Exactly. My issue w/this is, if the store manager has a problem w/a customer wiping them out of a particular deal, deal w/it w/ THAT customer-- don't let them do what they're going to do, then punish everyone else who comes later. Mad

And while I in principle agree w/Cartman, I try not to be the person who totally wipes a store out-- unless of course they had only a few to begin with, or it's the last day of the sale, or. . . well you get the picture. Cool

I also did gifts again for Teacher Appreciation, which for us was just the first week in May. So today, the last day of school, I decided not to bother with anything else.

Maybe that's why the one of you who mentioned you teach 12th grade now gets nothing. By that time in kids lives, parents are so tired of teachers who don't even acknowledge gifts that they don't even bother.


Well then those teachers need to get on the ball!!!! I always wrote a card thanking them for anything plus was always scrambling to get them to them quickly on the last day of school as chaotic as it always is!! So no heart for the jr high and high school. Sucks! Sometimes it is nice to be acknowledged from anyone considering we are educating them for their future endeavors! As I wrap dd's gifts for her elementary teacher!!!

I had 2 of the P10 coupons that were BOGO and I didn't even use them! My store analyzes every coupon and it's so stressful to shop that I haven't been to my Target store in over a month! I just feel like they look for a way to deny my coupons, plus I don't have a lot of MQs to use. I admire those of you that got so many gift cards with the P10 deal. I did do alright with the last Pantene deal because my friend & I went to another Target in another city and found peelies. It was so much fun to see those giftcard balances increase! I still have giftcards left and I think I only made about $120! Same for Walgreens when they had the buy 9 items get $20 RR. I made about $60 on that deal! I know I could order coupons, but right now it's too hard. Maybe during the summer. I just want to thank all the regulars for posting those great deals. One of these days I'll get my courage up and back to Target. Better TQs would help too! Lately they've been pretty crappy since I don't have a ST.

Hey, I found this site from FW too looking for Black Friday deals!

Anyway.. I went straight to my boss today as I couldnt attend the meeting. I told her (see, she REALLY likes me... partly me.. partly to get to my DH since he does carpentry work for her Wink ) that if she knew something, to please tell me.. I have 4 young kids to worry about. And DH and I are BOTH worried about our jobs.

She told me that the hospital does have to make a closure plan for 3months out because its required. We are not closing. My boss said she needs me and I am not going anywhere. If anything, I will lose 4hrs of pay which DH will make up because he can work until 3:45 and I will go to work for 4. But my job is secure and even if the hospital closes I can collect unemployment for 6mon... Well I guess I have to wait it out. Hubby talked to his friend who is a VP and was told "You are worth your weight in gold, you arent going anywhere" So as long as our hospital does not close, we are okay for now. I will continue to budget and put as much away a week as I can

That's great news....Clap Yahoo!

megan do you have any oxy clean in the house? i usually just pour some water over the spot. mop it up with a clean rag, blot not swipe. then i make a paste of the oxy clean if that didn't get it out and let it set for a little bit maybe like a half an hour or so. then add a little more water and scrub it as necessary and it usually all comes out. good luck with it. i have had MORE than my share of paint mishaps around here. too many would be artists!

okay that's good but in the meantime, if it has already hardened scrape off any excess. dilute it with water a bit. or try some tide with bleach in an inconspicuous (spelling? LOL) spot. its late laugh out loud
another option might be Greased Lightning cleaner. or zout cleaner that we all got earlier this year.
