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.

And I am so glad I got the replacement plan for my DVD player from Target. Sent it in and got it back fixed within a couple weeks!


Sambucol. I personally can't gag down the liquid form but the chewables are awesome! Got these at Wags during a MM deal awhile back. My only attempt at being a Wags Hag. Teehee

ooooh, Dd STILL loves pushing Spikes button at Target laugh out loud

I'm apparently Wags-challenged laugh out loud I haven't even attempted a deal. It's just too much for me. I guess I should have tried for that deal though Teehee

I have been working on learning Wags. Moved this summer and now Target is 15 miles away. (I know, boohoo!) I used to be able to run over on lunch break. Now Wags is very close by, and I am STILL waiting for Target to call so I can work there! I think they don't like the hours I said I would work (days M-F) but they had a position listed for that! They never have the same people working days, which is OK I guess, better cashier selection!

ITA but also for some reason my 6yo brother loves them. ConfusedLMAO Can't figure that one out. He's known to be creative and loves tinkering w/ stuff he's not allowed too. I wonder if the colours appeal to him or something.

I would love to learn Wags too! There are 2 w/in walking distance from my house. I only did the $10RR w/ 8 dove products & the $10 meter RR that was going on at the same time! Other than that, I am totally deal-challenged.

Nikayla: I am so sorry for your loss! Please take care of yourself and family!

Ariel: Cute pictures hug

I think I had too much kool-aid last night. Teehee I have a splitting headache and feel quite icky. I only had 2 drinks but whoa I am out of practice... laugh out loud

The class I am in right now is just dragging on FOREVER. Going to T on my home, are there any deals I should look for? Big Grin

Welcome back! It seems like you've been gone FOREVER!!! Here is your recap...

1. BF had her baby
2. Glade deal is back on
3. Avoid the deals thread at all costs
LOL, thank you for the recap. Congrats BF! Hope you both are doing well. Will need to research the Glade. Will definitely avoid the deals thread. Thanks mama!

Quote from greenbelt :

QQueen- did u do Kmart and Wags- not much time for anything else for me
Yes, I kmart and Publix along with Target. I'm just so out of the loop, I am in denial and can't jump back in. That, and I have no coupons! Need to do some ordering....

I totally Wag... LOVE it. I used to CVS, but let my ECB's expire and never got back into it. My head doesn't break down the deals at CVS like it used to. Frown Wags, on the other hand... if anyone ever wants some help with scenarios - I'd be happy to help. I usually have a bunch worked out for myself anyways.

Been working at putting my q's back into binder organization. I tried putting them in alphabetical order and in a box, but I found I dropped it often, wasn't good at keeping it filed/organized, had a lot of expireds that didn't get pulled, and didn't like not being able to see the pics at a quick glance or finding what I wanted as easily as I thought I would. I don't like the bulkiness of my binder but I guess it works (and if I drop it, it doesn't spill out everywhere!) *shrug* It's taking FOREVER though.

Did ya'll read about the auto deducting experience in the deals thread? If the registers are tallying by manufacturer code like Wags, it may not be such a bad thing. And lack of beeps is always nice.

I just found that I have no more diapers. *sigh* I guess I HAVE to go shopping today! Thank goodness dd is doing really well in the potty training area. I also just read about the clearanced bunn coffee makers. I Pray they have one at my local T. My coffee maker broke at least a month ago, and I've always dreamed of having a bunn coffeemaker. It's probably silly, but...!

My oldest DD is MAD at me. She wants to go do her "job" volunteering at the ballroom, and I squashed it because of her just getting over the flu. She insists that she's fine, but I don't want to take the chance that she'll pick something else up or still have cooties and pass them on to someone else. I am not her favorite person today!

*taken*

I think everyone is getting better here - though I'm feeling a *bit* yucky. Just a bit - hope it's more nerves or tiredness than anything else. (or because of that "p" word - that would be a lovely surprise) Thanks for all the well wishes. I really Pray you are all feeling better or staying healthy.

