I haven't been able to use the rest of my candy Qs at T since all the beeping started earlier this week. I'm not counting on it being resolved before they expire (10/31). But I hate to let these go unused, so are there any good deals this week or next? I think one of the drugstores had the individual candy bars B1G1 last week, and I've started to read those threads, but haven't seen anything....did I miss it? Thanks for any help.

The dollar value mq ($1/1 etc) all beeped with the check value screen but the bogo JMS worked as normal today.

btw you can't get a raincheck for a normal shelf price item such as up&up window cleaner. System won't allow it. Frown Found 2 bottles today at the store that has them for 97 cents, all the other stores are $1.99 for the same bottle.

Well, then. You can just meet me at your Target next week and I will take my turn playing with it.

We are going that way to visit the kid and parents. I thought I might stop at your store and pick up some produce for my son. Maybe a muffin for mom. Assuming the coupons are still good - I don't remember when they expire and checking that would require getting off my arse.

And I'm not sure if I am happy or sad. I always forgot about the Krispie Kreme until we were past CR. I swore next time through that I was not going to forget and I was gonna have a doughnut or 12, err I mean 2. I see that is has closed. No doughnuts for me.

Did you know there is now only one in Iowa? In Clive.

Thanks, I think I have some of those Qs. I'll check it out.

They didn't "beep" beep, but the new upgrade must have come with a reading rainbow seminar, because even my (former) Jedis are scanning, checking screen, reading Qs, adjusting Qs as needed, overriding values, etc. I think I only had 2 Qs that didn't get some kind of cashier intervention -- Qs that shouldn't beep are beeping for some unknown reason and Qs that don't beep get scrutinized even more than the beepers....its no fun anymore and it takes FOREVER. That's the only positive part of it, because it takes so long they can't possibly stick with this.

On one particularly dastardly run the cashier said she was supposed to take the Qs first and match them to the items so that when they beeped she'd know I bought the correct item and how much it was for. This was after everything was totaled and loaded back into my cart. Target is really taking the fun right out of shopping.

bblue - thanks for reminding me about the FP 40% at Kohls, I think DD would really like the Hideaway Hollow stuff. Her current fixation is a doll house. FP catalog came in the mail the other day and she has been looking through it in awe and always stops on the doll house and like talks to the page and stuff - it's cute.

The KK's around me also closed. KK expanded all around the country in the early 2000s. but that rapid expansion led to a lot of debt and low revenues in the early years. they ended up declaring bankruptcy and as part of the reorganization plan had to close down many of the newly opened stores. Frown

I used to love going and watching the donuts rolling out on the conveyer belt and then getting a big box of fresly chocolate glazed donuts. Embarrassment come to think of it, it's good they are not around...

i thought we like moaners around here. especially cos the moaning leads to drinking. or is it the other way around? Evil

Quote from smegalicious :
I've tried it both ways ... wait til *everything* is dirty and then do laundry for the entire day (and night... and possibly the next day)... or try and do 2-3 three smaller loads a day... It all sucks regardless. LMAO Comfort

But, here, I'll throw in a whine, too, so you don't have to feel bad about yours. I don't even have a dryer anymore Crying The 20-yo POS in the basement finally gave out early this spring. Thankfully, I was able to line-dry over the summer, but now I'm screwed. Yes, I have a neighbor that still line-dries in the middle of winter, but I'm just not that good. I admit it.

So now I have to drag my ass -- and baskets full of heavy, wet laundry -- to the local laundromat, where I get a whopping 5 mins of drying time for every quarter. Sadwalk
I'm so sorry about your dryer! RIP smeg's dryer. hug
If I don't do at least 2 loads of laundry each day, I fall behind. Every other day is usually 4-6 loads as it is.

The laundry is in the unfinished basement so I put rolling, hanging racks in there. I hang about 50% of our laundry- anything that's a knit cotton that is likely to shrink gets hung.

I'm about 30 pages behind, and no time to catch up right now Frown I did join the secret santa thing (good thing I finally got done with my DD's window seat, or I may have missed the deadline EEK! )

Quote from love2beeamom :
My DH said we need to get everything down and video it so that we can make out own commercials and play for them. Then she will want everything she is getting for ChristmasLMAO
I usually "plant" the idea in my kids' heads. I will look at things online while they are next to me, and show them how "cool" this item is. Works like a charm!

Quote from gt6mk31 :
Cheap Christmas for a 7 year old girl -

Does she like dress up? Go to a Goodwill (whatever) on bag sale, quarter day whatever you area has and do a dress up box. The flashier and gaudier the better. Buy a cheap suitcase to store it in. Decorate a cardboard box to store it. Don't forget the jewelry.

Claire's 5 for $5 or 10 for $10 or whatever they are having these days. Think matching stuff and do little sets.

Are you ok with her playing with make up? Dollar Tree beauty set -- or whatever you can get free with coupons. Raid you stash, you probably have some new stuff.

Home made gift certificates for free/cheap stuff she can redeem with you later.

Does she play with dolls? hit yard sales and used places for cheap newborn baby cloths for her babies.

Get her a kitty. All little girls like kitties and they are abundantly free... to get anyway.laugh out loud

edited to add: maybe you could find a cheap/free old used vanity and paint it up cute and fill it with make up, jewelry, etc. Wrap them all separately and put in the drawers and set on it.
Halloween costumes for a dress-up box are a great idea! Usually at 90%, there are some good deals to be had!

Also, if she likes books, I found a ton of books at Goodwill on Sat, including new Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. They are only $1.25/ea for hardcover, or $.75 for soft cover.

At my T, small appliances was just reset, so this morning I found 2 Brita 6 cup pitchers on an end cap for $4.54/ea, while I was stocking. I had to wait over an hour, watching people browse the clearance end caps in front of me, before I had break, and could go get my (2) $4 MQs in my purse and get them. That was torture! Good thing, no one else picked them up, so with a Diet Coke ($1.49), my total was $2.13 for 2 pitchers & a Diet Coke.

Missed you. Smilie

Was at my store early this morning and they were redoing the whole section where the Vacuum Cleaners are. Will have to check back tomorrow.

Hoping the one last FoodSaver gets another mark down tomorrow. It is lost at this time so guess I need to check late tomorrow night before the markdown shows up?
