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.

Quote from doublesided :
Just scanned last couple of pages in deals-those new people in the deals thread are morons. And we wonder why there's an update coming.

Went with DS earlier. Saw a couple of those pink trikes but don't need them so left them for a kid who does. Some Dora and Diego mega block sets for 50% off, didn't get them but they had a lot. Some wall-e sheets/blankets at 30-50% off. Lots of kids bathroom stuff too. Kitchen stuff was still 30%. Tons of clearance--
Anyone want to clue me in to what update is coming, or if it has been seen at some stores already?

There have been updates in the past that have never affected our area.

I really have not done a ton at T this year, after they made me mad right before New Years. I finally have been back in a little more lately. I must agree, though, the folks in the T thread these days are pretty lame. You might as well change the name of that thread to the "Tag" thread. At least two out of three posts latey have discussed the Tag.

Hope all of you are well. Smilie

Quote from ank220 :
Not much to say here - very busy day! We did a cookout with friends. Smilie

I did find a tearpad at Kroger - b2 Purex, get free clorox - only found 01.

Hope ya'll had great days. I plan to hit T on Monday - but I have no clue what the sales are yet!

Quick question - are there any deals on contact lens solution? No preference to brand - just want something cheap. Thanks!
Suggest you check Walgreens, if you have one. They had some small bottles marked down 75% at .87 each. Not a name brand, would likely have an orange tag if your store still has them.

Quote from greenbelt :
Mofo- where did you find the Cogate $3.00 printable- how did I miss that one? Football starts Friday nights with HS, Saturday is college (YSU and of course Ohio State), then Sunday ..GO Browns (we can dream LMAO ).
It was on coupons.com, only certain zipcodes got it. And I think it's gone now, sorry!
Buckeyes made it too close for comfort today...there's going to be lots of yelling this season, I can see it already! Annoyed

Quote from mamaoftwins2 :
I also think there are also many ignorant people who dont know its fraud to copy cpns..I was in the kohls thread and someone posted a pdf of scrubbing bubbles $7 and bogo cpns...I PM'ed them explaining it was fraud and they shld take it down and she had no idea abt it..She said she got it from a frnd...I can imagine how many pdfs might be circulating...
Once at Kmart and once somewhere else I found copied coupons sitting on the shelves. They are so obviously photocopied I just don't get it. Makes me mad too b/c they are messing with MY stores!

Quote from .teri. :
I don't think I've been over there in 5 months. Anything important is in here anyway. I love our little chat, target deals, publix, kmart, VS thread heart
nod Agreed!

I went to Cheeseburger in Paradise for dinner tonight with a friend. I'm a big parrothead and they sent me a bogo coupon for my bday, so I figured it was a good time to try it (it was an hour drive). Attached a pic of my drink - woohoo! Cheers

Anyways, there was a nice big Target nearby with the nice new carts that someone mentioned before (all plastic). I decided to have my way at this store and all went perfectly! Except the Glade Fabric and Air Odor Eliminator is definitely not TPC here $3.84, I just got it for $2.49 yesterday at another store!
But once again TQs rang up the normal way. I may take the boys out to the closest Target tomorrow (the one with the issues) and try a mild run just to see what happens. I'll let you all know how it goes!

Had a craptastical run today. Sizes fit but cashier took advanced hooked on phonics and called LOD as prices that were scanning were 'weird'. She had her K4 K1 whatever. Needless to say I've got some returns as I held back lots of coupons. As I'm checking out DH texts me "boob alert". I guess LJ was a little hungry. I hadn't been gone for more than an hour and fed him before I left. Have some pumped in freezer but DH said he'd hold him off til I got there. Oh and my kid gained 20 oz in 2 weeks. He's now 7 lbs 12 oz. He's a freaking chow hound!

Wow, that is amazing and awesome!!

I'm so jealous of all of you all w/your STC runs. Car trouble has sidelined me yet again. Grrrrr! No ice cream for me. . .Sadwalk

Hope all goes well next week and sizes are still comfy. The good part about living in the middle of nowhere is that we get the updates months and months after the rest of you all. We just got those newfangled registers that lots of you were getting last year.

Good news is that DH went to go look at a "new" old car for me tonight. Hopefully the peeps selling won't sell it to someone else before we can get it checked out. Yay for having a car w/air conditioning. Big Grin

I don't get it either. People are so stupid...we know the reds read the threads so why do they continue to keep handing over all our secrets to them??? Head Bang
Quote from mama2cole :
So my question to you all is... Do I stay at our condo tonight and watch the Gator game OR do I hit the local T and K here at the beach??? Hmmmmm ...
You go shopping for the first half and come back in time to catch the 2nd half Wink

Don't know about deals, but do know there was a q for $4 off Opti Free in a recent insert (maybe 2 weeks ago).

