I'm a 20 and I kick ass in my jeggings. It doesn't matter what you think about someone else's size- if they're happy with what they wear, that's all that matters. I LOVE my skinny jeans with my Toms- who cares if someone thinks it's not a good look? I love it.
Quoting from deals in this thread to get you back where you belong. hug

We need some of that hotness over here missy! woot

Did you get the frozen food deal with GC at your store?
I wish!! I posted yesterday that all we got was the bag. If we had the freezer deal..oh my we would have purchased another freezer and loaded it up. We could have saved so much $$$

Quote from thismom4deals :
Teehee I love waking up and reading this thread?

Who's shopping today?

Gonna have to skip T. for a couple days until I can get the freezer under control laugh out loud Gonna run to Hy-Vee I think and check some things out from their ad and then take the kiddos to the little 'playground' thing in the mall since well......that's about the only 'free' active thing I can think to do with them. Ugh, can't wait until it's nice enough to go to the parks, splashpad, etc.! It's gonna be awhile.......
Not me, I am working. I work from home on the puter and thus my ability to chat bounce I love my job!

Because they think they are important.

I think you can sign up with another email address. Since they are unlimited, use 3 or 4 just don't use 100. You can also black out your name with a marker.

Me too. But now I have to go check the Hy-Vee thread. And KMart,

KMart is doubling coupons again this week. There is no minimum purchase and no limit on how many coupons you can use. Are you excited yet? -- I can fix that. Coupons up to $0.99. Bastards.

And speaking of KMart. I was in there yesterday to check the Maalox price and hubby was getting oil and a filter. The manager spotted me and came over. She told me she had seen Extreme Couponers last night and asked me if I qualified as one. I told her nope and we really HATE those people. We went on just chatting about it. Told her I had never bought 500 toothbrushes at once and I had less problems with huge amounts if the store special orders it, etc. She said she was amazed and impressed with how little they spent. And that she really should look a little closer at using coupons, just not on that scale. Chatty chat chat. She always been pretty good about coupons. My husband felt the need to tell her about his favorite coupon ever -- Spam Singles.LMAO That one made them free and that was a week that I got a bunch of papers. Too bad I didn't know about buying coupons then!

I do not want to drive to Target but I just can't think of any other way to do the frozen food. I think I will hit deals to see what's new. I think everything I did last time is done. Print some coupons -- as soon as I find out what to print. And then see if Mom wants to go later. Otherwise, I must go Thursday.

Oh, yeah, is the Finish Quantum still on sale? I had a lot of coupons so I didn't print the IP MQs. Thought if they were still available, I'd print them for Mom to use and get her stocked up.

morning all!

Another 3+ mile run completed this morning. Absolutely gorgeous weather this last week and a half. I could do without the oppressive humidity at 7am though.

Someone in deals posted a preview of this weekend's Smartsource. Includes: Huggies Buy baby wipes refill 300ct+ get free baby wipes tub 72ct or less (3/19/11)

Anyone have info on this Q? Pray it is friendly.

I should be taking the Bar Exam right now. After getting down here and situated w/ studying, I discovered that there are MANY differences between Florida law and Michigan Law(I learned in school), so without taking a FL prep course, I would never pass the test. Luckily, my test fees roll over and I can take it in July.

Smart move! nod Take your time and get better-acquainted with those lovely multiple choice Qs. Believe it or not, I actually remembered this and I was going to ask how things were going. I'm relieved to learn you have more time. Smilie

It seems like they 'found' the exact same items and prices that have been posted in Deals.

Yeah, I'll give the poster the benefit if the doubt though. I haven't checked but I assume the info. is posted on various blogs and that's probably their source. My guess is that, despite searching, the poster couldn't find the same info. because he/she probably only searched hot deals. There are a lot of SDers that aren't familiar with the Target thread. I guess it's not easy to find if you don't know where to look or don't explore the various forums. Dontknow

My main concern with threads like that is of a different nature though. Frankly, I'm more concerned that some random asshat will get the brilliant idea to post coupons that are no longer allowed here and cause drama for everyone else. KWIM?

morning! i am present and accounted for.

worked on the deal wiki yesterday but i did not abandon you. does that count for anything?Angel Not
Big Grin

not doing deals around bff anymore. she makes me confuzzled. she wants to do the deals but is always so unprepared, doesn't pay attention, needs so much hand-holding and can't keep her kids in line while we shop. wants me to go w/ her around the store and help her w/ the deals and tell her if something is a good deal or not. in the past i have abandoned my own shopping and just go a different day. always end up doing the same w/ my sil and mil b/c they keep asking me my opinion and always have to look for stuff for them. just cannot focus on my own shopping.

