not sure if anyone noticed, but the new TQ are up and they look like they are now set to be limited prints per computer. They look like smartsource coupons.. stupid target Frown
They are e-centive, only let me print twice but I was able to print the Up coupon at least 4 times on one computer. Confused Like the Dr. Pepper coupon that was emailed out a few weeks back. Some good coupons though- Nabisco, PEPSI.

I have just been sucked into reading this thread...I am usually on the shutterfly thread...but, if you let me know the state and county where you father lives, I might be able to find out some information for you. Ariel can vouch for me that I am not a stalker or a wierdo...I work at a non-profit in Iowa and have had some luck helping others out on the shutterfly chat thread. If you don't want to share this information with me, I understand...your best bet would be to contact the local VA office in the area that your father currently lives. Depending on your state, you might just be able to call 2-1-1 (just like 9-1-1) for information and referral. In Iowa, we have a state-wide data base that the 2-1-1 operator can access.
I can vouch for her, she is VERY legit, non stalkerish and has personally helped me!! hug She even has my home addy and hasn't sent a killer to my house yet Tongue

Quote from mama2cole :
Got bad news this morning that my Dad had to be sent via ambulance to the hospital. They think it might be a stroke or his cancer has spread to the brain. He's been battling colon/liver cancer for the last year. My sister is on her way now and I'm tying up loose ends around here so I can leave tomorrow. I'm going to leave DH and the kids here so I can focus on what we need to do with Dad and then I'll decide of we're all going to go back at Thanksgiving. I guess I should be thankful that DH has 1 more week of paternity leave scheduled. Ugh. This sucks.

If anyone knows anything about benefits thorugh the VA for long-term care can you PM me. I don't even know where to begin with all this.
Aww hun, I am sooo sorry! I will b Pray for you!
Quote from .teri. :
To my TCC friends, my results were not good. I am having a biopsy (and praying for a miracle) but the doctor said that they tried everything they could on the other tests to make it NOT cancer. It's not a good cancer, and is quick.

I love you all, and have enjoyed so much the time we spend here. Right now, I have a house full of family downstairs and I need to be with them. I'm sure I'll find my way back here in the late hours when I am alone and in need of conversation. hug
You know you are in my thoughts and Pray!!!! hug
Quote from mama2cole :
Ahhhh qqueen, you always know how to make me smile! Thanks for all the kind words and PMs and prayers. My sister is at the hospital now and has talked to the doctor. They don't think it's a stroke or neuro related (which they did this morning). They just think that his liver is beginning to shut down from the cancer and that since it isn't working anymore it isn't ridding the body of toxins. So essentially there is a back up of excess toxins and he is acting like he's high or in the middle of a drug overdose. They are trying to regulate with meds and trying to bring him back to reality. I'm leaving in the morning by myself to head down for at least a few days to figure out what is going on and what our next step is. I'm really upset about leaving DH and the kids here but I know it's for the best and I'll be able to focus on what I need to without having to care for a newborn or entertain a 3 year old.

I'll update when I can. You guys are the absolute best! hug
Teri, thanks a ton for the PM and I'm thinking about you!

Frown So sorry M2C and Teri *sigh*



on a completely un-important note: My Zhu zhu hamster is dead on arrival. I wanted to get batteries in it so it would be ready to wrap for dd's Christmas present (trying to get everything done much sooner this year. last year, I was grumpy through December Blink) and undo those horrible ties so she wouldn't get frustrated on Christmas morning but he will not work. I'm so sad Frown No chance of finding another one! a sweet SD'er found and sent me this one. I tried to call the 1-800 number but they were closed. Sadwalk

I would love to go. No car. Mad Tempted to take the bus, so I *might* do that - if we get schoolwork done.

Didn't read deals thread - anything important/interesting?

I went yesterday and had a decent shopping experience. I would've done better if it weren't for throwing things in the cart that weren't really planned (like an 8.00 magazine for DD!!! I didn't even realize how much it was til I got home!)

