I am obsessed with finding those darn things tooLMAO My DD loves ducks and I haven't seen that anywhere.. We found the sheep, lion, pig, and fish.. although out of those, fish is the only one she really identifies right now.. I would love to find the duck, dog, and bug.. I have been to most targets in the area with no luck.. gonna keep checking. Anyone have the dcpi for those and I can check online??

Got turned down on using the cranium coupons on hullabaloo tonight. The bar codes don't match and beeped. I tried arguing that is was a cranium game, but no luck. He told me it must be for another game. I got them anyway with the TQ and they will make great gifts for someone.

Other that stopping by one store looking for clearance, I just relaxed with the family today. Seems like since the 7/31 qs expired, I don't have much reason to go.. or atleast none I can find yet.

Kinda bummed at myself, I bought glad b2g1 qs a few weeks back and can't find them now.. gotta keep looking..
Good luck! The best I could find on the Target mobile was large/ medium/small. I guess it's broken down by letter count? It's a generic DPCI for each size.

OMG! The Mary Kay Lady OMG
I finally escaped her after I moved AND changed jobs 2 years ago! I didn't think I would EVER get rid of her.....all because I got sucked in on the free facial BS along with a few co-workers. It will NEVER happen again!

OMG, you too?!!?!? A friend invited me over for an afternoon without kids (yeah, that's always the bait, right??) for a free facial which ended up with me being given a popsicle stick with lotion on it to smear onto myself. 1 year of phone calls would ensue after this exchange. I called this lady the "Spider Monkey". She was loud, hyper, etc. laugh out loud The name spread like wildfire throughout my circle of friends as she stalked all of us. I literally had to write her a formal letter asking her to not contact me again nor setup appointments without my consent. what a nightmare!!!!

Ack, I knew I shouldn't have looked. LOL I NEEEDDD the Word World duck, sheep, bug and dog now. Is it sad that I used a trip to a museum as an excuse to stalk Targets for those toys?
Quote from sungoddess7 :
laugh out loud I totally get it! I passed by those things so many times, but after seeing good reviews for them I picked up 4 today! Doh DD did seem to enjoy them so we'll see! $2.48 is not bad for each one. I will probably try and see if another ST has any of these things in stock tmw! Good luck on your search!
I looked at my stores, but from tomorrow on, the word world toys were either all gone or (get this) missing one of the "letters" - maybe it's the same folks who tear up the glade packs laugh out loud

Anyway, I gave DS the pig today and he really wasn't all that excited about it. I've still got sheep, bee, and fish left. I'll see how DS does with the pig in the next week, but if he still isn't interested, I may return them if there isn't anyone who wants them.

Hi all-- I'm copying a post I just made to the CVS FAQ thread. If anyone here has any advice, I'd heart it. Smilie
Hi SB... now I just started CVSing, so I may not have great CVS specific advice, but here is what I thought of. If there is someone who did the photobook deal who wouldn't mind scanning in their reciept (with their card number blocked out, of course) showing "limit reached" at the 5 books, you could print it out and then show it to them when you go back to finish up the one photo book that they said they'd give you. Basically, "I had my friend/sister/mother/aunt/etc send me a picture of her receipt and I wanted to show it to you. I got the impression last time that you thought I had lied to you about the limit on this offer. I just wanted to show you this receipt to remove any doubts you may have about my honesty."
HTH hug (btw, I'd scan in a receipt for you, but I didn't do any of the photo deals)

Problem is, no one would have a receipt showing limit 5 because it was never in the system as 5. It was advertised on a sign in the store as 5, but cvs computers had it in the system as limit 1. I heard that many stores reported receiving an email from CS telling them to take down the signs. Many people had good luck getting the ecbs done manually though when they pointed out the signs.
As far as contacting CS. I prefer the email way as well, but have not always had good luck with the response that way. Seems to be easier to explain and get a definite answer if you call, IMO.

I thought that the photobooks WERE limit 5 (and printing as such), and that it was the DVDs where the limit got changed back to 1. Confused

Thanks, B. hug I thought of that. I'm afraid these dimwits wouldn't accept anything other than the word from "on high." Teehee Before today, I would have said they were incompetent but nice. Now I'll just say incompetent. They really know nothing about their own systems at all.

Oops, I am sorry, you are correct. The DVD limit was 1, but sign in store said 5, and book limit was 5, but ad said 1LMAO .. I guess I am too tired tonight and was thinking about the DVD's. You are correct, the limit on the books was 5, but was advertised in the flyer as 1. I remember having a hard time getting rain checks because I had made one and they told me my limit was reached. As far as the receipt goes, not sure if they would accept that. Although if someone did reach the limit and make all 5, the receipt would just say "photobooks" and offer limit reached* . I don't think it would list how many you bought anyway. I hope that CS gets this straight for you.

okay, I am going to refrain from any more answers.. I went to bed at 3 am last night and my DD decided she was ready to get up at 4:30.. It has been a long day.

Sorry for any confusionWink