Just read this article: Holiday Hope for Hasboro [investopedia.com] and kept thinking, how are you going to show a profit when you keep paying us to take your stuff out of stores? Scratchhead

Smilie It's a purple potato and a kumquat.

One store says "limited availability" - I've wanted to call to see if they'll hold it but scared they'll keep it for themselves if they find it. I just hope it's there this evening after hubby gets home!

Thanks Ank, but I"ll be ok. I need some more time to get into the swing of things. I don't even know what coupons came out the past few weeks as the Qs in Canada are totally different.

Oh, and duh on the purple potato and kumquat........how did I not know that? LOL

Qqueen - Well, if you change your mind - let me know!

meeshecat - i'm considering a jam packing weekend. I do have a couple rr's for Wags that I have to get rolled by saturday to extend the dates. My wags are soooo strict on the expiration dates. They have to circle the date, initial it, and then write "used" on the RR after scanning it. I can only imagine the threats they've endured.

I really need to start doing this! Gotta find the thread.

I'm so tired, I need to get to bed but I think I will just lie there and think to much. My grandma just passed at about 8:30. I'm 14 hours away. It's so sad but good in the way that she is not in pain anymore and her and grandpa are together once again. She has been in very poor health for a long time and in so much pain. You know that stage where they become like an infant again. She kept forgetting she couldn't walk, she tried to get out of bed and broke her arm and four ribs. She was at home and had 24 hour care but somehow tried to get out of bed anyway and wasn't stopped. That was two days ago and today she was released from the pain.
hug Im so sorry for your loss Nikayla.

Because you don't feel as if you are surrounded by enough stupidity so you seek it out? LOL Nope I think it is the gluten thing!!! hug

PS - Anyone who has purchased any Trios could you explain what makes them better than K'Nex or Tinker Toys or Lego??? I don't see the attraction.
DS who is 4yrs old loves them. I opened two of the airplane boxes and he plays with it every day. He makes a lot of stuff with them as the bricks can easily connect and big enough for him build, break and rebuild. He loves the bricks one and rarely uses the sticks as those are a little harder for him to attach to the bricks.


This morning I went to T to check out the glade. No sign of any deal yet so I just picked up 3 airwick imotion and some 75% clearance garden stuff before my qs expire. This is were the weird thing happened. This is a store where the TQs are showing as 0.00 even if they are substracting from the total. When the cashier scanned the $6 q, it beeped but she remembered it was 5.99 so she adjusted the amount to 5.99. But then the register asked for supervisor approval EEK! I thought that coupons for $10 or more are the only ones asking for supervisor approval but this happened. When she entered the second and third one, both asked for supervisor approval again. This is the first time this happened to me and maybe something new? shake head I have bought the airwick before and had the q adjusted so many times but this is the only time this happened.

Ok lets see I cannot manage Wags too... I was thinking about doing Wags during school time while the kids are in school BUT I still have 4 little kids at home which makes leaving next to impossible..also matching some of the deals makes my head spin in comparison to Target which I can understand more HAHA!! Hope you have LOTS of fun this weekend, shop lots and get some good X-mas gifts if you need to Wink I can't wait to shop... I need to go to shoppers anonymus I want to shop 7 days a week!! HAHA!!hug

Here's the run down of my day so far - drop off DS at school, hit the blinkie machines at K for Glade, Dr. apt, run in Food Lion and find display of jar candles... hit those green peelies like a badger in heat, run in T that is not so close to me and do a little glad-aying, head back to pick up DS and pass another FL (again with the badgering of the peelies), pick up DS and home for lunch.

Damn. No wonder I'm tired.

When I got home I told DH that he could never run for public office because I'm sure groceries stores throughout town have me on video getting peelies and such. I mean, Michelle Obama may have shopped at Target, but I doubt she ever whipped a swiss army knife out of her purse and tried to break into a blinkie machine. laugh out loud
