I agree with Pretzels, it should get an easy K1...just annoying. I'll stick with using 1 bogo per item. I'll miss the $5 etq next week. That was a very nice coupon!
At least it's good through the end of next week right?!

Logged on quick before getting baby. They did! Turned out he lived here, other side of town. That's the worst part. Think it would be easier if he didn't. So he scared the bejesus out of his neighbors kids (school was in lockdown and didn't let out till late) and the whole town for absolutely nothing as he didn't get anything and will be in jail. Farkin idiot.

But safe to go out to target today so we're all good!

Pretzels.....I'm coming up there for a wedding in July....I'm seeing some Target trips!! You guys have super t's right??? I have dreams about super t's and the groceries I could get! lol I actually talked to my dh about it for like 10 minutes last night....he just kinda got a glazed over look in his eyes.

Here's another question....has anyone ever had someone ask for their coupons BACK?? This girl I work with always gives me her inserts after she gives me the q's she wants and I'm extremely grateful for that. But i was showing another girl at work a cg lip gloss i got at wag's and she was like oh, I like that. I'm gonna need my cg coupons back. I was just like uhhhh ok. I mean they were hers to begin with I just thought it was wierd...it was like a week after she gave me the cg coupons.
What if you had already used them? Confused

We do have Super Targets - 3 really close to me! That's what I visit most. Definitely pm me and get my info so we can hook up. Oh no - hopefully he starts to warm up..... Smilie
I dream of Super Targets, all we have are regular Targets, and maybe a few Target Greatlands. The Greatlands I am told are halfway between a regular Target and a Super Target. However, the one Greatland Target I go to has more things, but not always everything the other Targets have.

I am by no means a "pro" at all, but I have to say the posts I find the most annoying are the ones that say, "I don't get this. Explain it all to me in a PM." Stress

Well, those and the ones that ask a question that was just answered two posts above. Crazylaugh

I'd pretty much always be willing to answer a *specific* question about a complicated deal, if a person has read and tried to figure out something on their own and still doesn't get it. I mean, I think we've all been there. nod




Um, I think I'd be like, "Sorry, I just used those last night." laugh out loud


No way are they asking for their Qs back so they can do a deal that *you* just showed them. Geez.
And what if you really did? You can't really expect someone to give coupons back. I think it is a bit rude to ask for things back unless you really need them. However a clothing item, appliance or furniture maybe (if the person wasn't using them anymore anyway I suppose), but a coupon doesn't make sense.

I guess Jen wanted to give the coupons back to keep her coworker happy, since they work together, and so that she doesn't quit giving her coupons altogether. Right? nod

PHEW, thank goodness they found him. Glad you guys are safe.

You mentioned a lockdown, our school had a lockdown a few weeks ago because there was a bear spotted in the area (about a mile or two away). They wouldn't dismiss the kids on the bus or otherwise without a parent's permission. Elementary school kids didn't get home until 5:30 that night!!! (Good thing I picked up my DD's at school). It turns out the bear was harmless and didn't really MOVE from where it was spotted. I realize that they have protocol for lockdown but I think everyone was laughing that this was over a harmless BEAR and not a REAL dangerous situation. LMAO

So where is it 3:30 in the morning still, according the the clocks on the post. I am central and it is 6:30. I thought California is 2 hours behind, so it would be 4:30. What timezone is SD?

My greatland is 10% higher price than other regular Targets in area with no additional freezer space

Yeah no kidding. No one was laughing here. Lucky they had the protocol for it though

OMG, I am so farking pissed! 2 weekends ago DD had a Renaissance Faire that her class was hosting at the school. DH borrows a canopy/pop-up tent from a friend, the the school needed to borrow. After the Faire the tent was in the classroom all nicely packed in its case. DD tells teacher that we are coming to pick it up Tuesday after school (5/13). DD wheels it outside the door in the courtyard at 2:45. We get to the school at 4:30 and it is freaking gone! This school is gated and whoever took it had to wheel it past the office. Now THAT my friend is big ROCKS! We worked with the janitor to get in the classroom, the janitor's office and checked the lost & found.

Nada! Ranting Head Bang Crying Help

So now I get to spend my hard earned GC's on a freaking replacement tent for our friends. They have been texting DH like crazy about it since this weekend is a holiday!

This sucks!