Thrifty... sorry about the run you had... good run vibes to you!!

SBhiggins... Awww I hope you look at the car and it fits your needs Smilie I totally understand about sizes.. I hope they stay this way till after Christmas then we can lose some weight and try new sizes hopefully

Stressing out tonight... we were out for quite awhile today @ Target and my husband has been having heart pulpations (sp) so we got home and he was going to go study (he is a Pharmacy student) and he went to school and called and told me he is going to the hospital as his pulpations are happening more frequently...

Quote from tootsie67 :
I don't even bother with our Publix. Someone completely farked up our store Annoyed They hold up each item with coupon and read every word. Not that this is a problem with a totally legit run, but it takes so long my ice cream melts. Seriously, I used 2 coupons that were actually peelies still on the products and she took them off and took about 5 minutes reading them. arugh!!!!! Shocking
hug That sucks. It feels like that here too. It must be a SFL thing...

Quote from crazy4vs :
Sorry to hear that Comfort I'm sure it wil blow over once the fraud dies down. This is the really big Publix that I've never had a problem in. I don't understand why people have to be a$%hats and ruin it for people trying to shop legit in the stores.
Thanks, hun. hug I'm guessing the fraudulent usage of coupons are just going to keep going up. Coupled with the upcoming changes in 2010, couponing is not going to be the same! shake head

Thanks guys!! I hope it is just from him taking the medications he has been taking which could be it... (he takes high blood pressure meds)... hopefully all will be OK!!

It is VERY sad that everyone uses coupons (IP's) and copies them.. I have even seen people copy mq's from the flyers... HELLO!?! Then we wonder why stores hate couponers... For instance today the lod @ my target hates couponers, me included I am sure... but she did not see any ip's so she didn't have to come and look at them to make sure they were all different...

Meesh - sorry you were posting as I was replying - I hope your dh is ok! SENDING POSITIVE THOUGHTS!!!! hug

Quote from BFshopgirl :
Ok, heres the run down of my trips... WTFEva! guess Im done there til the baby comes.... I shouldnt have ever been able to have 1 let alone my whole gaggle. Wink
I am sorry they treated you so shabbily!!! That is awful - they should have just given you the money! What happened at Kohl's?

I had a very small run and things went ok - only had 3 beeps and they were from the Chef M TQ and there were the right number of products so who knows.

There were NO Tags on sale - and worse no trikes at all ... I really want to get one for Miss M .... have to locate some dcpi's and hope for the best. The backpacks have FINALLY hit 30% here -- but none of the other school stuff is on sale yet. No peelies to be found anywhere ... Please send me some find a cute cheap trike thoughts Smilie

Never made it to kohls or WAGS ... not enough hours in the day.

Quote from georgiasurro :
Had 2 good runs today, one was a SUPER DUPER STC run! "morning" sickness is kicking my a$$...
YEAH on the runs AND on the embryos! Sorry about the ms - it is good to see you thought! hug

Quote from mamaoftwins2 :
I can imagine how many pdfs might be circulating...
Yeah but that is the stuff that kills us! I don't have a Publix but our local grocery store won't take IPs at all and Pick N Save will only take them for cents - not dollars or free. They are just too coupon shy. Crazy coupon behavior wrecks it! UGGG

I am crossing my fingers for ya!!! I am hoping to get a "new" old car after the first of the year so that we are not always sharing a vehicle ---- so I know how it goes! POSTIVE thoughts for you!! HUGS!!!

Teri - I missed your pictures and they are gone Frown Bet they were cute! However LOVE the avitar!!! That rocks!

Thrifty - I am sorry about the shopping trip - those things always make one want to pull out one's hair!!! YEAH YEAH YEAH on the weight gain by LJ ... you are making super milk there Mum! WTG!!!!

Meg - I am glad you had a good trip - hope you are hanging in! I think about you guys every day ... sending positive thoughts your way!

4BB - LOL about the Redneck thing! That is great!

Mofo - Glad that you had a good time! I haven't been to CIP in a few years - but I LOVED it!! YEAH on the shopping trip too! Hope your Lil guy is feeling better tomorrow and the fever is gone! Good luck with your trip tomorrow hope all goes well!

Is there anyway to silence the folks who spill secrets .... the KGB handled that effectively ... there has to be a SD way Wink
