IVC= Walgreens instant value coupon, found in the Easy Saver catalogs

ISO= In search of

TMF= try me free. Some refunds give you back your purchase price if you'll try the item.

UPC= learn this one, you'll see it all the time! It stands for "Universal Product Code". It is that box of black lines that the checker passes over the scanner at the checkout. It measures about 1"x1". This is a very popular proof of purchase.

WSL= while supply lasts. This is written on some refunds that offer gifts such as t-shirts. Send early because if they run out, you're out of luck.

SWEEPS= sweepstakes form (not traded). These are forms that enter you in a sweepstakes, but are not for refunds. These are junk and generally no one wants them.

This is the valuable part of a package. 95% of the time it is the UPC, but sometimes it might be the boxtop, the net weight statement, proof of purchase seal, etc, etc. Whatever is required to get a refund is a proof of purchase. This is also called a qualifier, because it 'qualifies' you for the refund.

NED= No Expiration Date: refers to refunds that don't have dates of expiration, or coupons that never expire. These are rare, though they were popular a long time ago.

OAS= "one any size" Some coupons specifically state on them that they can be used on any size product. For example, you might cut out a Crest coupon that says: $1 off one any size Crest. That's a great coupon. Most refunders will use that coupon on the smallest size, so they can get it free.
