This thread is being created so people -- generally, those people who can't seem to resist talking about off-topic junk in the Target coupon thread -- have a place to talk about shopping at Target and other miscellaneous matters.

All you folks who hang out in the Target coupon thread, start hanging out here instead! When you've got something relevant to post about Target coupons, please post about it in the Target coupon thread! We'd love to hear about it, but NOT about your dog, your cat, your mom, your genital herpes, your... well, you get the idea.

WTHeck?!? Fusion razors rolling?!? Need to get on that one tmw...along with the lotions (did I mention they feel nice?). I just haven't been Wagging like I used to - too tired! It's hard at times to keep up. DS, you mentioned that you haven't really been couponing at T lately but shopping clearances...I've been doing the same. I do a run here and there, but find I don't as much as I used to. Sorry to hear your little guy is not doing well. hug Sending happy thoughts your way!

Teri, hope you get an offer you like tmw! Will be thinking of you and sending good luck wishes your way!!

Ugh, not looking forward to work tmw with my B of a boss... *sigh*

So I look over at my 17 month old son, who seems a little "too quiet" in his super expanded playard... I see his little arm reaching through the "bars" towards the tissue box... He grabs a tissue and I say, "No!"... He immediately stuffs the tissue back in the box and pulls his little arm back. I walk over and see almost an entire box of Kleenex (with Lotion!), looking like a blanket of snow by his feet. He looks up at me and both DH and I start cracking up and then he starts to laugh. Needless to say we had a Kleenex snow fight. Thank goodness for coupons or I might have been annoyed at him for wasting the "good" tissues Wink
:rofl: that is hilarious!

Hey - don't you want us all showing up on your doorstep? BBlue will have casserole, Ariel will have Mangoes, Sharon will have Kleenex, Sky & IMNAA will be dressed as wonderpets & I will be the Oompa Loompa covered in piles & piles of crap LOL

Went to ST tonight.
Used some Qs.
They all worked well.
Cashier missed 2 of my Snapples (I still have no idea how this happened).
The end.

Went to Wag's this am and picked up 3 of the lotions (they feel nice!) with some fillers (used $5 RR's from two weeks ago and the $1.50 mq's). Can you share the kick-ass deal with me? Pretty please? Girly

Oh, and what is the DS thread? I think I'm missing something here with peeps MA'ing in here and something else going on in other threads? Dontknow
Bblue's deal was from last week (sorry, I think I typed "this week" in my first post). She's the one who noticed that the P&G catalinas were rolling into each other and themselves. Same as this week, apparently.

Sometimes I really think the peeps at P&G are Crazy or really dopey. Smilie

Quote from bblueskye :
Embarrassment The only reason that even occurred to me is b/c I speak UPC Teehee Seriously though, most of us TCC'ers can interpret a code, but it seems like that is rare on the DS forums. People mostly stick to the exact wording of MQs.
It's sooooo true. And it blows my mind that anyone would coupon w/o understanding how barcodes work. Even if you don't want to use that knowledge to your best advantage Wink still, not knowing ANYTHING about how Qs work puts you at a huge disadvantage when you go to the checkout.

*trying* to catch up... jeepers - miss a day or so and the thread goes wild!

I am also trying to play my poker tourney - finally made it to the 2nd round! I wish I'd make it further - it'd be pretty kewl to get to play with some pros on tv!

Quote from crazy4vs :
Ank, how are your knees today? Did you take a tumble going after the toddler?
I did. I was going down some steps outside of my friends house and slipped. Ended up on my hands and knees. Frown

Quote from lemonlime :
Maybe some of you Target experts can figure this out. Yesterday I bought 4 Airwick I-motions larger kits. All of them are the same thing Cool Linen & White Lilac with the UPC #062338822891. However, on the receipt one is listing as item #003040141 for $5.02 and the other three are item #003041229 for $5.99 each. Those grouped together for a total of $17.97, and I bought no other Air Wick things so I am confused. I have looked and looked at these packages and can find no differences, but figure it shouldn't make any difference since all the UPC's are the same.
Are those numbers maybe DCPI numbers - have you tried looking them up on the online DCPI thingy?

