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.

I don't they are kidding.
Remember when the cashier scans the wrong side weird things happen now.
I am liking it the way it is now and I agree no fun with updates.

I am so not ready for Kmart this week.

Thrifty, I want to babysit! I will take loads of baby pictures for you too. I think I want to be a grandma. Like now! Well, maybe my kids should wait a bit. The big one is only 22 and the baby is 18. By golly, Thrifty's baby is so cute. I want one to play with and send home.

Wish I was. Someone posted the link here not long ago, but basically it's been phasing for awhile. Use to be only the left side was on the coupon. Next phase was to add the right side (that the cashier covers up). Final stage is to do away with the left side and the only thing on the q will be what is now the right side. IIRC it's early 2010 Sadwalk

Ok, off to Publix, Harris Teeter and Target.....hope I make it to all three before I run out of air... I have my handy little inhaler the doctor gave me last week so Nikki, if you see a crazed women running through target it's me, the inhaler is like taking a hit of speed Roll

ETA: Obviously, it also makes one quote themselves Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

In 2010 the left side of the barcode will not be used, only the right side....which is exactly opposite of what it is now.
isn't this what Voldemort was hawking about for so long? Looks like we have some high hoarding/stockpiling to do before next year Sadwalk I don't have nearly enough razors.....

Not yesterday she didnt.. but other nights, if I am good and cook ahead so DH doesnt have to do it or the kids... she will STILL bring food over Frown She doesnt get it.

Well if DH is home from work at a decent time, yes, they eat between 5:30 and 6. When I am home, I try for 6-6:30. My kids will usually have a snack before bed. Although I think all 4 are going through a growth spurt at once and food is just disappearing fast around here!

and a baby Q that expired 8/26 is not beeping expired

Yep, Voldemort was talking about it. There are some articles about it online. They will have the coding in the second barcode ( and the ability to code it to work as intended ), serial numbers and a few other things Annoyed For the retailers it's an easy fix a chip installed in the scanners and a software downlaod. An easy transition for them. Plus they will be able to transmit the coupons electronically to the clearing houses to get their money in 7-10 days as opposed to a couple of months like it is now.

I imagine some manufacturers won't do away with the left barcode though. It's optional for them. If they do away with it, I imagine we will see the end of PDF coupons if they take the left barcode away. Sadwalk

Thanks.. I just hate the fact that its "grammy said"... whatever.. geesh, cant they be thankful I was bringing a pizza??? Nothing I ever do is right. The past week I have gotten more "Quit your job, daddy makes enough.. you are never home" than ever before Frown It sucks and stings.. as I have no idea where my marriage is going, the last thing I want to do is quit! This started because of that smart mouth comment about dinner time.. I sent my son to his room and he in turn told me he was running away and took off running (to grams next door). Yeah, like I can catch him...ughh.. can we call a redo?
I am sorry - being a parent is complicated and when you are undermined it is worse! I was a single Mum of my oldest 2 and the Dad of the youngest 3 is around .... I swear that sometimes the single Mum bit (although mind-shatteringly tiring) is easier!! I am sending HUGS and thoughts for a better week!

So basically this is the end of couponing as it exists now? I ask because we don't have the variety of shops that do great deals ... no Publix, Teeter, Meijer, Krogers .... etc. Sigh, now I am feeling like a chump for not figuring out more time to hoard -

I am thinking of the TP & Paper Towels & Diapers ..... and if one were to hoard enough to last the next few years - WHERE ON EARTH would one put them?????? This sucks! Sadwalk

Just came here to Stress

I just had a day from hell at home with the kids.. walked in with pizza at 5:45 after T trip for the week to the comment "Grammy says dinner is at 4, not 6". It went down hill from there. I feel like such a failure as a mom tonight and just want to curl up and cry.
hug Grammy wouldn't like it at my house at all. Sometimes we eat dinner between 8 and 9. Mini knows where the snacks are.

My house in NE is next door to my parents. Mini has run away on more than one occasion. Heck, I welcome it, it means she is safe and I get some much needed me time to collect my whits.

Need to get my booty off to T today. We are out of bread, milk, creamer, and coffee. I know how can we be out of coffee. Well, during the CL B2's I was all about the 1/2 caf. DH has completely quit drinking (over 2 mos sober) and 1/2 caf isn't enough. 1) can I mix reg coffee to the 1/2 caf to salvage it? 2) are there any good deals on coffee right now. I even went through the stockpile of T single serve packages that I had stashed in the freezer.

Oh and today is Meema and Poohba's 40th wedding anniversary! Whee
