Target pulled a fast one on my receipt tonight, a MFQ is missing.
Did you add it up? Is it part of the diaper deal? I bought 2 diapers, 2 wipes and used 4 mfg coupons. It only shows two on the receipt in the little grouped together box but when I add up my receipt it is correct. This new system sucks!

Give me your number, lol

Tell him how cute it will be when the little one does stuff. My guy learned to say nana (for banana) and apple because they are both in the fridge. Or when your guy brings over the pot and spoon and offers you a bite.

Seriously even my hubby said it was worth the $$$ just for those 2 things alone
My kid just throws everything though. Can be the most educational toy and he'll pick it up, carry it around for a while and throw it. Except for those flashcards, although he throws them too after we're done learning about the number. Those were a great buy.

So we shouldn't return it?

I am positive, it's just gone. On the screen it took off one of the wipes, on receipt the coupon just isn't there. Not in the grouping, not on bottom. Gone. Kaput. Finito. De nada.

Well I of course vote for keep it. Also it has a good resale value on Craigs list.

Oh and I have a thrower too. And his new thing is to kick his legs, like slamming them down, when I am changing a diaper.

It is not accounted for, it's gone. Done. And it scanned fine.

ha mines been doing that for months. Here's a tip, give him something to hold when you first put him down. He'll examine it the whole time. I keep a bunch of stuff on top by the changing table--thermometer (always good for inspection), baby powder, the stickers from the huggies wipes, etc etc. Anything he doesn't usually play with or that's not a toy. The kid was fascinated by the nose suctioning thing the other day. It works.

Did you take batteries out of toys before storing them for his 3rd bday? Someone on here told me to do it. Seems like a PITA so I put it as a monthly resolution so I'd attempt to get it done. We keep looking at them wondering what's the best way. I mean, you don't want to attack the packaging so it's not a present anymore---just looking for ideas. Mostly Thomas stuff with batteries but some others in there

Yep! such a wasted time to scan 1 coupon, hit 1 button, and repeat... this happened only with the coupons, not the products. However, I had over 30 coupons, so it took awhile.
They only had 10 left today, got those. Wonder how quickly they restock. Well if Steph finds them at her store, I'll just give her my coupons. She's getting the treats too!

I got a bag of birdfood today with the overage, it worked out perfect. I really don't ever go to kmart, didn't even do it for the buddy bar deal but this seemed like a no brainer.

The store is really gross though

No, crud I havent taken the batteries out of any of that stuff. Thanks for all the work I have to do now.

Oh and I do give him stuff to hold, and he throws it, or pushes it down towards the diaper area.

I will try and make a toy list soon for all of you guys! My little guy is 15 months old, but I also have a 14 YEAR old, so I have been there done that.

Doublesided, I also have a colapsible tunnel, that he loves to crawl through. He has a ball with that thing.

Oh and hopefully, cross your fingers for me, we are hoping that we get a positive HPT tomorrow. If so I am going to have to get some diapers, anyone know of any good dealsLMAO

BTW, do you know who I can rep for putting together this deal... I think I remember... but want to make sure I get it right... thanks!
kathybeany and crazy4vs posted the coupon links, I did the scenarios first but everyone pitched in thereafter. Kind of hard to work up complete scenarios for this deal with all the coupons being so YMMV for people. I have really had no problems though. Got 9 today.

I'm thinking I remember someone asking about ants recently.....here is an email I received:

Ants don't follow each other; they follow a scented path known as a pheromone trail. If you spray the trail with Windex or any glass cleaner that contains ammonia, the scent will be destroyed. If you can find the source, pour a big kettle of boiling water into the ant hill. That will eradicate the colony and give you relief until they figure out how to rebuild.

[QUOTE=doublesided;11630420]Weird. I just made sure on the run I did an hour ago that my total was under $1, it was .34, no mgr approval needed. They said it's their new system, if it zeros out, needs a mgr.

It's getting to be a hassle to go there. But as long as they keep paying me to take away their merchandise, I suppose I'll stick it out. Must go back tomorrow, more ECB expiring.

QUOTE]

I had a .02 or .03 cent overage on ecb tonight paying for a C*S order, and the kid adjusted it for me so it came out as 0. He's definately not a manager, and he told me he did it. I said fine hon, not a problem (I'll take my $30 or whatever of stuff away for 0 oop anyday lol) and thank you. My stores have been fine about everything, CVS wise, in NE PA.

After my T run and my messed up attempt at the WAG Gilette RR deal (I got 10 things of shaving gel for $1.20, so I really shouldn't complain about not getting the $5 Rr, right?)
made it to the mighty K. Smilie

No doggie Qs here, oh well. Got 4 gi-normous tubs of Fresh Step, and 8 various Max Factor makeup items. Whole thing got a little messed up by the fact that the register lane I chose had a jammed catalina machine (luckily I thought to ask first) so my big plan to buy the $50 Gc for the Hulk tickets and use it to pay for the rest of my stuff was stymied. But I was still pretty happy-- ~ $20 for 112 lbs of clumping litter. Went ahead and did the GC deal later at another register.

I did two transactions for the $5 discount, and I noticed something about the Max Factor B1G1 Qs-- when my first transaction I had four items at 2 different price points, the cashier had to enter the prices (but no beeps or problems). On my second transaction, I had four items all at the same price point, and the Q auto-deducted.

I know this doesn't help anyone now, but something to tuck away for future reference. . .

I used 2 $5/50 on my $89.24 run today.

Quote from doublesided :

Same here, but a $5/50 vanished at one store today. Receipt is easy to add, it only 8 razors and 3 gatorades. He scanned the $5/50 first, I saw it, but it's nowhere on the receipt and it adds up $5 short.

Next store I used two of them in my order, and saw them both scan, and they're both on receipt. That was a LONG receipt and not one missed coupon!
