Kids have a knack for being deathly sick and then all their symptoms disappear magically when you get them to the doctor. Dontknow

Heard a whopper of a tale this morning at T: Cust svc cashier told me that T was throwing around the idea of banning coupons all together b/c they hardly get reimbursed for them. She told me that mfg. have started reimbursing T by the weight of the coupons. Yes, like in how many pounds they are. She told me that they get reimbursed approximately $1 per pound. Rofl2

I honestly think she was smoking something. I have never heard a more ridiculous story. I asked why didn't T take legal action and she said, the mfg can do whatever it wants. Faint
How do people dream up stuff like that???

Had spaghetti with garlic bread last night for dinner. Not sure what we're having tonight.

Still want chinese food but still too lazy to go get it.
Quit talking about Chinese will you already. Wink
You are making me too hungry. We are too cash poor after our vacay to be ordering Chinese anytime soon and I've never learned to cook it well enough.

Dinner for me will probably be more grilled veggies over some mini-bowtie pasta.

*laugh* Thanks for the encouragement everyone! I'm getting really excited now. It's great to have an end date - as much as I wanted this to happen completely natural - I'm getting to be okay with the induction idea. Even if they will start me on pitocin right away, I think I can manage it. I'm halfway dilated, so *surely* it won't take that long to finish up!!

So far today, all I've done is go to the docs and did 1 load of laundry. I can't find my stupid scissors - so that's driving me nuts!! I have like 4 pairs of scissors, and for some reason can't seem to keep them all in their places!!! UGH!

Thanks Gator for the Kroger run down. Ya'll are being soooo helpful and supportive!! I appreciate it so much!

I am a bit tired, so I may take a slight nap and recharge my batteries. DH works til 9:30 tonight, so I have some time to shop later. Smilie

As for dinner - I think I'll do a "fend for yerselves" night! (though, chinese sounds fantastic...)

I think people like to amuse themselves with fairy tales, either that or the store manager is taking a creative writing class. Big Grin

You know all this talk about Chinese then the mention Chicken Salad reminds me of a Chinese "Chicken" Salad I made at my MIL's last year. It sounded pretty unappetizing to me but helped make it anyway and in the end I LOVED it.

It's Chicken Salad as in something you might use to make a sandwich (not a lettuce salad) and has ingredients that include: brown rice, bean sprouts, mayonnaise, sauce and dried cranberries.

Kind of an asian spin-off of a chicken waldorf

I was joking yesterday that I should attach a scissor on a string to my belt loop... "Where's a scissor?" has been my most asked question for a long time Roll
Quote from .teri. :
I use my crock pot ALOT in the summer. Slow cooking that doesn't heat the house up.

One of my favorite summer dinners is homemade chicken salad (chicken from deli if you don't want to cook it, although the crock pot cooks it nicely without heating up the house)

Anyway, home made chicken salad on top of garden fresh tomatoes, with garlic toast. We have alot of salad type dinners in the summer.
yummy I'm comin to your house tonight yummy

Secret I'll bring Chinese Evillaugh

I vaguely remember that some stores do this but I do not think Target does - they sell coupons to other companies in bulk by weight and then those companies redeem them.

Soooo, My sad sap story for the day is: my 7.5 cu ft chest freezer that was filled to the M.A.X. - blew the circuit in the storm & we just discovered it this morning and everything is G.O.N.E! I threw away around 150 pounds of ground filet meat, 25 lbs of chix, fish sticks, Oreida FF - tater tots - curly fries, drumsticks, fruit bars, cookie dough, cheese cheese and more cheese and even some chocolate. Sadwalk

Now I am going to go torture myself by watching Furry Venegance with the kids. Frown

Went to Kohl's today with my 10/20, 5/5, and 15% coupons. Just showed the kids what they got and added up what I spent vs what I saved.

I spent 66.00 and saved 480.00. Now that's worth spending 3 hours in the store for! I still have 8 coupons to use and I'll be set.

Now I just need about 20 more for myself. lol

It's easy! I'm definitely not a Ko-pro but I do know you can stack coupons in the store like that. Means big savings!

I heart my crock pot. Did you know that you can prepare all your stuff the night before in the pot and put it in the fridge. Then in the morning you can take it right out of the fridge and just turn it on. heart heart heart

I'm kind of hoping you go in and they break your water and then BAM... there she is. Whee

Quote from flugette :
Ok, thanks!! Will check it out at my store. I saw those Qs today and was wondering if there was a good deal somewhere.



Don't you hate that?? I have consistently been able to get about 20 inserts for the past 2 months, which is awesome. But this past week, I kept going there and going there and going there and NOTHING! I didn't get my inserts until Wednesday!! Almost thought I wouldn't get them at all. No idea why they would wait that long to drop them off, but whatever. Just glad I got them. nod I so love not having to buy coupons anymore. Its just a pain to keep that many in order, but worth it, for sure.
It was worth it! It was nice for the month.5 or so we were getting them. I knew I should have went out for at least a paper or two yesterday.

Quote from Bronc :
Nikayla,

The alignment for the cartridges is done through the print settings. Go to your Control Panel, and double click on your printer icon to bring up a dialogue box. Look through all the options, including the Advanced ones, until you find where to clean/align ink cartridges. Each printer is different, or I'd tell you exactly where this is located on the dialogue box. You can clean the cartridge heads and realign. That should help a lot with your printing problems. Hope it works!
I have looked and looked in the advanced tab and do not see it. Confused I know it has to be somewhere, I can't find it. I have the HP Photosmart 2600 printer/scanner/copier. I can find Device Settings but not Print Settings.

Faint It is such hard work filling those with slickdeals too. Comfort hug

That just happened to someone else on SD too, their DH had left it open getting ice I think, they caught it just in time to save some of it & all the meats needed cooked.

I think I'll go make sure our freezer door is shut.
