Whee is a mole LMAO look at her avatar!!! But she is one of the longest contributors to this thread as well. I don't think ANYONE has to worry about her, or her intentions.

Back a few months ago (in one of the retired threads) she would post a deal and I'm positive that she would get a BILLION PM's about it. laugh out loud
I love Whee's multiple per page coupons, I KNOW they will always work so no need to print off a bunch of different ones to see which ones work. Plus now I have to buy Transformers underoos too since it's such a great idea. It's low on the list but I'll get them before ETQ's are over.

Has anyone bought those intex pools from target, the $49 or $99 ones? What do you think about them if you have? Yes I've read the reviews online but like opinions of my people

Quote from jimmywalt :
Can you explain why it stinks???? I'm dying to know.
It leaks bubble solution everywhere. You have to pump it a million times to get it going and then when it does, it leaks. So stop, then pump again a million times. Just too much hassle, if I was the kid I would throw it aside for the next toy.

It's a bubble shooter, in with the little tikes toy. I actually wrote to the manufacturer last night, they said they will replace it. We suspect the new one will be the same so we are going to return it when we get the new one. It's just not made well.
But the price was right!!!! LMAO

ROTFL. Since it isn't your family, I will tell you this story.

Last week I was checking out at Target. I kid you not, the cashier had hair just like in your picture. Blond as could be. Had more hair spray in it than the hair care aisle at Target. I thought of your avatar right away!! I was laughing in my head, but chatting her up about cpns and such. She was really nice.

Anyways, the girls and I are going to head out to Kmart and Target in a bit. I have a small list ready for Target, nothing much. My girls have found a new love in Play-doh, and we need a few more colors to make things work.

For those of you who are running low on ink:

Don't forget that next week, April 2 only, Walgreens is refilling ink cartridges for free. They will fill either one black or one color cartridge per person. They will do lexmark, hp, and dell, but NO canon or epson.

So if you're close to being done with your cartridge, print up tons of extra coupons and get a free refill.
OT, though please call store to see if the ink cartridge you have is able to be refilled. DH

stood in line forever got to the front and they told him they couldn't refill his HP cartridge.

It is for certain types of Lexmark-->HP--> and Dell.

Be advised it is a madhouse when this promotion is offered!

Ya know, I found the neatest thing in the "pool/bubble" aisle. They are Nick Bubble (Dora, Backyardigans, Diego), and they are in a squeeze tube (kinda looks like a Bingo marker tube), needless to say, you squeeze the tube where it says and the wand pops "up" and all the kids do is "blow." Haven't tried it yet, but it's a neat idea to avoid the messes.

Gosh, my wording didn't sound to hot. laugh out loud

Also, i have pm'd people a few times and been completely ignored...to me that's just rude. It takes 5 seconds to type a reply. If you don't feel comfortable sharing information, then just say that please.
I agree with TargetMagic about the clique feel to the thread...it's like I'm in high school again and not quite cool enough for the a list lol.....I'm not even sure it's intentional but it seems very hard to break into this thread.
Not sure it has everything to do with being new. I have ask questions and been ignored in PM and in the thread. Dontknow I think it has more to do with how busy people are, if they know wot you are taling about, and maybe how paranoid they are. I know it is really hard for me to keep up with the thread, print coupons, and shop. I have a million other things going on IRL and it is hard to keep up with both Targeting the SD way and all I have to do. I do try to answer PM's but sometimes it takes me days or weeks. If people don't reply it's not a big deal.

PS Got the coupons you sent me yesterday! hug Thank you so much.

Quote from MamaRo :
Just an FYI, I believe the Honey Bunches of Oats Q's have been reset. I was able to print 3 more Q's from the three links in this post. (Although I was able to print 2 for each link previously, this time it would only let me print 1 each).
Not that I need any more of this stuff but hey, a deals a deal, right? laugh out loud

Thanks!

Quote from mariah2222 :
I have a quick question,.. Has anyone seen any of those Duraflame logs left on clearance or are they long gone everywhere? I checked one store and found none, I am wondering if its worth checking other stores.
DH brought some home and I thought they were from Target, he said he got them from Walmart clearance but can't remember exact price 50 cents to $1. Not Duraflame brand, store brand. We used them camping over the weekend. They smelled kind of chemicalish as first.

