I logged out, logged back in; same result. Tried another code; same result. I finally had to create a new account under a different name & e-mail address and was then able to order another pizza.
In the past, I've ordered two pizzas without a problem, using two different codes, and ordering separately of course. I guess Papa no longer likes me getting two free pizzas at one time!

I learned today that you should not send an SDer to T when they've got 75% off of the dollar spot... picked up finger paints, pencils, cards, stickers, bowls, cups, bags, straws, and other miscellaneous bits for .25 each!! I found some neat toys too - ST didn't have the 50% markdowns, so I need to go check out the dinky T and see what they have. I got some LPS, Toystory color wonder crayola stuff, a swing, and a few miscellaneous little things that i didn't want to wait on too long. I was really excited about the swing - it hangs from the tree and DD is going to flip when she sees it (we're saving it for her Bday)!
You should also not send aforementioned SDer to T when she is pregnant and hungry because she comes home with steak, doritos, and cherries (which were not on the list). I forgot my gold n plump chicken coupons, but since we were cooking out for friends, I bought it anyways.
great run at T today. got so much stuff my cart was overflowing. Found a girls toddler bedding set marked down from 59.99 to 7.xx, a girls full size bedding set marked down from 69.99 to 17.xx, Circo rug marked down to 17.xx (can't remember the original price but was 60 or 70.00 I think), Circo girls bookcase from 79.00 (I think) to 17.xx. Not much else, some nice shower curtains but still marked at about 17.00. Virtually no patio items left except a few flower pots, saw none of the 75% thermos grills either.
Our patio section is one row of a couple of grills and chairs - and they are at 15% off still.

ank - how are you feeling? when is your due date??
I am due on 8/20... I feel like I could go any day though.
Sorry to hear about the coconut milk ank All of my allergies changed during pregnancy, some better some worse. Seasonal allergies completely went away but food allergies intensified. And then after the pregnancy seasonal allergies went back to normal and food allergies were still intense, as we found out soon after dd was born....not fair!

Me too, won't drink coffee w/o it except I like the liquid not the powder
I like the liquid coffee mate too, but I (normally) am so addicted to coffee that I'll drink it black.
The haggling is one of the worst - especially the ones that do like you said and TELL you what they are going to pay you. And it is amusing what folks will pay for stuff at retail or close to it.
My DH will give anyone almost any cash if he has it. I'm more of the "here, let me go get you a gallon or two of gas or some McD's, or some food from the grocery store that we happen to be outside of..." Funny how they don't want to take you up on that...
I guess I would tell her sorry, but you don't have/have not seen those diapers. You've got no way of knowing for sure that she really left them behind. And like someone else pointed out - how do you leave behind that many diapers and neither you guys or she realize it?? I mean, if someone leaves behind a shampoo, *I* notice it and will hunt them down at that sale or will keep it for next time. (but maybe I have a good memory for that stuff) However, this situation sounds like a scammer to me. Hopefully she's not, but there's some responsibility on her end to make sure she's got her purchases - or discovers that they are missing much sooner than she did. Worst she'll do is pitch a fit and *maybe* report you to the police. I assume you've been keeping receipts... Just keep them handy.
*laugh* I feel like you Dec...
I guess that's true. I should call walmart and tell them I forgot to grab 5 bags of diapers and I'm on my way to pick them up. Think it'd fly?
Wanted to hit T for more cereal and get my CVS runs in today, but we ended up staying at the birthday party we went to for almost 8 hours It was fun, they were good friends of ours.
I meant to order some q's earlier - at an overly awesome price - and now they are gone. *poof* I never finished my order, apparently. I'm so mad at myself.
But, who knows... maybe I saved myself from having unused coupons. I dunno... *right now* it's not much of a consolation...

Sorry you missed out on them, I'd check back tomorrow, maybe another seller will have an awesome price for you..

