I have a couple I received in a trade. Last night I used the $3 off $10 supersoaker purchase. I only bought a $4.99 supersoaker and I don't *think* it beeped. I'm sorry I can't be more positive but the girl and I were chatting away and she was k1'ing fast. But I did try to notice and I don't remember seeing it beep. It is at the bottom of the receipt as $3 TQ. Please post your results if you try any others. I don't think I'll be trying any others til next week after I'm done with the p10, pantene and razor deals but if I do, I'll let you know!
What coupons are these? Do you have a list?

3. $3 off Fisher-Price toy purchase of $15 or more

4. $5 off Barbie toy purchase of $20 or more

5. $5 off Playskool toy purchase of $15 or more

6. $1 off Crayola Chalk

7. $5 off VTECH electronic purchase of $20 or more

8. $5 off Huffy Dora bike

9. $5 off WordWorld Toy

10. $3 off Swim Ways water toy

I want them. But I'll never get target mailings since I'll never use my CC there or any identifiable info. I'm just the short girl who buys a lot of condoms

LMAO I think you've done very well with those condoms!! I never get any coupons from Target either. I don't know how they decide who gets them. I did register there for my marriage and when my son was born and still nada! I have used my cc in the past and nada. We've had portraits done there once, nada. So who knows!

Rosarito Beach was our favorite little place for a weekend getaway. We would always go to Puerto Nuevo for the kickin' lobsters. Makes me Sadwalk

Guess hubby needs to take me to Cabo or Cozumel then huh!
Ok it is offical I told him I know he has a love for the Mexican culture, he has many friends that are from Mexico, but if he steps foot in there, he better call them to get him back into the US because I am not coming down to get him. I am thinking of taking him to Olvera Street next Sat I hear there is a fiesta there that day and it sounds fun. I told him next time we go to Puerto he can come, but TJ is out.

At WM, anything that is priced less than the Q will only beep and the screen will say something like "verify coupon amount $5.00??" or whatever the amount may be!!! hug
That is how it works at my Wallys as well! Sometimes they cashier will Walmart version of the k1 (however it is done there! laugh out loud) and sometimes they adjust it. I don't think I have ever had one turned down, but I haven't used many of these coupons at Wally since the Active Live Cheese for $4.50. I think it was like 75% put in as is and 25% adjusted. Depends on the cashier and store just like Target.

Is anyone else TOTALLY burnt out on these gc deals???? I have about 14 more bogo to use up and I don't even want to go. I want to stay home and spend time with my son and hubby. Why does target compel me so much??? It is an addiction. I think it would be easier if the gc deals ended this week, but then we have the razor deal on Sunday. EEK!
I know what you mean! I only got 12 boxes of the P10 so far, have at least 20 coupons to use and am getting burnt out. I am trying to get motivated to go tonight before the Target coupons won't work anymore! These deals are making me so tired! It also takes time and planning to do a decent run!

Quote from NCmommy :
Are there 8 boxes of P10 on the receipt??? Last night one of my cashiers gave me my total and I looked and only had 2 gc. I asked her to double check to see what had not given me a gc (I did a set of pantene in this run too) and she had not scanned one of my p10's but had put it in the bag anyway. I think this happens sometimes b/c they get stuck on that prompt for gc screen and don't realize it. Anyway, she was thinking "Wow, you would have got free stuff." and I was thinking "I'm getting free stuff either way, but I want it scanned so I can get my gc too." Cool
More than once this week I had to tell my cashiers to please take the last bottle of Pantene out of the bag and scan it. One looked at my like I was crazy. Well I wanted my GC, the Pantene is already free with the coupons! laugh out loud That was the whole point, like I think we have enough Pantene for quite a while!

I had to do that with the P10. She kept scanning stuff after the first one and didn't do the GC. I had to have her take everything out of the bag and recheck it otherwise I wouldn't have the other GC and rest of my q's would have been a mess

Garage Sale:


I marked things super cheap. I know how garage salers are, being one of them. lol
I had TONS of things I bought from CVS; lots of makeup I marked at $1, .50 or .25
Sold almost all of my nail polishes for .50
Pantene only $1 a bottle. Should probably have done $1.50. I sold over $100 in just a few hours.
Durex is NOT a hot seller, even at .25/box. lol Lots of prudes out there laugh out loud
Perfect 10 for only $3 a box and was able to sell only about 15 at that price.
All of the things I bought in the trial section, for .25 (advil pm, pantene hairsprays etc).

Make sure to have lots of $1's $5's and $10's and bags. I had loads of bags but ran out after a few hours.

I'd love to hear about other people's experiences!

I set mine up in my garage for the whole summer, then just put out the sign and open the door when I'm in the mood.....tons of CVS stuff like JoKnee and tons of Target.....live in a poor rural area, so do cheap. Had so much this year that I just sold everything for $1 last week-end to get down to more manageable levels and made about $250......then had so much fun giving stuff away that I decided to pretty much keep the $1 thing going. Had to hide the Durex cuz my 2 10 year old granddaughters help me.....really didn't wanna go there with them quite yetshake head ! (Although, and I hope this doesn't offend anyone and IS OT, girls their age are already getting their periodsEEK! . Think it's all the hormones in food?)

Man all this talk of garage sales makes me want to do one but it is against my HOA rules.....we have a community one every spring and it sux. We get no traffic..they advertise it but this neighborhood is known for being unfriendly so people by pass us all the time.

It stinks...but the other residents heart.
Best of luck on your sales! wave
