1. which "uh yeah, that coupon" are you talking about?
2. Which certain money of q?
3. Which giftcard deal?
That is how most of the conversation here is. The paperclip is flooded with q's but you don't know to go there if the deal isn't mentioned.
How come the scotchbrite FREE stainless steel cleaner kit coupon was never put o nthe wiki? Was it ever really discussed? The word stainless was thrown around enough times for me to look in the paperclip for that coupon. I found it. It expired yesterday. I got my 5 kits. There were no more in my store.
Alot of the target conversation is done in pm's. So it is VERY hard for someone that ISN'T here 8 hours a day, to find out what's going on. It can take an hour of reading and a pm or 2 to get the gist of waht is going on.
If this would be any other thread (say, cvs) where someone would pop in and ask a dumb question, i'd understand when people don't answer their question and say something like "read the wiki" or "read the thread". Bc everything is in the thread. But in the Target threads, that's one place you can't acuse someone of not doing their research. Bc if you're not in the 'know', then all the research in the world doesn't matter.
Sometimes people that never posted in here waltz in with a question. How do you know they haven't spent hours reading before asking? I say that, bc I was that person once. After over an hour of reading I had a question. I got yelled at right away. For not reading. well hells bells, everyone was discussing that certain spicy sauce, and pardon me for not realizing what exactly that is and how it worked.
Another time I was accused of being a male target employee. Bc I posted the same day someone from the breakroom site posted. This is the reason why people don't post here so much. But when they do, they're not newbies.
So that said, if you dont' want to answer questions, don't. But to yell at people and assume whatever you want, don't.
I think you have some valid points.
I also think a lot of the cloaked conversation stems from the fact that a high percentage of the Target deal sharing that goes on here is shall we say.....of the shady nature? So, perhaps that is why things are so hush-hush and people speaking in some foreign code language.
15 no prob. You can do that in one store. Line em up on belt, First 8 transactions, then go back in and do another 7

That being said...the deals we are getting will cease if every little thing is spelled out in the thread...simple as that...they are reading..they are catching on..its quite obvious...
We have a PM function here...don't understand someones post...ask them...in a PM...simple....I would say 9/10 I get a response ...very nice and helpful people here but there is a time and a place for everything...As for that number over there
<----------- its nice and all but last I checked it had no face value or expiration date

If people are concerned that they can't keep up with everything, they are reading too many forums, etc, then maybe priorities need to be thought of.
I finally made it to bed last night around 1am. Why? B/c I got home, spent time with the kiddos, put them to bed, hung out with Hubby, unloaded, put everything away, and caught up on the thread. Also bought some more cpns, and did a bit of looking around at other sites.
Garnier, there is not certain solution. The Target forums have been like this since day one that I began reading over a year ago. I do think a lot of the nonsense questions could be in the form of PMs, not asking the same Q over and over and over.
Oh brother.........
