Quote from NCmommy :
This is a great run, but I wouldn't consider it completely legit because of the Goodlife (size restrictions), woolite, fur fighter and $5 durex coupons. I'm not judging at all but I think Whatalotofstuff is looking for completely legit in all aspects of the coupon.
And isn't the cheese coupon expired? Not sure. As usually Momma is rightnod

I personally have stopped using any questionable coupons, including the Durex. I prefer 100% legit runs, it makes it easier when I want to fuss over them not taking something.

I also realized lately I could not be more conspicuous if I tried. Maybe if I ran thru the store throwing coupons in the air, saying "I'm making it rain, make it rain". Other then that I'm just to noticeable. I walk in the door at the same stores, at the same times, same days, same cashiers, LOD's, etc. I also walk in with a bag filled with several coupon organizers, I fiddle with coupons thru out the store. I used 23 Electrosal coupons Sunday, not smart on my part. I don't know what I was thinking.

Last time the Electrosal coupon came out I didn't use them at Target, as I didn't want to bring any attention to myself. I went to Wal-Mart and used them their, as I never go to Wal-Mart. When someone walks through the line and basically gets 23 box's of dish soap for free, AP and others take notice. Doesn't matter that it was a legit coupon or not, makes peelie hunting harder IMHO.Wink

Is this whole line of discussion really necessary? It's just my opinion, but I think What.. is trying to make a statement by veiling it in the question that was posed. We all get the idea. To begin posting runs and then having everyone pick them apart as to what is legit and what isn't will only cause this forum to be a miserable place for everyone.

The definition of legit is not going to be the same for each person. According to T's policy that's been mailed to many of us and is posted in the Wiki, they do not allow overage - coupons must be adjusted down. If you wanted to be completely "legit" then there would be no way to use overage to buy anything else, so you would only be able to buy specific items and get a good deal. That part of their policy also raises the question of how ethical it is for them to take a Q, redeem it at face value but only give us, the consumer, part of the value . . .

My point is we all have different standards and approaches. Bickering over whose is right and whose is not is a waste of time!

You know, I didn't even think of that.
I got 4 packs of undies (so that is, I think, 10 pairs) and then 6 others that were individual, a bra... and then 2 hairbrushes and some hair cream... $75.
I can still go to VS... I didn't know about all the deals. Just look in the thread over in coupons for that?

Well to be technical , a mod posted about a month ago that the posting of runs in this thread was not allowed anymore, everyone ignored them. I don't feel like searching for the post as it was 2 threads ago, but others will remember it.




This thread has a LOT of OT banter, I'm guilty of contributing to this as well. HOWEVER many users help to keep the wiki updated and post updates for those that don't want to rifle through all the pages. The posting of runs, and even coupons for trades helps others IMHO, many times readers of this board would not see deals if it was not for the posting of runs, etc. Also at the end of the day the posters of this thread,(the vast majority) find posts that are a little OT to be helpful. This is a community, most of us on here have relationships in one way with one another. I don't see you posting about OT banter when someone posts they have a baby. Why? Because many on here would find that to be news, and an informative post. Lighten up.

This is in no way related to Target.. but, I scored 2 bras shipped for $5.90 a couple weeks ago... Plus, I totally scored at my local B and M store... YMMV in what "your" store has... but the SAS stuff is mostly an ADDITIONAL 50% off of what the SAS price was...Wink

No coupon needed for the pink tote. There'll be a sign that says "free w/ANY pink purchase" best bet, really, go for the $1.50 lolly pop...
The makeup bag is w/a "tear-out" coupon from Cosmo Girl 08 issue w/Vanessa Hudgens on the cover...
the body scrub, you can print out the PDF version of the e/m and use that as your "coupon" for the free scrub...
Sale ended last week... remainder is on "close-out" in A-LOT of stores... again, YMMV...

oh my gosh.. a couple weeks ago it was our anniversary, so i took myself to VS. someone had given me a lotion from there and it smelled sooo good! i had to hit the store and buy more. laugh out loud
sadly they don't have the My Desire scent anymore. but there were a bunch of other good-smelling lotions. the in-store special was a bit different from online. online i think the special was 7/$30. I didn't have a VS card though, so shipping totally killed that deal.

but in the store the special was 7/$35, and the 8th one free. so almost the same price. after asking a couple different employees, i was able to get the 7 and got the 8th free. AND use the coupon for the free body scrub. so i paid $35 for 8 lotions and the scrub, very good!!

the body washes and fragrances smelled really good and were also part of that sale.. but I already had so many of those type of products around here. I had hardly any lotions that actually smelled good though, so that's why I basically only got the lotions.

On the scents I liked, I got 1 endless love, 2 sweet daydreem, 2 romantic wish, 3 pure seduction, and for the body scrub I got pure seduction.

These lotions smell so pretty, I apply after a shower and I totally feel like I just got a sexy spa treatment. And.. dh likes it when I use them too. Stick Out Tongue

I forgot to mention the funny part. Since I hadn't smelled those scents of the lotions before.. I had to ask one of the girls if "play with me" meant those bottles were the testers. (didn't want to accidentally open something I wasn't supposed to)
The answer is - yes! LMAO
