I was fairly certain what the policy is supposed to be but like with a lot of things, some dictators in stores think they can make their own policy. Like lining up your items and matching the coupons with them before even ringing anything up. Doesn't bother me if I only have a few coupons and items, or if they have adequate reading comprehension skills.
I asked why he didn't just exchange the PullUps and was given a snotty look. Him and the snippy GSTL that was helping him.
Anyone have any flavor recommendations for the Sobe Lifewater?? Believe it or not I've never done this deal - it always seems like I have too many other deals I'm trying to partake in at the time. Thought I'd try it this time around. What does it taste like?? Just lightly flavored water??
bottle caps = 3 pts
you can enter 10 codes per day I think. HTH
ETA: tots05 beat me to it!

eta How do you handle people that criticize your stockpile? An acquintance was at my house Sunday, I watched her son while she did some errands. When she came back, I offered her some of my 8 yr old son's outgrown clothing (I can imagine how hard it is to be a single mom). After giving her 3 bags of clothing, including 20 pairs of Gymboree pants and shorts (some with tags still on them), more than 10 shirts etc, she commented that I need to have someone from "one of those TV shows" clean up my basement, and donate all that stuff to Goodwill etc. Excuse the heck out of me. I donate 100s of lbs of food to the food bank every year, an equal amount of stuff to the domestic violence shelter, boxes of new toys to Toys for Tots, as well as finding people I meet that could use some help, and give them the gently used kids clothing that in the past I would have sold on eBay. To be told I needed one of those clutter experts to "help" me. I wasn't expecting that.
I had invited her and her son to go to the movies with us this weekend. She would have to buy her own ticket but the child's ticket and part of concessions are paid courtesy of Kellogg's and Disney. Is it wrong for me to feel hurt by the comments? I surely wouldn't go into someone's home and criticize them for anything.

I would feel hurt by the comments too. My sister does that kind of crap to me all the time. I wouldnt go into someone's home and criticize them either but maybe thats b/c we have a brain and some heart.
It's kind of like going up to someone in a grocery store and commenting on their weight.

Went to my used to be favorite T. Took my last SB GC toupon with me. Spent almost an hour rounding up a cart full. Went up to the register and was informed that the bottle with the sprayer top was neither a starter kit nor the extend-a-clean. So I said, "Seriosly? I've bought this exact same thing using this exact same coupon in this very store several times." So dingbat goes and asks another cashier. Ugh. She said she wouldn't take it. So I told her to have a nice day putting all my stuff back on the shelves. Went to another T. They were out of SB.

I also agree that sometimes people make snide comments because they are jealous, not to mention uninformed. I don't think they realize just how much savings can be had by clipping coupons and shopping sales.

I am sorry your friend said something so rude and insensitive to you. I really think a lot of people are jealous of us from cashiers to managers to friends and family members. It takes brains to do what we do. She probably just wished she had the stockpile you had. I wouldn't let it bother you, I know easier said than done.
eta: and all the other celebrants! Wow, didn't see that there were so many anniversary's in here today.
Went to use my sb $5gc q's and was told only 1 per transaction was allowed. Tried to read the coupon to them and tell them their own policy but was shut down by gstl and told that is there policy and so be it. Then he went through my bags and told me that they limit to family size quantities. I was buying 8, which is a lot for some people but not my house, but don't start making things up and pull shit out your ass because I am standing my ground.
Finally said that I would do 8 sep transactions after snide remarks. The person checking me out ended up doing them all on one transaction and guess what, they all scanned no beeps.
Came home flaming, mad not gay, and called corporate who were more than helpful giving me a $10 gc for my trouble. I told the lady that I have 3 bathrooms and that product only lasts for one cleaning in my house! God knows I wouldn't actually spend money on this product with how much I have to use but hey when I am making money I'll clean with q-tips if they are free!

The picture is right there on the coupons.
Ask them, if it's not the starter kit, why does it have refills?
