One other idea... just like the tearpads, sometimes the splenda packets happen to fall into my purse at restaurants or at starbucks... Such a strange phenomenon Wink

Weird about the serail number, that doesn't seem right
hey, I'll call, and a couple others said they would too. Trang thanks for the serial numbers, I'm at work right now, I'll be on later this evening and get with you Sam...then I'll call tomorrow..back to work!

You don't know how much 4 kids will drink in this hot weather. They are freezing it to make icee.

Pretzels loaded up for me Sobe & Joint Juice. :hugs:

Yep, going to need more... laugh out loud Stocking on Sobe & Aquafina next week and Joint Juice is still stocking at my store. Powerade Qs are harder to trade b/c every SDers & couponers want them.

Still trying with the borders order... a couple ?'s...

-can you do an order with a bunch of books where some are less than $5 and some are more than $5 (so you have some OOP)

-are GC orders working for everyone?

-any way to purchase a GC online and get the number right away (so you don't have to have it mailed to you)?

First off, let me send prayers to doublesided. All you people who have been helping her will be rewarded in some way - even though that's not why you're doing it. You guys are so special to help her. And, she is a very special person too, for helping all of us with the deals. I wish there was something I could do, but it looks like the bases are pretty much covered.

I hate to put a complaint in here with the compliments, etc., but otherwise it would just end up being a double post. Plus it has nothing to do with the above!

Has anyone else encountered problems with the wording of the Land O' Frost coupon? It says "No Doubling", and I have been refused at the SuperTarget from Hell and a nearby Hell-Mart. They said I could only use one coupon per purchase, and that it meant per transaction too. No matter that I was using two coupons on two items - they interpreted that as doubling. I tried to explain that doubling a coupon meant doubling its value but the GSTL or LOD or whomever got quite nasty and rude with me, cutting me off with a sharp "SIR!"... meaning I was to hush.(It didn't work.) I never raised my voice, and I had to give up even though I KNOW that's not what the coupon means. I complained about this woman to the store manager, who agreed with her interpretation of doubling. I told her I still wanted her called out on her rudeness. I'd complain to corporate, but they've heard enough from me about this particular ST. I swear the only time I'll go there is when I have coupons for free items, just to chap their @$$!

We live in a rural area, and my husband's 3 best friends and my best friend all live within a couple of miles of us. Combined, their families have 8 girls and 4 boys under age 12. This borders deal has been a blessing for me since I've been ordering books like crazy for xmas presents for all of them! Thanks to whoever it was that let us know in the T-thread - I never would have seen it otherwise!
yes, who originally posted this? a search brings up the 2nd person to mention this, but i remember reading it here before that and want to rep them.

I did a mix of books (mostly free and a few ones I actually paid for) last night. I'm one of those who's been having all kinds of issues since Sunday.
Last night I did an order from 11pm to 2:30am, using a gift card, but it FINALLY worked and went through. only had to refresh that last page 3 times. got the email confirmation and have yet to get a cancellation (though nothing has shipped yet either).

I thought about getting the GC online since my Borders was across town. But decided against it because it might be harder to get it 'refunded' or whatever without having the physical card should the order get cancelled or other problems. I have no experience with the online GC's though so my opinion could be unfounded. I just did what was comfortable for me and got a physical card.

OMG, ya'll are so chatty! It took me forever to get through all that. At least I was on a conference call for work, so I was really working while I read along!

Oh, and I've been ultra lazy, no 'snips' where I shortened your comments. Sorry!

Quote from teri037 :
Kinda selfish I guess, but I don't really want a tearpad thread.
I agree, tearpads and peelies are hard enough to find!

Quote from calliebritt :
So I was the coupon fairy for a while!
I just LOVE doing that! And being a recipient when it's something I need! heart

Quote from crazy4vs :
kel_be just cleaned a bunch of posts out of the deal thread.
Guess I missed more drama. As long as my name wasn't drug through it! Cool

Quote from whatalotofstuff :
Not selfish.. I agree. Frown It will just make it harder to find these, because many people will rush to get them and sell them on Ebay.

Of course, that being said - it's a free country. But that doesn't mean I have to like what everyone else does in it..
Amen!

Quote from Jen2882 :
Why oh why did I agree to make brownies, cupcakes, AND pasta salad for our emp. picnic tommorow??? Cuz I'm a sucker lol.
Wow, you are too kind!

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
I tend to take as many as I think I can reasonably use and share before the q's expire. Sometimes one, sometimes I pull a little hard. Smilie

Quote from Devilmomma :
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
Yeah, when there is a 'hidden deal' at WG or CVS, there are times now where I don't post it on the thread until I've gotten what I need from them here. I am pretty positive there are lurkers in my area who frequent the same stores I do. So if I post what I got, & where, it's gone when I go back to get more.

Quote from dpags :
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.

Double..let us know if you need us to print and mail you any of these.

Quote from doublesided :
repped x 3

Trangiepoo-phone number is 800-227-8862
Thanks for the number. I never did see, though, is this the Ultra Minis? I have lots of monitors in the garage, I am happy to check for strips and call. And would be happy to share serial numbers with others who will call for you, if I understand for sure which ones you're using.

Quote from Nikayla :
Just got a call from my Dad on my way home from two Target runs and one K run. He is going in for heart surgery on monday!! Frown It is an ortoscopic surgery so no open heart, at least no yet, but still he sounded worried. I didn't talk to my Mom, she is to upset. If ya all have room for 1 more in your Pray one for my dad would be greatly appreciated. He needs stents and some repair on a wall or something that is deteriorating, and if he has any chest pains they told him to get to ER immediately because it could rupture or something. Yikes!
Adding your dad to my prayers as well. Keep your chin up, my dad had this done and came out better than ever (at almost 80). And my father in law ended up with a heart transplant. I can't remember off hand how long ago that was, but DD was a little girl, and she's 13 now.

Quote from Jen2882 :
omigod dh did the sweetest thing the other day. He bought me a new coupon organizer!!
Mine emptied 1/2 the garage yesterday, while I worked. He installed three heavy duty (1400 lb each) shelving units and sorted/organized a ton of my swag for me. He rocks!

Quote from newmember :
Its crazy how they look at me like a criminal!
It is crazy how that can happen, but keep your chin up and believe in yourself. You don't deserve that.

Quote from stormy_cat :
Well I got "Everyone Poops"
DD LOVED that book.

Quote from doublesided :
In some ways, it's better than my "real" friends for years. They just don't know what to say or do. You guys take action.
Funny, I feel that way about lots of folks I've met on SD as well. hug

I haven't been able to find the land of frost anywhere as yet, thus haven't had issues. Since you don't feel calling corp is a good idea, I would make your Target employees ring each one in separate order so you can abide by their '1 per transaction' interpretation of that coupon. That might get old for them real quick. Big Grin

Last time I got stamps and liquid Tylenal PM, walgreens is the only place I can find the stuff and there are not very many doses per bottle! Now the trick will be getting a cashier that will let me take my total down to under $10 hmmm.
