I think skibumintahoe was looking for some in the last week or so over in the Target thread. I'm not sure if he/she still needs them.

i had 2 great runs...1st run BC was 200.xx AC 27.xx with $10 gc...the AC should have been still lower but i had h&s b1g1 and i forgot to get the pampers scanned first....i was so excited to see my jedi that my mind stopped working....but not complaining...2nd run i had to put together at the store coz my DH called and said he wanted some pain med and heat wraps....now i cannot get just these 2 items...so threw in some overage items, some dvd, math went totally wrong and total was going to zero..pulled back the sheba tqSmilie...could have got gc and continued but the line behind me was getting bigger and they were short staffed today....

my goodlife tq always beeps....does it beep for everyone else..i am getting the 3.99 bags...also the quantity trick worked...i accidently gave $5 wyb before the $5 gc..when she scanned the $5 gc it just asked the value of the coupon and thats it...no k1 needed...now have to put together runs for next week....my ds fell yesterday and bruised his knees and i realised it's time for me to stock up on first aid Smilie.....so bandaid and neosporin this week......also noticed that the kelloggs start smart 2 for 5 has been extended till the end of the month...

It's never beeped for me. You are lucky if your bags are still 3.99. . . They've been 4.89 here for a long time. Still not complaining, free kitty food is Smilie .

I just let out a big gasp, and almost cried

I only have 3 pampers coupons left. Thankfully I have more coming from ebay, but still. I didnt think I was going to do this many diaper deals!

Is it just me or did the $2 Pampers ETQ start printing gigantically? I found the 4pp in the paperclip, but it won't let me resize them, and they are taking up alllll of a page?

Quote from megnsamsgrace :
When I emailed the seller that she is selling altered coupons, here is her response

"I did not alter anything. My friend gave me this coupon, and I am just selling
them to make a couple bucks to buy baby necessities. All I am doing is printing
them up and cutting them out. And I used this at Target yesterday at their guest
relations desk and specifically asked the woman if this coupon was for real.
She looked it over, said yes, and then I went on to make my purchases. I even
went onto the fake coupon website to make sure before I posted this. It is not
like I am making a million dollars on this anyway. Just trying to help other
peopl save money and make a couple bucks myself. Do what you have to do but I
have covered all of my bases. "

Geesh, the nerve of some people!
okay so when I messaged her, i said she likely wasn't aware it was altered because it had been sent through mass email (sounds like apparently that is in fact how she got it).
but i also pointed out key points that made it undeniable the coupons were altered -

"purchase" not capitalized
"purchase of $25 or more" is not centered beneath the "$5 off"
barcode matches exactly that of the $5/$25 target toy coupon.

i basically said, okay.. you probably didn't know and it likely wasn't you who altered them.. but here's the facts. you do know now that the coupon is altered and therefore illegal, so take down your lots before you cause other people to get in trouble. (and also informed her that all those lots had been reported Wink)

needless to say i didn't get a response at all. i was sooo expecting to get flamed. maybe she got your message first?? laugh out loud
in any case, all 8 of her listings are gone; banished.


oh yeah, and i just reported 2 more from someone else. this one doesn't even show the barcode on the coupon. As if that's enough to trick us. shake head
i'm having all kinds of fun on ebay reporting people with this coupon lol i should have figured this out sooner. LMAO

to all the people who don't know any better and are bidding on these, we're here to save you! Numchucks



as for the 4pp pampers coupon, it prints out just fine for me. yeah, it's a bit larger than 'regular' target coupons and thus less discreet.. but i used 15 of them (at different stores) yesterday with no problems. i love my targets. heart

I asked this in the other thread, but hadn't received a reply yet, so I thought I would ask here.

When is the Pantene Gift Card deal going on till? I went to buy some today at one store, and the sign was still up for the GC's but it said until 6/14, so I didn't get any. The Pantene was also marked down to $3.29 from $3.79. Does the GC sale vary from store to store? I would try another Target tomorrow if so.

Edit, I found a post that said the gift card deal ends 7/14, so either I read the sign wrong or it does vary from store to store. Will look again tomorrow.

Also about the $5 off 3 Target coupon. Does anyone know if you give your Manufacturer's Coupons for the listed products (the ones the Target Coupon is also good for) first, will the Target coupon beep?

The Pantene & Perfect GC deals are until 7/14, as noted in the WIKI. This info is from the sign at the store.

The RULE-OF-THUMB for coupon usage at Target, with no beep, is "MQ 1st in descending values, then TQ last." (please see my siggy for this rule)
