My 100 calories didn't group together and the B3G1F TQ beeped and I had to tell him how much they were. I didn't think this would have been a problem, but it's Target, so you never know.
Cashier was a young boy, but would scan, check out how much it scanned for, say WOW, then scan the next. I was biting my fingernails, but I now have M&Ms for the lab snack fund (and quite a variety). I didn't find the Peanut Lovers variety though.
We had a really fun day today. I put the boys to sleep around 7:30 and went back to check on them about an hour ago. DS was talking to himself in bed and I could tell he was replaying his whole day. It was so freaking adorable!
CNN is just depressing. I made dinner and sat down to read it and lost my appetite. I think I am just going to bed...too much $hit wrong with the world these days.
Better times tomorrow.
Lorna Dunes
Honey Maid Graham swirly cinnamon bun looking things
12 ct. multi-pack (TQ was a beeper on these, but K'1d) - has chips ahoy crisps, lorna dune, & oreo somethings
Oreo Cakesters - choc & vanilla
Oreo Snack Cakes (look like chocolate cookies with white icing stripes)
Mister Salty Chocolate or yogurt pretzels
At my ST, some of these were in the cracker/chips/snack aisle, and some where in the aisle that said something like "lunch box" or "lunch" something. It had those big packs of single serve chips, etc... in the aisle.
It totally stinks about the oreos - the $1.50 off mq coupons beep, the TQ's beep, bah... Hasn't been a big issue here yet - but I know I've had cashiers in the past that would've freaked.
Diapers... I dunno. I used a mix of cloth and disposies - so I couldn't give you a good idea. Newborns were only a couple of packs - my kids grew quick.
Working in the yard today. DH is putting in a patio right now. Who was talking about T not selling pavers? I wish they did, I could afford to pave our entire yard!
Dia, Target does sell lawnmowers, etc but only online and I would imagine shipping is high, but then again, sometimes it worth it to use accumulated GC's if you are low on cash. I think the mowers they sell are electric though.
Was supposed to go to a movie tonight, but I can't seem to get up and I have no muscle relaxers or anything. It's annoying.
My Target got Visa's and Amex's!!!!
I am hoping that this means all stores will be getting them but I was so very excited to see them there today!
A question for the young mommies. I've started picking up diapers here and there for DD. How many newborn pks did you all go through. I don't remember squat it's been so long
Had our yard sale today. I did fairly well - 489.xx. Not too shabby! We close up around noon as that's when traffic really dries up. So almost $500 for 5 hrs of sitting in the sun - not bad! Will help out nicely with our road trip next week.
So tired. Must go to bed. Have a great weekend, all, if I don't manage to get back on!!

The peanut lovers stuff at my target is with the big assorted bags or hershey stuff, a little down from the big m&m bags..

Diapers- I had 3 big babies and one average size. The big kids (9 pound range) all used 3 bags or so of NB diapers, but my last DD used about 7or 8 bags. (she seemed to go through a ton of them)
I agree though that the biggest need was in size 3, 4, and 5. I had stockpiled size 6 too, but she never made it to them. I have about 35 packs of size 5 and 6 that I am going to sell at my next GS.
Now, I am thankful for all of the pullups I stockpiled. I just had hubby pull them all down from the attic.
Went to target tonight. Used a ton of coupons, and left pretty happy.. I didn't save as much as I would have liked, but had to get several things that I didn't have coupons for.. I guess I should be thankful for the savings.. It is funny, when I first started slickdealing, I was thrilled to get things cheap, then I got better and wasn't happy until I got them free, and now I want to make money each time.. It is an addiction I tell ya!
gator - as far as the PT goes, have you gotten the video from huggies. I saw something on TV about the potty dance or something. You can send off for some kind of PT kit I think. I have seen books in the bookstore as well, although I never used them.
Had hoped for a GS this weekend, but that didn't happen. maybe next week.
looks like some pretty decent GC deals at target this week.. I am thinking pullups, bounty, olay maybe... And I was looking at the p&g preview for 6/6.. looks like we get another gillete bw bogo
Life cereal TPC $2
Aunt Jemima syrup $3
Goes very well with the Quaker Qs.

I found a HoMedics Shiatsu Massage Cushion (MCS-100-1). [target.com]
The website lists it for $76.99. The original price listed on the clearance tag was $69.99.
The clearance price?
$8.74.
It was on an endcap with other items on clearance for 15% off. The box is a bit beat up. It might have been a display unit or a return. It looks brand new and boy does it work.

I had a MQ going and it disappeared on me - oh well...
Only thing my sun fried brain remembers is, no, my avi is different than MistyQs... mine is more of the cracked out Amy Winehouse Lady Gaga
TotallyTarget has a good scenario for the Olay that has a GC with it this next week combined with the extended $20 wyb $50 Olay rebate offer here [totallytarget.com] - but I think those $2 Qs will be beepers on that Olay stuff. Gets to be $5.52 for 8 items after Qs/GCs/Rebate
I love hearing about all the gardens. I have got to get going on one! At least some of the topsy turvey and pots. I do have basil and parsly in my window. I guess that's a start.

