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.

Quote from SoapNuts :
As a regular reader and occasional poster on this thread, I would like to thank you for all your hard work and many hours devoted to helping the rest of us. I especially appreciate your recaps when I return from vacation or haven't been able to keep up with the posts due to work, holidays or personal obligations. And I love the new format which makes being able to rep the OPs so easy. hug
When I have been able to keep up with this thread, I usually scroll thru your post, but when I'm behind, I search for your posts first.
So, on behalf of so many of us, thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU! And reps for all your efforts. hug
DITTO! thanks slowtech! you save me alot of reading when i just dont have the time. We're lucky to have you hug

No - not new here - been here since 2006. Thanks for asking.
As you can see i edited out my comment within 5 minutes of original post - misinterpreted rep comment. Did not have anything bad to say about slowtech's recap.

>>>>LET'S JUST STICK TO THE DEALS<<<<
Debate and drama as always in this thread. So many things to say about all of this. First off I don't see what the big deal about reps are, why people care so much to begin with. So what if you do or don't have reps it doesn't change anything, I should just disable my rep count because who cares. If people want to ask for reps or people want to give them so what. I don't see what the big deal is, other than the moderators have said not to ask for them. Personally I would not post to someone that they are not supposed to ask for reps, because I don't really care if they do or don't, anymore than I really care that someone posts you shouldn't ask for reps.

That being said is not to say I don't think that slowtech's work should not be appreciated. If people benefit they should appreciate it of course. I guess since the only way to appreciate anyone really is with reps that is what is done. Now personally I don't read all the recaps, but if I don't want to read them, the same with any other post I just scroll through it no big deal.

Now as to the comments from people after what ima gonna getit said . Yeah it is pretty obvious that some people are being very smart mouthed in their comments and are pretty immature. Because the fact is even if the poster (who has apologized and said he misunderstand slowtech's post anyway) had meant something more rude with his post anyway is not reason for some of the comments that are just plain stupid. Especially from grown adults, please! The ding ding the phone rings or some crap like was something my grade school child would say and was extremely rude and insulting IMO. Just goes to show the mature ones in the thread. Those who simply post nicely that slowtech was not asking for reps and works hard so be nice, as opposed to someone who said sometime asinine about it are doing the right thing.

I don't agree with the op when he thinks what la Teri said was rude, as she was just saying take it to the lounge. I agree this it where it belongs and not in the deal thread. Also Devilmomma was on the right track when she said no need to repeat a message so many times and clog up the thread even worse. Personally I don't see the need for so many people to say the same thing over and over again anyway. After the first person said what? slowtech isn't asking for reps, slowtech is saying to rep the op of the deals and additionally slowtech deserves reps anyway for for helping, then that should have been enough to have been said the first time.

That is what is clogging up the thread, two pages of the same explanation, we got it the first time already. Plus 20 unpleasant posts to read the same thing does ruin the thread. I would hazard to guess after seeing the repeat message from so many people saying the same thing is why ima gonna getit got upset and quoted everybody and put a repeat message under their quote. Basically he did the same thing they did. My head is spinning from all this.

Now since this is my opinion please lets not have a lot of comments going off on me for stating what I believe is the truth. I tried to be nice myself and didn't feel the need to bash anyone either, even after reading many things I didn't agree with.

I knew this was coming, and you just proved my point. You are very immature to post things like this. You know you are not the only one who could say something so stupid like this and a much better insult then this, but some people have more class.

So now my posts are stupid, as well as my being immature? Gee whiz...

Tell you what, let's talk Goody coupons!

FYI, the 'ringing phone' is an inside joke (for a group you're obviously not privileged enough to belong to), and MANY people in this thread know exactly what it means.

Trust me, friend, I can come up with much more articulate and damaging insults...

