I agree....but I think for P&G that's how they want ppl to view their brand so that's the image they strive to project IMO. I know a lot of ppl who buy their stuff seemingly because it is the creme de la creme so-to-speak Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) TP is definitely not a status symbol for me LMAO
laugh out loud I think differently than the masses I suppose. You'd think they would "go green" and cut down on all the waste. I bet they could easily use 1/2 to 1/3 of the paper they use if they would consolidate the coupons more.

The other funny thing is that I don't think their "quality" is that much better than everyone else now. I mean, there used to be a day that you could probably say that they were better than most brands out there, but that's just not so now. And once you get going on the whole "green" issue, there are companies that do much better - and folks are willing to pay for that kind of stuff.

Of course, I should probably state that I'm in a love-hate relationship with P&G. Especially since they were one of the biggest reasons Kroger quit allowing electronic q and paper Q stacking - which is kind of annoying.

Mavis is snuggling in my lap. We got up late today (7:30) and she's now rubbing her eyes and yawning. (so am I... lol)

I think I smell my coffee... must be done brewing! Whee

Good evening meanies. Smilie

I feel so lost here.

Been really tired lately. Not sure if it's my meds or something else going on but I'm ready for it to stop. My house is a mess and I have no desier to even begin to touch it. I need a maid.

Today is my 10 year wedding anniversary. Shoulda done something nice but didn't. DH was nice and cooked dinner. I guess the 500 bucks he got to spend at Gamestop the other day was his gift. :
Good Morning. I am always lost! Happy Anniversary. If we lived closer I would come help ya out hug

When I buy a book I read the ending to see if it looks interesting. If it does and I buy it I forget the ending after I start reading.

I am done with T for a while. Had a very bad run yesterday. Questioned everything and counted items and coupons. Said he couldn't take some of them. Don't remember the reasoning but they were legit. I finally ended up telling him to just void the transaction.

Most of the cashiers think I am trying to rip Target off and I am such an angel. Eyelash

Do you guys just get fed up and tire of the constant battle??
I said the same thing the other day. I am done. Then DH went the other day and did good.
But I am done for a few weeks.

Quote from ank220 :
It seems to go in cycles here... Battles, then good times, then battles again. During the battles, I get squashed a few times and then decide to avoid T for a while. Sometimes I'll go to one that is far away if I really need a Target fix - and for some reason it tends to be smooth sailing when I do... which kind of re-energizes me.

But yes - I get tired when there are battles. Sometimes even over the little ones. But... get back up and on the horse again. Smilie :
I will fight for your honor..or something like that. hug

Neti Pot People -- did you see .
I did this a few months back and it came super fast. It looks pretty sitting in it's box. I am just glad we have not needed to use it.

Can you deliver a message to Ms. Mavis for me? CAKE

Quote from tn_native :
Yawn morning

for the abandon cart run. It seems like you'd know your Target well by now (and all its employees). You need a steady jedi

My really one bad bug I avoided Target like the plague (I have Publix that I can use TQs at) so it wasn't that difficult to avoid. I'm blessed with 3 Targets in the area and a new one just announced to be built basically in the middle of them all. So if I can't get what I want at one, the others look quite attractive.
Good Morning my buddy!

Quote from thismom4deals :

Apparently nothing gets me up early in the morning like the constant unrelenting thoughts about a dentist appt. :
Don't forget when you hear the words 'open wide', he means your mouth and not your legs laugh out loud

Good luck today. You will be fine. hug

and I just know they'll laugh at my measley orders, that, by the way I was thrilled to get and really wanted and needed more .
The competitor in me now has to go back and count !!!FrownLots more I wanted to comment on but I forget.



Meesh ...You were here ,HI !hug


It was 21 but I really needed more , for two seperate families in desperate need.
hug That was good of you. I sent a box to a couple from church who had twins when I had the babe in November. I had to call her to get her physical addy and wondered what I would say if she wanted to know why (I don't even know her) but she was so sleep-deprived, she just gave it to me and I said thanks! and we hung up. laugh out loud They were probably wondering later who called and why they wanted their address but maybe not so much when the dipeys came. heart I also got 10 boxes for my girls who are getting ready to have babies on my shutterfly thread so I forgot to count those in as well.

Quote from jteef1 :
Illinois does the "warsh" thing too. I learned long ago that it was really "wash," and learned to say it correctly, but still said "Warshington" for years. laugh out loud Oops!

