Hey All! wave

Just wanted to add also about the Kraft magazine that there is also a $1/2 Caprisun item in the mag too. It's on it's own little postcard!
Mine didn't have the Capri Sun but a postcard for a FREE Kraft Singles Saver (well you gotta send in 1 UPC and $1.99 not so FREE in my book).

Sorry in advance for all the questions Trang!

Are the buddy bars part of the J & J deal? Does it have to be all on one purchase? Also is the carefree part of that deal or is that just a separate good deal? Thanks for the info - geez, why am I asking - I don't have time to shop another store!!! 2 of our local grocery stores are doing triples right now plus I'm trying to use up some CVS ecb's that will expire next week - we leave Sunday for a trip to Washington for the week where they have no CVS!!!! Thank gawd theres a Target!!!
Quote from Thrifty-n-SoCal :

Why the hell can I not find the Rite Aid coupon. Please direct me I am Helen Keller with this one!


The J&J sale this week is only with the 4 products listed + Carefree.

I went to another Rite Aid yesterday and we looked through the ads and COULD NOT find the $1 off in-store coupon. However, the sign under the products says the final price is $1.99 after $1 in-store coupon - so the cashier had to put in the sale price for me.

This morning, I stopped at a Rite-Aid near work and grabbed a few ads that have the $1 coupons, just in case. In this ads, there is no Carefree deal and there is no sign by the products either. Confused So, now, I'm wondering if this is regional... for the Carefree BOGO.

I met with Pretzels last night. 1st of all I am jealous, she is young, tall and thin!

I had a good time and hope she did good. She will be back just in time for the after Christmas sales!

I had a great time! It was nice not to just sit in the hotel and to be able to finally but a face with a name. You were so nice and sweet! I will definitely be out here again and we can go out again.

You are all way to nice to me with all of your comments - very sweet! Smilie


I am now sitting in the Philadelphia airport (oh yeah - and my flight was cancelled). I have several hours to waste. I'm trying to convince myself that I love airports, I love airlines, and I love rain. It's not happening very quickly by the way. I have felt sick since I got out here so I can't wait to get home to my bed. Hopefully the plane ride will go very smoothly!

For any of you expecting coupons - I mailed out huge stacks on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday before I left. I will definitely get the rest out tomorrow from the past couple of days. If you sent me coupons, I will be getting them tonight and I am SUPER excited to get home and get the mail! I am going to be totally excited to go to Target this weekend.

Trang and doublesided - I can't wait to get together with you guys. We definitely need to get planning this thing. Too much longer and I'm going to have to rent out a storage unit to store stuff for Trang. Smilie J/K - You know I love it - don't mind at all!

I keep mentioning it to the client but they're not ready yet. Then one day they will turn around and want me out there the next week.

It's raining here so it must be there too. And it's really gray. I hope it clears up for you. Can't tell you how many times I've been stuck at that airport. Hence my new years resolution to try to avoid USAir at all costs. Except Monday, I have to fly them Monday.

There's an OK cheesesteak place down the wing where the massage lady is. I think they only take cash though and I never have any on me.

Ask them if they take Target GCs.

Hey - I can be ready ANYTIME! You just let me know.

It is raining and gray here - has been all day. Hopefully they don't delay flights like Chicago does. I fly American - I don't know if I have been on an on time flight in the past year.

I live in the suburbs - there is one right by my house too. We can definitely go there!

Quote from doublesided :
Jen I know you don't like confrontation but if they don't take a coupon, you need to have them take it off at the register if you can't afford it. I always leave the first one alone and start taking off at the second one as I know it will be downhill from there. To each his own, I know some people prefer to return but IMO, that's $ out of my pocket for nada.

Yea...I don't know what my problem is, I'm not a wimp or a pushover in any other area of my life.....so I need to suck it up on the being a coupon wimp lol.

My dh put a lot of things into perspective for me after I got home all upset from WM....he pretty much told me to suck it up....for every one bad run think about all of the other times I walked out of wm or t with $100 worth of stuff for $5-10 lol. Sometimes I have a hard time of thinking like that. He just couldn't believe that I was gonna let some cashier make me cry...in my defense I have had one of the longest crappiest week's I've had in a long time!! lol


Here's a question...has anyone ever had a BAD experience with meeting sd buddies???

OMG - I hope not! I don't think I would meet up with someone that I hadn't exchanged a lot of messages with and that wasn't a regular poster. I wondered that too - but it is so exciting I can't help myself now! Smilie

I wouldn't do it unless it was months of communicating, a regular poster and someone knew where I was going to be just in case. You never know these days----you could get there and there's someone with a gun. Scene:

sunny day, meeting behind target parking lot in Washaoo, USA

You pull up in your Lexus
They pull up in the ford pickup

You get all excited
They are not smiling

You say hey, great to finally meet you
They say, I know who you are and where you live. Hand over all your coupons now or I'm going to turn in all these documents to AP

You hand the stuff over, cry in your car. They pull away. You go in to print more off the kiosk. The end. Wait, no, you have to rat them out to us.

Unless they're ax murderers! EEK! J/K

Jen, you don't have to be a pushover to gently tell the cashier to take certain items off your order. Make it a sob story of how you thought you had enough $$, but it's now over what you had budgeted.