I hit Kmart real quick before I went to Target and found a $3 Head&Shoulders blinkie. I got $68 of Physicians Formula for $11.xx =) None of my $4 peelies beeped even when a few of the make up went below $4, it helped for the ones over $4. =D Talk about coupon nazi cashiers! Two of them had to examine the peelis for 10 minutes reading every tiny bit of the Qs and then asking did a peelie come off of this one, off of this one? Exactly why I haven't shopped there in over a year. They will deny a coupon for the lamest reasons.
Went to Target,
Used some coupons,
Left happy. =D
I was so happy to find the matching C9 pants for my DD, I got her a windbreaker but one store was out of the pants and this store had them. They also had ONE pair of the C9 flip flops for $3.xx and they were my size. I was SO happy to find them.
Got rid of most of my 5/31s, the good ones.
It's been a long day.
My brain has gone dead.... can someone post or PM me barney style the pop/soda deal... I'm just not seeing it. Duh!!
Teri - my grandson was 10 lbs 8 oz... he only used 1 bag of the newborn and 1 bag of size 1.. he is just outgrowing the size 2 now and he's 3 months old... but he's already 17 lbs and 28' long...
Ank - your posts always bring a smile to my face....
Hey Plffg - sorry you have insomnia... I have it chronic, if you need some sleeping pills I got lots.. lol or challenge me to a Mah Jong game on FB.. .lol
Dia - I have no idea how you retain all that info...
Hope everyone's GS went well or goes well... My daughter and SIL had an impromptu GS for me a couple of weeks ago when I was down in Wa.. they thought they would surprise me.
Did OK considering all I had in those zillion totes where - paper plates, kleenex, FP trio toys, Always, Glade candles and a few left over shampoo and deodorants. I thought I had alot more....
I was supposed to have one today, but I really don't have enough stockpile yet. Going down on Monday for 2 days to try and get more... Will have one in early July....
So this time next Sat. I will be in Maui with my granddaughter and Mom for 3 relaxing weeks. I'm so excited... My GD will dig up the message bottle from the beach that she buried last year with a letter to her daddy, so on fathers day she will add more to the bottle and bury it again.
My mom wanted to go before she dies she said... I guess at 78 she'd better go now. It will be more work for me since she can't walk much and mostly uses a wheelchair. but for all she's done for me, I don't mind.
Have a great weekend everyone.

BTW - speaking of popping into a book like Super Why --- did your older daughter ever watch Blues Clues? My lil guy used to watch Blues Clues video tapes we have from my older daughter and Steve would always talk about "Blue Skiddo We Can TOOO!" and then go into the book .... my lil guy spent hours one day yelling "Blue Skiddo WE CAN TOOOOOOOOOO!" and jumping onto a book and was really angry that he couldn't skiddo into the book like Blue & Steve! LOL
Better times tomorrow.
Ya know - that's a good point. Maybe I'll have 'em all yanked and stock up on ensure and pedialyte. Goodness knows I"ll have enough vitamins to supplement any other needs.
Oh, and if I can figure out how to package and properly/safely mail a cheesecake - you'll be first on the list!! Warning, once you eat one of my cheesecakes - you'll want to move to TN to be closer.
Monday we are going over a friends house and having a cookout. I'm taking cheesecakes - not sure if/what else I should bring. What's good picnic food that's relatively easy to make?
On a sucky note I DID make it to Target today and I shouldn't have wasted my time. I had one of the RUDEST encounters ever ----- it made me think lot of really impolite words about the young woman who 'helped' me. She was a manager who came over to do a supervisor override because the Scrubbing Bubbles BOGO coupon for the Fresh Brush is $6.29 and any coupon amount over $5 requires supervisor override. The cashier was perfectly polite and had scanned the coupon & was just awaiting the override and a chap came over and entered his number which didn't work --- he kept scowling at me and the machine and then told me he wasn't "really a supervisor" so his number wouldn't work. Whatever that meant. So he kept pressing buttons and the register kept saying something to the effect that "you are not allowed to do this override." So he backed up ... now remember the coupon has not been rescanned at this point and he has been pressing all kinds of buttons. Over comes Miss Snottypants and as I start to show her the 3 coupons and the 3 boxes of SB she told me to "Be quiet she was trying to read" as she stared at the coupon. Then she looked at the red screen and told me I was not able to use the coupon as it was --- yup say it with my guys - "One per purchase" and the computer wouldn't take 3. I said that didn't make any sense as they hadn't even entered ONE!!! I won't bore you with the entire story which involved her telling me that it wouldn't work and after 10 min I got her to back up to the screen that shows the purchases. I then spent another 10 mintues trying to get her to scan the coupon again and then it asked the amount which she typed in and then got the "Item not found" screen so she told me it was not the correct coupon and didn't match. I politely asked her to show me how it didn't match she told me she wouldn't and didn't have to anyway as the computer said it was wrong. She assured me that the computer wouldn't accept it anyway - I aked her to push K1 ... remember it has taken us ages to get to here. She pushes k1 and surprise surprise it works. At which point she tells me that I can use that 1 coupon but no other -- goes back to the 'purchase' argument. I tell her that makes no sense as she just saw that it worked - and she said that she had the right not to sell me anything and that I couldn't use the coupons and that if I looked up at the wall it showed that she had the right to determine the rules and decide what she would sell, to whom she would sell, and she could refuse all coupons if she wanted to. I tried to explain the policy but to no avail - so I told her to cancel and give my coupon back which at first she wouldn't do - but did in the end return it. Walking away telling me that I can call Guest Services she can do what she wants. I asked for her name 3 times before she gave it to me - it didn't match her nametag. Anyway - I didn't buy them - wasted 30 minutes over this - accomplished nothing - and as I exited she grinned up at the wall and nodded towards the signs posted - I didn't give her the satisfaction of stopping to read them but I doubt they say that she can do whatever she wants. Anyway - shouldn't have bothered.
Dia, Target does sell lawnmowers, etc but only online and I would imagine shipping is high, but then again, sometimes it worth it to use accumulated GC's if you are low on cash. I think the mowers they sell are electric though.
