Iagree That is the ONLY cuss word that I don't say laugh out loud I am a sailor's dd, but there are somethings even I wouldn't do shake head

I think I'm starting to understand what DH means. I thought it was Dear Husband,but, in light of recent events I'm leaning toward a rather unflattering reference.

Ladies, I learned a long time ago that you are superior to us in so many ways. However, the learning curve is beyond sharp and some guys never get it!!!!

I recommend you hit him with a line akin to : We have xxx years to live at this stage, and near the end it doesn't matter who was right and who was wrong, it easier to have fun than to argue. If he still doesn't get it............... Shoot him!!!!

So I never expected that trying to make a light hearted post about my bad cashier experience would end up how it did...

The Slickdeals version of Internet tough guy had to call me out I guess!

My run was tame compared to what others have posted about the Qs they use. Guess I'll need to start adding detail... I used 2 TQs for general mills fruit snacks as well as the .50 off 2 coupon from last week's insert, a bricks coupon for arm and hammer fridge things for $1 off 2, insert coupons from this week, etc etc.. I didn't even use any coupons for the Kellogg's deal! Shocking, I know.

As far as peelies go - funny that I'm singled out for this when others are trying to trade pond's peelies/figuring out how to get more than 4 for a household. Want to know which one I took? Yep, ONE lone peelie! The try me free strawberry rice krispies... attached to the box I bought Smilie

I may not be getting the slickest deals, but I am doing what others have advised us newer ones to do - stay within our comfort zones Smilie I just hope my little more of an explanation at least makes it seem like I'm not a ... well you know what Wink

If you want to discuss my post further or have any questions/comments/etc, feel free to PM - I appreciate those that already took the time to do so Smilie

Mama me and dh have "stupid" arguments too...it's always about the dumbest stuff and I get all upset and dh is over it in like two minutes. Drives me nuts!!

I'm sorry, I kinda gotta giggle about the whole c word. It just doesn't bother me.....there's a couple of us girls at work and it just doesn't matter to us. The way I see it, if someone is going to call me name....does it really matter which name it is??? It all means the pretty much the same.

Sam, Pay no heed to the neighborhood nitwit that showed up to take you to task. You are the furtherest thing from what you were called. That person has issues and none of them have to do with you. With a little luck he might have got himself banned for his trouble. You keep going and forget about this little bump in your Targeting. It had nothing to do with you or your run, someone was going to catch this venom and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Keep up the good work!!!!!

Hi, I have a favor to ask you guys. I know that some of you have taken advantage of the Hulk kmart ticket deals. Once you have the catalina what are the proper redemption steps?? What do you give to the theatre to redeem your tickets???

Hi, the catalina gives you a PIN code and you go to the website (should be on the catalina somewhere, I'm forgetting what it was now) and enter the code, plus your name and addy.

It gives you a PDF (and emails you the link to it) that you print out. It has a bunch of numbers on it which apparently function as a credit card payment which is applied to the cost of your ticket.

We just have a B&W printer here at home so I thought the tix would look really sketchy but the guy at the theater knew just what to do. It took a while b/c he had to enter all the numbers but no problems using them.

Ok, I was 99% sure this is what happened. We have this guy that has come up the past two weekends trying to redeem the catalina and I explained to him, no we can not take that last weekend...so he came back up today and I have to call him back tommorow....he says he called kmart cs and they told him to bring the catalina to the theatre.....ugh!! chances are kmart cs has no idea wtf he is talking about and are telling him whatever he wants to hear.

We have redeemed a lot of those in the past two weeks....why is it most people can figure this out, but he cant??

I don't know anything about S&S or how their registers work (are they affiliated w/Albertsons and Jewel?) but w/these type of deals I've found it's always YMMV. If you are lazy and risk averse (like I am Smilie ) you can wait around for someone else to try it out and then report their findings on the board.

Sometimes deals like this will work on regular prices, sometimes on sale prices. It just depends on how it got programmed in.
