your PM, I will look to see what I've got on your list (some we use, but ones we don't are yours) and will send them out either next week or in 3 weeks (when school is over). I will try for next week, but no promises.
I would still love another Norm Thompson coupon. I wish I had thought of posting earlier because we would have LOVED to get our hands on the Northwest Children's Theater coupon to go see Seusical the Musical. We used ours to see Frog and Toad and ds looooooved it. He is loving theater, maybe next year I will remember to ask.
Also might use another Miller Paint coupon...we'll see about that one later this summer.

Do you guys also have a coupon for nurturemama.com in your book? (I'm in WA and have the Seattle book). Everytime I try to go to the site, it doesn't work. Was just wondering if anybody knew what was up with that. :p

I have 10 (count 'em!) Portland/Eugene Chinook Books and will not be using ANY of my Eugene coupons by year's end. There are a lot from Portland that I won't be using too. What I really need are the Wild Oats and Whole Foods coupons, and I could also use The Daily Grind and possibly a few product coupons that we use quite frequently.
Anyone in Eugene (or Portland) who wants to trade? :loveeyes:

To Jennlindsey and any other coupon freaks, have ya ever tried the grocery game? It's a list you subscribe to and they tell you the rock bottom prices at either albertsons or safeway and what coupons to use. I used to be all excited over it, but now I don't have time so I quit. But it so totally rocked to get a carload of groceries for $40. I kinda miss my sunday morning coupon cutting.

Is anyone in need of a 2007 PDX/Eugene Chinook Book? We're selling them for my DD's preschool co-op. Orders need to be in by Oct 27, so let me know! I bought 2 books for myself and will not be using the Eugene coupons, so I'm willing to trade as well.
