I'm off tomorrow and I'm so going to Target!!!! I need to call a store and see if they found my dd's shoe...perfect excuse to go!

Ok...they have the wet jet in the ad for $17 and i saw it at a T for $16 on saturday...wth??? Ok. so at the $17.00 price with the tq and the mfq it would be 10.50....is it worth it??? I've been eyeing them up for months, but I'm cheap and I could buy a heck of a lot with 10.50 so it needs to be worth it lol.
I like mine and I am sure I paid way more than ten bucks for it. You still need to do a hands and knees scrubbing once in a while, but the swiffer takes care of it pretty good in between.

I also want to add that considering that you can get the refill pads and juice for cheap, that makes this an even more worthwhile investment in my opinion. Go for it and let me know how you liked it.

I had a nightmarish visit with customer service too over my flameless bogos getting not entered on my receipt. I ended up getting refunded $12, so he basically split the difference with me, but I am still pissed about it and makes me hate T a little. They think everybody is a freaking thief and are suspicious of everything.
The Wentz return people at Target do for sure! I suspect they must have have had real fraud at Christmas or something the way they act, and now they are taking it out on someone who wants an honest price adjustment. I think they are silly to worry about the small things like your few candles, or my $5 price adjustments. They have bigger things to worry about, like getting their system working better overall. They need to fix it so that you can still get a PA even if a coupon was used.

I did notice however, that Kohls will also reduce a PA if you used a coupon during your purchase. I don't know exactly what the system does, but it is like you get penalized for using a coupon during a non sale, or lower sale. For example, I used a $5 off email coupon for some napkins. Then they went on sale for $1.50 each. I should have gotten about $2.50 in price adjustments ($ 1.99 - $1.50 new price x 5) but because I used the coupon my price adjustment was under $2. The lady said it does that when you use a coupon. What made me Mad was that I could have waited to use the coupon and saved more money, since the coupon was good all month. I guess don't buy anything with a store coupon unless it is on a great sale, and you are sure you will not need a PA. Unless you have more of the coupon to rebuy if you have to.

So...I got a call from the manager at wm about my crappy run...and basically I got a whole lot of excuses! She said cashier's are hesitant with coupons b/c of coupon fraud and them getting in trouble bla bla...I said well I get all of my coupons from the mfr website or the sunday paper but I would like to know which ones to avoid.....she "didn't have them in front of her." *Sigh* So basically the rudeness wasn't addressed at all and wm sucks. She said they didn't take ip's for awhile, but now they do. Uhm okkkk then make sure all of your cashier's know dumbass.

I think I'm gonna get the wetjet today!! you've swayed me smartshoppr lol...right now i have no mop so the only time the floor gets clean other than spot cleaning is when i get down on my hands and knees....so hopefully this will do the trick. Does it leave a sticky residue at all???

If you dont see meanymore its because my 15 mo old gave me a heart attack. He has discovered climbing. He pushes toys over to my TV center that has shelves and climbs up them. I have pulle dhim down twice already. I gave him a new ball I got a Target the other day to distract him, thankfully its working.

On another note we live on the 2nd and 3rd floors of my building. The baby's room is on the 2nd floor and he has 1 window. Our place is older so all the windows have shelf ledges on them, which my cats love, but it also makes it a great place for a toddler to climb up on.

Anyone know where I can get some kind of window guard? I looked at Babies R Us and they didnt have anything. The online stuff is for these metal bars and they were 50 bucks each. I am usually always in the same room as him, but you know accidents happen in a split second. I am esp worried about his room and if for some reason he got out of his crib and the window was open, sigh. I also dont have central air and have no idea what I will do for him when the summer comkes to keep it cool

Thanks for any ideas and help!

I am a long time lurker and was always too nervous to post anything. I have 15 of the $10 off Electronics purchase of $100 or more coupons. I would like to send them to the first 15 people to pm as a thank you for all of the deals you have passed on to me the past few months since I've discovered this thread.

tHANK YOU FOR THE OFFER-i WOULD LOVE ONE-BUT i DON'T KNOW HOW TO RIVATE MESSAGE
Does it irritate anyone else that someone who has never even posted is asking for something someone posted as a thank you for the deals that have been passed on to her? Uh hey dude...you have to actually contribute first!

Can't remember if it is folks on the T forum that are looking for cheap Bush's Baked Beans [too many updated threads!] Anyhow, WAGS has the Bush's Baked Beans; 16 oz; Assorted; for 79 w/their circular coupon. Limit 3.

Oh please watch your little one carefully. My Sister in laws sister's little one climbed an entertainment center with shelves and had a TV fall on her head. Luckily she was ok, but she had quite the knot on her head for a while.

My older daughter used to climb on the back of my sofa to reach a little nick nack shelf box to play with the little toys she said. I finally had to take it down after half the nick nacks where broken and before she broke her neck. I saved the good nick nacks and when she was older I let her have them in her room.

Hey has anyone else noticed that the expiration date on the $10 oral b coupon is 6/31/08?? Does anyone have any idea why the date would be this way??? TIA!!!
That is funny, one day DD (13 yo) was helping me organize coupons and found on a Pepsi MQ that they spelled Sierra Mist incorrectly, it read Serra Mist EEK! . She is the best proofreader. Perhaps one day she could get a job proofing coupons Rofl2

I just received my Certificate and it expires July 13, 2008.

Has any one used their certificate at Target? If yes, how did they handle it since it is in the form of a check?
