I think there is a facebook app to see who accesses your profile. Not sure about Twitter though. Never even been to their site.

Love this! DS always tells me he "doesn't wanna go with mommy with coupons laugh out loud Hey! I don't have a dog! Hide

I found these too! I also found mohawk rugs for $3.74 (75% off) but TQ beeped. Pushed through! Perfect timing as I just threw out my last kitchen rugs.

I have faxed several receipts before and never had a problem and believe me, I didn't want to either but every time I can't find a GC, even a $5 one, I call and get it canceled and reissued. Usually I have put it in a pocket instead of my purse and almost always find it even before the replacement arrives Coverlaugh

Mine too! Who wants gift bags? Evil

Ugh! I finally found the clean linen S&S for $6.49 but only one store; everywhere else they are all $7.99. Plus, I had a bunch of glade items in my order yesterday and for some reason, the $3MQ attached to items that were $2.xx and they autoed down. Sucks.

Whee Yahoo! DH just asked me what I want for graduation today and I told him an ipad! Woohoo!

So I am dying to know. Are you going to be a jedi or nazi? Big Grin

I think this show sounds terrible. Have any of you seen Big Love, the show on HBO about polygamy? It's fictional but from what I've heard, the story lines are accurate. I enjoyed the show a lot!


LOL. Although some people treat dogs as their babies. There is a Insane on my street who dresses her maltese in a pink turtleneck sweater and paints its nails hot pink.

OK. Now I have read the Kohls thread but I am utterly lost as to how I shop. I have the $5 off coupons. You can only use 1 per transaction, right? And one can be combined with a % off? Anything else that can stack in store? Has anyone seen deals on 4T boys clothes? I am desperate need of warm clothes for DS and it doesn't look like T is going to put out a $5/$30 Q anytime soon.

So today is my official graduation. I am not walking in the ceremony, but I have my diploma. It really feels good but I have had NO luck finding a job remotely legal in nature. We are hoping DH gets an offer soon for a job in Tampa so we can get the hell out of Michigan before the snow starts piling up! Pray
Yes the $5.00 can be used with the % off (friends and family) if you don;t have it let them know ,you know, they have postcard like shopping passes at the register ,they are multi time use,.

They will take the q for under $5.00 also, but Q states 1 per customer , per transaction. Good Luck.


Congratulations on your graduation.
All that work and your not walking ????
I would like a gift bag, please.

I need to find out if I can pay my loans off with a credit card. Visa GC, that is. Roll

I would LOVE to move to Jax. To me, it has everything. Close to my family, beach, river etc. Plus SuperTargets! Whee

That's a great grad. present gator!! Hmmmmm Scratchhead Must. Find. *Something* to graduate from. I graduated to Mega Kohls Shopper this week, maybe that'll convince dh to get me an iPad Stick Out Tongue

Got a Biggest Loser scale today...orig. $59.99, got it for $11.xx in the end. There was a sale sign up but it was still ringing up $59.99 so they honored the sale price on the sign...minus all the q's woot Been wanting a new scale!

Quote from gt6mk31 :
So, the unless I got something in the mail, and I didn't. The only coupons for me in this area would be the $5/5 from eJunkie, correct? How do you get them in the mail? Kohl's charge? If that's the case, I am sol. We don't do credit cards. Or debt for that matter.

*snip*
Dontknow

I have no clue - it just showed up in my mailbox one day! I don't regularly get stuff from them and don't have a Kohls charge. We are done doing credit/debt too. Though I am HIGHLY considering getting their card because of the discounts. I have family members who have Kohls cards so right now I can usually get one of them to 'pay' for me and I pay them back but it is kind of a pain. IMHO I think theirs is worth it - I am *extremely* disciplined when I put my mind to something, just the kind of person I am....I took over our finances 6 mos. or so ago and they are now drastically different Teehee It's DH I have to worry about - not because he'll just go out and spend a bunch of money but because he is just Crazy and kind of apathetic about stuff.

Even with the $5/5 from eJunkie and the 15% F&F coupon you can get some great deals. Plus a lot of stuff was still 'take an additional 10% off' when I went today....so I plan to keep doing that and just keep a lookout for other q's like the $10 ones. We got more $10 ones off of eBay beyond the ones we got in the mail.

I would flip if DH went out and frivolously spent money. He is pretty good about it, although I don't think he has an idea about budgeting and paying bills. I think he thinks I just wave my wand and poof! there is money in our account and bills are paid. shake head Within the last year, I have become extremely frugal (*ahem cheap*) with really no reason why (meaning our financial situation has remained the same). I think I am already starting to feel the pressure of saving for retirement. And, I haven't even started working Teehee DH has to constantly remind me that it is absolutely necessary to treat yourself every once in a while.

That's just good this weekend, isn't it? It's very, very rare that I shop on a weekend. For one thing, hubby is usually home and for another I can't stand all the people on the weekends.

I know at one time my son was looking into it and found that there were some programs/jobs that repaid law school debt. It was government employment but after XX amount of time the debt was wiped out. I have no information, but it might be worth searching around.

nod They were on one of the morning news shows either this morning or yesterday AM, can't remember......and the person interviewing them was making a point that polygamy was illegal. And I just kept going Scratchchin if it's illegal how in the heck do they get away with doing a TV show flaunting this LMAO Am I losing my mind Confused
Polygamy is illegal. What they are doing to get around this is only "legally" marrying the first wife and then having "private commitment" ceremonies with the others. These usually occur in their "church", and I am using that word loosely! So legally they are only married to the first wife and not subject to the polygamy issue. Moral issues are a different debate.

It took me flipping to get our stuff under control. Math, numbers, and finances just aren't my dh's thing....but you think at sooooome point you would maybe admit that it wasn't your strong point Scratchchin shake head He didn't. So, when the money ran out month after month, he'd continually tell me that we had enough for "z" when I would ask him but we did not and he'd charge "z" or the bills or whatever. I'm not one to just put my foot down to my dh but in this case I had to....because he still did not want to give up 'control' of the finances. Now that he sees that everything is fine and that we actually *have* more of what we want and have paid off a ton of stuff just with better managing and budgeting and reallocating he loves that I do it -- saves him time too.

nod

But they seem to have 15% off quite a bit and always are having similar sale prices + the $5 off's are available pretty much anytime so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I know what ya mean about the weekends - I hate shopping on the weekends too BUT the stores are busier, etc. so they don't notice you going through the line a million times as easily Evil
