*laugh* Thanks... it is getting rough to bear sometimes. Although, it does give me the perfect excuse to stay inside and be lazy. Smilie

D12 - I told you wrong. This doubles (if you didn't already know) is only for health & beauty items Frown

No, it's almost never worth driving that far unless you really need more BW and Deo. laugh out loud Maybe if it was a Super K and you have a bunch of grocery high value $1/$2 and BOGO q's then maybe. Or if you were hitting other stores then it'd be def. worth the trip but T and Wags are in the crapper right now. Do you CVS? I don't very much (it's a PITA to use those ECB's when you don't live close) but there's some deals there this week.

Feel so deflated. Drove 3 hours to Austin to hit up some T's that hadn't gotten the update. Made sure that all my coupons were going to sail through, hauled butt around the store, got back to checkout and update hell.

*sigh* Camped out in a nice hotel room for the night. First time in a long time that I've been away from my hub and kids and it sucks! Miss them. Hate target.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on Kmart --- I am just trying to figure out what to do --- we have our small local grocery store & then Copps & Cub Foods & WAGS and T. Wags had been LESS THAN FRIENDLY and we all know about T and there is a CVS about 45 min from here but it is tiny and I have gone there a couple of times but they don't seem to carry much stuff & my ECB's all expired. BAH - sorry to complain to y'all! Thank you guys for your info heart

And since y'all are so informative - can someone PLEASE PLEASE tell me WHY I bought a set of Frebreze 01 coupons from ebay??????

Have you ever thought you were in the "trainee" line but were in the "trainer" line?.
Well - YES I have!!!!! Nice to know that I am not the only one though! Sigh

I did make it to T today and I got some cereal & some bars & some garbage bags. There were $1/1 MQ peelies on Glad garbage bags and there is the $1/1 TQ and they were on sale so it was $5.99 - $1 - $1 = $3.99 for 45 kitchen garbage bags (I didn't get the forceflex ones because they are the same thickness of .9MM if you read the description.) I thought that was a pretty good price for the bags. I also got milk & bread & apples & bananas but I didn't have coupons for those LOL Oh and a pack of superhero popsicles & klondike bars ... oh my goodness I LOVE those!!!

Looked ALLLLLLL over for those memo boards & paper mentioned by Dazzled but there was nothing on clearance in my store. The patio stuff is still only 30% off and MOST is gone. CRAZY!

Quote from ank220 :
But, I do have garden fresh tomatoes (which I've almost consumed 1/2 of already) and a ton of cukes!!! I love when folks bring in garden produce to church and say "here, take this..."

Didn't do T - organized some q's. But, I plan on doing 2 T runs tomorrow (maybe... and it's a huge maybe... I can fit in a 3rd...) I'm afraid I'm going to go early, so I am in "shop now" mode! *laugh* The great thing about the new Target is that I will have smaller and more concentrated runs! Hopefully it'll make it faster to shop. I guess we'll find out tomorrow.
Dude - I want neighbors like yours!!!!! I would love fresh veggies!

I am wishing you a good shop tomorrow - where you get all that you need & want for a mere pittance ... I am sure that feeling of worrying about coming early makes it more stressful! I am hoping that maybe the prices of those baby things will fall overnight Smilie

Quote from flugette :
But only the Up+Up brand, because I had left my TQs for the Charmin (or is it Cottonelle?) at home, and I just could not bring myself to buy it without those Qs.
I know that feeling!! I think that even WITH the $1/2 MQ and the $1/1 TQ for Charmin it is still really expensive ... prob cheaper buying UP+UP ... what do you think of that brand? I have bought the tissues (like kleenex) and I can't tell the difference ... do you find the same with the TP? Can you tell I need some as well Blush2

Enjoy the pie hug

Thanks - no I didn't know that ... I don't have a K near here it is about 90 min with NO traffic or hold ups to get to one & I don't know if they have groceries or anything in it (I have never been to it) I was just asking as T has taken a turn as you know. Thanks for the info!

I am so sorry!!!!! Do you mean that they did the update from the time you entered the store to the time you rang out? I thought updates occurred overnight? I am sorry! Sending HUGS HUGS HUGS

I didn't know there were any areas left that haven't experienced the oil spill. I haven't even tried my stores - I should've, but, I had used up all my moneymakers and just called it a day. This was right after Ariel broke the news. Sorry Comfort

Ok, so I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this... I bought some Gillette stuff with the BOGO, the 14 and I had some other P&G items, but none were above $8.89...So under my bounty of all things, the Gillette coupon "attached" but it was the oddest thing I have ever seen... It said, "MFR COUPON $38.55" There was no - after it and it didn't apply to my total HOWEVER, it did apply to my "YOU SAVED" total... Stragnest thing ever... Any thoughts? It happened with four of my bogos, including my Friskies Select bogos, which the item was $.67 and underneath it said, "MFR COUPON $38.55" and again no -.

I haven't seen that, but I need to use a couple bogo's today, so I'll see what it looks like on my receipt. Kind of weird. Would the total of all of your mfq's or at least your bogo mfq's = $38.55?? Weird...

Speaking of bogos - does anyone get the early inserts? I saw there's a bogo head and shoulders listed in this coming SS. I soooooo need h&s and I was wondering if they are K or T friendly. Thanks!

ETA:

Seller on eBay says they are 14's.

I have never seen that. That is very strange...wonder what it does to their accounting system?

I am happy that seems the only Qs affected by the update were the JMS ones. No crazy stuff like Ariel reported. $/2 and BOGO are working just as before.

I just love it when my 18mon little one walks up to me and has this quiet, intimate conversation with me. I have NO idea what she's saying, but its so precious!! And then she goes back to dancing to Bob and Larry. laugh out loud

Yeah, I wonder too... though, I suspect their accounting has been a mess for a while... laugh out loud

There's also a bogo olay cleanser - wondering if that's like the fancy olay's or what. Now for that one, I'm going to suspect it's a K sized q.

And laugh out loud on the kids conversation. My almost 3 year old (how on earth did *that* happen??? Faint ) will come up to me and say something and I have to have her repeat it like 12 times before I understand!!! Sometimes she'll speak as clear as a bell - and other times. Blah. But it is pretty adorable when they are so intent on what they are saying to you - even shaking their heads and looking at you with their big old eyes as if they fully believe you completely understand every word they say...

On a separate baby note.. i think this little bugger is trying to turn on me now. I'm bumped out on the sides in funky ways and I am *highly* uncomfy. I could hardly sleep last night - up and down all night and feeling like my belly was expanding and going to explode outwards. My skin is so sensitive that I almost wish we lived in a nudist colony right now!! I just hope she goes ahead and turns and stays that way... I really don't like the idea of a baby that lays sideways or refuses to turn - or maybe worse, can't make up her mind for a while. Ugh... that won't be comfy!!

She's been freaking me out too. She has become a LOT less active in the past few days. She'll still move a little or once in a while have a little jumping around party, but overall she's not nearly as active as she had been. Though, I suppose if she's growing like I suspect then she's probably running out of room. laugh out loud Still, makes me nervous when I don't feel her for a while and i have to force myself to lie down and wait for her to wiggle and kick! Right now she's letting me know she's there though, so all is good!

Well... I should finish my coffee and get out to the store. I am the worst in the world at remembering to get the car seat out of dh's car. GRRRR... I am going to have to leave the girls home and run for a bit. *sigh* Maybe I should go to T first and bite the bullet and get me a car seat. LOL. I could keep the receipt and if they go lower do a buy/return I suppose. Hmm.... ideas ideas...