Friend of mine gave me $5 off $25 at Target expiring 3/31/08. It shows no limitations. Is this a valid coupon? If so, where can I get more? Mine doesn't look so well since it is a copy of a copy and it says no copies allowed. I'd like to go to Target today if I can get a better version of the coupon. Thanks.

I'd throw it away, sounds like you might get in trouble with such a coupon.

Ok, so after reading all this shat about cliques I can't help but to respond. I try to keep all of my OT opinions to myself but just can't hold it in anymore. Let me begin with saying that I am also a new to this thread as of last month.

I think that the people that you all are accusing of being some sort of clique are the only reason this thread is still going. These are the people who are the experts at finding the deals and for that reason post the deals more frequently which then leads to buttload of pm's with questions about the deals. If you don't get an answer in your pm, GET OVER IT!! Be grateful of all of the help they have already provided for you and move on to the next deal there going to hand you.

I can't even begin to tell you how much money I have saved because of these people without the need bug them in a pm. Granted there has been a couple of times I have requested help through pm and have been answered right away.

I have posted quite a few times without any response, but I just figure it's because the info I posted may not be useful to anyone. I'm not gonna sit and cry about it and make accusations. So, please for the sake of all of us being adults here, get over your insecurities from high school and move on with the deals.

Ok I'm off mySoap Box

Quote from jimmywalt :
Here are some hints for the newbies (and anyone else who wants them). These are things the I do:
1. When you read the thread and find a coupon attached (or a link to one) immediately save it (or the link) to your hard drive. Then you shouldn't have a problem finding it later.
2. If you find a good deal in a post, write down the post number and page number (it will make it a lot easier to find it again later if you want). Also write down on paper all the details of that deal.
3. Try to pay attention to who the people are that are posting most of the deals, they often are the ones that are happy to answer additional questions about deals.
4. Most important rule ----- catch up on this thread EVERY DAY (even when your spouse is in bed at 9:46 PM and you still have 14 pages of "Target" to catch up on). If you don't tomorrow when you wake up you will find yourself in a deeper hole (with up to 25 pages of stuff to read).

HTH. Smilie
Quote from TargetMagic :
Great tips! For #2 I click on the post number, then it comes up as a separate page. Then I put it into an email and send it to myself with whatever the subject is. I never seem to have a paper or pencil handy, and I can go back to that specific post later when I have more time.
i cut and paste the deals i'm interested in to a running word document that i print out when i'm going to the store. i put the date and then cut and paste the deals for that day, so i know how old the deals are. sometimes i'll put the post no. and page also if the deal is a complicated one. periodically i go thru the deals and delete those that are too old.

if i start cutting and pasting alot, i'll *tile* the two windows horizontally so i don't have to keep maximizing and minimizing the ms word doc.

and today i just started another word doc for ip q links so i can cut and paste onto there as well. i think it will work really well, b/c i'll have them all in one place and you can go directly to the link from the word doc. although i might change it to excel if it ends up too cumbersome and needs to be alphabetized.

blueshore, mine does beep if overage but ymmv for walmart.

Thx on the stop/shop tip I wish I had that q though, I don't think it was in my inserts.
thanks for the wally info
my popcorn q's did not come in inserts, I ordered them from ladybug after reading about it on here...they are the ones that took over a week to get here. no more ladybug for me. Something is fishy, I ordered on sunday the 16th and got an email monday saying they were shipped...not they did not arrive until YESTERDAY!!!! When I looked at the post date on the envelope it said 3/15 (a day before I even ordered)...so somethings not right, she must run a bunch of envelopes through to get the dates on and mail them whenever she wants.

what's up with my Target? Frown
It's like they've stopped stocking on Soy Milk. Ever since I started using the $2 off Q. First Vanilla flavor was gone, then I switched to original, then that was gone too. Weeks have gone by and they haven't restocked. When I went to Target yesterday only chocolate milk was left. :yuck: Also I noticed they've been raising the prices on items that I regularly use my MQs on. And some items aren't there anymore. Does my Target hate me???
