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.

It seems to be fixed. It was so weird. I was even at K at 8am on Sunday scanning toys and when I got home I tried to post about it but no luck. Oh well. At least it's working now.

I was bummed about the fake 75% toys rumor Frown I was hoping for cheapy Leapster games, etc. so hard to predict K's sales. Not that Target is much better these days. I'm still playing the 75% off waiting game Shocking


has anyone seen if the Summer line at T is going clearance yet? In the past, it followed the 4th of July stuff down to 90% but I haven't noticed any clearancing yet. Scratchchin

Will the 9 in front of the family code make it beep at target?
I was surprised, but I used 2 "9" coupons last week and no beeps! This is the only store that doesn't beep (that I've found so far).

Quote from .teri. :
Doh I forgot to buy papers yesterday Annoyed Huggies wipes q's are crazy expensive on fleabay EEK!
Try calling/visiting your local circulation office. I can typically get extra papers with inserts when I need 'em. And sometimes they will have some of the older ones also. You can see if they'll even give you a discount if you purchase several at a time.

Quote from tootsie67 :
I've had to much crap going on to actually get to T, but I don't like the idea of a 'yellow screen of death'. That would really prevent my under-the-radar-chicness. Scratchchin

hope everyone has a great day. I'm trying......is 9:45am too early for a glass of wine? Sadwalk
I haven't seen the yellow screen yet. I hope we don't. Frown Any friendly reds around that could maybe explain it? i.e. what causes it/how to avoid it?

Is it ever too early for a glass of wine?

Quote from 4BusyBees :
It's 5 o'clock somewhere Big Grin
J/k hug Hope your day gets better

Ok, I know there was some question about the H/S coupons. Mine have been doing just fine but yesterday prompted for price. Same store...weird. All other coupons worked just fine.

Oh and Bounty is still going strong!
Did you maybe have an unknown relative in your order?

Bounty? Can you maybe pm me?? Thanks!

Nope still full price here -

Quote from kopenney :
Also, I went visiting dd that just moved to Madison and there is a Super Target!!bounce bounce
Word of caution = they read EVERYTHING there! They follow the 1 TQ of each kind per transaction - it varies a bit on the MQ side. Also, they hit with the random "reasonable family quantities" ... not when ringing up, just when using coupons. I asked what a "reasonable" quantity was and a manager told me it entirely depended ... but wouldn't explain what it depended upon. Some folks there are very nice and polite while following the rules - others are just rude! It is a very nice clean store - and when you do get a cashier who knows how to use 1 MQ and 1 TQ per item and smiles - it is GREAT!!!!!

Quote from tmcws :
Yay! You visited Fitchburg! Teehee It's great, isn't it? I live about an hour from there but try and visit about once a month. It's amazing, and I want more ST's in this stupid state!

Glad to hear the Journal has the Huggies q's. My DH is out picking up my stack o' papers from the gas station now, and there's more WSJ's in there than anything. I heart that place for giving me the leftover papers on Mondays!!!
Man you are lucky!!!!! I haven't found anyone here who will let me have old papers - I even called the recycling place in Madison & they said no. Bah! BTW - when y'all make it to ST we should all meet Smilie

Quote from crazy4vs :
I wish I knew. I will venture to the deals thread and see if there are any reports.

ETA: The only posts I see are that it is coming up random on the amount of coupons used Dontknow
I was trying to ascertain as well, but didn't get any clarity.

Be careful if you do this. Yes newspapers will sell you back copies, but they don't always include the inserts.

I was going to post it over here, too, but I thought I saw it already posted in the T deals thread when I searched for "leapfrog".

Sorry, guys, wasn't trying to leave anybody out... Blush

ETA: Okay, I wasn't hallucinating when I searched the deals thread. Geetavee posted a link to the new LF toy MFQs almost two weeks ago...

So super-major thanks and reps to geetavee! Yahoo!

I searched and searched before the Kmart 50% and could NOT find ones for Leapster!!! Doh I only found the $10 for the new toy and a Tag coupon.

I always check before I leave. My newspaper office actually tries to separate out the ones with the inserts vs. the ones without. They also separate out any with missing sections, etc ... - but I suspect it's a ymmv issue. I'm in such a habit of checking anyways, since I don't like to be shorted at the store!

Do any of you know anything about the Little Leaps game?
My GD got one for her b-day but her Mom bought it second-hand (but unused) I think. It's one you use with a dvd player
Are the games for it the same as all Leapster games or no ?
TIA

I agree! I can't believe there are only 2 - one near Madison, the other Eau Claire. One in the Green Bay area & another in the La Crosse area would be nice. Then we'd have all 4 corners covered!

I've only been to the Fitchburg store about 4 times in the last year while traveling for soccer games, but I never had a problem with using more than 1 TQ / transaction. I think that's kind of silly anyway. How many people go to a store and only buy one of something when there's a coupon & it's on sale. I can see maybe 3-4 of each coupon if they want to limit it. Maybe things have changed since I was there last. I know it's always a YMMV when it comes to using coupons at Target!
