Doublesided...I looked at T.Rowe Price for the Roth IRA and they charge a $10 annual fee. Is this true?... I chose the 2045 Retirement fund only to invest in, is this ok? I tried to do the one through my job, but they only invest in CDs at an interest rate of 2%-3%. I was looking for something higher. No stocks or mutual funds.
Yup $10 annual fee isn't bad. Edward Jones is $40. Some are $20. $10 is what they call a "custodial fee"

2045 isn't bad, once you get the hang of investing, you will want to research your other options and invest some in that and some in other funds. 2045 is good for right now as it will do the diversification for you. May be scary for a while as the market is so sucky

But dont' forget, I'm just a fake internet person. You definitely want to do your own research

I know it's like beatin a dead horse, but I have been thinking about that whole Sunday cell phone call business. I know that Target just dumps their q's into a bag at the end of the night, and...we've all seen them just insert into the slot when we use them. They get mixed all up with other q's...so I think the man that called her was just trying to get her to confess to using a certain q, because there is really no way he could prove it, ya know? Also, if they were going to have someone investigated, or arrest them or whatever, they would call the police, not the customer...I think she has nothing at all to worry about.

if they have been watching her, they probably would have pulled out her cpns after she left.....

true, but even so, if they did that and decided to do something, the something wouldn't be a polite phone call from a Target employee...just doesn't sound right. I still think she has nothing to worry about at all. Even if they pulled her q's out when she left, they would still be mixed in w/ all the others...that is, assuming there were others..

you must have gotten totally different ones than I did, I don't have a dad, son or Grand canyon, I have Discover Card, and a stack of Denny's Pancakes! It's a .75 off q that's on the next to the last page, right under the Beano q laugh out loud I'll send them to you, PM your addy.

edit: I DO have the dad and son/grand canyon, but thats the Red Plum, not SS..Look for the one with the discover card. There were three inserts that week.

I work retail and I know they can see everything you hand a cashier. They see every q scanned and every dollar taken. They can zoom in and see everything. Big Brother watches everything. They do it to catch the cashiers underinging or sliding products. So they know what she used just by looking at the camera and pulling up the transaction on the computer.

I dont know what slot you are referring to...but here they get put in the last partition of the dollar bill section of the cash drawer....I was there Saturday when it was emptied into a clear rubbermaid type container...and I was pleasantly surprised to see it had quite a few in it, just not sure if that was a days worth, shifts worth, weeks worth or what...Confused

So I just sorted my q's. I have 4 more pampers runs left and that's it. I'll be sad when it's done but happy to be done with it all the same. I think August will be a lot less stress without this diaper deal! I'm going to try to get these done this week. Then I need to use my goodnites peelies. Then I'll be done with diaper stock up for a while.

Unless I trade for more pampers mfq which is always a pastability.

I hope Oranges is OK, I'd be freaked if I was her. I can only guess the coupon they asked about. Wonder how far back they are going, like are they tracking from Jan, Feb or just from past month or so.

I really need to find a babysitter so we can use these mamma mia peelies.

No target for me tomorrow. Going to KM and grocery store at lunch with the boys I think. Too busy at work these days for lunchtime runs, have to go after work and would rather wait until Wed to see if there are any more markdowns. I'm thinkin with 4 more runs, I'll beg DH to do a cart so I can get it done in 2 more.

they don't put it in w/ the money here. they drop it in a little drawer with an opening to drop the q's in.

Whatever did happen to Whee, hasnt been on in a long time????

Just curious once someone ends up ditching a cart, do you continue to go back to that Target right away, or do you usualy lay low for a while? curious as to what everones thoughts are on that
Depends on the circumstances and time of day, etc. I don't feel I draw too much attention to myself, don't use coupons questionably, etc., so if I ditch my cart, its because the cashier is being way too ignorant about my coupons. Like today's first attempt at a run. I could tell from the first coupon she scanned it was gonna go way bad. And it did. I just know now I will not go to that cashier EVER again. Probably won't go to the store again soon either, but just because it won't fit in my Target schedule. Smilie

Duracell 2-pack is in the school supply section, at $1. Use the $1/1 MFQs to make them free, no beeps!
