Dont you hate it when you want somethign to eat and you dont have it at home.

38, yes I have 38 boxes of cereal, and thats not even all of it, and damn it (stomping feet and throwing a tantrum) all I want is Rice krispies.

The thought of paying for cereal is sending shivers down my spine.

I settled for Lucky charms, but the baby likes them and so I have to share, he likes to steal all the marshmallows.

Might make a run later tonight if my headache goes away
I can relate! I am bad and eat the all the marshmallows too!laugh out loud We keep gifting our bf who is single tons of freebies. Yesterday he told us to please stop! He has no more room to store anything. We will just add more things to the church and Salvation Army donation bags. I have had empty cupboards before and am grateful for what we have but.... I am at home ill today and none of the food here appeals to me.shake head I hope that you feel better.

I do the same thing! Then dh rubs it in!nod Mad I hope that the newer $5/50 posted works. When I finally make it to T Saturday I am not planning on getting any Pantene or hair color. I know I should but I do not have all the Q's and just want a small stress free run for once. T's 93/7 ground beef is the best I have found around here. I am really craving one of those delicious .99 bear claws . I hope that someone buys them all before I get there since I am wearing one on my left thigh now!laugh out loud

OT though has anyone had a Manager Override at Walmart from coupon usage? I used the same coupons I always do and they were all legit not expired for the exact items and the BC $60 and AC $13. I was weirded out since this has never happened.. The manager though came up put her key in and the register tape printed it was no big deal though didn't know why it happened! Any Ideas?!
If your coupon total is over $40, manager intervention is required at WM.

My kids feel the same way about the Pop-tarts, and other junk food that they had wanted. Now, looking at the stockpiles, they don't want any of them and asked for something else.

My answer: "Wait for it to go on sale, then Mommy will buy them for you, by the skidful." Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

My craving for junkfood diminished everytime I look at bags and bags of the same thing. Reversed psychology?

I'll steam open the envelope, take out the coupons, and put "wrong address" on the now empty envelope back to you. laugh out loud

1.00 off any honey maid bees, sticks or min smores graham crackers
save $3.00 on 2 coke multi packs when you buy one hunts ketchup and two packages of hebrew franks
the upc is 574956110088 for anyone interested I have a TON of these (don't worry I left plenty for others. They expire 6/15)
1.00 off kraft easy mac...we don't eat this so if you want some pm me.
buy and 3 smuckers toppings get 1 free
1.25 off 2 smuckers
free tostitos dip when you buy two tostito's
2.00 off ten pepsi 2 liters
free 12 packs of pepsi wyb 4...I tried to grab a few of these BUT i'm like 5'2 and couldn't reach the freakin thing so the pepsi guy came over and took it down for me...didn't think he would be too cool with me asking for like 10 -15 of them!
FREE kraft cheese when you buy two nabisco
free produce (up to 1.00) wyb two kraft dressings (I have a TON of these and am willing to share)
1.00 off reynolds wrap except 25 ft...these don't expire until 12/31/08. These were on a display they are a recipe booklet....simple everyday recipes volume 2.

I'm sure I found some more but those are what I can find in my purse right now lol.

My DH pulled one of these on me last night. I was at Walmart...instead of home cooking Evillaugh and he calls me to tell me that I need to hurry home, they want pizza but don't know how to order it Confused WTF you don't know how to order it??!! He said well you do it online and always find a coupon code. So all of my savings at Helly went down the drain to pay for farking pizza. Couldn't they have just had leftovers? LMAO

So I was out of town on business today, and thought I would stop in to KMart since I don't have one here, and I see a girl with an envelope of coupons, a basket full of nail polish, and a cute baby. I glance again, and the baby looks like one I have seem on here. So I finally go back to that aisle, and I ask her if she is on Slickdeals, and sure it enough, she was laugh out loud

LMAO One of my first times at the SCO was similar to this. I just left my stuff there. It is a great thing though, once you learn what will work at the SCO!

Hi Gator!
Wow, you recognized a baby, that's funny! I'd love to see another couponer at one of my stores. First, it would be awesome to meet someone else like that, and second, I'd feel a lot more comfortable using my Qs knowing I'm not the only one around here! That is very Cool that you met her. If it's GatorCator, I'd love to watch her do her Target runs. And then do some for me. Smilie

This computer update is going to drive me crazy. I bought 6 of the same type/formula Pantene shampoo. I gave the clerk six $2 coupons. Yet the receipt groups the shampoo into sets of 2 and applies one $2 coupon to each set. It's as if the other 3 coupons disappeared even though I saw them on the screen. However, the final total gives full credit for the 6 coupons. And how did they come up with the refund values of $2.12? [I've attached a copy of my receipt.]

I guess it was a good thing that I was pressed for time and didn't study my receipt at the store. I would have been freaked about my "missing" coupons!

Good Grief! Now I have to use extra brain cells to figure things out. Smilie