People can be so cruel....
She just found out that there is a hospital in Wa. that deals with her specific disability and they had a meeting with her (that cost her $3000) and now her treatments will hopefully begin next month if they can work out a payment schedule ($2500 per treatment - every 3 months)..
She works at T for goodness sake, not great medical... So I'm going to get all her info and try and be an advocate for her to get some help with her medical bills... otherwise she may not get them. I figure there has to be something or some charitable organization that could help her.
So what were you using and how many had you used before? PM if necessary.
I also think there is a prob with coupons when you have EXACTLY the item specified/size/number if the cashier enters them in a group ... ie you purchase 6 of an item and they enter 6 widgets (the receipt reads widgets $x.xx and underneath 6 @ $x.xx) then you try to use your 6 coupons or whatever and it says there is only 1 of them there because they are entered together like that. I think we will have to say - please scan each of these items sep of the coupons won't work ... has anyone else found that?
Can someone tell me why the $1/1 Glad trashbag TQ beeps when you are buying 1 pack of Glad trashbags that matches the pic????? It says INF ...
3 Krogers, 2 Publix, Kmart twice, 5 Walgreens and 1 Walmart. I'm tuckered out (didn't start until 5 pm).
Snack fund is now stocked with Ritz cheese grab bags (just for tax), as I bought Qs off ebay that we didn't get $1/2 any Nabisco crackers and Walgreens sale starts tomorrow, but prices turn on tonight.
Hold the presses... 5 LIKE coupons or 5 TOTAL coupons???
Yes I agree - please elaborate?
What would you do?
*laugh* I feel like you Dec...
Thanks for the PM - will answer you tomorrow my daughter keeps having meltdowns - sigh No sleep til Brooklyn ....
TM4D - Thanks for the advice on the fluff - I am making it in the early hours so it can sit in the fridge for several hours for the party at 1pm .. I am going to try your recipie and I just won't eat it. Yours sounds delish! THANKS
I hope that folks have good shopping whatever shopping that may be!!! HUGS HUGS HUGS
About the MFQ ringing up $0 and then when K1'd getting a "coupon limit" message, I reported that when I first told everyone about the new update. I have no clue how they decide and at what point, but I think it may differ per store, even in the same region. I did the same run at 2 store. Same exact Qs and items. Second store had the message, first did not. Maybe each manager can set a limit they now feel comfortable with, idk?
Anyways, I am headed into work, hope y'all have a great night!
We are going "treasue hunting" with the kids... to some mine or something for stones... Don't know... hoping the girls like it
Oh good grief!!!!!! I remember that stupid rule - you could have 40 coupons total and they could not have a total value of more than $100 no matter what --- and that is a couple of years ago so it maybe stricter now!!!!!! I tried to use a few of the pampers coupons there a couple of weeks ago and was told they no longer accept coupons So let us hope that Target does not want to be Walmart - or we have all had it!

Wow - I think I need to move to where you live - you have a much better selection than do we up here!!! We do have a Walmart but they "don't take coupons" I asked for the name of the store manager and apparently they don't have one of those! They haven't had one for months. No Kmart, Krogers, or Publix - and I think I mised the Ritz deal??? Or was that the Rice Krispie treat one I couldn't do because I couldn't find any coupons for them -
Yes I agree - please elaborate?
Ummmmmm - why would it take her 2 weeks to notice she was missing 5 bags of diapers???? You aren't talking lollipops here! I would tell her that she must be mistaken - and if you value her business maybe offer her 1 bag as a "I am sorry you have misplaced your 5 bags - I hope that you can locate them - but you are willing to donate one bag of size 3 to her because she is a valued customer." (Only if you actually have said diapers) If not I would probably say that you are sorry you have checked your inventory and that she did pick them up. I am sorry you are going thru this!!!
WOW - that is nuts!! Did it charge you for the $166 or did it just print that without charging it??? That is just too weird! I have not seen that! I have had coupons beep INF when the item is clearly right there and of course the adjusting down to the price - think Benadryl - but I haven't had what you are describing. Well that is not entirely true - a long time ago a cashier scanned the right barcode and it rang up $2,000 something and actually added $2,XXX to my receipt ... the cashier & I so she voided the coupon and it voided that amount. But that was a while back - and it changed my total --- so no I have not had the same experience.
I don't have the energy to reply to all of your post - just to say I am like your hubby I always give on the off chance they are telling the truth ... I have also gone in and bought dog food for those who say their dogs are starving as well!!!!

Yup....
T registers have gremlins inside.
Some of the problems - when they happen with MQ's - are often due to the wrong bar code being scanned.
Tq issues - who knows. Bad coding, register wonkiness, gremlins... Dunno!!
Wow - great prices on the bedding and such! I need the book case soooo bad here - and a dresser. It's going on my list!!

That is one of the biggest things to deal with in your first few sales. It'll take a little experimentation and you'll eventually get a decent feel for how things will sell. But, also know that some things are dependent upon what time of the month it is (i.e. have people recently been paid, have the recently bought a similar item, etc...) and upon them realizing that you are selling NEW and UNEXPIRED things. Also, sometimes it depends on if they've gone to other sales first and maybe spent some of their cash. Just kind of get a good idea in your head what you are willing to sell and at what price. You'll get it.

Definitely learned that about the pricing. It varied quite a bit even from what was listed here on SD. There were some things I couldn't move....dawn dish soap for example. Wouldn't move at $1, only 1-2 moved @ $.75. Wasn't going to mark it any less than that because we don't have a dishwasher so we'll use it eventually. Was just surprised I guess

Why can we not have mpp's on SD. No google links now? Just curious.
