Abstract
Trackable response devices such as redeemable coupons are prepared by forming multiple sets of response devices. Each set might comprise a book having multiple pages of coupons. A tracking code is printed on least some of the response devices of each set. The tracking code for the response devices within a particular set is the same, and the tracking code for each set is different. After the sets are formed, each set is printed with an address, and the address of each set and the tracking code of the set is stored.
