Quote from *whee* :
Aren't they all pretty much the same though? I've used regular Huggies baby wipes to take off my makeup and it just melts off waterproof eyeliner like nobody's business. Even my makeup cleanser doesn't take it off as well as the baby wipes do. And if you get the wipe-juice (I don't know what to call it... ) gets in in your eyes, it burns. I don't think any of those wipes are as gentle as anyone would think. I mean, they're meant to get poop off a bottom, and make it clean enough so that nothing nasty grows in the cracks and crevices in between bathtime. laugh out loud

Wow. that's a good idea. I've been giving all my baby wipes q's away.. and buying makeup wipes without q's, grrr. I'll have to find those cleanteam & kandoo wipes q's.
Baby wipes are the BOMB. Seriously, they're good for just about everything. I keep some in the car for spills, or in case I've touched something disgusting on a shopping cart/at the grocery store/on a dog walk/etc. Then I keep the travel packs in my purse for the same thing, just for more immediate relief from the grossness. And then I have some in my bathroom for makeup removal, which I really only use on nights that I'm too tired to fully wash my face because getting it all off, even if there's still a little baby wipe residue, is important, or if I put on waterproof liner. And they're good for keeping in the bedroom for, um... Teehee how do I say this delicately? Cleanups? Blush3 Great for use with all that free Durex crap. Evillaugh

Go buy some trial packs, and when he sits down with his back to you, throw a pack at the back of his head Evil. Then keep throwing them until he notices wtf you're throwing. Then go use 'em. Whee LMAO

hehehe. My dh was sooooo happy when he saw those q's. He was practically running out the door.. actually wanted to go to T for a change. He was ticked to know they were for overages, instead.

I told my DH about this q also, and the first words out of his mouth were "cool, go get us some toys". This is the same man who hates me using coupons and wants me to stop but yet he wants me to use this one. Men!!!

I posted this over in coupons, but wanted to share it here too.

Free YoBaby Yogurt...

https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=10650358&postcount=6

ETA: That's been moved b/c it didn't belong there--they'd merged me with another thread that was for another set of q's for $$ off.

Anyway, if you want the link and the referral name (which I'm not allowed to post here) go to www.moneysavingmom.com and go down a few posts on her blog. Its all there.

I think I felt far stupider tonight checking out than I have so far...and it was all MY fault!!!

So I go to check out and I'm the type of person who constantly changes her mind when she shops...so I hand him my q's...and he gets to one and looks at it funny and says did you get this??? and it's a cranium etq of which i had no cranium. I said oh no sorry and grabbed it back!! This happens two more times with two different q's...so at this point I feel like a moron and just want to get out of there!!

I had already entered my card and my pin...so he tells me it says invalid pin. so I type it again, invalid...this happens two more times before it spits it back out. So then I realize it's my other debit card and i say oh ok no prob...type in the pin and it won't work!! So I start digging for my other card and can't find it...then it dawns on me what the pin really is!!! The whole time he just kinda looked at me like you're retarded lol.

I have done this before too. Given the wrong coupons and then using the wrong card. It seems once you get a little flustered, it just gets worse. Horrible feeling. I hate making an a** out of myself.

So why is it that I'm spending my time in the Target threads instead of making the Easter baskets that need to be made for a party tomorrow? I know most of you are in bed as you are 2 or 3 hours ahead, so I'm kinda lonely.

When I get up to the register, after making small talk, what I usually do is tell them I have a bunch of q's, and then I sort of mumble to myself, but loud enough for them to hear, that I need to go through it and take out anything that I didn't buy, or that they didn't have that day. Sooo, as they're scanning away, I pull out my pile and sort through, and then I'll loudly go, "Oh, I didn't buy this.... or this.... and you guys were out of this one, so let me get that out of there," and then I set it aside to show them that they don't have anything to worry about, and to actually make sure all the q's I have are for what I'm buying. Usually, by the time they're done scanning the merchandise, I'm part of the way through the pile, so I'll hand them what I've sorted through, and go,"Ok, those I've looked through..." and then I go through the rest. It's useful both in saving myself the embarrassment of the "did you buy this?" conversation, and in making sure they understand that I'm trustworthy and not trying to pull a fast one by throwing in q's for items I'm not buying. Plus, it keeps me from not having anything to do with my hands, if I start off a little flustered to begin with.

I gotta vent a bit, unrelated to Target...

...My hubby just dropped a bomb on me and I can't call any family/friends cause its too late. He has been unemployed for 3 months now, and I don't know if panic is setting in or what, but he says he wants to enlist. He wants me to go with him to a recruiters office on Monday...I just don't even know what to think about this right now...
DO NOT GO ARMY (says the woman who's husband just got screwed and medically discharged after 8 years last month) Now the Air Force is pretty nice. I'd tell him to talk to them. My brother is an AF recruiter drop me a PM if you have any questions.

I still get super nervous and flustered when using coupons. Lately I've mostly used legit q's.....i just get nervous about the overage q's etc....Oddly enough lately I've had more luck using overage q's at the store that shall not be mentioned lol.

I'm going to T to return my scented oil refills. The 12 pk is 3.xx at Sam's online. I wonder if the price is wrong?

If you are talking about the $3.50 dove coupons for the ALL - I would say use no more than 2-3 per transaction. I always use two and then do another transaction right after the first one with a couple more. Make sure when you scan ANY coupon at SCO to cover the right bar code. If the system recognizes the right bar code, it will require an approval after the transaction is finished.
