So did I missed anything big in the Target thread the last few days? I am skeered to try to catch up in that thread. I guess I will try tomorrow.
Nada. Zilch. Zippo. This week has been the most boring T week. I think you could start with tomorrow's posts and be no worse for wear.

There is a nice TQ hangtag on the Tide and Downy. These will go great with the $1 Tide printable (exp 12/31-- should be in paperclip, maybe?) or the Tide MQs from the current P&G.

Aww! Thanks! Smilie I wrote that just as I was reading a PM from someone begging for the FB coupons to be emailed to them. Dude. I don't even know you. In fact, I went back and skimmed all of your posts and found not a single one in the T thread even though you've been a SD member for quite some time. Tell your story walkin'! laugh out loud Is that terrible of me??? EEK! For all I know he/she is a smash and grabber....

You guys are NEVER going to believe what happened to me tonight. So I went to SWM to try out a few of the coupons and bought a $15 gift card for gas (save .03 gallon yada yada). The lady kept scanning it and couldn't get it to add the $15 as a new card and asked me if I was reloading or if it was a new card. I told her it was a new card and I had just picked it up off the GC rack. She said "Are you sure?" Yep, I'm sure. She finally gets it to work and she's still totally puzzled but hands me the card. I finish my transaction (total amount for my transaction including the GC was $50) and get home and look at my receipt. This is what is at the bottom:

Shopping card reload: $15
Account 92348724802398402948*(&(*&(*_0
Beg bal $80
Tran Amt $15
End bal $95.
EEK! EEK! EEK! EEK! EEK! EEK!

I called to verify--- YEP! The card DOES have $95 on it. I don't know if someone misplaced a card or what. Needless to say, I'm thrilled!!

same here - keep getting pm's from people i've never seen before, not on the target thread or elsewhere. between 3 and 20 posts (so you know they are generally lurkers). if i don't know who in the heck they are, i do not feel guilty for ignoring them. laugh out loud

but maybe i'm just a big meanie too. Crying

Has anyone had luck with the Hillshire Farms and/or the Sargento scanning? They didn't give me beeps--just didn't scan at all at my grocery.
I wish I could print one coupon in two different qualities--the barcode comes out better in the Draft setting, while the rest of the coupon comes out better in Standard.
Wish there was a magic laundry detergent coupon--trying to get the stockpile established for the baby's arrival in December--my goal is to not have to buy anything but the fresh stuff until at least April...lofty goal, I know...but at least I'm good on diapers and wipes! laugh out loud
Wow...I just realized I'm doing lots of wishing tonight! hehehehe...

Are you using the multiple per page coupons or the single ones? I used the bagel bites multiple per page tonight and they didn't scan! ugh
Has anyone used these coupons at Kmart? I am wanting to use the granola bar coupons there and get some easy overage.

Anybody else think the new coupons SUCK?

wow, definite slickdeal of the day! congrats! Thumbsup

on the other hand.. you know some couple is going to be ticked when their wedding gc for $80 doesn't work when they go to use it. also.. if they get ahold of the receipt can't those giftcards be cancelled out in case of loss/ stolen/ whatever? if CS doesn't know what happened you might all of a sudden find your gift card balance as $0. EEK!
this may or may not happen.. but you never know with such fantastically good luck. laugh out loud

you know.. sometimes reading the deals thread makes me want to vomit
i just don't get how people can't understand how they will ruin these deals with the fb coupons. Bash

for the record this is why i ignore pm's from n00bs or lurkers of the thread.
