Oh, and Ank, the hobo purses that I personally think are ugly are 2.50. If your cashier K1s the TQ, then that's .50 overage each purse. Not much, but every little bit helps!
I'm sure she would! Thanks for the reminder. I saw I had the mq's for them when I was trying to do some more coupon reorganizing. Yay!! Now to hunt down the Tmpp...

I think the hobo's are ugly too, but that would be good if there's still some left. I am going to try that and the c9 - Pray my k1 champs are working!

Comfort So sorry about your little sickie! It's so hard when they are sick and no real apparent reason. I hope it's just some little bug she'll quickly get over.

Nikayla - So sorry about your loss and about having to miss the funeral. Comfort

I love lime tostitos... I'm also the only one who eats guac here. S'ok with me! This is making me hungry though.

I haven't had issue with weird auto deducting. I'm just wondering if these folks are giving their tq's first, then mq's - or what. Or - maybe there are different kinds of updates being configured in different places. *shrug* The whole thing is annoying.

I'm trying to figure out if there's any good overage deals right now. Seems like a stinky week. Freebies are nice, but when you are trying to stretch some cash - overage is nicer. I may try a couple c9 things. I haven't been shopping for several days - and it is weird. We are out of bread for the toddler's sandwiches, lettuce for DH/DD, and could use some meats. Ugh. I have to make a meal on Thursday. I think I need to sit DH down and have a chat with him. I just can't seem to make the grocery budget stretch as far as it used to, and now with the whole Atkins thing and updates - I'm stressing out like crazy. I soooo don't want to be all stressed out over meals, so we either need to change the budget or the diet!

Otherwise, I had a decent day here. We went to a friends house and the kids played and had fun. Sat and talked and basically just enjoyed myself. I need to make that more of a regular thing. I tend to be very hermitish. I meant to go to the library today after visiting and DD's guitar lesson, but the toddler fell asleep in the car so we just came home afterward. I think we'll do library, T run, and a few other minor errands tomorrow morning - then church in the eve (yay - no cooking for me).

Why do the days seem to melt together and then fly by??
Are you having fun ?

Oh a little deal
On tpc for 4.94

$2 off clean and clear MQ
$3 off clean and clear TQ

We've done the seperate meals special food things also makes mealtime hard preparing all different things for everone and definately hard on the budget.

Best bet may be clearance and Q's if I come up with anything elselook around I'll let you know.

Quote from Nikayla :
My Uncle did leave a note to my aunt, 8 words, "I'm sorry, I'll never make you cry again.". So freaking super sad! I still can't believe it and am so sad we didn't get to go to the funeral. I have to think my lilman getting so sick was for a reason like maybe we would have had car problems or worse.
It was his third day on a new type of depression meds. If you have a loved on these kind of meds, especially if they switch kinds, please keep family aware and check on them often. We are far away but everyone said he showed no signs that anything was wrong at all. My aunt told her daughter that their argument wasn't even a big deal at all, she wasn't that upset and doesn't know why he thought she was. Dontknow
My baby brother killed himself in March so I can really empathize with the "it came out of nowhere" part. We didn't get a note or anything but it was so uncharacteristic for him to do anything selfish that the pain had to be intense. He was having problems getting meds though and was trying several different combos at the time of his death so who knows if any of that is to blame. It sucks being the ones left behind Comfort

I need to do more of this, too. I am a horrible hermit. I mean, I shop and I take children here and there but I don't do anything for myself.

Quote from .teri. :
Didn't get to come home today. DS had yet another seizure and slept most of the day. Woke up this afternoon, ate everything but the fork on his dinner tray, took some walks and elevator rides, went for another CT scan, everything looks fine. They are still thinking the seizures are a result of having brain surgery (makes sense). The plan now is to either send him to inpatient rehab for his right side, or have home based PT. We're so close to getting out of there. Tonight, I'm home and his dad is staying. I really am grateful to be able to crawl into my own bed tonight Smilie
Hope today is the day - sorry about the setbacks hug

G'morning.

Gearing up for a T run and library visit. I think that will be my "plan" for the day - anything more planned will probably overwhelm me. If I get more done - yay. If not, s'ok. I done good.

