So, what are you guys using the peach/pineapple salsa on? Pork roast, I got that. Anything else? Would it be good on ham?

I think it would be excellent on ham! Probably even better than pork.

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.
Really? I didn't cover any bar code last night and they went through fine. I used hte kraft and a HE one with the new bar codes. Hmmmm....

And what is this Dove q you speak of using on ALL..detergent??? Confused TIA

Thank all of you for reading my mind about the SCO at WM. They have taken them out of the SWM's here, but they have built neighborhood centers that only carry the items a regular grocery store have and they have SCO. This one is one a few months old and I am going to try some Q's today..!!! Is it my right or the coupons right..(barcode to cover)

Hi!

The right side bar code ON the coupon, I believe (bottom right hand corner, IOW).

HTH!

It works fine unless the computer picks up the right bar code before it reads the left one. Luckily I found this out using totally legits, current mfq. The supervisor had to come over and put in her numbers before the transaction would finish. She told me that's what happened.

Agreed. And P&G and another MFQ I can't remember ALWAYS beep on the 6th coupon, never use more than 5 at a time if you're getting the incorrect item, i.e. swiffer

I have found at Wm SCO that you shouldn't use more than 5 q's and after $20 in coupons the machine will ask for assistance. HTH!!

They must all be set up differently because at mine, I can only use 5 q's also, but the total can be over $20.

It was only when I tried a sixth one, that it asked for assistance

Ok...i'm really confused b/c I used one clean team q at the sco and it immediately asked for approval...are you saying if I covered one of the bar codes it would not do this??

Uhm so after the 4th temper tantrum during a t run I am turning to you guys.....do you have any tips on how to keep my two year old from freaking out while in the store?? I tried the popcorn trick...worked a couple of times and now she's over it.....she literally makes me not want to shop! She just turned two on the 3rd and I swear to god she turned into a temper tantrum throwing, crying, screaming mess over night!! I'm soooo ready to rip my hair out!!
I've got one like that...and he is now 6! He hasn't quit yet. My older two were angels in comparison. To top it all off, he has a birthmark that covers one side of his face. So, as I am trying to catch him, calm him down, and/or reprimand him we always have a peanut gallery either staring at him or looking angry at me for what looks like an injury inflicted BY me. I've even had someone stop me in a store and lecture me on child abuse!! EEK!

So now...once a month we have the "will you behave in the store this time?" And we go over all the rules. If it goes well, he gets to go again. If it doesn't go well, he has to wait another month.

*snip* so i get here like 5 minutes later...and her kids had already helped themselves to chips...which no biggie but I would never let my kid do that!!

It probably recognized the right bar code first. I always just hit okay on the screen and then make sure it is covered. I have never had one that required approval just for using the coupon.

i've got a question for those of you who buy the full inserts. would you pay extra to have the entire insert clipped for you so they'd be ready to go when you got them? and if so how much extra per insert?
