Does anybody know if 06 Toys are being shut down via an update? I have had 3 stores not be able to scan the left barcode on the Tranformers within the last week & today it started happening to Thomas & Polly too...if the number is manually typed into the register it seems to take it fine, but they WILL NOT SCAN, even with a crystal clear barcode! Mad What the heck is going on?

Quote from gypsylady :

*snip*

Then DH was telling everyone in the family to lay off on using so much toilet paper. I have asked him more than once, did he think it was because the charmin was thicker than the TP we used to buy. That was the only thing I could think of, because I don't think all the kids were using like twice as much or something. Apparently when DH cleaned the septic tank (3 times in the last year we are using charmin) he is seeing a lot of TP.
I live in an old [75+ years] house w/ancient hook-ups to the city's sewer lines. I cannot use Charmin as it consistently clogs up the pipes.

Wow thanks for the tip. I suspected Charmin was the culprit. We live in a newer house, but are on our own septic tank, so I'm sure it is not as good as the city septic tank. I had already decided to go back to our old brand, once we ran out of our stockpile of charmin. I will be telling DH to quit yelling at the kiddos for using to much, because Charmin is to thick for our septic tank.

hi there wave Im just wondering, is it better to flush the toiler paper or just throw it in the paper basket? I don't have issues with the charmin TP as we don't flush them anyway. I think it saves us more $$$ since we don't have a lot of problems with our septic tank nod

That is what my DH was telling the kids they should do! I didn't want the mess, but I'm sure it would be much better on the septic tank. My DH also wants to take our washer off the Septic tank, because he thinks this clogs it up to.

It must have been a man who coined the term "morning sickness" (sorry guys)... either way, my body didn't get the memo because I was sick all day long too! vomit

I was super sick with my first and not as sick with my 2nd. Both were the same sex. I was convinced that my 2nd one would be the opposite sex of my first because I just wasn't as sick, but nope.

I don't have much else to offer, but I feel your pain - hang in there!!!

Quote from coolgal521 :
So what's everyone gonna do with their coupons now? frame them? just kidding, i know its not funny how could they do that to us???
Mail them to vyrlmkt "postage due" LMAO

Quote from Devilmomma :
Juicy Juice put out a high value coupon in a flyer that was meant for teachers. The coupon basically made for free JJ. Problem for them was, they also posted that flyer on their website and if you clicked on the coupon, it would print a pdf of it. They apparently didn't realize how many people would print the coupon, and when tons and tons of these coupons started showing up for redemption....they declared the coupon invalid. It wasn't meant to be printed, blah, blah, blah and they wouldn't reimburse stores for them.

I think that's the jist of it anyway.
This coupon was on the Scholastic website and was a pdf booklet for teachers to give to parents a "parent teacher conference guide" of sorts.

Quote from imnotanasshat :
EXACTLY.

How are "the masses" supposed to know that the coupons are now invalid, especially if they got them forwarded through email?

I think they'll see these coming in until they expire (if not beyond Mad ), and I *don't* think, with all of the evidence out there, that vyrlmkt will be able to get out of reimbursing the retailers for them (again, provided the retailers have lived up to the coupon terms).

They can't claim "copied or reproduced" because you can't tell the difference between the originals and copies.

Asshats supreme. Times two.
Guaranteed they will deny any that were printed in grayscale. They are "copies" even though they say internet coupon on them and not all that printed have color printers Crazy

I was sick and threw up every day for the first 16 weeks of my pregnancy with my son. And then just like that, it was gone. Congrats and best of luck!

... twins or more have greater hormone increases, which tends to cause more severe morning sickness. ... (I know this to be true from experience)

I was sooo sick ALL the time, and my poor husband would try to be helpful. I could not look at raw meat of any kind. Once, I was lying on the sofa, green as a pickle and he gets in the kitchen, cuts up a chicken and starts cooking dinner. He was trying so hard to be helpful. I saw the chicken laugh out loud and then I smelled it cooking, and by the time he was done, I was in the bathroom vomit...from then on we ate peanut butter sandwiches until the sickness passed!

I was sick all day with my girls, they make ginger flavored suckers that are suppose to help this.

since my problem was being off my stomach meds and having no sphixter to keep my stomach contents in my stomach nothing helped meCool Most people don't have that issue so they might be worth a try?

lol I went through the raw meat thing with my second one and like you my food for weeks was peanut butter and crackers(instead of bread I couldnt even stomach that) The only thing I can say is try different things mostly bland foods my morning sickness(LMAO ) was so severe for me that I ended up loosing 20+ lbs through out my whole second pregnancy and was drinking ensurevomit until I delivered she was a healthy 8lbs 3oz so they will take what they need from you no matter what well usually Smilie HTHhug
