strange happening...
I honest and true gave on extra dove 3.50 coupon that I meant to give. I meant to grab a body wash...and I was looking at them, but for some reason forgot to actually grab one. anyways, I had that coupon in the stack at register time. Looking over my receipt I start to realize that I forgot the body wash. SO looks through the bags and confirms. Strange tho..I remember seeing her scan the 3.50 coupon..it came up item not found and she K1d it. The coupon is NOWHERE to be found on the receipt either. Not a problem..I don't want to give an extra coupon for an item I don't have, but I would of taken the coupon back if it wasn't going to work. Not sure what happened there, the coupon is defiantly MIA. Even though it acted like it went through after she K1'd it.
Also, I went to make a return from last time..a couple items that my coupons wouldn't scan for, so they wont take them or even try to scan them more then once. They tell me that it will go on my visa. I said..huh? She said visa gift card. hmmm.. I told her I paid with a target GC, but that one is long used up I don't even have it anymore. She then says she can give it back to me on a new target GC with no big deal, which was fine. SO maybe thats it..the target GC are coming up as some sort of visa GCs?
noticed that our chicken strips, icy combo also went up in price here too. SO was kinda sad about that. That was his favorite deal that he discovered for himself.
Got home and had a little visitor. Someone found a 4 mo old puppy wondering the streets, tiny lease broken off. Dirty, smelly, starving, cute and sweet as they make em'.
Guess it had been wondering the same street for a week now but nobody claimed it, so they dropped it off by me. My other roommate got upset by the commotion...it was a mess. Frown anyways.... Tiz the busy season for animal rescue. (*nudge* hey target, a current pet printable would be nice.) Happy thoughts we figure something out for this sweet girl.
planning my deal for next time. I'm so excited. No coupons for venus or gillette deal (do to pay day timing to order coupons) but I do have the revlon coupons and I'm a freelance makeup artist..I have a lot of loves from revlon..it will be the funniest trip ever! yay!

I hear ya, dh is the same way... I swear he hates coupons. Well at least now he'll turn over coupons he gets and crt's that print for his card at cvs...

hate to complain but its gotten harder and harder to get the deals as well.

Those things all sold very well at my last garage sale a few weeks ago... esp. the alavert since it is allergy season and those meds can be expensive!

laugh out loud Actually, my DH has tickets to game 7 (that I got for him!), but my dad and brother don't, so I was hoping that my dad could see them hoist the cup since it might be his only shot to ever see it. Sadly, he didn't. And DH isn't willing to give him his ticket to game 7 laugh out loud I don't think I could ever use that many coupons to get that high of a total, but I am certain in awe of those of you who can fit it all in Wink

And I would have believed you!! The mail takes soo long sometimes, I would have been waiting for a month before I said anything laugh out loud hug
I did a trade with one poster, she confirmed getting her envie from me, and I didn't get mine. Finally, after a number of weeks, hers arrived. It looked like it had never been touched by anyone - no postmark, crush, tear, nothing. When I PM'd to thank her, she told me doesn't really have confidence in her local post office, and should have dropped that one in the box in town when she went to go shopping. Said since it would be a few days before she got to town, she thought it would be ok. So some folks in the country also might have PO troubles.

Quote from sbhiggins :
*snip*

I'd honestly way rather give stuff away (good feelings and good karma) than try to trade a lot of the time. All that wrangling over terms and then waiting for the stuff to come and then feeling like you got "cheated" if it doesn't. . . bad for the soul.

Note: everyone I've traded w/on the T thread has been awesome though. hug
Amen! Iagree

Quote from teri037 :
I don't have a kitty, so I don't know what is a good deal. I'm having my first yard sale this weekend with all my loot from C*S and T. Keeping my fingers crossed I'll sell alot, otherwise I have about 100 razors to give for Christmas presents! Not to mention enough shampoo, dish washing liquid, garnier, etc etc etc to supply a neighborhood!!
Debating about a yard sale with all my loot. Did see a post awhile back with a warning to not put all of your stock out at once. As I recall, poster said people didn't even want to pay a reasonable $1 for nice shampoo when they saw there were 100 bottles for sale.