but yesterday i was going for 90% off valentines that i had already checked out at 75% off on sunday when i went for purple dollar spot (that was INF, those sonofaguns!). thought i would grab my stuff and then go off on my own to the target greatland w/ expanded grocery b/c bff never wants to go far from home.

we were already 2 hrs later than originally planned, we were supposed to leave at 11:30, called at 12:30 when i still hadn't heard from her, she hadn't even started printing her q's yet so went to her house and printed a bunch for her and then google chrome crashed and she was running low on ink. and then she had the audacity to ask me why i didn't print the finish coupons for her when we were at the storeRoll Eyes (Sarcastic). she'd told me she thought she had the circular ones clipped and filed! and i'd told her about the target deal last sunday when we were at the supermarket. she had a wk to prepare.

right from the beginning bff caved and started shopping for her 2 dd's. and they were both demanding i help them shop for socks. yeah, nowadays i've been helping all 3 to shop whenever there is girls clothing around. afterwards i am always Insane. they all know i have good taste and can find deals, so if i can find a good deal for them their mother will buy it. one of them will literally pull me around the store to look at stuff and then their mother will debate w/ me if she should buy this that or the other. i escaped from justice last time by taking her 2 ds' w/ me to do my own shopping b/c they were opening the candy and she had to buy it when she has her own store w/ the exact same candy.

so i had both dd's yammering at me cuz i found 3pks of girls c9 socks on clearance for them. i couldn't even tell you how much they were, i was just focusing on getting them the right size, figuring out which of the 2 styles they preferred and how many socks they needed while they both talked to me at the same time.

i'd prefer to do their shopping last after seeing how they've behaved in the store but i know she does it to shut them up and then lets them go off to the toy section which i still think they are too young to do. just couple months ago they got anxious when they couldn't find her and ended up having an employee page her. but it's difficult to tell people what to do w/ their own kids. i don't even let them go off in the library when i take them by myself except to the bathroom. they have to be near me at all times.

anyway after breaking away from her several times to get my stuff (one time she asked me where i'd disappeared to. seriously, i'm not your personal shopper and walk you around the store showing you all the deals.) she was done and wanted to leave but i wanted to check on the bertolli sauce. didn't realize it wasn't on tpc at my store cuz by then i was Wacko even though i'd told her it was supposed to be on tpc and she'd grabbed her 2 jars. after paying i realized they were 2.29 each when it was supposed to be 1.8x. so i asked her and she just bought them b/c w/ the mq and tq it was like bogo for her and she doesn't care so much about price. since she had gotten them, i just got them w/o checking.

but if i'd realized they were not on tpc, i wouldn't have bought them since i was going straight to another target. where they were 1.92 Mad! i even had my little post it strips w/ the deal on the coupons and i didn't double check, sigh! it did cross my mind to return/rebuy but i feel bad they would throw it out.

guess it was a lesson learned that i cannot let other people distract me and i should have gone w/ my first instinct to just do clearance and do deals another time. i know it wasn't much money, but i go shopping w/ her all the time and i can't have helping her do the deals make me all wacko and screw up my own deals.

sorry, i ranted over .74! i guess b/c i know i'm headed into more of the same tomorrow. will be staying over at sil's second home wed-fri which means going to superwalmart every day vomit and hand holding sil and mil through their shopping at hellmart, target, bj's....ugh!!! sil seriously acts just like bff in the store, should i buy this, is it a good price, blah, blah, blah. the difference is sometimes bff doesn't listen to me and then a wk or 2 later says she should have bought it. i tell sil i think its too expensive, she says she doesn't care, she'll pay full price b/c she doesn't have time to shop around and then complains the rest of the time that her dh doesn't have a job and she doesn't have money to spend. and oh yeah, have to be very careful when shopping around mil. she always wants to buy whatever i even look at and always wants to order whatever i order in restaurants. but then it's bad when she doesn't like it!

Whew! Hug2 My goodness the patience of a saint for someone who doesn't seem to give a flying flip on one hand and cares immensely on the other hand.

I finally left it up to my SIL to use the Qs I send her and not fret about it. If she gets the deals great. If not, at least I told her about it.
