Is Trading Coupons, Ethical and Legal

Courtesy of The Coupon Project

WOW! I just came across an EXCELLENT article written by "Coupon Queen" Jill Cataldo entitled "Is trading coupons ever against the law?"

Ever notice how most coupons read "void if copied, transferred, sold, or exchanged?" Jill does a wonderful job of explaining exactly what that means – and what it doesn't. It certainly cleared things up for me! Incidentally, it looks like next week she'll be addressing the question if coupons can be sold.