They were out of the roaster and buffet server, but they did have lots of the tables. They did have a few of the crock pot servers, but I forgot to take a good look at 'em. Has anyone had any of these items? Are they worth it? Also, according to the store, several of the non-ST stores had the roaster (in multiples - like 6-8!) I think it was kind of silly to send 'em in such quantity to those stores since you have to purchase a turkey to get the gift card with it! I had been tempted to ask if I bought it at one store could I return and rebuy it at ST - but I chickened out! I also forgot to try the Red Bull.

18 Qt. Roaster DCPI 072 04 0034
Buffet server DCPI 072 04 0178
6 ft. folding table DCPI 249 00 0012

ETA: I also used the bakery TQ for the first time. They had brownies and bars for 1.50, but didn't try that. I used it on the 5 pk scones mini tub. YUM!! No beeps and auto'd. All IP TQ's showed up as 0.00, but deducted the right amount (I watched). It's kind of disconcerting to see that 0.00 though.

Oh, I had found a tearpad somewhere (can't remember where exactly - sorry) for .50/2 Kraft Marshmallows. Went great with the 1.00/2 TQ. The marshmallows are 1.02 for the mini's and .92 for regular at my ST.

I also saw a peelie on the MP pasta, but don't remember the exact details (wish I'd wrote some down). I *think* it was for free pasta when you buy Ragu (or 3 Ragu - that number seems to stick in my head.)

I also used the BOGO TQ for fancy feast cat appetizer, but it has a shorty bar code. Weird thing is that the .42 cans don't. TQ automatically deducted the right amount though, so that was good.

I also got 4 chinet plates. I had bogo tearpad for the plates, and then peelies for free dessert plates when you buy the dinner plates. I tried to use 1 bogo tearpad and 2 peelies, but was only allowed to use one peelie because with the bogo tearpad q I was only "buying" one. *shrug* I wasn't gonna argue much - free after gc works here.

I did the lunchmeat/free cheese combo again. Wish I'd been doing that more often. I didn't pay attention, though, and so the cashier missed the free cheese coupon. I'm going to take the baggie with intact coupon back to the store and get my refund. I do have to say that I *hate* going to the deli counter. They guy that is always there makes it feel like you are bothering him - whether you are getting 1 thing of lunchmeat or several. It's kind of frustrating and annoying. I can understand having a bad day, but it's like that every time I've gone. Additionally, if things are that bad, or you hate your job that bad that you can't be at least cordial to a customer and force a small smile then you really ought not be at work! (well, that's my opinion about it anyways) It makes me want to avoid the deli counter (and I usually do until a TQ comes out). They are also very slow. I can count on spending a good 20-30 minutes there if no one is in front of me if I want to get my typical 3-4 meats and 1 cheese.

Oh - granny smith, braeburn apples, and another kind (gala, I think) were .99/lb. Green giant baby carrots - 1.50/2lb baggie.

The only think I have read in the deals thread is that they are freaking out that TQs are now limited prints.

I'm planning on it, but can't make it until tonight. Hubby broke down on the way home from work last night. He's been driving my sister's car until we get another one, and he has no idea what went wrong with it. He thought at first it had run out of gas, but they put gas in it and it still wouldn't start. So my dad thinks it might be the fuel pump. My poor sister - she just got her license and can't wait to have her car, but now she has to get it fixed!! I'm just glad it happened when my husband was driving, and not my sister, because she's only 19, and I hate the thought of her stranded in an unfamiliar place with a broke-down car.

So all that to say - my shopping plans have been derailed for the time being. Frown I will still go tonight once hubby gets home, but will only be able to fit in maybe one store. Plus I need to hit the grocery store as well.

And I know this is so trivial compared to the heartache some are facing here, but has anyone had to buy tires recently? We HAVE to get two new front tires on our van before we go away for Thanksgiving, and Joseph just called me with the quote. Prices have gone up over $40 PER TIRE since we last bought one!!! EEK! The guy at the shop said that when the oil prices went crazy, tires shot up because it takes oil to make tires. Lovely.

Oh, and hubby got cleared for the part-time job!! YAY!!! bounce He has to get sworn in today sometime, and then he'll find out when he starts. Such a HUGE blessing - it will bring such relief to our stretched-out budget, its not even funny. I am so looking forward to not having a headache as I walk up to checkout, hoping my calculations are right and my total is less than $5 cuz that's all that's in the bank... laugh out loud