I hope there's some marked down chicken at T. Weds/Thurs seems to be the best days for that here. I feel like I have a very boring list:

pepperidge farms deli flats
chicken
lettuce
eggs
*look for clearance merona/c9

I can so relate to the hermit tendency!! I am constantly determining to make an effort to spend time with friends and their kids, but do I follow through?? Nooooo... shake head However ... this Saturday, my sisters are watching the kids, and hubby and I are going to Hershey Park with a couple from our church. I'm so looking forward to that. First, the tickets were free. Second, it'll be time spent as an adult, with adults. Human again, I'll be human again... Big Grin

Isn't it kind of interesting that we all have common threads like this? We're all just a bunch of SD'in misfits. Wink

And Nikayla, I am so glad your little one is feeling better. It is so not fun when you have to go through that. I am so thankful that so far, Eva's fever hasn't spiked that high. Its consistently hovering around 101, today its a degree lower. She's still super cranky, though, so I'm pretty sure something is still hurting her. But Caillou seems to hold her interest for a decent amount of time, which means mommy can have a break. nod I swore I'd never use the TV as a babysitter, but some days, your sanity is more important than all those rules you've made for yourself.

Off to enjoy my coffee and read the threads. My Keurig's hot, if anyone wants a cup! The Emeril Big Easy Bold is especially yummy.

Ank, are your stores not doing the Colgate/Schick deal? That's a fairly decent one.

Oh, and did everyone see the theory as to why gift card deals are deducting Qs weirdly? Made sense to me...

laugh out loud Thanks for reminding me to turn mine ON and make a cup. I need to get that thing set to auto on in the morning....my fave is a toss-up between the Coffee People Donut Shop and Gloria Jean's butter toffeeyummy And with my blueberry cheesecake Scentsy going it smells like I baked something yummy to go with the coffee this morningTeehee - except I didn't have to do any work.

Quick story: yesterday there were tons and tons of Merona bags 75% off so I gave my bff some coupons so she could get some too.....she mildly coupons so she does know what she's doing but I warned her about the beeping, etc. and off she went. So, she calls me later and tells me that her cashier was super-nice but that there were all sorts of problems and when I asked her what the problems were she told me that the lady who was checking her out (mind you this is a manager at this point) wanted to ring all of the bags/coupons separately because of the one per tranny verbiage. BUT the manager could not figure out why it was not charging her tax Huh Well, LOL it wasn't charging her tax because the TARGET COUPON was taking the full amount off of course and at least in our state you don't pay any tax on pre-coupon price if it is a store coupon - only for MQ's. I just had to chuckle.....the cashier/manager was determined that she had to charge her *something* for those bagsLMAO But really, you're in retail and you don't know your state's tax laws?? Oh wait, half of them don't know their own store's rules so I guess my expectations are too high!

Is this thread going wacky? I swore I saw someone post UPCs for Olay here and now the post is gone. I gave mine away before I realized there was a rebate but have the T receipt for 037120326, 037120328, 037121712. Can anyone help?

Glad to hear your little one is feeling a little bit better. Sounds like a "mommy snuggle" kind of day.

And if you have some extra coffee - I'll join ya!!! I'm too lazy to make another pot.

I expanded my list a *little* bit to add the colgate.

The toothpaste was 2.99 when I looked last week - so with 1.00 mq + 1.00 tq, I pay 4.69 oop and get back a $5 gc - not a huge mm by itself. I am going to try to use a tiny bit of overage from 2 Merona and 2 C9 (assuming there's any of that stuff. I also found 2x .75 mq's for the toothbrushes, so I'm going to try to use those too. It's a lot more of the tq's than I like to use at once, but I'm hoping since some are for tb & some for tp - that will work. I'm also hoping for one of my guy jedi's cuz they don't freak out at beeping q's (i.e. the merona/c9).

I can't seem to find any schick q's. I must have either used 'em or passed them on somehow. Confused And I know (almost) all of my q's are organized. (I have maybe 15 miscellaneous individual I haven't organized yet...) Anyway, *if* I can find any - I may do that at some point.

I'm keeping my run this afternoon small since I haven't been in a few days and ppl are complaining about funky deductions. I don't want to end up with any wackiness and having to pay more than I have on hand or take things off my order!! I also just don't need the stress!!

I am also hoping for some super cheap chicken. I have 2 of the 2.00 IPs for gold n plump.

It would be awesome if T would put out some chicken, beef, and produce tq's!! Oy... you'd think that if they'd want to promote their grocery section that they would focus on doing that now. *shrug*

Funny how I wake up tired... Baby was super active last night, and then quiet this morning. Now she's starting up again. She keeps poking her butt out and pressing her legs on my ribs or side. My diaphragm hurts!! She's such a stinker! It's pretty funny to watch her move and wiggle. I think there have been a few times that I could almost see her little foot print. It's so neat.

We are all getting so excited. It's so neat. I can't wait!!

I don't know what to think of the funky deductions. It'd be interesting to find out EXACTLY what they got, what coupons were used, and what order they were handed over. *shrug*

I also haven't paid attention to see if it's happening in only 1 or 2 places, or spread out. I'm too lazy to look right now.
