Fandango Bucks~ I've read on here in various places that people were having their Fandango Bucks cancelled. So I decided to check on mine....and sure enough CANCELLED!

Try going HERE [fandango.com] and checking balance. Click on link at bottom.

If you can't get any info there, try using the codes and begin purchasing a ticket. There is a confirm page so you won't waste a ticket by trying.
All of mine are still in my email and everything. I even used them 2 weeks ago.
When I inquired via email, I was told my account was linked to an ongoing fraud investigation because I used multiple credit cards. (each one I converted was considered a credit card) Annoyed Whatev..
Mine appear to be OK. Thank goodness. I converted most of mine earlier in the promotion. I'm still finding peelies that I never converted EEK!

Ok, I'm braindead today. I remember reading where people used the Target coupon ~ $3 wyb Pampers dipes and wipes. How good is this coupon? You can pm me if you don't want to clog up the board.

Has anyone used the coupon for free $5 GC with purchase of scrubbing bubbles automatic shower cleaner? Charmin/Bounty coupon?

I really need to step up my game and I'm trying so hard...
As far as the pampers coupons go, I have been using them all week. They beep if you don't buy exactly what coupon states. If you do, they are beepless.

Quote from jetaime :
My friend gave me a flyer that has a venus & fusion coupon on it, as well as 2 bogo q's for shave gel on it. It is too big to have been in the inserts, does anyone know where it came from? Thanks!
Mine came from a loose sheet in the newspaper. It wasn't with the regular inserts - just one page. That is probably what it was from.

ETA: The real reason I came here (warning - whine ahead)

I ordered some q's for a sale at Kroger, and I ordered the wrong ones!! Frown I wanted the free Smart Balance Oil when you buy a Smart Balance spread coupon, and I accidentally ordered the free popcorn. Though I really needed/wanted the oil, It wouldn't be *that* bad except for the fact that I can't find the popcorn at my kroger stores! ARGH!!

Thanks for all the support you guys!! I wanted to come on here yesterday and brag but I was so afraid to jinx it. . . .his morning nap, he fussed for an hour and then slept for an hour.

But his afternoon nap, he slept TWO hours with not a peep, not a fuss, nothing!! Sorry, but that is by far his best nap ever. I was just busting all day, I couldn't believe it.

Last night was a little rocky, but not bad; we had one crying jag that lasted 1/2 hour, which was hard to sit through. Then I went to bed and DH said he woke up once around 3:30 and cried for 10 minutes, but then quieted down before he went in. So I'm counting that as a win. Slept til 6:30 this morning (much better than 5:45!).

This morning he fussed for about 20 minutes at the beginning of his nap, and now is asleep. woot



Quote from sungoddess7 :
Yay! The little guy was good! I'm glad it wasn't as bad as you thought it would be!
Quote from bblueskye :
That is great!
Thanks, guys!!

Quote from Dec12Girl :
Oh my goodness - that went so much better than it could have gone - YEAH!!!!! Congrats!!!!!



Now that is super cute!!! Oh man --- were you tempted to name him Cupid LOL
I've always liked the name "Valentina" for a girl. But then Salma Hayek named her daughter that, so oh well. laugh out loud

Quote from whatalotofstuff :

SB, I hope the baby sleeps for you again. I did exactly what you are doing right now with both my kids. It was hard - my daughter would cry and cry. I would wait about 15 minutes, go check on her, lay her down, pat her on the back and give her her blanket. She'd still be crying when I headed out of the room. Then, I would wait another 20-25 minutes and do the same thing. She would do this for 2 hours. Man, she was stubborn! But she finally began to realize after a short while that I was just next door and would check on her. Now, both of my kids are great sleepers. I hope he is just as good for you tonight, but hang in there!
I hope so too!! Yeah, that's where we're at. Last night we were waiting 5/10/12 minutes. Only had to do it once though. My DH actually seems to be better now at getting him calm-- I guess since he knows he's not getting fed.

Quote from plgffl :
SB- I feel for ya! My dd slept through the night since she was born and still does as of now at age 5. I did have to watch a little one overnights for a while and he was NOT fun! So exhausting that I told his parents I could not watch him anymore. Thankfully the mother was able to get her shifts changed.
What, are you trying to make me jealous?? Rofl2

Quote from doublesided :
SB-we were very big on cry it out early on. We never had an issue with his sleep and we do think it's because of it. He's been sleeping through the night since almost 3 months old. We started cry it out around 5 months. We found the FP aquarium to be fantastic because he soothes himself back to sleep with music. Once you can put other stuff in the crib when the baby is a year, that helps as well. Sometimes he just sits there and plays with his animals and cars until he falls back to sleep. It's an extremely rare occurrence that he'd cry out for us now since he's been self soothing for so long. When he does, we would go immediately as we know it's important and he knows that.

That's one of the reasons we are waiting as close to age 3 as possible for toddler bed transition. Pedi says less likely to wake up and wander in middle of night. We want no sleep interruptions, we are used to his straight 12 hours!
Thanks for all the advice DS! I was extremely afraid of letting him cry b/c he's quite highstrung and can get very upset very fast. You hear these horror stories about babies crying til they vomit or burst a blood vessel Cold and I was terrified of something like that. But so far. . . . so good. He has a musical mobile that I turn on when I leave and it does really seem to help keep him quiet long enough to go to sleep initially.

Quote from cherry822 :
Or Valentino?!
DH was born on Feb 13...and they were going to name him Valentino if he would have been born a day later! I'm glad he's a John! Smilie

Quote from sungoddess7 :
Whee Starting to freak just a little bit. DD's fever is up to 103.6... Dr says not to worry and give her motrin (I've been giving her Tylenol) and a tepid bath. Bringing her in tmw morning to get looked at. Poor girl is so blah and wants to lay there. Telling myself to not freak out yet...
Comfort Oh, how scary! I hope she feels better soon.

Quote from 4BusyBees :
SBH~ YAY! What a trooper! Good for you mama. There are so many of those moments. So glad that one went smoothly!
Thank you! It's just the beginning, but a good one.

Quote from kopenney :

I am a little jealous about babies sleeping though the night. Congrats to SB. I don't think either slept through the night until they were over a year. I just thought at that time that is the way it is for breastfeeding moms.
Thanks, but just to be clear, he didn't sleep through the night. I wish! It's just that I got to sleep for a while since he only woke up while my DH was on duty. Teehee

I was willing to feed him during the night when it was once or even twice but he was moving more and more of his feeding to the night and being difficult about feeding during the day, and that's just not right. Once they're over 15 lbs. they are physiologically capable to go through the night w/o eating. I was really afraid it would be miserable since he had been eating sometimes three times a night, but it seems like since it was my DH going to him, he just accepted the fact that he wasn't getting fed at night. He's been eating better during the day now, which is another bonus.

I am there with you guys, DS is 17 and hopefully no grandbabies for years to come... But since my dad died last month I do have a 78 yo step-mom in Depends. She is in an Alzheimer's care facility a few miles from my house so I just need to visit, restock her supplies and make sure they take good care of her. Thankfully she has enough money to be in a very nice place and she is seems to be really happy.

I think mine came from a RedPlum flyer in the mail.... We get them off and on and they are usually worthless, but this one was nice.
