Didn't want to post this on Deals for all the n00bs but wanted to share with all my 'friends' here! If you weren't able to print a Pace coupon, here's [smartsource.com] a link to print about, I don't know, maybe 10 or so! All different PINs so they're valid. Good luck!

Aw crap, just saw your post SunGoddess... didn't mean to step on your sunny toes! Smilie I got so excited when I saw this posted somewhere else I just had to share! LOL!

Ms. T - sorry for your collision (that's what they're called here in the Insurance world!) - hope you feel better. That sucks!!!

Did anyone else's Qs look kinda funny? The numbers under the bar code are really light and not quite all there. . .

Anyway, I think regular price for the small ones are like 2.50 or so at T and WM, so the $4 Q will provide overage (or a total freakout, you never know laugh out loud). You could also get a bigger size for a small OOP.

Yeah, my numbers under the upc is also pretty light (gray-ish as opposed to black) and I have a laser printer. HTH. As long as the upc scans, I'm good (haven't tried it yet)! Wink

Thanks for the info on the costs!! bounce

Mad Crying2 I can't for the life of me figure out this printer. I updated all java etc. I have a new wifi printer (Hp J6480) My son cant even print his report. It will print a test page from the troubleshooter but other than that it says it's offline of disconnected. I have been working on this forever. I made sure I had all updated drivers. We were able to print from laptop before. Now we cant print from laptop or PC.

For example, when I go to print the pace q's. The printer icon even pops up on the bottom but nothing happens and it goes away.
When DS tried to print his report from the laptop it says offline. I even tried using USB to plug in.

I've tried rebooting, unplugging etc.

This is driving me crazy. I want to cry.

Aw, that sucks. It drives me nuts when I can't figure out a tech problem. I ran into something similar to this when I updated my firewall (ZoneAlarm) and found I couldn't print anymore. I had to add the printer's IP address to my trusted zone in order to have ZoneAlarm to 'allow' the printing. Maybe something to do with your wifi/router settings? I hope you can get an answer soon! hug

Ok, try this.... unplug EVERYTHING (except the main computer where the router is plug in-probably the PC). Shut down both computers and wait with everything off for a couple of minutes - maybe 2 or 3 minutes.

Plug everything back in/turn on in this order.
Router first. Let it boot up - give it a minute (or first the modem then the router, depending on the setup). Let this all setup for a minute - then plug in any switches (ie: anything that allows you to connect more than one device - if you have one of these, you may not). Then the PC - give it a minute to run through everything. Then the printer.
Try printing.

I just went through this with my friend across the street - her daughter came home from college for spring break and hasn't been able to connect to the wireless network. Just went over there (about 10 minutes ago!) and unplugged, restarted everything - worked like a charm and she's face-booking away! LOL!

Hope that helps. If not, you might need to call your cable company to get the device (forget what it's called) connected to the network if it's a secure network. Good luck!

Does anyone's Target ad say that they will price match? I saw in another thread that on page 9 of some ads it says that. Sadly, mine does not.


I found the following coupons at my supermarket today:
  • Save $1 on two packages of Oscar Mayer deli fresh meats 5 44700 20033
  • Save $1 on any two Crystal Light products and any one water product 5 43000 85033
  • Free Cool Whip wyb Nilla Wafers, Jello pudding and Philadelphia cream cheese 5 43000 26001
  • $1 off Nabisco cookies or crackers wyb Starbucks or Seattle's Best coofee 5 44000 00076
PM me if anyone wants to to pick up some for you!

You guys did it! Your ideas worked. I got the laptop back online and DS printed his report. I still can't get the Pace to print on either computer though. PC looks like its spooling but comes up nothing. (spooling issue?) and laptop says internal error.

Isn't it the worst feeling when you can't get something to work? UGH!

Thanks hug

Sometimes it takes 5+ minutes for those damn smartsouce coupons to print. Those little swirly circles just sit there forever. If it shows documents spooling, it will eventually print, just be patient Smilie

On a more sad note, I'm done with Target. I had my last bad experience there yesterday when my mother was in town visiting. The Target at the Waterfordlakes shopping center in Orlando has always been rather coupon unfriendly, but this last experience just completely turned me off their store.

I went to get some razors, 2 pledge dusters (TPC for 2.50), and 4 individual cheetos. I hadn't actually had a problem with the 1 coupon per transaction thing as I hadn't used any with that wording yet. My mother buys her 2 packages of razors, the cheetos, and the pledge. The cheetos TQ beeps and the cashier doesn't know what to do so calls over the lead on duty. Whore mouth comes over (lead on duty over there, if you've ever seen her, you know who I'm talking about) and starts harassing my mother and I about only being able to use 1 coupon and how the cheetos coupon is supposed to be used on big bags. I insist there is no size requirement listed on the coupon and therefore I should be able to use it on anything. She eventually relents, but then starts going off about 1 per transaction and how we can't buy more than 1. I said fine, had them take off the other 3 cheetos and my mother's 2nd pledge duster thing, added 1 bag of cheetos and the pledge duster to the razors I was going to buy and then put the other 2 bags of cheetos on the shelf.

The whore mouth flips out and says you can't do that! It's one per transactoin and since you two are together you can't both use one. I try to explain what "transaction" means, and that I have every right to use a coupon on MY purchase. I ask to speak to her manager because I'm pissed, have had issues with her before, and am just tired of it. She calls over another lead, and immediately starts running her mouth to her about how I "always give her grief over my coupons and how much of a pain I am" I was so shocked and insulted I replied with "Well that's because you're always a BITCH." She flips out and radios for security. The head manager runs out, sends whore mouth packing when the situation is explained, and lets me use the 2nd pledge coupon without a problem. Regardless of having actually been able to use the other stupid pledge ocupon, I'm sick of because harassed and treated like a criminal at this store. I'm only going to go back one more time, and that's to get whoremouth's name so I can file a complaint with corporate.

I was so pissed. I've never called anyone who I wasn't friends with an insult like that. I just couldn't believe she started insulting me to another lead! I don't even feel bad about cursing at her. My mom told me after the fact that she was really surprised I didn't say much, much worse and was impressed with my restraint.

I have decidied that I need to call corp/800# with any and every complaint I have about anyone in any store. So many people are harrasssed and do nothing about it. That is leaving these 'bad children' to continue to 'misbehave' because they are going un-checked.

I'm not going to piss and moan or whine about it, I will clearly state my complaint so that SOMEONE knows that this employee is not following the basic guidelines of good customer service.

I was horribly harrassed at my closest FL by an evil bitch AM that was clearly just jealous of my shopping ability. I decided to fill out the survey o my receipt and noted her attitude towards me and that until she was no longer an employee at the store or she had a formal apoligie (sp?) for me I would not shop thier store anymore.

While this hurts me probibly more than it hurts them, I am standing my ground. I used to spend a minimum BC $150 a week in that store. That's $600 a month, $4800 a year they will not be getting from my family! If that is a loss they would like to have fine by me Stick Out Tongue but that evil bitch will not have the satisfaction of treating me like that again.
