Quote from Devilmomma :
I had a horrible run tonight at WM SCO.

This is the 2nd time I tried the P&G q's there, and they don't work anymore (at this store). Mad I get a message to place the q aside and a cashier will help you. Luckily I only bought 2 P&G items because the same message appeared last time I tried it. I thought maybe it was a dirty scanner or a fluke, but nope. They must've done something to their system at this store. Dontknow

My coke q's and movie q's would't scan either. Mad

The place was packed, huge lines. OOP was $62. OMG I returned the coke and 2 P&G items. DD's movie is going back (she was NOT behaving in the checkout), but I can't return DS's. I can't exactly tell him he can't have it because mommy's Muppet q wouldn't scan for his Rescuer's DVD. shake head

It wasn't a total bust as I did get a few things with q's that my T doesn't carry, but I am done with P&G at the SCO. I'll stick to T for them.

One of my SCO has been adjusted, and the other one still works. I don't use cws anymore, but I did get the other kind of Crest with Crest coupon. At one of the sco the coupon can have the one bar code still covered and work, but not at the other one.

Had a great Target run $123 down to $30, with buying a $30 dress (got $10 in GC). This is a best for me I think. The only expired I used was the grocery $5, and I gave her two party, but I think she scanned it 3 times.

Went to 4 Walgreen's, and had pretty good luck; however, some of the stores are programming the computers to add back the $5 even on MQ's. EEK! The manager went ahead and auto adjusted, and still gave the $ off, but I don't think I will try the deal at this store next time. He said that this is something new, because I told him when I used the $10 off $30 it worked fine. He was so nice, and he said see you next time, very nice treatment. I just don't think this is fair as coupons are money, so if you don't use coupons, you only have to spend $20. However if you use coupons you have to spend $40 before coupons. The other three stores didn't do this. At the last store I went to, the maybelline lip gloss was .20 cheaper a tube, and I wasn't thinking, so my Snickers wags coupon took my total below $20. The register voided my $5 off and we tried to add an extra Snickers on, but it was still messed up now. So the girl just took the $5 off, because she knew with the second candy bar I was above $20.

I have been shopping since this afternoon, Macy's, Target and the Walgreen's. I am going to try to get DH to take me to another wags before midnight, he didn't have to go on any runs with me today. I forgot some of my coupons. The Nivea Mens after shave Balm was a great deal. The $4 off in the paper worked for 2, which were $10, then you got a $5 RR. So not bad $1 for $10 worth of product after RR's.

I am not crabby today, even thought the ortho adjusted my braces and I forgot to bring and Ibuprofen with, so hurty all day, but my great shopping made up for it all.

Also someone told me today that the Febreze took off for the second product on the belt. I haven't used that coupon since it expired, but I know others have. Usually it took off for the first P&G on the belt, so this is something new.

I found PONDS PEELIES TODAY!!!! I had only found 1 at a Target far far FAR away from here, and had given up on them at my closest T's. Went to KMart to do the temptations/pedigree deal and another hulk ticket catalina and just happened to be going down the bath/beauty area when I spotted the ponds double-packs of facial cleansers. Snatched 3 peelies!!! Whee My kids completely do not understand my excitement at such things! But we haven't been going to the movies because it's too freakin' expensive! So free tickets means we can actually see something in the theater!!!!

Yeah - when your stash is out of here maybe I could add a few in. I guess that falsely represents what is actually mine! He doesn't understand that the reds ones aren't mine and can't be counted! Smilie

Would it work to give the ES coupon first, then the bogo coupon? I'm going to be in a town where the only store is KMart. I haven't really been keeping up with the K Mart deals because I don't have one nearby. I only have 2-3 of each coupon insert so I don't have access to a lot of coupons. Is there anything I should look for while I'm there? Any great tear pads or peelies? Thanks so much. I was supposed to be camping near Wisconsin Dells this weekend, but it's under water. EEK! My sister camped out in a Walmart parking lot last night and she didn't have any coupons! shake head What I could have done with a self checkout and a 24 hour Walmart! laugh out loud Now I'm on my way to Waupaca with one lonely K Mart store.

There are a lot of blinkies in my stores (Kmart)...also check for Pond's peelies there. I found a few...I also found some booklets with Hawaiian Tropic coupons by there products ($1 off any). I think this is what it would do if you used the es first vs last

$1.59 (in my stores)
1.59
BC= $3.18
-$1 es/2 = 2.18
-bogo =1.09
OOP=1.09


1.59
1.59
bc=3.18
-bogo= 1.59
-es=1
OOP= .59 (if the es doesnt beep...it may because the bogo takes off the price of one. I bought 16 at a time so I dont know if this will beep on just 2)

No problem (and I'm not looking for reps, just trying to help ya) - you can't rep in the lounge (chat). If something is rep worthy you have to find the person in the main Target thread.

Oh, and I am safe. I walked in the door, said to my boss (who my DH has done carpentry work for her before) "I know a carpenter if you need one" She says "Call Mark right now and tell him you are safe... go, go call him!". I didnt lose hours or anything. So we will make due. Hubby has gotten 2 jobs so far tonight from friends at work who need stuff so it will be okay. I will just keep cutting coupons and drop stuff if need be
Glad to hear you are safe. I would bet your husband can find lots of jobs doing carpentry work. I would love to have a good handyman, DH & I work too much & really need someone to do work around here for us. Bet you're too far away for your DH to help us though. hug

Does anyone know what happens if you buy beer at WM SCO? Does the cashier have to intervene? I also asked in the WM thread, but thought many of you would know.
The machine halts and the attendant has to come over and check your ID. This is also the case for spray paint, "R" rated movies, etc. The age check is programmed in for any items that have an age requirement in order to purchase.

I've heard of so much trouble with the P&G at Walmart. I'm still ok at my stores, just used them tonight. Also used the $3 Coke, though the smaller version someone posted wouldn't scan. I scan the HUGE one and insert the small one. I'm always prepared for trouble now each time I use the 37000 $5 at SCO though.

Went to Target for a few things. Had Wheat Thins, Zyrtec, Gatorade and a Sterlite tote. Had Qs for all except the tote. Handed them over to the male cashier who looked about 12. LMAO He scanned them but as soon as he saw the Gatorade he told me they were for gallons. I had the 32oz. which I've been getting by with. So I got those Qs denied. It was odd though, he wasn't reading all my Qs, so he must know about that one, or they've had a talking to. I'd expect this from the women cashiers but not the young guys!
