dd is great fun, just not in the store. Yesterday I decided to keep it simple....go to k look for the overage stuff and el cheapo clearance and sandals for dd for our zoo outing today (cancelled, stupid thunder storms!)....she had 3 tantrums in the 30 minutes we were in the store!! I walked out with nothing b/c for one their stupid food court only takes cash and for two there was a bajillion people in there and lines were like 4 people deep with full carts...so we just left *sigh*

I did find refills of the clean team soap for 1.24...there are q's for $1.00 off so .24. They were marked 2.49 but rang up at 1.24.

OK for those of you who CVS, WTF--my store said they got an update and now if you're paying with ECB and your total goes to zero you have to have a manager come over and sign off?????

I don't read the CVS threads often, I pretty much just do my own thing but I think when I scan I would have seen this. Anyone else experienced this? The mgr had to type in her numbers and everything
I haven't gone to zero there since they stopped giving crts!!!! but I am going to run by tonight and get some smartrinse and toothbrushes. Going to exchange for the ecbs from the previous run, so should be even and zero out. I'll let you know how it goes.

man, i wish we had a cvs closer than 35 miles away lol. It's just not worth it to me to spend the money in gas esp. with ecb's have exp. dates. Heck, when i do walgreen's i sometimes let rr's expired and i could walk there in 5 minutes lol.

Already done. Thanks




I was just thinking the same thing. I missed this one, or didn't pay attention to it. Teri or MamaRo, Can you please refresh our memories and spell the deal out for us? Thank you!!
Hi DM, just got in from work and saw this, don't know if MamaRo explained, hope it's not a repost though. Some KM's have Pedigree Jumbones samples for .20 cents a bag. I had q's, for 1.50 and 1.00 off. I know the 1.50 ones I got from the May issue of All You, and I also ordered some off ebay. The q states off ANY bag. I have not had any problem using them for overage. KM also sells gift cards, AMEX, Movie theatres, prepaid phone cards, Sears, etc. So a good way to use the overage if your KM is yucky like mine!! Inside each bag is a 1.00 q, and in quite a few of my bags there were 2 1.00 q's because they were stuck together.

It's definitely not worth it these days, IMO..hopefully things will pick back up in the fall and they will have some good promos and actually give some good q's again!!

My closest anything is 22 mi, but I drive up there daily during the school year, but sigh, once a week during the summer, and I will be gone for 3 weeks completley in the middle of summer.

I do have two CVS, really close and 3 Walgreens. one CVS will take any exp CVS q, so I don't worry about the exp dates.

Pity Party table of one.....

Just need to whine. I hurt my eye last night, and by the time I got my contacts out I was miserable. I broke down and went to the Dr and turns out I scratched the cornea and the conjuctivis.

So I am off to Target to get 2 scripts filled with NO Gc q, and do a mini run. I dont have any diaper q's yet, so I wont be doing that tonight.

On a good note I am off to cut q's with my SD buddy and have a night out!
Sorry to hear about your eye! Crap, that sucks!!!! Just look at this way (sorry about the pun) it could be worse, I guess!!!

Hope they're still there. I got a 6 foot table for free (thanks to Pedigree Smilie )for my FIRST stockpile yard sale tomorrow. I am thinking of pricing razors 3.00, shampoo/bodywash 1.50, I have tons of gift sets, robes, etc from c*s that I don't even know where to start with the pricing!
Well, I'm actually sitting in my garage right now on the laptop (during my garage sale reading SD...how pathetic is that). I decided to do something different since I had to work today and had my sale 5 pm to 8 p.m. Not such a great idea!!! Only had about 5 different groups or so but at least everything is set up for the 8 a.m. opening! Glass half-full I always say!

Exactly, because unlike me, you wont have to get up at 5:00 am to put the stuff out!

Worked fine for me at my store. Even trade, product for ecb, no manager needed. Maybe it's an update that hasn't hit my store yet.....

Hey Guys -

Since this is more chat related I thought I would ask here ....

First of all - how on earth are y'all doing the Pampers deal??? I tried twice today and was told NO WAY NO HOW! I had the $5 GC first with the 3 sets and those beeped but they put them thru ... then a few other items ... then we got to the first $2 TQ and it beeped so they said no and refused them and I didn't have any of the $2/2 MQ so I threw in one $5 37MQ which went thru - but then they got to the last $5 off when you buy the 3 sets and by now they were PISSED! So they said no you can't use these either and started arguing about a couple of other coupons I had so I left --- is it just me --- am I doing something wrong?????

Also - completely off topic - my Maytag oven had a fire in it last night ... exciting :/ Anyway, the electronics are shot --- or burned up --- so I have to buy a new oven/stove ... anyone got any suggestions for a SD??? Luckily we have a micro so we are ok --- but at some point cooking again would be useful! LOL

HUGS - D

Unfortunately this deal is gonna be YMMV. I guess technically, they they can refuse the $5 wyb tq, since you already used a TQ (the gc one) on the pampers & wipes.

To be beep free and totally legit...you would use either the $5 gc tq or the $5 wyb tq and 1 of the $2/2 mq. You can try to get 2 of the $2/2 mq's in, but again, that's YMMV on the cashier.

Not sure why your 2 TQ beeped. It was the expired 06 one right? That shouldn't beep and shouldn't be trying to attach to anything.

Yea...I looked at the diapers today but I didn't wanna go with any beeps, so I passed. Plus etq's don't fly here and I just can't wrap my head around how to get such a low oop. I don't *need* diapers, but would like to stock up for next baby (whenever that happens)

I went to k....no $.20 dentastix at this one but i found a boatload of healing garden and calgon for 1.07-1.77 so overage.

My cashier choice was an old lady or a middle aged lady who escaped from the 80's. Went with the 80's chick. Took the 6 q's for calgon and healing no problem, got like $6 overage there, but refused to take my max factor q's.. and some clearanced cg eyeshadow rang up wrong, but I just didn't feel like dealing with...still an ok deal just not fabulous.

Does anyone else ever feel like they are buying stuff, just to buy it?? Like, did I really need 3 more bottles of pantene or more razors???

God, I'm a loser...i'm sitting here playing solitaire refreshing sd every few minutes b/c I have nothing better to do.

Yes - it was seriously weird!! I had 3 Pampers ($8.99 each) and 3 wipes ($5.99 I think) and like I said it started beeping with the very first $5 GC when you buy two??? I had three in my pile because I had 3 sets. Then when I got to the first $2 (yup the ETQ) it beeped -- I kid you not. It didn't say expired it said - item not found??? Then by the time I got to the the 3 $5 off it was just a no go - at all! There was a security guard at the second store - it was a BIG fiasco! He wrote something on a clipboard - but I have NO idea what???? I had 3 BOGO choc MQ's and 4 bags of choc so they were ticked about that - I did get my coupons back this time --- once before they kept them. But I didn't get my goodlife cat food either Frown

LOL I know what you mean - but I really DO need diapers! LOL I never did the Pantene or the Venus - but if I could have I might have! LOL And NO you are NOT a loser - just enjoying the site Smilie

MamaRo & Teri - good luck with your garage sales tomorrow!!!!!

Hugs - D
