You are an obnoxious, arrogant BULLY!

Your subtle yet obvious comments to other people's posts are nothing more than another form of bullying, trying to insinuate they are stupid for asking simple questions or for posting something you think might be worthless chatter.

You're parents must be so proud of you. At first I thought maybe you just had a bad day the first time I seen one of your arrogant posts. I quickly realized that you made a habit of this. I checked your other posts on various threads and there is definitely a pattern on all the threads you follow.

Since I don't follow those other ones, I'll leave it up to them if they want to say anything.

Really though is your self esteem that low that you feel the need to Bully others in cyberspace? I wonder if you're like this in Real Life or just where you wouldn't have to face your victim.

Karma is a beotch...

Go ahead Mod Alert my post.. won't change how people on this thread (and I'm certain on the other threads you follow) feel about you, though I know that won't bother you as you're to narcissistic to care.

MOD's - sorry I just couldn't take it anymore, it's not fair that people are scared to say sh*t to her after she makes them feel bad. I don't know why she continues to get away with it.
Give me a warning or ban me if you must, but I hope you know I talk for many people she has upset and hurt.

Anyone whom has shopped at Target, ESPECIALLY TARGET, more than a month KNOWS to scrutinize their receipt. After I finish the check-out, I plop right on the red bench in front of the register and go over my receipt. Any problems and customer service can go right to the register to retrieve the coupons.

If you don't want to take the extra couple of minutes; go home look over the receipt and then come back and waste 45 minutes at customer service.

Ummm, well, I sort of remembered that my there was a little bit of left over milk macaroni in the fridge that my daughter made the other night (and I so stoically resisted). I caved. I ate it. Embarrassment There wasn't much -- less than a cup.

Hubby seemed to think Clam Chowder and grilled cheese sounded pretty good for supper. So, I may have some cream of chicken soup later. I don't know. I'm really nauseous again. What the hell is the deal -- a head cold with nausea? This is just weird.
I have been feeling this way since Saturday. I know I have a temp but ya know, life doesn't stop because you feel sick. Blech!! I hope you feel better soon. When your feeling miserable, just know I am right there beside ya!

Some of us don't have time to plop. And some of us don't have red benches in our Targets. At "my Target" there's barely room to load my bags into my cart and get out of Dodge as I'm holding up the line. (i do agree with reviewing your receipt at some point.)

It is YOUR resposibility to WATCH the cashier ring up your transaction and watch for pricing errors and to watch coupons being scanned.

The cashiers usually don't miss coupons but the registers at TARGET almost always miss coupons , this is well known ,it is in the news and on many blogs.

$42 over is a HUGE amnount to not notice the second you are paying for your purchases.

You should have some idea of how much you are going to pay (after coupons) before you even get to the register

If my husband is out and about and doing the shopping I tell him to calculate his cost before checking out and then review the receipt right then and there.

It takes more time and costs more gas to "realize" mistake the next day.

Just the other day at Best Buy the cashier made a mistake but they rushed him at the register and out the door and closed the metal doors before he realized he did not review his receipt.
He read his receipt at the car and was overcharged $5
He realized he was partly to blame for paying more than he knew he was supposed to and he also knew he should have looked his receipt over before exiting the store.

This is very important to do especially during the holidays when things are going to be marked down but not always in the system.

Dh has in turn taught me to take pictures of clearance stickers at walgreens because 9 out of 10 times when we get to the register the item rings full price and we can show the cashier exactly what it shows is the current clearance shelf price.

I honestly don't think it was just that one post that triggered that post. I've noticed the same person bullying over and over in this thread as well and have also consoled people that she upset. Earlier in the day yesterday it was something about printable coupons. It's always something.

Yes, it's all OUR responsibility to watch our receipts, but it's not ANYONE'S responsibility on here to make regularly bitchy remarks to our posts. Oh wait, there is one particular gal who knows what country she's from that tends to have taken up that responsibility and it gets really f'in annoying. She is a prime example why some members of the opposite sex end up dating members of the same sex. Wink And you may ban me too! (it won't be the first time Wink )

Had to add this...she's so subtle that it took me hiring Scooby & the Gang and bringing along my sarcasm meter to figure out that the translation of her remarks was "you're stupid and need to look at your receipt. i'm smart and check mine every time". Good thing she's such a cryptic wordsmith that the mods overlook her incessant prattle.

I see snippy comments here, hot deals, walgreens, cvs, publix and countless other threads by more than one person and often same person , but is it necessary to start a public lynching?


Why not contact a mod and ask them to review said persons frequent nastiness, rather than take an entire page to lynch and bash?


If one person makes a nasty comment and one person comments at them then that is one thing but to have extra posts to "agree" is just a waste of time and space.

Take it to pm

This thread is about helping each other to save but also learn the system and how Targets system is often wonky.

Sure CF post was snippy , but the info was right. Many people post snippy comments because someone didn't read the wiki or didn't read 1000 pages or use search.
Sometimes you miss a post or a comment, but to miss a huge dollar amount is another thing

$42 off is a bit excessive to miss right off the bat

If you feel someone is excessively bitchy then contact a mod.

Don't clutter the threads with lectures and "amens"