Nothing exciting to report. It's cold, highs in the upper 30's today, 31 tomorrow. Light snow, but no accumulation. So tired of winter.

I don't like it either but don't back down. When he tells you why he won't, tell him why he will, nicely and clearly -- once. Then don't argue just look at him. Hell, use the I'myourmomandImeanit look. When you don't respond and just stand there looking at them not saying anything, for some reason it makes people really uncomfortable. More often than not, it works, if not, get the manager. I'll bet he won't argue with you next time.

When I buy a book
I don't understand this buy a book. Confused You actually PAY for books? EEK! Bash There is a coupon for that, you know and it makes them FREE... around here, we call it a library card. hug

I've got nothing exciting to talk about. I'm just counting down to my fishing trip. Anybody need a recipe or anything? I'm bored. Entertain me people!

.

The manager is the problem. She has the poor cashier afraid to take any coupon.

She doesn't like me and goes out of her way to show that. I must just learn to walk out when that GSTL is there.

I did call GS on the red phone on her once and she will never forget that. They told her she was wrong and she told me she did not have to do what they said. She said she would do it just this once. I don't even remember what the particular coupon or issue was at the time.

Before I get Smack again,
anybody have a $10 amazon baby code they'd be willing to trade? I checked the trade thread but I don't have anything people over there are looking for. I can print multiple TQs and IPQs. I picked up one lone C9 hangtag as well - if someone really wanted more I could probably work up the courage to pick up a few more this weekend. hehe


I hope everyone's day is better (it IS Friday!). It's sunny here and the kids have their school done already, so I'm optimistic it's going to be a good day. Big Grin (that's half the battle right? attitude?)
I don't think I replied lastnight, but I am excited to have more homeschoolers to bounce ideas off here. Everybody has a different system, but I'm hoping the more ideas I get, the better the system I can come up with for us. The biggest part for me (so far) is sticking to a daily schedule.

Are you a trouble-maker? EEK! Wink



So it sounds like we're hosting lunch Sunday for my brother's birthday. At least I have two days to prepare. Clean today. Food prep tomorrow. I wonder if I can find a good deal on Oreos for ice cream cake... I have Blue Bunny in the freezer and a jar of hot fudge. And I'm pretty sure there is some whipped cream in the freezer too. I am drool already!

I've only ever gotten 2 warnings. One because I told someone to 'shut up and go away' and one for something else..oh yeah..debating a moderator. Though the second one was purely innocent. I didn't mean to debate, I was seeking clarification on what was said..and I surmise I was supposed to do it in private.

I am not generally a trouble maker...I know you are all giggling saying 'yeah uh-huh',,,,

Have fun at the party!!

Hey all Wave Well I skipped my prenatel water aerobics today. Embarrassment I was up until midnight, and thought I needed the sleep more! Thanks for the kind words!! hug heart

We had company over last night. J's friends just a had a baby and they came over to show us him. They ended up staying really late! I mean at 8:30, I went upstairs to lay down (I was tired) and they still stayed, then at 10 J finally said he needed to go to to bed, and they left. They have a 5 yo and a newborn, I am not sure why they were staying so late on a school day. I don't think they have spring break this week (next town over) so who knows.
Anyways, since I was up, I was gonna order my carseat from Kohls. Right before I completed the order, I decided to check Amazon just in case, well they had dropped the The First Years True Fit C670 Premier Convertible Car Seat down to $194.99 and it was sold by amazon, so I was able to use my $10 Q to drop it and then use GCs to help pay for it. I still don't know if it was the better deal, but J said it was. I ended up paying $112 oop on Amazon. At Kohls I would have paid $150 oop, but I would have earned $40 in Kohls cash, which I was planning on using it towards a stoller. The only thing is they didn't have the stroller we wanted Dontknow I think I am over thinking it all! laugh out loud

I need to go to Kohls today as well as RA and SW. SW is doing another good frozen food deal, so I have to go! I have $20 in Ups expiring tomorrow at RA so I need to try and spend that (and hopefully get some back) and then I have a $10 Kohls Q to use in store.

That bites. I would be frustrated and just not want to bother too. But ya can't. You have to make them deal with you and deal with you right. Keep that customer service number in your phone and use it. Every time. If it's not too far out of your way or too inconvenient you should stop in as often as you can.

Did you see the Examiner and SacBee got the $10/20 Kohls peelie this week? I can't remember exactly where you are in NorCal, but hope you can find one to use with your $10!