Quote from Dec12Girl :
Ank- How are cha? Are your poor knees feeling any better? Sending HEAL FAST vibes!!!
I'm hobbling around a lot. At least I'll have some extra sympathy when the baby starts getting skinned knees. I made the mistake of letting it air out last night after spending 2 days peroxiding and neosporining the heck out of my knees... I'm not sure what hurt worse. I could barely bend my knees today! (I also think I must be getting old - I feel achy and cranky with every little thing - lol)

Quote from .teri. :
Question for Waggers....I see where people get tons of stuff w/ RR deals...but the WAGS FAQ thread says only one RR deal per transaction. For ex: the vaseline stuff this week 6.99 get 6.99 RR. I can only buy 1 bottle per transaction, right? if I get 4 bottles, I will still only get 6.99, right?

So my question is this....I've seen where people order cases of stuff to buy. Do you make multiple transactions in one trip, or do you keep going back to wags during the week...I see pics on the one thread of tons of stuff and I don't know how they are getting that much unless they are going to the store a gazillion times during the week, or ringing up each item as a separate transaction.

I'm trying to decide if WAGS would be worth trying out, but I really don't have time to go to a store every day for one item.
Sorry if this has been answered already. Wags is worth it depending on where you are and who your cashiers/managers are. It has become increasingly more difficult here to get decent deals. They don't allow you to go negative or let your coupons pay part of your tax, so there's always an oop cost. Also, some folks talk about rolling into GC, and I have yet to have a store manager or cashier who allows it.

You do have to do multiple transactions. This is one thing my stores don't mind, though I do tend to keep it limited to 2-3 at a time on most occasions. I do have a store/cashier that lets me do as many as I want, but I try not to overdo it or push my luck - not yet anyways...

Quote from .teri. :
I would like to think we are all 'family' here and that we would ask via PM before we MA so as not to offend or hurt someones feelings. The best thing about the members here is that they have always taken the time to explain things to me, whether it's about coupon usage or to let me know I've posted something I shouldn't.
hmm... guess I missed some more fun. I've always been a fan of PM's. I've had some folks kindly PM me when I was noob and made dumb noob questions or statements, and even now, I will occasionally get a PM when I mess something up... so I learned pretty quickly to extend the same kind of courtesy. Most folks are decent about it and quick to correct their own mistakes.

I dislike when the posts disappear because there is often some other info in there that is important or useful (or just interesting). Too bad they couldn't just edit out the questionable items. *shrug*

Okay... gonna try to catch up here and then read the news on doubles at K... and if they are working, try to figure out some good scenarios!

Today we went to see Cloudy WAC of Meatballs and there was a preview for some other movie with aliens and stuff. Well one of the aliens picks up a candy wrapper and looks at the barcode and says something to the effect of the barcode reads that humans want to take over the world, can't remember exactly. It made me laugh out loud at the theater with as much time as I spend looking at barcodes, the thought of them meaning something else cracked me up.

Thanks, hun. hug

Yes...I used to coupon without understanding how the barcodes work. Now I wonder what the heck was I thinking?!? But if you don't know, then how would you know there's more to it than what you thought? Other than searching for something coupon related and then stumbling across useful info about coupons/UPC's (this is what happened to me)? Dontknow I'm very thankful and glad to know as much as I do now!! Coverlaugh

Ank, sorry you got hurt!! hug I hope you feel better soon.

Went to KM this am and asked manager if they were doubling this week. She said, "Yep!" Then I asked if there were any restricitions, and she said, "Nope!" laugh out loud I then asked if there were any coupon limits, and she said, "Nope!"
Went to KM today for no particular reason, just to use up some Qs and the girl says, "you're going to use all those coupons?", me: "yep" (I really didn't have that many), girl: "I can only take 10 because the register will only double 10", me: "That's ok, the register will stop doubling after 10". She totally bought that and just started scanning - the truth is, I didn't even realize they were doubling and I didn't have a single coupon under $2 that would have doubled anyway. So, I guess I wasted a "doubles" run Teehee. But it did appear that there was a limit of 10 Dontknow

You'd think that if they wanted to sell, they'd be eager to entertain whatever offers came in - whenever they came in!
