I had to jump in here with my opinion on dollar store brand pregnancy tests, the ones I bought were wrong every time. When i bought walmart brand, it showed the correct response. I was pregnant and the $ store ones showed negative. Equate showed positive.

Hi everyone! Just popped in to weigh in on the PG test issue - I used to work in a rural health clinic, and had a very long discussion on the whole issue with one of our docs since DH and I were TTC at the time - what he told me is that the tests all are looking for Hcg - Human chorionic gonadotropin. If it's there, it's readable - if it's not, it's not. He told me that the dollar tests have the same ability to detect as the other tests, and didn't understand why people spent so much money on the "fancy" ones. I took his advice and saved a ton of money (I used to buy them by the dozens)! HTH someone!

Hi All, I'm heading to Naples, FL for a business trip on Wed. Does anyone shop the 2 stores there (one ST, one reg)? If so, do you know how coupon-friendly they are? Please PM me. Thank you!

From Coupon Information Corp [cents-off.com]
When does a fraud occur?
A coupon is valid only when presented by a consumer to a retailer in conjunction with a purchase of the brand, size, and quantity of the product specified by the coupon. If submitted in any way other than that detailed by the issuing manufacturer, a misredemption occurs. Misredemptions can constitute a violation of Federal and/or State law.
...
I hate that they call it misredemption if the coupon works exactly as coded without beeping. One could argue that a beepless scan (without K1) means the product matches the coupon specified by the coupon bar code. This is just IMHO and definitely not saying this argument would hold up in court or anything.

By the above definition given by the CIC, if I buy 2 Head and Shoulders and Tide, Bounty or Charmin and use the H&S BOGO (no beeps), my receipt could be used as evidence to show that I'm guilty of fraud despite the fact that I bought 2 H&S as indicated by the written text!

Everyone should be careful. Too many posters having issues lately,I've spoken to a few by PM. They are getting more cautious. Definitely no spicy and nothing that isn't for the intended product.

I don't use spicy or the other large questionable but I'm certainly going to be more careful from this point forward, not worth the trouble.

Now for their etq's, still nothing they can do about that as it's not MFQ, it's their system malfunction. I think. Who knows. Maybe Dutch12 should start reading up on it.

Speaking of misredemption, some people just really tick me off. There is someone on ebay selling at least 20 lots of Thomas the Train coupons x 4 each. It just struck the wrong chord, and people like her are the reason this promo is going to get cancelled. *sigh* So I reported every last one of them to Ebay. Smilie Made me feel better, anyway.
