Quote from setsail :
laugh out loud and yet Confused so what if someone used coupons last week, or yesterday. It's a different day, and even with their misinterpretation of purchase vs. transaction, it's still a new transaction.

The store nearest me has always been filled with coupon haters, and they train all cashiers to be coupon haters. I tried to use ONE coupon in a transaction, the C9 coupon for a pair of shoes. They had to ask about every red shirt that was in the front lanes before they finally they accepted it but geez. And yes, the clearance price of the mens basketball shoes was well above $5. Frown

And, I purchased a PSP game last night. Didn't realize until I was home that it scanned twice. *sigh* I have to go back to that store, about 40 miles one way, to have it corrected. Mad

I tried to use the C9 coupon tonight on some women's socks and was told socks are not apparel, they are underwear and the coupon is only good for apparel. Target.com agreed that socks are underwear and not apparel. Personally I always thought that underwear and socks were apparel (clothing), but I could be wrong. laugh out loud Not to mention everyone on this forum and all the other forums and all the customers who shop at my stores must be wrong, because the women's socks and men's underwear sections at three of my stores are almost completely cleared out. If socks and underwear aren't apparel why doesn't the coupon beep on men's socks and underwear? Is just women's bras and socks not apparel, while men's are? Not to mention the stupid coupon beeps on all the women's stuff. I even tried showing the team leader the other Target coupon for $2.50 for C9 apparel, and how it specifically excludes socks. My reasoning being if socks were not apparel they would not have to be excluded on the $2.50 coupon found on the Tide.

My DH thinks they probably meant to exclude socks, but probably missed putting the same language on the printed coupon. Which may very well be true, but use that as a reason, instead of trying to say socks aren't apparel.

I have successfully used the C9 coupon at this store and a few other stores before today, so I was surprised to get the grief. If it was a man's item of course the coupon scanned and if it was a women's the cashier just verified I had the item and it was k1'ed. I personally think the cashiers in the St. Charles Missouri area are getting their asses chewed out for coupons or something, because the stores are getting so tough on coupons especially their own, as the cashiers look angry/scared/bothered when any coupon needs a k1.

I was also told by this same store that the only Handbag that the Merona coupon was good for was the one pictured on the coupon. Has anyone been able to buy any Merona bag that this coupon doesn't beep on? I know it beeps on the Hobo bags considered beach bags which the coupon is not coded for, and at another store I bought these little purses that were not Hobo and were priced at $3.24, and the coupon still beeped. Is it beeping on all clearance regardless of price?

I went to GS tonight to do a missed coupon on a Hobo bag from last night. I bought 6 and only 5 coupons were scanned, so I brought an extra coupon to give them. The girl who checked me out last night was at the service desk and she said she was told I shouldn't have been able to use any of the coupons last night, because it was the wrong purse. She had adjusted the coupons down, so no overage, the coupon didn't specify a certain purse so I was Confused confused to what the problem was. She asked a team leader who said I couldn't do the missed coupon, so I returned one of the bags. Why doesn't Target A-either program their coupons right or B-tell the truth on their coupons of what it is really supposed to be for. What is it a bait and switch? Get you in the store to buy a purse and then tell you the coupon is only good for one.

So what is the Merona coupon really good for then, and what wouldn't it beep on.

Maybe hammering this point would be worth something. I think it's the state attorney general who handles issues like that - look up HoratioHoney in the T/Wags threads - prolly could tell you better. But it is highly frustrating that things beep and the T employees are all over the board on what is acceptable or not. And there is obviously a lot of mis-information. It's hard to know what's just being misheard and what is being mis-spread.

i.e. all the info about copied coupons and how they have different numbers - that is obviously not true for the T coupons, and we've got plenty of legitimate company issued pdf coupons to show that not *all* coupons are like that. It just gets ridiculous.

somebody already said 2, so i'm gonna say 6 chalk, b/c there were over a dozen in one store and i had decided to pick up 6 for bff to resell. but then i noticed 2 packs had a cracked one and 1 pack the plastic blister was broken open on the bottom. so then i went back to get different packs and when i was leaving the aisle my cart was so full of napkins, one pack fell on the floor and couple pieces cracked. so then i decided it was just not worth the aggravation and i just bought 2 for bff's daughters b/c i can take care of them until i give it to them.

fyi- those napkin packs are sealed so poorly, one pack broke open in the car. another one popped open in the kitchen this morning, luckily facing up, so i don't have napkins flying everywhere.

Yup. Frown Some days I hate bricks...

DH found a recipe for "pizza" - it's basically like a cheesecake IMO - cream cheese + eggs + cheese + toppings baked in a pan. Sooooo need to stock up.

There's a sale at Kroger this week and if you buy 5 kraft cheeses you are "supposed" to get a $5 oyno - which would be nice, but it doesn't seem to be printing in my area for the cream cheese. GRRR...

Some days you win...

other days - not so much!
