This thread is being created so people -- generally, those people who can't seem to resist talking about off-topic junk in the Target coupon thread -- have a place to talk about shopping at Target and other miscellaneous matters.

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.

Amen Sista!

Seriously, use your brain and moderation. Isn't it better to get 5 toothpastes every time you go and be able to get some everytime you go for years to come. Look at what other retailers have done because of greediness.

Once again, what seems obvious to most of us will not be obvious to some. Of course, those are the ones that cry foul when the stores severely limit our couponing.....Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) look around

I smell like glade. Spent an hour downstairs sorting my glade and packing up some refills in a box for a trade. I'm glad the green ones will be gone, I don't think they smell nice at all. The red ones aren't nearly as bad but a lot of those are going too. Yaaa for me!

back to work tomorrow---and to target. Didn't feel like going today. Been way too lazy lately and very focused on just hanging with the kid. Which is way more important of course!

sungoddess-glad you took that scary pic down

I dont know if anyone else has pointed these out, but I'll post them. Ignore if it's old info.

I found $1 peelies on Fresh Step kitty litter for kitty litter wipes, or any fresh expression litter products.

I found $1 Target peelies on the Aquafresh toothpaste for any Aquafresh toothbrush.

I posted this in the deal thread as well just in case there are those that only go to one of them.

I am on the phone with corp and they agree with me, I call the manager over and corp. explains to him the policy BUT wait!! manager changes story, he says I am buying to many, I am buying over 50 and that is not the right size for my family. He hands the phone to me and corp says I am now buying to many and the store has a right to limit how many I purchase. so he takes my cart away, will not return my coupons, embarasses me in front of t he store, like I am trying to steal and take off with the cart. I am RED! and I hear him on the phone with security or something. I was not loud but I did call him a dumbass rude ass because he said have a nice day in a sarcastic tone.
So now I am calling the district office and hopefully get my coupons back and file a complaint. any other suggestions? I am beyond staying under the radar.......... I could care less. I just want to walk in the store and not be looked down upon because I use coupons. much less using target coupons at the target store!!
And the ass said that the reason they accept coupons was to try the item, like a sample. I said, no they are to save money and he got all rude and said nope, it is to sample a item
You had your chance to be able to walk into the store and use coupons without being looked down upon right when you handed that phone over to the manager and corp. explained their policiy. You pushed it by trying to buy 25 tubes of toothpaste with 50 coupons. (Yes your 50 q's were all legit, that's not in question) And yes, a young cashier is gonna get nervous, especially if the store is already wary of coupons. Everyone says it's the cashier's job to check q's, well that's his job on the line, you can't blame him. . Had you been buying 5 and not 25, that phone call to corp. would have proved your point to the manager, and you shouldn't have had another problem in that store again.

My store has a limit of 5 like coupons. Does that suck during certain deals? Absolutely. But that's the limit they set and that's the limit I abide by in order to keep getting good deals. Keep it simple and abide by their limits, and your shopping trips will be alot less stressful.

Dillards was great... got there at 10am.. scored a Coach messenger bag for $45 Whee... Perfect for holding my coupons, calculator,scissors, id, and debit card.... I was the second one at the counter... Grabbed my bag and noticed about 10 women showed up... I did not know how aggressive women can be over cheap Coach purses.. Damn... it was crazy..One lady bought 4 purses and 4 wallets.. This was the beginning smash and grab of 09.. If I had the funds I would have done the same... Perfect for ebay...

They had a double pack for $1.99 and a single one for $2.99 I believe (I guess it's better quality).

HTH! Smilie

I ordered coupons for the Electosol coming out this Sunday and while I was at Target today, I noticed that they are $4.29 a box! I don't use the stuff so I had no idea, but I sure hope there will be an upcoming deal somewhere on it. Not a SD at all!

Was hoping for 90% but still sitting at 75% and there is still some really good sh*t left! I thing I might hit it first thing in the morning.

Whoever did the ordering this year really placed a big one for the playdough. There are tons of that sitting everywhere.

Does anyone else feel lost with no target deals right now? I wandered around trying to figure out what I am supposed to be buying.