Quote from jeanharlow :
seriously? it tastes great!! my kids all love it. i actually let them pour about 1 TB spoon or so on their waffles and pancakes. and , i swear to GOD, they were not sick at all (just a few minor colds) this past winter.
i say drink it up. teri!!

and thanks for explainging the km deal, too!
hug I agree! Any time any of us even remotely felt bad, I would give out 1 - 2 TBSP first thing in the morning. And a couple of times when I felt really horrible, I would take a swig morning, noon, dinner and at night. Each time, I felt better by the next morning. And if not 100%, I would repeat it. Considering Sambucol is $11.95 a bottle, and a couple of times I actually finished 3 bottles before I felt better, I LOVE knowing that I still have a stock of this stuff.

One of the PTA ladies about bugged out when I opened a package of Garnier wipes to use for our hands at an event we were working. I told her I could get them cheaper than I could get Wet Ones, so why not. But these days, I am tired of C*S. In fact, I think I don't have any ECBs expiring until 6/9, so I am done for the week!

Quote from Jen2882 :
I did...I think it's gone already.....I'm glad it's not just me that thought it was too wierd b/c it really pissed me off...but all my reasons for it sounded lame in my head lol.

btw.....since we're talking movies go see the strangers!! That movie freakin rawked....i screamed like a little girl and hid my head for half the movie....there is very little gore, it's all about suspense and just plain scary shit lol. I *think* we were a little more obnoxious b/c we had the aud. to ourselves but if other people screaming in movies annoys you...then def. don't go see it lol. And if you decided to anyways...don't complain after the movie that people were screaming in a scary movie!!!
Oh, the previews of that movie even had me freaked out! EEK!

Iagree The previews have me soo scared that I won't be able to watch that movie until its out on DVD and I can watch it in the middle of the day (baby nap time) and then watch an episode of Dora or Sesame Street to calm my nerves Hide


I always do but it now's!! I am way too impatient for the auctions!!!

At my local T last night and cashier was awesome. When she starts scanning my Q's she tells me about a lady that came in and had $500 worth of merchandise paid $12 oop, and took all the razors they had. Managers were not Happy. I think they maybe onto you, whoever did this, at the northwest chicago T new off the 72.

Maybe try to be a little less obvious in your runs, it makes all of us couponers get the stink eye when you do crazy stuff like this. TX!

You are right-- that's way uncool.

OTOH, I always wonder why managers in these situations don't exercise a little discretion.

You hear these stories where after someone does something like this, the manager start "laying down the law"-- like limiting everyone to only one deal per person or something.

Why the heck don't they just tell the person who is being completely unreasonable-- no, you can't buy every single razor we have in the store?? That's what I want to know.

(Probably b/c they are afraid the person will pitch a fit, or, worse, sue them. Sadwalk)

Ugh.....can someone please tell me this horrible stage of throwing huge fits about EVERYTHING doesn't last forever?? my ddis sitting on the couch hysterical b/c I put her hair in a ponytail. Five minutes before that she was hysterical b/c I made her come back inside the house. *sigh* She turned two in March and I'm praying this doesn't laugh forever...because as cute as she is she is driving me crazy!!

Oh and does anyone have any good potty training tips?? I know she's ready...she just won't do it...today she took her diaper off and went off the floor. EEK! EEK! We've tryed a big girl chart....letting her run around without a diaper, sitting her on the potty seat....she just stares at us.

I would like that reassurance too Smilie

I also second the potty training tips. DD2 runs around without a diaper and sits on her potty seat (for about 2 seconds) and then puts a diaper on herself when she has to go and then takes it off throws it away after she has gone EEK!
