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.

I didn't win either --- I tried to enter again but it told me that I could only enter once a day --- will have to try tomorrow Smilie

Thank you! I can only enter once - but hey I have until 02/02/09 - so I might win yet!
When I was doing it, it would say, "Come back tomorrow. . . " but then would let me enter again. Confused Maybe they changed it or something. . .

Oh hunny, he didn't want it to use it, he wanted it to be the @ss that he was!!! He kept EVERYTHING!!! Alexa still complains about her brand new bike and "lucky ducks" game that he kept! Ranting Poor kid, she was sooo young! I have bought her many things, but sometimes you can't replace certain things. Actually, I don't think it was the things as much as the idea behind it! What kind of a piece of scum keeps a little 5 year old girl's stuff from her? Mad Ok, enough of that talk! I am in a much better spot in my life now, and Alexa and I are stronger for surviving all that nod
Wow, that is one Class-A creep!!! The thought of that just makes me want to Blowup

So good that you are away from that one. . .

O M G.......I don't think I have EVER laughed so hard, I pulled out a tote of razors, can't remember if that deal was Venus or Phenom, but the tote has both. I am going to throw some random Target, gift cards, receipts and bags around my office (I actually HAVE the one from that day, I wrote on it because I called about her). I talked to my boss, and he spit out his coffee laughing! She is coming back in tomorrow at 9 am, I can hardly wait!!! He wants to interview her with me, but I doubt that he can keep a straight face. I did call Target to verify her employment, all they would do is verify dates (Which she EXTREMELY exagerated on) which is the same that I would do. Will let you know how it goes!
It's probably against some HR rules, but I so wish you could videotape that interaction. It would probably go over great on YouTube. Big Grin

Must. Have. VIDEO!!!

You could even make like it's some kind of pre-employment hypothetical test..."Let's say a customer comes in with some coupons and wants to buy some, um, oh, I dunno, RAZORS..." and then later on you could show her THE receipt and say, "Now, if you were the LOD/District Manager/Corporate, would you think there was anything wrong with this transaction?"

I wonder how long it would take her to realize....

'Course, this would only really work if you are in retail---pretty nonsuesssical to do it if you work for a data processing firm or the like.

Still, though, it'd be TOO farking funny to see the look on her face when she finally "gets it."

In my mind I see this playing out with the Target employee from the SNL skits.

Does anybody have the UPC of the South Beach Q for the cereal bars handy? It's not printing that Q anymore and just printing the other $2 Q for the meal bars. Thanks!!!
