Those pledge citrus wipes don't have a pleasant smell. I'm sticking with the regular ones. Just a random comment.

Really? My brother said no to a breathalizer and got put in jail. Bwahhaaaaaaa
Beathalizers are different. You automatically consent to one as a condition of having a drivers license in most states, and if you deny, they can hold you for a short period to try to get a search warrant, and regardless, you lose your license, even if they don't get a search warrant.

Dutch-is it an implied contract when they take the coupons from us as part of the sale and close the transaction? I mean unless you're using fraudulent or copied coupons, they can't do anything for using their own ETQ's that they accept, right?

He's going to paypal all of us a bill, I know he is

SO as promised...here's a quick update on my MIA status...

Apparently my ex decided while I was waiting to move to Florida and start our life together, it would be a good idea to join various online dating sites--using my money of course. We had a joint account (I know, I'm stupid) and I was putting a little money in each week to save for the move and whatnot. I didn't bother checking on it because I had no reason to worry right? Well $3,000 later and dating websites and whatnot, I found out how dumb and wrong I was.

I just keep smacking myself on the head...I'm totally one of those stupid women you see on Dr. Phil and Oprah who go on and on about all the money they were taken for and whatnot...luckily I got sick of his bullcrap and ended it. And before I could close the account, he sucked it dry...

SO I have just been busy feeling sorry for myself and whatnot, and I still havent gotten the internet (or cable tv) started at the apartment...because there is just other stuff I've done instead...but sooner or later I will have both and will be able to chat again.

Thanks to everyone for helpful PMs with random deals that I would have missed out on otherwise, and thanks to my Target shopping buddies keeping me up to date with Qs (andreasss and smurphy)....

NOW back to work!
We miss you!!!

I honestly don't know if mine has had it or not. Well actually, no I don't think it has because I used more than 3 Lipton coupons yesterday and they all went through and all are on the receipt.

I don't use any etq's from 06. Unfortunately, expiration dates are one thing that is drilled into their heads here and I don't want to ruin a good run by using them.

I think the update is a little different at different stores. I got 20 little bags of coffee today and all accepted the TQ, yet yesterday when I bought 4 gatorade, NONE of the ETQs showed on the receipt even though they did scan and did appear on the cashier's screen. So, go figure.

I am going to just throw away all my ETQs because my stores are starting to actually look at the dates before scanning and it is becoming not worth the hassle to me to pay for crap that seems to go through during the transaction then isn't on the receipt at all. If it would just not work when they scan it then I could say to take the item off the order, but the way it is doing right now, it is tricking me in to buying it thinking I am getting the discount when I'm not. So, I think for me, I am pretty much done with expireds.

I have about 15 Swiffer hangtags (tried to give them to Katwoman but someone is already giving her some). I also have quite a few Pledge peelies. I would LOVE to trade someone for any of the following: Digiornio, Capri Sun, or Reynolds peelies, Ken's dressing, Bush's beans, CWS, joint juice. Please PM me if interested.

That is how it is in our state as well. Even if you have not been drinking or not over the legal limit, if you refuse the Breathalyzers you will be arrested. I guess as an after thought you really don't know if you are over the legal limit, until you take the test if you have been drinking anyway. That is of course if you didn't get a drink spilled all over you before you left the bar sober only having drank soda. That happened to my friend years ago, and she got pulled over. The officer said Mam have you been drinking, she said no of course since she had not. The officer said step out of the car, and said you have been drinking I can smell it on you. She had to take the Breathalyzer and drunk driving tests or be arrested. She chose the tests, and boy that cop was surprised when she had no alcohol in her system, then he finally believed she had a drink spilled on her.

I think my store has one of the more sophisticated updates.
I bought 2 Bounty, 2 Tide to expensive crest toothpastes, and a lot of of other things. I gave him 4 CWS and he scanned them all, none beeped and 2 are on my receipt. I have to return the expensive toothpaste now. Did this happen to anyone else. My two coupons attached to one Tide and one Bounty.
Thanks for all your help.
