Ahh I see. I didnt know the other poster may have been using the 01's.

My jedi was scanning, then it would beep, I had her hit clear and made sure it was just the left barcode, it still did it. My cashiers almost always use the hand scanner, it works faster that way. Today was the hand scanners all day.

IDK about the different varieties. I mean then none of the Qs should have worked if that was the case. That is the thing, I know that I did all the right things, bc the 1st of each Q auto'd for the way we like them too.


What can I say, I am just sooo lucky Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)laugh out loud Frown
*sigh* Just sounds so sad... Sadwalk

Quote from flugette :
My store was hit, too. Tried out Clorox and Cesar. First Q autos as we're used to, then the next Q autos the next lowest item, and then the third q beeps INF, and pulls up the screen to choose the item. When the item is selected, it goes through. The Olay/Ivory BOGO worked fine as well.

One other of my Qs that I had multiples of beeped INF when it had not before, maybe the Nexcare?

Seems like an update that is still getting kinks worked out. I think the upshot is - no more overage but stuff is still free. At least that's how my transaction worked.
Ugh... you aren't too far from me!! I may have to test some waters tomorrow. Frown

Teri - I was posting in reply to that person b/c I thought maybe they had the same probs as Ariel did. They are from AZ. I'm from IL (and I'll be crying when this update hits (it hasn't yet)). Smilie
Actually, it has.

It happened late last week only on the Smuckers Q so I thought it was a fluke or something I did. I haven't shopped since then so I have no idea if it has spread to other Qs or other stores. I thought it was really weird that the register said "select free item". I thought maybe I didn't get enough Smuckers and kept meaning to look at my receipt but never got around to it. I think I've thrown it away now. The cashier told me that they just got that update but I just ignored him because we all know how they like to talk about things they know nothing about. Sadwalk

Being the savvy shoppers we are, we'll keep rolling with this and learn to work it Wink It really SUCKS, but at the same time sounds at least a bit hopeful in regards to the way the q's are working. We'll have to compare notes, for sure.

Sounds to me like they are trying to make the 16's autodeduct like the 14's. Highest to lowest. That doesn't explain why it would beep after x number of coupons, but makes sense why it took the first off at the high price, and then the whiska's at .52.

Nope. Only difference is a sad, little amount of savings at the bottom. I haven't seen that little saving since I started SDing......
It's not going to look different because it auto'd off the highest price and attached and then when they picked the item it attached because they picked it.

It would only look different if you used (for instance) ten b2g1 and all 10 attached highest to lowest.

They can also roll out different updates to different stores. We're doing it right now in our stores with another program (not Target stores). So it would make complete sense that some of us experience things that others don't. Yes, we'll have to compare notes to see what each area has going on.

Thanks, at least I know where I got IL from laugh out loud


I hope it hasn't hit here yet, I've got a load of q's to use up.
Teehee It hit Ariel yesterday but I used the same ones and it still worked for me. I'll cry all the way home if this thing gets killed before I can use them up.

But your other q's worked right?? Makes no sense that all 01's wouldn't act the same, all 14's, and all 16's ya know?

Ariel is a seasoned pro though, so I doubt she gave TQ's first or anything like that. It'll be interesting to find out what's going on in her neck of the woods. Do we have any more folks in her area that could confirm similar experiences??
Ariel is definitely a seasoned pro! I've shopped with her and she is very methodical.
