No beeps here for the Oral B Toothbrushes.
Thanks! I picked up one of the 12.99 rechargeable ones yesterday but put it back cause I thought the barcode started with a 0 and would beep.. Guess I will grab a few on my next tripSmilie

My DH made it home with the TGIF.. But, he couldn't stand the thought of his total being so low, so he added a coke.. Paid 1.49 for one 20 oz cokeEEK! I told him he could have atleast gotten a 12 pack for 3.00.Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

So I ordered coupons from theqhunter and I am not happy.

There were no limits imposed so I ordered away. I didn't take them all, probably not even half of what she has. They aren't *hot* from what I can see on her site. I PAID for priority shipping.

Today I receive them. Inside this massive priority envie is a small envie with 40 coupons. Then she wrote on it that she sent 40, charged me for them, but didn't say why. Gave me a store credit for the remaining. (like almost 20.00 worth in credit)

Now, what if I didn't want store credit? I'd rather have the damn coupons and at minimum, a freaking email telling me I can't have all that I ordered.

Oh, and the stove top b4g1 (it's an 02) played nice with bogo Jello. I don't think they would taste yummy mixed together any other way.

anyone feel like eating 3 quarts, and 2 pints of soft serve and a couple of pints of soft sorbet with me? it might just make the mean ones here sweeter... LMAO
or we could have a pea fight tossing bags of frozen peas at each other? how about a skating party with bags of frozen shredded cheese? no takers? yeah... so much for having things stocked.




oh sweetie! hug
do you usually get this kind of pain?
what makes you think it is kidney related? where upper right side? and what kind of pain?

hug
That totally stinks about the freezer. If I was nearby, I would help you eat that ice cream/sorbet, etc... ya know... I'll take one for the team... Wink Do you have neighbors that would help you store stuff? If they are like mine, they have empty freezers. *laugh*

Well, I am assuming it's kidney pain because I've had aching right flank pain off and on for a few months now and it's suddenly gotten sharp - like a rod through my side. If you put your hands on your hips in back with fingertips down at the bone, the pain is up near the heel of my palm. I had blood in my urine at my 6 week post partum check up - they cultured for an infection and nothing showed as far as an infection. I didn't pursue anything after that. I'm stubborn that way. Frown And, of course, now it's getting worse. I don't have my gall bladder or appendix, so kidney is the next likely suspect. I've had kidney stones, but I can't quite recall if this is how I felt leading up to my big attack or not (cuz I would've ignored it then too until it was bad.)

I so don't want to be sick! I need to go shopping!

and one more thing..

has anyone used one of those Roaster pans for a turkey? Looks kinda like a big crock pot. Does it work as nicely as baking the turkey?

I feel fine. Was a little nauseated today. Go back to the dr. tomorrow.

green - sorry about the freezer. I just picked up a great deal on one this weekend on CL. SO far, so good.. and it is so roomy.. I can't get over how much I have put in there already.

My DH was out tonight at church and I asked him to stop by target and check the TGI meals. I expected it to be empty and I am sure he was hoping it was so he wouldn't have to use a coupon Teehee Anyway, my DD just called and said they were restocked, so they were gonna do a very small transaction. I am praying my DH isn't given a hard time about "one per transaction" or anything cause he won't put it back.. he will pay whatever they say. He thinks it is embarassing.. If he actually pays for those darn things, I will be rather aggravated!
DD did tell me that there are probably enough TGI left to do one or two more transactions, so I think I will hit target in the morning on my way to work.

Remind me.. those oral b coupons are beepers right??
thank you sweetie. hug it's not a standalone freezer. it's attached to the fridge. so, i guess the whole fridge/freezer thing is going to have to be replaced. Frown
i followed slowtech's advice made sure vents at back were not blocked by food. they weren't. but i moved em some more. checked on ice cream that's further back in freezer. that's soft too. so it's not just the things out front.
ah well, we have to let go of the old to bring in the new right? now here's hoping the replacement is in before things go bad. cos i think i'll be bawling like a baby if after all this effort of coupons and savings i lose hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars in organic food.

oral b beepers? i think you're confusing them with reach... is that what you meant? reach beeps... the upc on reach floss starts with 01837 and so the q is 5 01837 and more.... but T registers don't like qs that have a zero as their first manu code digit. genius those programmers are.

