I'm not exactly sure how many zeros are in bajillion but I am guessing 50 at the least. laugh out loud I only had 100... but not anymore.Cool

Also I wanted to add that I went to Target with my couponing SIL and there was a really nice asian lady behind her that was super curious about all of her coupons. She kept asking my SIL "Oh, what that coupon for? Oh, what that coupon for?" Then when she handed over the durex $5 coupon she said "Oh, what that coupon for? Oh. I sorry. I sorry." It was so funny. I probably would have done the same thing in her situation. She was probably wondering "What!?! Where the hell did she get a coupon for a d--do?!?!"

I have to say I'm Annoyed over the altered Toy coupon as much as everyone. What is this about a pet coupon that PrincessKelleye posted? Haven't heard about that oneConfused Why do people have to ruin perfectly legit coupons by doing stupid stuff like that ? Head Bang

I'm hoping this doesn't screw up the diaper coupons as well...I have lot's of stockpiling to do for the little guy. nod We do have the original posts of the diaper coupons with the URL's so maybe we should put those in WIKI so people can print to have. Thoughts please?

I agree, I could only find the $5 WYB one... and that is from the Pampers site. I am going first thing in the am to see what our store does but want the originals for proof they are legit!

i didn't even know there was a pet coupon, much less there was an altered one flying around.
but to be honest, i'm not surprised at all to hear pampers may come to an early grave. this is exactly why i was more wanting to get done with my diaper deals in june rather than continuuing through july - just in case something like this happened. i dunno.. things may still turn out all right. but it doesn't make anyone feel too great reading about potential death at the t.

No more toys for you stormy!

You must have because She has close to $1K, I have $800 and others reported similar amounts. Makes it a lot easier when runs go back now, I find it easier to eat the 6 or 8 bucks in missed coupons.
Oh my freakin god....Can I just say that I worship you guys??? Seriously that is amazing. I need to get on the ball!!

I try to catch up on the T thread, but I don't have much in the way of q's right now..(.used the few good ones I had last night...I'll stock up next week on q's lol, maybe buy a couple or hundred lol) So on nights like tonight when I don't have a bajillion hours to spend on the computer I just catch up on chat lol.

Hmm tucked in your envie is a coupon for 1.00 off milk wyb 2 nabiscos, it was a mfc in my grocery store sale papers good until 7/31. I put like 5 in there, but I can get more later in the week if you need.

Sadly I have no Barbie/Hot wheel peelies. Are they on the tops of Peanut Butter right? what brand?

Wow, had a little scare last night. Cashier turns on the light after two coupons didn't scan - after scanning about 50 just fine - and tells GSTL that alot of my coupons aren't going through. I quickly pointed out that it was two of them, but I had the products. She glanced at the coupons and the products, smiled at me and told me it was probably time to change the ink in my printer, then told him to put them on through.

Breathed a sigh of relief, but have wondered since getting home if the cashier might have asked her to look at all my q's. Since I used a BUNCH of BOGOs, and a few just expired manu q's (6/30), that thought makes me a bit nervous. On the positive side, they were very busy for a Monday night, so hopefully he wouldn't ask and if he did, she wouldn't have time. I have literally never before intentionally use expired manu q's, but I couldn't get there over the weekend, and the temptation was just too great.

I'd really like to go back and have a run with alot of manu q's, all legit, that would still leave me with a small oop. Any ideas?

Quote from abf83 :
I was at Target and saw that at EVERY register they have a sign saying that they can not take EITHER of the $5/$25 coupons due to tampering.

Good job to the scammers out there... ruining good deals for everyone!
That wasn't up at the store I was at last night. I thought about getting a few little things and using it, then decided I didn't want a flashing light coming on. Was wondering if the cashiers had at least been told to check every order where someone was using that one.

I guess if I use it again, I will have an otherwise squeaky clean order. Smilie

Quote from junkbulk :
Thanks both of you giving me advice. Which way should be better to report what happened at that store? I know at least 2 of other SDs hate that store.

I was thinking to email corp., but decided to tell manager, who is my fav. and super nice, what happened when I see him.
How did your manager handle that situation?
I started Ranting again when I saw your post regarding CVS.
I would definitely talk to the manager. I had already talked to the manager about this cashier one other time. So when I talked to him this time, I told him that the next time, I would go to corporate. The unspoken statement was that I would report that I had already given him two chances to fix it. He was very apologetic and said he would address it.

Quote from auntcarrie4 :
I posted this in the main thread and got no sympathy.Frown
Just wanted to know if anyone else had this happen...

Update: Called corporate and the girl was very nice and apologized and said she would call the store and straighten them out, and then call me back. She did and apologized again. I feel like going back and asking for the manager that I talked to, and pointing out that she was WRONG, and I might just go find 15 of something to buy, just to use 15 of the same coupon!
Glad to know that corporate supported you, as we expected she would.

I would suggest the next time you're in the store, you ask for the manager and confirm with them that you can use multiples of a coupon when you buy multiples of the product. I would suggest doing it politely - almost sugar sweet - so as to show that you are just trying to do the right thing, even though you were told (WRONGLY) that it was wrong before.

Sugar always gathers more flies than salt. Smilie

Thanks! Hey, maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't carry these full pages around - at least not in my coupon organizer. But then mine isn't something an 8 1/2 x 11 page would fit in nicely. The other reason, though, is that my answer for always having cut coupons - even though they're printed - is the space issue.

I guess I think it might look as if you expect someone to question you on these. I might keep these in the car because I could always say I keep a few there and might have an original printout. But if you have a coupon organizer a full page would fit in, or are only going for the diapers, it's a good reason to have these at the ready.

I have actually found that combining a printed Pampers q (ie GC) and an insert Pampers q ($5 wyb) has made those coupons beep free.

What are you guys buying with the Hotwheels/Barbie peelies? It does not matter which store, Kmart, Walmart, or Target. My friend works stock at the grocery store and peelied me alot of them and do not know what to use them on.

Quick question for you all! I remember you all were freezing the Kraft sandwich cheese back when that $3 coupon was out for it.. does it freeze well or taste funny after defrosted? Did you just move it from freezer to fridge and let it thaw that way?
