Guys here is a post from deals section from mom22boys:

went to fav. ST last night and had super coupon scrutiny. the clerk said they now couldn't take more than 1 like q and i said that was bs, pointed to sign above lane that said they'd take 1 per item. team leader came over and said to take them but he let me know nicely that their computers were being set up next wek or week after to limit all like q's to 6 automatically. i told him thanks for letting me know and i'd keep my numbers to that amount. at least it'll be even across the board over there now. but man, they were all over my q's!

that doesn't even make sense to tell her only 1 like q, and then turn around and tell her the registers are being programmed to take 6 like q's. Seems like they would have told her she could use 6.

Not a big deal for me as I very rarely use more than 6 of any like q anyway....I think it would be a good thing. Keep the smash and grabbers at bay. Would put some people right out of business.

I would agree that it would keep the s&g out of a store... however, say I use several DIFFERENT Proctor and Gamble or other mq family coupons that have the same family code how would they tell it is only 6 of the same coupon... I think that would be out of reality so to speak.. oh well we shall see.. hopefully the new updates will help us all with easy coupon usuage. Smilie

I went to do a few returns & some funky $h!t was goings ons with the whole thing! EEK!

I had bought 3 identical hasbro games where cashier wouldnt acccept the TQ and 2 LPS from one tranny and the princess trike from another. No reciepts so I had her do the look up....she scans one of the games and all is fine then she scans the other 2 identical games & the reg is telling her that they have aleadt been returns !?! AND that the LPS arent even found on the card ??? Then she does something and now cant locate the trike on my card! I KNOW that this card was used to buy all of it!!!! She tells me to do a no reciept return and I figure well hell what else am I going to do !?!

Once I get home, what do I find the reciepts stating that I DID IN FACT USE THE CARD!!!!! Must run for cover, they have flagged me...EEK! I am totally freaking out as this is the same store I said last week treated me all rude about the TQs etc and that I wouldnt be going back!!!

Scratchchin ya know, usually I stick to one family member per trip, so I wouldn't know how that would work. I'm sure we'll find a work around. We always do nod

I'm not ignoring you, I just don't know since I don't have little ones. Hope someone can help you though.

Time Traveler's Wife was soooooo long. Thank goodness the chairs were uncomfortable. If I was comfy I would have fallen asleep. Definitely a rental type movie.

Great run today, only the Starbucks didn't work for me either. kept prompting for price and saying item wasn't there....
What did you buy? The older style Mocha and Dark Chocolate Mocha bottles have short barcodes, the older and newer Vanilla have long barcodes, newer Dark Chocolate Mocha has long barcode. All of the Mocha seem to have short barcodes. Cans have long barcodes. laugh out loud Can you tell I have quite the stockpile in my cupboard?

I think the cans are TPC for $2. I thought they all were, but the bottles didn't ring up that price for me tonight. So I think it must just be the cans. The 4 packs had 55 peelies on them tonight.

I need to find some of these Starbucks Qs. Where are you guys finding them at?
I have been in the process of moving, and came home today and ALL of the GeoTrax I had got for Christmas were set up on my living room floor. Frown
Nono Oh wow! Who did it? I would be Ranting

Doesn't she work at Target too? I don't believe any of it. Try telling mfr's you are limiting the # of their coupons you are allowing to 6. I think it's something that person made up b/c their other rule was obviously made up too.

Ok, I got more Wheat Thins coupons (thanks again tots!) and had to go get more of my son's favorite crackers! Can I just say I h8 how different stores' prices are soooo different?

For example, Glade candles are $8.29 at this store! Shocking I would've used some different coupons had I known that! And the Wheat Thins that I bought for $2.04 on Tuesday were $2.84 there! Huh

I had some hoverers and a loudmouth behind me in line tonight which made me nervous, but all went well. Lady behind me was telling everyone I was mother of the year for using all those coupons and having 2 perfect little angel boys sitting in the cart patiently waiting (bribed by Food Ave items of course! laugh out loud )

Found more $3 Starbucks coffee peelies. And it appears the $2 TQs on the Glade Fabric and Air Odor Eliminator are being replenished. Makes for overage with the yellow free peelies on them. But some stores have the $2.49 TPC and some do not.

Wet Ones TPC for $1.99.

Sorry for all deals no chat. Here's some:
Remember I was asking for ideas for DS' Peanuts themed bday party? Well I bit the bullet and ordered some stuff from Amazon today (I did have a gc though). Well tonight at Target I bought his Halloween costume (Scooby Doo). For the last month I have been asking him are you having a Scooby Doo bday party (had already started thinking about ideas and buying small stuff)? And he says no Charlie Brown. So now that he has his costume, what does he say? Now I can have my Scooby Doo bday party! I say so we are having a Charlie Brown bday party, right? And he says no Scooby Doo! Blink I'm trying to see if I can cancel my order and get some Scooby stuff instead. And guess who just saw some Scooby stuff at Kmart this morning and didn't buy it? That's right, me! Ugh.

I really liked the Time Traveler's Wife. I cried my eyes out. I didn't read the book yet though, so maybe that helped?
