I was able to do 2 tq at a time yesterday and Monday but today, coupon witch even argued about using one. I knew getting in line that this cashier was not coupon friendly but there weren't any other lanes. *sigh* I was trying to use 4 so might try to do a missed tq for the other 3.
Two really sucks...
May be i will do in 4's, i really like the gelpacs that the quantum.. i have .75c MQ and really wondering about the TQ since it beeped when i bought one and only gelpac 20 count, and my jedi pushed thro.. I may not be lucky again,... why didn't i buy that gelpac...Mad
I kind of already stocked on the quantum Frown

One of the threads I read last night, someone posted that TRU had given them a print out that showed the extra $40 off ended 2/15. Last posts on that thread show that people today found it remained at the $60 price. Oh well. Didn't NEED it. lol
oops...Never read till the last page... I did buy the last one @my TRU...

I knew this store was VERY picky usually about one like tq per transaction so I shouldn't have tried to push it. I actually bought 20 Finish mq from a clipper service because of the tq and tpc and I want to get them used up. This weekend, I'll go to a more friendly store. Big Grin

Eh, it's ok. These are out of stock around here anyway and I highly doubt they will be in any hurry to replenish stock while it was on sale for that low a price.

Ugh. We got back from a weekend trip and monkey toddler had the same exact thing! He's on day 3 of oral antibiotics and ear drops. Poor kid, first ear infection he's had.

I thought I read that the $40 off ended 2/15. TRU down near me are both out of stock as well. Would have loved to have picked this game up. Frown
She perked up after her nap, but by bedtime, she was super cranky again. I'm hoping tomorrow shows a marked improvement. Although, this particular grandma LOVES to cuddle and spoil and cater to whims, so at least I will have that relief. laugh out loud

Yeah, kids being sick while you're away from home is the pits. All 3 were sick at varying times, and I think they all had influenza. At least that's what the NP surmised at the dr's today. Sucks, but what can you do?

The price tag stating the $19.99 price was still up at the store I went to tonight, and the dates on it were 1/21 - 2/26. So if it still rang up wrong, I would be able to get them to honor the tagged price. If they had it in stock, that is... I'll keep checking back, because now I really want it. Big Grin

Speaking of dentists.. we have appointments for 2 of the kids tomorrow as well. My DS started complaining today of tooth and jaw pain. He says it just started, but I doubt that. He has been so miserable tonight.. Just gave him some advil and he has an appt for 1030. taking my DD too cause she needs a cleaning and needs her crown put on, hoping they can do both and get it over with in one visit.

I am a little worried about the fact that I will be up all night tonight and have the dental appt tomorrow.. IF he weren't in pain, I would cancel. I had no idea when I made the appt that I would get a call tonight telling me I have to come in and work all night Frown
Worst part is that I have been up since 8 am this morning with no nap.. I am heading to work in a few minutes and will be there til 7:30 am, then taking my oldest to school and heading to the dentist.. There aren't enough kcups in the world to make this night easy LMAO

Quote from BeKind2Others :
I'm betting this has been discussed or mentioned, but I had a problem yesterday with my cat food q's beeping. The cashier couldn't get them to go thru. Register kept saying something about exceeding value after she hit k1. I was really lucky that she pushed them thru as store q's. I had 8 and 5 had already worked, so she did 3 store q's for me. I did have a gift card in my order for $15, but did the math later and realized that those last q's would have made the total go negative for the non-gift card merchandise. Is this a new update or has everyone known about this for a while? i.e. overgage q's can't eat into the gc?
Quote from love2beeamom :
Well, I had the same message one day a few weeks ago, but I don't think that was it for me..
When my coupons beeped and gave the message about exceeding, it was early in the coupon stack, and definitely not below my GC amount... plus, after mine beeped (they were halls, and something else), I had other MQ go through just fine Confused
Yesterday, I used almost the same combination of halls coupons as I had previously had difficulty with, and it was beepless.. so, for me, I think it may have just been a fluke..
But, it is target and updates seem to happen all the time, so who knows..
s.
Okay, hitting this topic again.. I am thinking there has definitely been some kind of update.. I hit the wall so to speak tonight.. I watched closely and once my total hit the GC amount I had purchased, the register would not take any more MQ.. Couldn't be pushed through.. Cashier tried several times and I am convinced it wasn't error on her part.. Because of where the total was.. The coupon was scanned, brought up a screen to accept, then asked for coupon amount. Every time she entered the amount, the register beeped "coupon amount exceeded".. I finally told her to forget the last few MQ.. But, the TQ all went through fine after that Confused this is not how things used to work here at all.. Apparantly the registers aren't allowing MQ overage to eat into GC purchases.. don't know about a visa GC though, it may work.

One happy thing today - somehow we had a credit at the peds office and I didn't have to pay the co-pay! I have no idea how that happened. We haven't been there in a couple months, so I cannot fathom how we could have had a credit.
That happened to me before. Sometimes it depends how they bill a visit. For us, it used to be that "well-visits" or shot visits were no co-pay. I think we had gone in for a shot and I paid the co-pay, but after billing ins. it came back as not owing the copay so we ended up with a credit.

Quote from setsail :
I have a dentist appt tomorrow as well. Crown prep. I don't really want to go but I've already rescheduled twice. Embarrassment
hug I hear ya... no fun.

I would reschedule too, but normally it takes FOREVER to get in. It's supposed to be for a cleaning but I imagine I'll get yelled at or something. I have 2 broken teeth now and I'm pretty sure there's a crack down the middle of another. *sigh* My teeth are horrible. Frown There is no way I can do crowns, root canals, yada yada... We'll see. Maybe I'll have them all yanked.

hug I hope DS feels better and can get enough relief to sleep tonight. I hope whatever happens at the dentist is relatively quick and painless!

This has been going on since the last update. You have to have some superfluous merchandise or a visa GC for the overage. T GCs won't do the trick anymore.

That's ok. I KNEW it was a problem and still was all like "what, the what is going on here". It wasn't until much later at home that I realized what I had done. Duh.

This happened to me right before Christmas. Visa GCs do work, just not T ones.

You know what, that's probably it. Its probably from my son's visit where he got shots for school. That tells you how frequently we go to the doctor! laugh out loud That was way back in August!

if you are using b2's or b3's your target gc's won't make it STFC.

Thanks everyone for the help Wink

I am so thankful, I got a little break. Work just called and told me I could stay home for now. They found a bed for the patient I was supposed to be holding overnight.. I am so glad. I was praying hard cause it has been a long time since I have worked all night and I would have been up for almost 30 hours before getting home.. I am gonna hop in the bed soon and get a nap incase they do call me in later Smilie

My DH still isn't home. He took my DD to a concert tonight.. She asked me last week about going to this concert. Said she wanted to go more than anything in the world laugh out loud I told her she wasn't going.. well, lo and behold she calls me Monday and tells me she won front row tickets and VIP passes to meet the band. She was so excited, I didn't have the heart not to let her go.. But, the concert was in downtown Atlanta, and I had no desire to go.. So, she and daddy had a date night. He didn't want to go either, but went for her. He was funny when he called and told me how loud it was and all about her meeting the band and getting signatures.. He said he felt really old there tonight, not his style of music laugh out loud
