I have to be honest and say in that case they would leave with me like they did the other day. I did share though Ok and sent some to someone others in the thread since I have shelves of Sobe. Normally I don't take the entire tearpad shake head I think we need to share the coupon Love

My friend disagrees with me she say's take the whole tearpad Evillaugh if you don't someone else will. Sadwalk
If it's Sobe, Vitamin Water or Dasani, its goin home with me. Other stuff, I just take a few, except for really good wine tags...like the ones for free rotisserie chicken I found a couple of months ago..

Quote from teri037 :
So...If you went into the gas station and saw a tear pad for Sobe, how many would you take? I mean, I may be selfish, but if I found them, there wouldn't be any more when I left, so why post them in the thread? Does everyone else only take 1 or 2? I know Lord Voldemort takes more, because he sends them out on a daily basis!Big Grin
Ahhh, ok. Now I'm in the loop! laugh out loud laugh out loud

It is very, very seldom that I find tearpads or peelies. One day I walked into a gas station and found a full tearpad of Powerade q's. Went to another one a few blocks away (same company) and found another full pad. I took 1/4 of the pad at each place. I didn't want to be too greedy. I figured I would go back the next day and get more. I came to the T thread and posted what I found and where I found them. So, I go back the next day and they are ALL gone!!

Soooooo, I will no longer post where I found any peelie or tearpad. I will post the q I found, but not where I found it. If someone wants to know, they will pm and maybe I will tell them Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) as long as they are not in my area, that is! I just found it hard to believe that 2 gas stations had full tearpads one day, I post where they where found, and the next day they are all gone from both places. shake head

I guess to answer your question...I won't take the whole pad. I'll take at the most, half. But that's just me. I live in a glass house, so I don't throw stones. Wink

Double - I found this link sitting on top of my IE window - I click it and lo-and-behold it's for $10 in diabetes meds coupons (seriously, this darn coupon fairy works overtime with me) - here's the link for some IPs - not sure if they're anything you (or anyone else out there) can use at this point, but some good $ amounts so might as well check 'em out.

Got this in an email and thought it was cute (from Everyday Cheapskates):

Which shopper are you??

The Couponer ~ shops at the best supermarket in town but buy only items that are on sale AND for which you have a coupon. Now, you get that sale price, plus the coupon value, and that makes for very cheap shopping. It's not easy, but once you get the hang of it, it's not difficult at all.

The Cherry Picker ~ knows that nearly every food store has weekly specials, and the sale items that are dirt cheap are priced so low they are actually less than the store's cost. Stores do this to lure customers through the door, in hopes that person will buy more than the "loss leaders" and pay full price for them. But cherry pickers are shrewd. They buy only the loss leaders from several stores.

The Rebel ~ knows a grocery store or supermarket is not the only place to purchase food. ie: Most dollar stores are now offering canned goods and other non-perishables. Drug stores like Walgreens are now competing with supermarkets on milk (much cheaper where I live) and non-perishables. Have you checked the food aisles at Target? Rebels know that cereal, snacks, cake mixes and a plethora of other items at these kinds of discount stores are much cheaper than elsewhere. Many even take coupons. Rebel shoppers also take advantage of local farmers markets because the prices, while already low, are often negotiable.

How about a combination of all 3!!!

I don't tell anymore either. I went to one gas station and there were two full vitamin water tearpads. I took one, then went to another store, found another one and took half. So, yes I am greedy, but I do tend to leave some behind...sometimes Smilie

The same thing always happens to me!!! When I first started on in the T thread, I would post all the peelies/hangtags I found with a description of each and where to find them. Then I couldn't find them anymore Mad When I first started (and was posting this info) I was only getting 1-2 of the Q's at a time! So then I basically was screwing myself laugh out loud I thought there were no SDer's in my area, but there are, just not openly posting. Now I will sometimes post the Q's I find, but not as often as before, or only after I make sure to get a few at least. I want to help everyone out, but not get screwed in the process KWIM Smilie

I usully take 10-15 Q's if the tear pad is new, then again there was the time where I tried to take 1/4 or so and the whole tear pad ripped off, cardboard and all. I shoved the whole thing in my purse, but that was out of embarrassment for the whole thing coming off Embarrassment laugh out loud If the tear pad is almost gone and I know I will def use the Q's I take them all.


Thanks for the response dear. I did that with my order from yesterday and now I was wondering if I should have done it the other way. Oh well.

That's where I found my Vitamin water q's. Well, actually they are for Vitamin Energy drinks. I get confused sometimes and buy the wrong things. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

I think that has happened to all of us at one point! laugh out loud

As for the Borders order. I'm not sure. Do you think it would've mattered? I got a second email yesterday saying some sight word flash cards shipped. I just checked my emails now and I rec'd anothe one saying 6 more books shipped. I'm getting a bit scared now. I wonder how many orders I will end up with since none of them officially went through!

Thanks! hug

I know of a couple SD'ers in my area that I've talked to through PM's. The other day someone PM'd me about the ST they are building here and said another poster told them I was in the same area. I asked, kiddingly, if she was the peelie pilferer since I can never find any, and also asked who told her I lived near her. I never received a response back. I hate that. People can PM you for info and you willingly share the info, but it's too hard for them to recipricate and answer your questions.
