So, what's the best current deal on this two sprayer doo-hickey again??? Mine is one spray.
Well, I think the best deal is at Walgreen's if you have one near you....mine WAGS only had the one sprayer so I didn't buy it there (I only have one WAGS in the area).

At Walgreen's it is 19.99 -$10 MQ - $5 MIR is $5 not bad just make sure it's a 2 sprayer like I said.

I ended up buying mine at T. They're on sale this week for $18.99 or something - $10 MQ so still $8.xx isn't bad....

Yes, I know this is the Target thread, but I'm gonna haul right off and post this non-Target info here anyway. For those of you in the mid-west my Fareway had Tave 4-packs for 99cents yesterday. This doesn't appear to be a clearance or a flyer deal. They just had a big display of it for that price. I just printed the $1.50 coupons from the links on here and at couponbug and coupons.com.

My guy went right from bottle to sippy cups no problem, I even cut teh formula out at that time too. But i have a hungry boy who will eat and drink anything.

try differnt sippy cups, the only one mine got the hang of were the gerber grads with the handles on them.


My crazy guy went into th ekitchen withme to make lunch and grabbed 2 cereal cups i got at Target, he has been holding them and playing with them for he past hr!

Quote from megnsamsgrace :
I hope this counts as chit chat... we have a momma kitty with 2 kittens that were born the day before Easter. I have another momma cat who I knew was going to have hers very soon. Well I woke at 8:30 this am to a crying kitty.. my first reaction was the 1st momma moved hers out here.. nope. Momma #2 had hers.. in my DDs room by the door.. left it and climbed under the bed. Wanted nothing to do with it (the sac was gone though). Momma #1 started cleaning it. #2 ran off and left baby under bed.. so I moved baby in w/ #1. She is feeding it and cleaning it. Now, I hear another crying from downstairs. Sure enough, she just plopped it out (sac again gone) and left it and started cleaning herself. SHe is far from done, feels like at least 2 more in there. Its cold and crying, so I bring that one to #1. Again, momma #1 takes it in and cleans and starts to feed it.

Now.. should I not have done this? Momma #2 has just left 2 kitties alone.. like she could care less. I locked her into a room now because I am afraid of our dog. The other 2 babies are reachable for the dog and she has let them be (they are under my DS's desk where the dog COULD get to them if she wanted) so far.. but I would be afraid if momma #2 plopped down anymore.. who knows. We also have 2 males and another female in the house.

Is it okay that the 2 kitties are with the other female cat since it seems like their momma doesnt have a clue what to do?
If you really want the original mamma to take care of them, try putting them in a box with a heating pad underneath a towel or blanket in the same room as her while she finishes labor/birth. They should stay warm, or can lose their ability to nurse/suckle.

Some mama's really don't want to take care of their kittens while they are in labor. First time mama's can really be just overwhelmed. "What do I do now?" "Where can I hide them?" etc. First time mom's are notorious for hiding kittens all over the house. If she looks like she's resting between births, or seems to be done. Try and put her in the nest/box, keep the room dark (closets are even better), and pet her and praise her quietly while trying to coax her to nurse/clean the babies. If she obviously doesn't want to try after a few hours, or it's immediately certain that she's just plain not going to....I'd let Mama #1 go ahead and take care of them if she's willing.
HTH

So...Target related.
My boss told me a funny story last night. After Xmas, she wanted to pay off her Target charge card with cash. Since she has her own retail business, she had about $200 worth of quarters in her piggy bank. She brought $400 in cash (half bills/half quarters) to pay her bill. (Now I'm already laughing at this)

The CSR was happy to help her count the quarters, and they laughed about it a bit. Then the manager walked by and put a stop to the whole thing. Spouting off things like..."I'm not a bank, I can't store that many quarters (we're talking 20 rolls here), you're taking up too much of her time." It was very quiet in there at the time, BTW.

So, she said "OK, How many quarters can I use to pay my bill?" He says "$30".
"Fine. Here's my $30."
Then! She went into the store, and bought several items that totaled about $30. Went to the register and paid for it.....in quarters! Walked right to CS and asked to return it. The CSR said "would you like to have that return put on your Target card?" and winked!

She did this 5 more times....and each time they giggled a little more.
Now...when she started, she was taking about 10 minutes of payroll time from 1 CSR. When she started going through the lines paying for change...they had to open up two extra lanes!LMAO LMAO LMAO
The manager was fuming. She thought she played his game really well!

Try the straw sippy cups that is what I did. They have the straw sippy cups that are non spillage. They get a similar sucking sensation that they get from the bottle.

Quote from shopgirl24 :
jewelry for the most part is not resaleable once it gets returned to the store. earrings definitely not, because of hygiene issues and most stores will not even do returns for those. and definitely not anything else that comes back without packaging, scanning upc, pricetag, etc. as for having to just throw it away - the particular vendor my store got higher end jewelry from did not accept returns from us. therefore yes, we did have to scan it out as defective, break it up into pieces (so people wouldn't want to steal it from our garbate) and throw it away.

back to the jewelry question though. overall i would never recommend buying jewelry as a gift for someone unless you really know them well. so much jewelry comes back just because it was an unwanted gift. doing this alone would cut back on so much damaged/ uncredited merchandise when it need not have been so.
WOW! I never thought of that! I have often given jewelry as gifts for Christmas or whatnot - I mean it is never high end jewelery ---- I am talking the cheapers stuff - I *think* called costume jewelry -- you know like the sterling silver stuff or hypo allergenic stuff? I would always give it with a gift receipt and never thought of the prob the store might have if the folks returned it! Thanks for the perspective!!!

I think it is nice if stores would take back makeup - I have to admit I am such a lame girlie girl that I basically never wear any make-up and I think the stuff I have is old stuff from Walmart - you know just some mascara and lip stuff. LOL My daughter cringes! She likes that powder stuff - mineral stuff you see the commercials for but that is CRAZY expensive! Anyway - good to know on the make-up front.

I like to think that it helps save some people from asking the same questions that have already been asked a dozen times, but it's hard to tell. I know it has helped a couple. Smilie

And no, it doesn't usually bring the questions to my PM box. Smilie At least not yet anyway laugh out loud

Dumb question, really dumb question, but, hey, at least its actually Target related! Are the Pizza Hut bread sticks only available at Targets that have a Pizza Hut or are these available at just the regular snack bars?

(Heck, if you can buy ChiChi's and TGIF in the frozen food why not PH in the snack bar?)

Just checking though - if you have purchased stuff and your total was - for argument's sake $70 and you need to return an item that cost $12 would you still do that - or is your rule that you return nothing EVER! I generally don't return - but I have one return I would like to make at the moment - it would still leave my total at almost $60 but should I just not make any returns ever on principle?
Oh definatly! I just meant my own, since my totals are usually lower than that. But that total and that return sounds great! Smilie

Quote from Christine1227 :
Any one know if Target stocks the Hershey's Kisses Orange Creme candy? OMG I bought it during the Easter clearance and I am so badly hooked on it. Drool I Google'd it and found out it's a limited edition candy that's exclusive to Target. IDK if it's limited edition meaning only limited during Easter time or limited edition meaning it'll be around for awhile but only at Target.
Dang, I donno, but I loved 'em too.

I tried to use an internet coupon at my Fareway and was told they do not accept printed coupons. Perhaps each Fareway is different?? Confused