I would be hopping mad... I would very much respect an email saying "sorry, we over sold" or even "sorry, there's a limit we forgot to post" - but to take the $$ then not deliver or REFUND it??? Yikes. Did you email her at all?

nah neigbors wouldn't help. they'd probably eat it all. laugh out loud

ank, i'm a lot like you when it comes to doc's appointments. but kidney pain, and blood in urine are generally a sign of a kidney infection. sometimes when one gets a uti and it is untreated, it turns into a bladder infection and then from there a kidney infection. you don't want to play games with that cos it can damage the kidneys, but also cos lots of secondary problems short term and long term.
i recommend going to a walk-in clinic tomorrow itself. or call your primary care physician or your obgyn tomorrow am.

also, do you guys have a trader joes near you? they have unsweetened, no additives added, 100% cranberry juice. it's 3.99 for a bottle. one bottle goes a long way cos it is concentrated. pour about 2 ozs in an 8oz glass, top off with water or sparkling water (my preference) and drink. drink that concoction every hour or so for a few days. makes a big difference even with UTIs. cranberry juice has a compound that alters the cell structure of bacteria so they can't attach to the cell wall in your bladder or UT or kidney. destroys the infection.
if no TJ's look for pure unsweetened cranberry juice at grocery store. you don't want the ones with apple juice blah blah added. you want the pure ultra-tart stuff. acquired taste but you get used to it.

and also, cut back on sugar and salt. puts more pressure on your kidneys.

hug
sending prayers out for you tonight.

p.s. try a hot water bag maybe? might help the pain....

Well, the weird thing is that you would've thought the infection would show up when they did the culture - they did the quick test and it was negative, so they sent it to a lab for the culture and it still came back negative. I'm thinking maybe a stone again or something. Either way, I'm definitely calling to see if I can get an appt. tomorrow. Not sure where the walk in clinics are around here - surely the doc office would know if they can't fit me in, right?

All I know is that it hurts. Frown

We only ever get the 75 cent mq. If I have those, I'll mail them to you.

We didn't get the $1/1 Nabisco this week. Ours is $1/2. Stinkers. Frown


Iagree And about the coupons. I know I gripe about this a lot but it is the #1 reason I don't shop at the commissary much. The cashiers here will not scan a single thing until you hand over coupons, then they match them up to the items on the belt. PITA and it's not like they are any cheaper on much so why go out of my way to deal with that?



LOL that it's the manufacturer's fault, because them and their vcn have taken over Target's registers.

I agree about the scams. I feel the same way, now, but long ago I always believed them. Then I saw a news story when we lived in WA State. A TV crew followed one of the guys standing on a corner begging for money. Long story short, it was a scam.

Recently, I was going into Giant and saw a lady frantically searching in her purse. When
I got out of the car, she got out, said she couldn't find her debit card and asked me if she could have $5 to buy milk. Being a good Target person, I gave her a $5 gift card and told her that milk was on sale at T 2/$5, which was conveniently just behind this grocery store. Don't know if it was true but even if it wasn't, not much she could do except use that at Target.


Eek! Do you have a freezer thermometer that you could leave in there to check the temp. or is is possible someone left the door open on accident and it got shut hours later? That's happened here with the fridge that is in the garage.
Yeah, I've heard/read lots of stories about how much people can make just by panhandling. When I lived overseas, it was a huge racket, with gangs of gypsies sending their kids through the metro system, begging. I hate to be cynical, but I don't trust most sob stories.

Men are so much alike. But kudos to your husband for even using the coupons! I think mine would draw the line at that. laugh out loud He puts up with a whole lot, but when its checkout time, he disappears.

Speaking of husbands, mine was super nice tonight. He got home a little early, so he told me to go squeeze in a quick T run before dinner and church. I heart him. Big Grin

And Oral B does not beep. I think the $10 coupons used to require supervisor approval, but they don't any longer. At least none have that I have used.

Suave TQ - first one went through beep-free, rest beeped.

and yeah, I would call the doc first thing and they should be able to tell you if they can work you in.

Nice of your DH to let you shop.

Mine normally disappears at checkout too.. Target is not super close for us.. about 15-17 miles each way, so I hate to make a trip for nothing.. But, he was going to Bible study anyway, and our church is right beside there. I asked him earlier if he would do me a favor and he agree, but then I told him what it was.. He reluctantly agreed.

Thanks for all the replies about the oral b.. I must have confused it with reach maybe..
And the 10.00 coupons fly through now with no supervisor intervention.. or atleast here they did.

Now, what if I didn't want store credit? I'd rather have the damn coupons and at minimum, a freaking email telling me I can't have all that I ordered.
I also had a "not happy" q ordering experience (kitty klippers). Bought qs on the bay Nov 3. Paid within 5 minutes. Got a notice from eBay a week later saying she wanted to cancel, bc she made a mistake on inventory. I let it ride, thinking she'd make it right. I get a notice from ebay saying something like I need to act, or I'll get hit w/ a "failure to pay." I was pissed - made no sense, I had paid immediately. So I cancel, under the condition that I can leave feedback for her. She must've got that - bc I get another notice she's sending qs, to pay - which again I did immediately.
I FINALLY get the da** coupons yesterday, w/ a nasty note from her saying to cancel in the future when she says cancel, bc the bay has "glitches" & it's not her fault. So it went from inventory mistake to the bay's fault.Confused Hmmmm. During this long wait, I get an email from her (not happy about that) that someone has given her 1 star on 15 transactions (or something like that), & wanting us all to help her out.OMG Crazy Rofl2
I guess I say all this to ask a question. I want to leave negative feedback on her. But how do I do this without her retaliating & leaving negative feedback on me, just bc I left it on her?
