Holy shit, I met a local couponer (the one I posted in deals that bought 150 jeans in 2 trans) and she just called me about 5 mins ago to tell me she hit every.single.target around here and got MORE jeans, all the floss, all the ibuprofen...basically anything that was free. She used over 400 coupons at 3 stores EEK!

I'm ALL about getting my share...but really? Where the fark do you keep that much shit?
Sorry to say this, but she is ruining your stores Godzilla style. Did she ever consider that YOU might want a few of the free/cheap deals as well?

What is her source for 150+ jean TQs? I mean she couldn't possibly have access to 75+ computers OR the box?

I'm *this close* to calling bolshevik on your post...I find it hard to believe that between 2 T's that they would have 75 jeans each and that any cashier would allow 75 like coupons in a transaction...furthermore, who gives a stranger they just met their phone #?!

I'm pretty sure she makes copies of her TQs. And, yes, there were that many jeans. I would say a full 4 racks full of 75% jeans at each store.

Also, we've ran into each other a few times during various couponing trips. And I'm not one of those people that gives a crap about privacy, let alone a phone number.

WTF is bolshevik?

Ohh ok! You about gave me a heart attack! Last time we had Kaiser, so we just paid the co pay ($250) and never saw a bill. This time its more complicated (lovely small hospitals and their insurance Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)) and I have the co pay and 20% up to $3000 a person (baby is separate entity as far as this insurance's rules from the moment of birth). So We are saving $6000 from taxes to pay for that. I was freaking thinking there were loopholes and it would somehow be more expensive!

Yeah, we paid the $250 and never saw a bill either. On the BCBS website you can look up and see recent claims against your policy (we kind of found it by accident) that's the only way I knew what was paid out for the delivery.

Didn't mean to scare you. hug Wouldn't want to scare that baby out of your early! laugh out loud

Yep, been there for a while now. The one seller has made a little mint off them, however, it appears she is actually printing and mailing them, or so auction says. You can't list printable coupons on there anymore, like the link to a file.

hug Its ok, $ one of the things that always stresses me out, even though we do fine and have no debt (besides the new van, house and my student loans), I still stress over it. Dontknow Its kinda funny bc my DH is the complete opposite of me. NEVER worries about $ and is always calm regarding finances. We make a good team together!

laugh out loud Yes lets keep this little miss in me for the next 8 weeks please. I want her as "done" as possible! laugh out loud

Yes it's covered my insurance and so much easier on them than you. Dh had it about 10 years ago when the docs told me to not have any more babies. He was in and out in 15 minutes. A few ice packs and back patrolling the streets the next day.

And it's reversible, if ever needed.
Thanks for the info. I figured it was, but hadn't actually checked. I've got a mirena (which I heart btw), but I don't know that I completely trust it (not for any good reason) and we want to stay done.

Quote from mama2cole :
Well hot snot... posts by bblue two days in a row. Roll

Yes, most of it is covered by insurance. I'm not sure what the copay is and frankly, I don't care. I think it's ridiculous that they won't pay 100% and then give me a T GC for the trouble. I can guarantee you all of that is cheaper than them paying out another 36k for a c-section, which is what was paid out for DD.
Ain't that the truth! Although (for me) the most difficult part will have been me convincing him to have it done. I think the conversation that did it was the one where I said, "can you imagine daycare costs for another baby? And saving for college for another one?" Coverlaugh

kallison doesn't have any reason to go russian revolution.

i've been to 4 stores and there are tons of those skinny jeans. not hard to believe there are at least 75 prs in one store. even 2-3 times that amt of various clearance jeans. of course i haven't bought one pair yet even though they would be absolutely free, not even tax. i'm sure that's why there are so many left at 50 and 75% off.

and i wouldn't be surprised if she were xeroxing them. cheaper than buying ink or toner and a common newbie move. they get such a rush it overrides their usual caution. (in deals for some weird reason they are now being overly cautious b/c the coupon is no longer available to print. more newbie confusion about q's.) they don't understand the consequences. last summer my expanded target was limiting tq's which included the produce and bread tq to one per transaction. you know it was b/c somebody abused the tq's. made it not really worth the effort when you still have to go to the supermarket.

I hope you gave her an earfull about respect for other couponers and responsibility. Jeez, I haven't seen more than 5-10 pairs of jeans at various stores and we even stopped over the weekend while we were out of town.

Wave Facepalm Day did not start off well with the laundry drain clogging yet AGAIN. DH went to Menards and got the little pipe snake thing to attach to the drill and luckily it now seems to be unclogged. Now just hoping it stays that way. Ugh, I am just paranoid to do laundry unless dh is here to help if it clogs because it makes a dang huge mess when that utility sink backs up Mad Crossing my fingers....

What could be causing this to happen repeatedly? I mean, we've lived here 5 yrs. in Nov. and never up problem up until the last couple months. Scratchhead
