2 good runs tonight, but had weird behavior from my Glad-ay Qs both times. Both times the first b2g1 deducted just $1. All the rest worked as intended and no beeps. WTF is that? It it happened at 2 different Ts. Between this and Teri's broken T I hope it's not a sign of an update.
It was working tonite for me, and was about 3 coupons in, when my new favorite cashier got uneasy about the $$ amt being deducted, and deleted all the coupons off my order, except one. I would have given him some different coupons, but the couple behind me were sighing so loudly, I buckled and just let it go thru as is. No prob. Hope I do better tomorrow though. Frown But, at least the coupons were going in as I expected. Last week they seemed like they were not working correctly.

Nono2 not me either!
I had this one lady in front of me one time that was buying nothing but trial sized things like secret, dove, huggies, etc.

Her total was $152 and she used no q's Faint
There was a customer before me in line (she paid and walked away as I was unloading). The kid said her total was over $1000 with NO coupons and when offered a T CC to save 10%, she declined. WOW, $1000 at Target. I havent spent that OOP in the 2 years I have been shopping there

Faint

Now when I first met DH he had a shiny T CC with a $1000 limit and he had paid it off, well before I knew what a coupon was, I went and spent all $1000 of it on one trip....

NEVER AGAIN!

Quote from mamaoftwins2 :
I might be wrong but didnt someone mention this happens if the cashiers scans the right barcode of the glade cpn
Ahhhhhhh... that could totally be it. See, I knew you guys would have the answer. I didn't say anything about it when it happened because I don't really like to draw attention to the amount being deducted when those Qs are scanned. So if they JUST rescanned the right barcode and didn't void the $1 then would I get beepage later on in my pile? The $1 didn't attach to anything so I don't know if it came off as a random MQ or if it came off as a Glad-ay.

I felt so bad for the kid at the first T I was at. Their scanners are SO old. He was shaking the scanner and trying so hard to get my Qs to go through. All of them, not just the tough to scan ones. I always forget that T has such an old system. It's a shame it's such a p.i.t.a. to check out because they are very Q friendly.

Oh, and has anyone used the $5 LF MFQ on anything in the baby section?

Teri~when I check out today I'm going to say "I had to come here because the Target in W.A. is broken" laugh out loud

My motherboard crashed on my computer and I'm using my sons and he is pi$$ed. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) Whatever. I had to promise him I'd save up to buy another one, but I had to use his to get on SD first. So, all saved favs and coupons are gone Sadwalk

I have 3 boys and a baby girl. DH knows when they are awake, no lovin for him shake head
But, since I had a baby this year (and over 200 lbs. Frown) There hasnt been a whole lotta lovin goin on around here anyway. My 4 year old doesnt turn handles, he does the 2 hand shove. You know , where they come barrelling through like a herd of buffalos.

Teri-weird. just weird. same thing happened to me but was in the middle of a transaction that was stalled due to a q argument and it crashed. I was the bug for first time in months but I didn't go down without a fight. uneducated people are annoying. I wonder how you copy coupons when the barcodes are different on each one. Morons. I know it's cool since I've been windshield so many times, just annoyed me as I drove a while to get there. Oh well. I'll do the same run today and be fine at a different store. Some stores are so coupon unfriendly when they all should treat their customers exactly the same. It's just the way it is.

That's it for me.

I was the bug and the windshield yesterday. Left a full cart at one T when the cashier decided to be an asshat. First time ever, and although I was pissed that all that work was for nothing, it was kind of funny to see the look on her face when I said " you know what? forget it! give me back all my coupons!"

Next run at a nice ST was great. Lots and lots of chocolate, lysol refils, glade (thank you mama again and Teri) and I forgot my printed out Goody!
All in all a good run there.

Barb, hope you had a wonderful night!

Man, my binder is going to be empty come 12/31

Hey, just a reminder if anyone still has kitty litter they don't know what to do with. Just saw a local news story saying how bad the shelters are doing right now with an increase of surrendered pets and their grants, etc. are going way down with the economy the way it is. Please donate all you can to them Frown My shelter kitty is sitting on my lap and I'm making a trip to the shelter today with more goodies! They need litter, food, newspapers, old towels, etc. Check their websites for 'needed' items. Smilie
