Well, don't think I'll ever get caught up! After being gone for the weekend, I come home to find out DS, who is 15 (he decided to go live w/ his Dad last summer) AND diabetic, decided he didn't need to take his shots anymore. Long story short, I've been at the hospital for the last few days. Between trying to catch up w/ everything around the house, I missed the last 20 or so pages of the retired deals thread and am only on page 10 of the new one. Also behind about 40 pages of this one, though I did just read the last 7. ANYWAYS, what I need to know, since I haven't had Target time in almost a week and have about 20 p10 qs left, is: will the $5 etq ring up expired on friday or saturday, or do we know? I'll shit my pants if I have to try to use them all in one day, especially since I have 2 houses to clean tomorrow!

And to all who sent me envies: THANK YOU!!! I'll eventually get reps in to you, but haircolor will come first! AND I'm having a garage sale this weekend! Can you say CHAOS? I think there might still be one or two people that I promised envies to that I haven't mailed out yet either, I'll try to get that figured out soon.

So sorry about your son - I hope everything turns out okay. Teenagers are tough sometimes aren't they? I have a 16 year old who lives with his dad too!

We believe the p10 coupon will show up exp on friday. Someone will have to be the guinea pig on that one, I guess, although there was at least one person who reported they were able to use certain exp coupons PAST the 30 day mark - so it is always ymmv.

Many of us are having luck doing multiple transactions in a row at the same store. I haven't done more than 3 in one store at a time, but it works for others! I have about 14 left and thinking of trying to hit 3 stores tomorrow so hoping to use most of mine then but not counting on it. Good luck!

That is so funny! The guy with the plugs said he wanted to combine all my giftcards on my Glade candles around Christmas. He is so sweet. And then I remember something about him giving me advice about trying to get price adjustments and stuff. He was very coupon friendly.

I'm sure I have had the other guy you are talking about as well, but can't picture him in my head. I know at this store I went to a younger guy once I thought for sure would be a Jedi and he was the cashier from Hell. Even my DH said what the heck was his problem? I said he must not be getting any!!!! Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin My DH husband said I guess not! Confused

Yea. the cashier's there other than the jedi are NOT coupon friendly! I don't shop there unless it's very legit or i get the cool guy.

Sooooo....does this make anyone else goEEK! EEK! EEK!

Two of our friends are getting married in august and dh is in the wedding. Well, we get a phone call tonight and apparently the bride's sister is throwing a surprise couple's shower and it's, I kid you not, $50 a person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uhm ok people I don't know what parallel universe you are living in but I am not paying a $100 to go to a freakin bbq/shower. Mind you, this is the type of family where the money was put aside years ago to pay for their daughter's wedding. So please tell me what kind of freakin bbq are they having that they expect people to pay that kind of money. Dh told me and I told him well don't plan on us going. 8 hours later we are still marveling at the nerve of this.

I shop at Target quite often (well for the deals) and haven't run into anything different which is why I asked about this update.
I follow the target threads on another board much more closely (as they are seperate topics not one huge mess of topics) and havent seen anything about the update there, hense the reason for asking here.
Wow I'm really surprised you are not reading anything about the update anywhere else. It has made things at some of my stores very different. Coupon use, the way the receipts look and print, even the rain checks. Plus the return policy has changed as well. Many changes with the updates. I'm glad to know I read a thread that discusses these important issues then.

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...EEK! 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 dateshake head....nuff said...hug
I agree it is quite obvious!

OMG I can not believe this, that people would get mad that I did not post the stainless in the WIKI. I was the original poster of it and posted it as soon as I found it, however, I was camping and on my laptop at the time and was only checking in briefly to read and stay up to date.
I appreciate your post, and wish I would have had more time to use it, but we got 5 kits. Our Targets had them, but not Wallys.

yeah, what is wrong with chinet? My store had no peelies last time i went so its not a deal for me but what's wrong with it? its acrtually the first non hush hush legit deal i've seen in a long time Wink
My Kmart had the peelies still for the free cups (that break if you so much as look at the pack), but they expired 4/30/08!

If you buy the Crystal cut cups shake your package lightly first to make sure their are no broken pieces already! I had to return/rebuy two packages already that had broken cups!

Quote from ArielA :
Yes, it does. I have never heard that taxes apply to shipping charges though. I expected to pay tax on my on amount of my item, but not for the shipping amount??? Just weird.
VS does this on shipping, drives me nuts! I can't believe I finally read all the pages of the Chit Chat and regular thread. Boy miss a few days and you have a lot of catching up to do!

Worked fine for me. Did not ask for price. Did you use the right amount of Q's for the item you were purchasing and was it the Febreeze spray bottle Q???

OH, and I posted this in the WM thread but don't know if you all get over there but I wanted to share with my BFF T buds!!! Wanted to point out for anyone that has the $1/1 Big Bag Ziploc Q....that I found clearanced Ziploc sandwich bags 25 ct near the registers for .40 each. I've heard that these go NICELY together! Can you say, OVERAGE, I knew you could!!! Yahoo!

No they were up front in one of the checkout aisles near the magazines (only ONE aisle had them though). They were marked clearance of 5/$2 so $.40 each.