This is a big mQ sorry ya'll!
Quote from slowtech :
thanks guys! i wish people would lurk for at least a month b4 rushing in where angels fear to tread. i've been here awhile, that is a long while, and i still can't wrap my head around some of the deals... like tuna. i think i need multiple q's?
I just wanted to let you know that I highly appreciate your recaps! I do not get to the Target threads enough, because , well there is no Target near me. At least one that I will dare shop at, but thats another story! I love being able to look at more posts by you and finding past recaps for when I do make the 2.5 hour trip to target! So thank you! hug

Quote from Devilmomma :

Anyway, I survived. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. It wasn't TOO horrible. It was crowded, but was getting crazier as we were leaving. Good thing the parties are only 1 1/2 hrs. DD had a great time, that's all that matters anyway.
Your one brave momma! A friend's daughter had her bday party there and I was just like a fish out of water. Paranoid, overwhelmed and fed up with all the loud noises and craziness! Glad she had a great time though Smilie

I WAS THE WINDSHIELD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yahoo!


That was fun, but EXHAUSTING!!! I was gonna try K today too, but shake head too much for me today!!!
Im jealous of all you windshield peeps. Can you ship one of your targets to me?? I promise to play nice!!!

Glad you had a great trip! You are doing awesome in your recovery girl!

Quote from ima gonna getit :
FYI - I have contributed to many Target threads and do look at it frequently. So not NEW to thread like some assume.

I misunderstood slowtech comment on reps - so sue me. I took my comment down immediateley. So how about all you other people's "not so nice" comments and "bashing" what's your excuse?

Personally I don't like the recaps - it just clutters up the forum with stuff that's already been said - making it longer and longer and add that to all the "chat" and it's endless- so I usually just skip it, but notice I said nothing bad about that - just misinterpretted the rep comment. - grow up everyone and try to be nice.
<>
I am sorry you do not like the recaps. I like them because sometimes there is 40 new posts of stuff. I cannot read the Target threads every day because I do not have enough time quite frankly, and personally its a bit in the bumming department because of the way my target is.

Hi everyone Big Grin Hope all is well with everyone tonight!

Are you talking about when I stated that an Lod got mad that my friend used the Goody coupon that she said I couldn't use, and we found it funny she got mad because we each used one, so both of my coupons got used after all? And that you said it said one per visit, and I said many many people used more than one in a visit so big deal?

If so here is the recap, I thought you already read it and had let it go?

I reposted in an eggshell what had been deleted. My post were Mod altered and deleted as well, and I don't know why as nothing bad was said. Just the same as the above post, which I stand by. I don't think you would not disagree on this one, as there is no reason to. I'm sure you don't think we should make silly rhythms and kids things to make fun of each other. Actually your post are very tame compared to some others.

I wouldn't want to belong to your club, so big loss. And I don't hear anyone else in your exclusive club posting the phone is ringing, so obviously they have more class than you. Plus I get what it means mister. What was the big deal with the Goody thing anyway for you. Originally someone said an LOD at Target would only let them use 1 like coupon per purchase, and I said that happened to me with the Goody coupon. So what, why was me sticking up for someone a problem for you? I didn't say their phone or anybodies else's phone was ringing. I wouldn't have said anymore about the Goody, except that I got a comment from someone saying it said use one per visit. Now if everyone had only used one per visit I think that would be one thing, but that wasn't the case. Anyway by giving my friend the other to use, we did use one per visit. So big deal. That is hardly the same as saying the phone is ringing ha, ha. And I do think that is a stupid immature remark. I can't even believe you would think otherwise.

The phone is ringing statement has NOTHING to do with Target and/or their phones. Its a joke, simply a joke.

Now before you go off and bash me I do not understand your situation and I am staying out of it. I was just explaining about the phone is ringing thing.

That's because they're too busy laughing. Target chat thread=immature sense of humor...

Kinda like someone sticking up for slowtech was a problem for another poster...

Seriously, the problem I have with the Goody issue is, it said one per, and you laughingly posted about how you were able to circumvent that. Those are the kind of posts that WILL get everyone using more than one coupon. Maybe many people are using more than one; maybe they're not. BUT, if people POST about ways to do so, then the lurkers and neophytes will start to imitate them and abuse various coupons...

I never suggested that the comment (or myself, personally) weren't immature. It was more of a 'sticks and stones' type remark. *I* know I'm immature...and so do many of the posters here (almost ALL of whom I consider friends). So you're stating the obvious and thinking it's a zing...sorry.
