All you folks who hang out in the Target coupon thread, start hanging out here instead! When you've got something relevant to post about Target coupons, please post about it in the Target coupon thread! We'd love to hear about it, but NOT about your dog, your cat, your mom, your genital herpes, your... well, you get the idea.

Is it only at one store or have you heard it at several stores? Maybe to distract (I mean, to be friendly! LOL!) I'd ask a cashier, "What's that noise I hear over the loudspeaker sometimes?" That would kill two birds with one stone!! You'd get your answer and make a new friend!

Now that I think about it, it is only in one store. Its a newer target that isn't really as busy as others...maybe about a year old.
I do feel like there is this one woman always scoping me out...even before I couponed. I was in there alot because I get alot of target GC's. She used to work the CS desk, but lately she has been around the registers alot....then Friday she was in the starbucks stand ???? I hate when she is working though because she always stares at me.

Quote from mama2cole :
I know someone asked this but I can't remember if it was here or over in deals. I got a cup of coffee at Starbucks before starting my ST run this morning. Asked the cashier if I could buy a SB GC using a T GC. She said "sure, people do it all the time". Then she added "I mean, only if the SB is inside a T, not at a regular SB". Which made me CRACK up because I can just imagine people walking into a free standing SB with a T GC wanting coffee.
They'd look at you like you had 3 eyes on your head if you went into a SB and tried to use a T GC - too funny! Thanks so much for checking on this and letting us know. I always need more caffeine to keep me going (and free caffeine is the best kind) Sleepy2

ahhh, sweet redemption. I was the windshield todayBig Grin

Yeah Teri!

Quote from thuctrang :
We all should write emails to corporate requesting GCs from other vendors. All the competitors are doing GC racks. (K, CVS, HD Big Grin)

DH went Targeting with me and disappeared as I was checking out. Of course, he went to the food court and bought lunch with MONEY. "Hellooooo!!!! We have GCs!!!!"
Oh the fun we could have if T had a Gift Card Mall drool drool drool

Silly Mr. Trang nod

Did a cold cold sale today (as it was freezing and it was outdoors!) and only made about $300. Not nearly as much as some of the past weeks, but like I told DH, we good rid of more of the stockpile in the basement and have $300 more than we did 4 hours earlier. Also considering we didn't take nearly as much stuff this time and didn't sell as much (we transport our stuff to another location to sell) and had many less people come out in the cold we did pretty good! Will try to sell until the snow flies if we can! Next year I think we are going to do this a lot more when the weather is nice.

Is that what "Code F - please check your section for sales" means at Kmart? Between that and the shrill, hillbilly voice on the loudspeaker announcing layaway and other crap every 5 minutes, I am always paranoid too. EEK!

OK not to butt in on your converasation but I am the same way in Kmart. Just now, reading your post, it occured to me they think we look too normal to be there for any good reason.

Maybe we don't "fit in" there.Embarrassment
