Sam, so glad the pump is working out for all of you.

No T or K for me this weekend. How sad is that?

AND the kids ate the last of the free Market Pantry string cheese and Kraft cheese slices from the $3 q in March. Now I have to EEK! "buy" cheese. I still have 4 blocks of Kraft cheese in the freeze, but no slices or string cheese *sigh....those were good q's.
Cheese has gotten sooooo expensive. Frown A sale price is now double what my target price used to be. Sadwalk

Make sure you start from the underside back part of your head and work your way to the front and top. That stuff really works quick! I was starting in the front and working back and the guy who cuts my hair said shake head shake head ! I had a halo effect going on for sure!

Good luck!!

Ive been a lurker of this thread for ALONG time. I've never joined in because I see sometimes there are alot of issues with cashiers...I never wanted to go through that, but I found out yesterday my sons bestfriends mom got a job at target. So I might need some schoolin' on all these deals, as I've been dying to do them for months!

Meant to respond earlier, Teri, but had to run out to a baby shower. (My friend is so big! I couldn't believe she's only at 33 weeks. . . EEK!)

I don't really know; just going on an overall "vibe" (can you get a vibe from an electronic message board? Big Grin) and a few things that have been posted by some long-time posters about their posts getting deleted.

I'm always afraid newbies who don't know any better will read posts by more experienced T shoppers (and this is really true for any store) and not understand that this all takes a certain amount of "finesse" and common sense. That's what I saw in that card Q thread-- peeps were posting that they would get the cards and just enough merchandise so their totals would be > $.50. And do it again and again. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) Well, what do you think is going to happen?

Quote from laTeri :
wow. Is it a specific person/people mod-alerting or are the mods just watching the thread more closely? I believe that most people know what smash and grabbing is when they post it. There is a big difference between posting a run to let people know about a good deal, and posting how you got a gazillion things for free, which I interpret as boasting. Dontknow just MHO...

ex: good post

glade (cpn)
coke (coke)
greeting cards (tq)

as opposed to: smash and grab post

did the glade deal 15 times today
used the greeting card 25 times today, and ya...you don't have to buy a card
etc etc etc

(please no one hurt me laugh out loud)

Thank you whoever posted about the $10 shutterfly exp soon.
I placed an order tonight.
Spent $20 total
Got 1 photobook with 6 extra pages
1 8x10
4 christmas cards.
Breakdown used a 30% off code
free 8x10w/$30 purchase
4 free card code from card insert from last order
free shipping code w/$25 purchase
$10 credit

saved $35.

I am happy I have a few more books to make but considering the cost of scrapbooking this is truly reasonable.

I totally agree with this. And I still consider myself a newbie. Finesse is a good way to describe it. Unfortunately, some people are just idiots.

Ok, how skeeved am I right now...So I went to have some cereal and milk, horizon singles of course... I noticed the expiration date... 9/16/08!! Considering this sh*t lasts like a year, that is troubling! Especially since I know I didn't buy it until at LEAST October... Just be sure to check before you pour!

Okay, I have SERIOUSLY got to figure out the Shutterfly savings. I did get one photobook a couple of months ago and LOVE it. I want to give them as Christmas gifts, but damned if I'm not overwhelmed by that SF thread EEK!

True that. Really, I hardly head into deals as my poor laptop screen gets headbanging scuffs all over the screen from the nonsense.....Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) hate that I miss the deals that actually sneak into there every blue moon or so....

I have SO had it with Target! I went yesterday and had all legit items and legit coupons in my cart and my cashier scans all my coupons, with no beeps!, and then the LOD comes over, pushes her out of the way and says he needs to check all my coupons.

He asks me to pull every item out and show it to him on a Sat. afternoon when they are crazy busy.

I say: no-if you want to check my stuff, you look through the bags and find it.

So, he does for every single coupon and tried to find an excuse to not take about 8 of my coupons stating that because there is a picture of frosted flakes, I can't use it on Special K because it's not on the picture, etc..

Then he accuses me of copying coupons because my printables were black and white.

He was such a dick. I don't even want to deal with Target anymore.

Last time I emailed corp, they talked to the LOD and the LOD said I had a bunch of coupons for the wrong items(not true) and corp took the side of the LOD and made me look like sh*t.

Would I really complain to corp if I knew my q's were fraud? WWYD?

I don't usually post this crap cuz I know if I don't like reading it, noone else will. Sorry for the vent-I'm done now.
