TQs...was totally singled out today and made to put stuff back because "security saw you last week using coupons."

I asked because I saw a toll free number and a 304 number. Didn't know if one was more results oriented than the other.

They MADE you put stuff back today because you used coupons last week? This makes no sense.

I've actually never called corporate, so I can't be of much help there. Start with one number and if you aren't satisfied, call the other Dontknow

I think the new rule is one per transaction, unless you are lucky enough to have a store that doesn't enforce it. How many were you using?
I ended up calling the 800 number and was passed on to a specialist. My issue was not the one per transaction verbiage (although I have NEVER had that enforced at this store before) but the fact that 1) the manager told me he saw me using coupons last week and security told him I was here Dontknow, 2) I did separate transactions at another register and when I told the girl they should be separate she said "why?", and 3) my DH went back to the store and used the same TQs and they didn't say boo. I do not S&G and this was the hobo q, so it was clearanced not TPC. A rule should be consistent not because you remember that I used coupons from last week! Mad

Well, I suppose I could have paid full price for it but they were not going to let me use coupons on the items I bought last week. The whole check out process sucked.

I read that dumb article this morning since it was the front news on Yahoo's page. What a dork laugh out loud

I *think* I'm all packed and ready to go. My suitcase weighs in at 42lbs. Under the 50lb and under just in case the airline's scale sucks laugh out loud

I will need a vacation from this vacation Faint

But you can schedule a pick up 21 days ahead. Just long enough to get me through most of August for Free Pizza Friday!

I'm waiting on a coupon! I noticed nothing attached on the receipt. Did it drop to the bottom? Roll

What if I change my shirt and put on a hat? Then can I try to use another one?

Here's her blog [blogspot.com]

She has tips on how to save money [blogspot.com] buying clothes on ebay.

The purple puff ball jacket is totally awesome and I am soooooo going dumpster diving to find me one.

MAYBE she should buy Coupons off ebay. All her points are invalid.

1. You have to buy a newspaper.
Uh no you don't. Plenty of places you can buy the coupons you want.

2. Clipping coupons takes time.
Not if you don't clip them...

3. The same coupons tend to be offered over and over again.
OK this one is true, but some of them we want over and over

4. You might become a slave to coupons.
WHAT?

5. Getting a newspaper invites lots of additional advertising into your home.
You don't have to get a newspaper

6. Many of the coupons will be for things you neither need nor want.
So don't buy those coupons

7. Coupons can tempt you to spend your grocery dollars on things you shouldn't.
Actually, NO. Instead of buying stuff I see and am TEMPTED to buy I stay disciplined and ONLY buy things I am saving money on. My kid can live on poptarts laugh out loud

8. Shopping takes longer
Nooooo, I look at my coupons, go to those items only and I'm in and out. I don't browse for crap I don't have coupons for.

WORST ARTICLE EVER

I think I would have called corp right then and there. That's absurd.
