Quote from MommyToTwo :
ok so I got 3 cans of pringles and used a .30 MQ (when you buy 3) that was in the newspaper, BBF was with me and she used the same Q too, anyway when the Q scaned it showed up as giving us $1 off not the .30 it did the same thing for her kinda odd, But a good odd! .
Sorry semi OT, WM had the jalapeno flavor for .50 cents it was in its section and not marked though when I got the receipt I noticed. The MFQ would make it .20 cents or even overage with your case. Maybe the flavor is being discontinued I will scan it at T and see what it is ringing up and report back Wink

WOO HOO I AM BOLD !!!

What are you using your cover girl Qs for (from the 5/18 inserts)? I have a few TQ $1 off cover girl and $1 or $2 MQ. Any product recommendations (or good deals)? Smilie

[QUOTE=NCmommy;11389939]Very sorry about your brother but a couple of things.

First, posting in ALL CAPS is considered yelling on the internet and it is not polite.

Second, nobody is really jumping down your throat. I'm sorry you feel that way. The poster offerred up coupons as a thank you to some of the people who have helped him/hr on the boards. You were more than welcome to pm the poster to see if they wanted to send you a coupon, but you really don't fit the bill as someone who has helped him/her if you have no posts.

I appreciate that not everyone here can help all the time. I for one am usually shopping with my 19 month old and can almost never post about clearance or great finds because it is all I can do to get in and out of the store without ending up in a straight jacket. But I try to help by sharing other things, such as what happens with the coupons I use or hypothesizing as to whether a certain q might work a certain way or helping figure out what order to put things or coupons in. Nobody expects you to always be contributing but if we see you post a few times then we will realize that you really are here for the long haul to help out with the deals.

If you really are here to help find deals, then do it. Don't hold grudges because the only one you'll hurt is yourself and your bottom line.[/QUOTE

a. I'm not holding a grudge, just stating an opinion based on what I've sometimes seen here. b. I didn't know all caps meant yelling(sorry-I wasn't yelling)
c. I'm having a really tough time right now with people not being good/kind to one another-although I'm sure she didn't mean it to be nasty. So many people/doctors were so unkind/lacked compassion for my brother & our family & I'm overly sensitive these days because I miss him so much-he was only 44 & so handsome & kind-he always treated people with kindness& respect and I just wish some others could have given Bob the same courtesy.

Well, I guess it was time. Seems like fights were breaking out almost every two weeks, but it had been quiet for about a month.

First, I apologize for coming off rudely if I did. But I started on these boards (yes, as a lurker) in March of 07. Joined in August. In that time, there have been MANY MANY people who come on, post once (IF THAT) to get something for free and disappear.. never contribute a thing. And here was a good Q and I saw you with 1 post asking for that Q.

I am sorry for your tough times. I have lost 3 family members to cancer and know the pain. I am sorry for your loss. Please jump in and join us all

So We're out of town right now and of course I NEED to shop at the target here - but the airline only allows us 1 bag each so I'm wondering what I should buy since I don't have a lot of extra space. How do you guys that travel a lot handle this dilema?

I did convince dh not to bring a lot of diapers b/c I wanted an excuse to go to Target!
The airlines allow one carry on and one personal item on the plane. You can also check one bag for each person. Do you have kids you can check bags for? I travel, but don't buy too much on the road. I mainly clearance and peelie hunt.

I have, however, bought things like granola bars and fruit snacks. Take them out of the boxes and you can fit a whole bunch in a suitcase.

Pretzels, with all the peelies in your suitcase, I wonder what the airport security will think if they ever search YOUR bags? EEK!

LMAO Last weekend I flew to Indiana to meet up with family for my cousin's graduation.

I brought with me one of the several Reynolds Handi-Vac sealers I've acquired lately to give to my sister.

As I packed my suitcase, I put the sealer in there, and then thought, hmm, now what batter-powered device does that look like?? (To the untrained eye, of course.) LMAO

So I wrapped it up in the little piece of cardboard that the instructions were on so there wouldn't be any questions. Wink

On the way home, I found that the Evansville, IN airport is the only airport I know of that searches each and every person's bag-- and they make you stand there and watch while they do it. EEK!

I was really glad I'd already given the sealer to my sister-- I could just imagine the series of questions I'd be getting if it was still in my bag.

[QUOTE=NCmommy;11390676]I will say that last weekend I bought 2 glade candles and one glade spray - put both glade candles first on the belt and the glade spray at the end. I was using one bogo glade candle q and one bogo glad spray q. I was hoping the first q (glade spray) would auto adjust for my glade candles, which it did and the 2nd q (glade candle) would auto adjust for my 2nd glade candle or beep for price (which I would then tell him the price of the glade candle to input). But the 2nd q - glade candle - auto adjusted and removed the glade spray. So, I'm wondering if maybe it would be better to put the lowest cost item (the one you would least want auto adjusted) 2nd. I didn't have any other coupons to attach to the glade candle that didn't auto adjust so that isn't what caused it.

I did that on Sat with febreeze, I had two big ones and a small one and put the smaller/cheaper one last and it took off the price for the cheapest one.

Can you mail it to yourself? Or does the mailing cost offset the savings?

And if you're not coming directly home, you can mail it to me and I'll hold it for you. Pm if that sounds ok and I'll give you my mailing address.

Hope you're having a good trip! Are you surviving without a cvs? Is the Targeting good?
