the wm thread...some lady made some rude comments to someone for taking 12 peelies....like told her she was stealing rude. I said no, I disagree...she responded, her little cronies jumped in, I ignored it.....then I said something about someone ripping a page of kraft q's out of all you and of course here comes her little self righteousness saying it's the same thing all snippy to me. I'm being the bigger person and ignoring it...because it is just the internet, but that doesn't mean it doesn't still piss me off!
It is true. It's not like we're all real or anything, most of us will never/have never met each other. I'd just ignore the peeps that bother you, that's what I'm going to start doing. My work is about to get crazy and with the kid stuff, I'm going to have limited amount of SD time. I wanna make it good hanging out with my gals, not arguing with people over coupons. Just not worth it.

I am so not motivated to go to target and I have to use my 8/31's. It's all ST fault. If I never would have seen it, I wouldn't be pining for it

Quote from classyscrappers :
I don't often make it to this board but have decided to venture over. Went back and started reading a few pages to get a feel for it and for a few minutes I thought I was a board only for pregnant women! Congrats to the masses. Is there anyone else on here that isn't pregnant or am I the only one with a big belly without a baby in it?

Anyway, lots of familiar screen names that I see in other forums so I am sure I know many of you - just didn't know there was a baby fest going on! Look forward to chatting with others.

And I have to ask (hope it is okay), if not please tell me and I will remove - has anyone else thought that it is quite possible that the Check It Out folks know (as I am sure their lawyers have probably told them) that they will likely have to reimburse retailers for these (or most of these) coupons. I am thinking that possibly their posting of 'from this day forward all coupons are fraudulent' is a poor attempt at a scare tactic to get people to stop using them and hopefully cut their losses?

I know they are pretty ignorant to let this whole thing happen in the first place, and then they compound their stupidity by saying someone hacked into their site, and then they pull the 'let me clarify' they will be reimbursed for the legit coupons..blah blah blah. One would think that they might be able to refuse payment on the shrunk down multi-paged (altered from it's original state) ones, but there really doesn't appear to be any ground for them to deny payment on the originals printed from their links.

They have to know that most of the people that printed those original ones or that obtained the original ones via friends would likely hear that they are going to refuse payment and therefore would likely stop using them. They also have to know that many of the people that have the bad pdf's (for lack of better words) might not find out about it but since they are bad copies they might have a leg to stand on to try to refuse payment on those (deep breath - breath with me now). So, by getting those that printed them from their application to stop using them it essentially cuts their losses as these would be considered the 'valid' coupons. So is it a scare tactic to try to cut their losses? If it isn't why wouldn't they issue some sort of press release?

Of course this is just my mindless speculation so if you wanna tell me to blow it out my you know what I understand , I was just wondering if anyone else thought this. Sorry, I know I am rambling on. I guess I should shut up, I come here to say hello and instead I start typing away. I would say it won't happen again, but well, I tend to do that - at the very least, for those of you that were feeling restless you can always come and read my rambling and it should put you right to sleep....

I came to say hello - so FINALLY...Hey everyone here at the Target Chit Chat Thread
I've thought the same thing. They do research, put out a group of coupons for people to use, then claim fraud and say they won't reimburse the stores? I do think they're trying to cut their losses just like the JJ people did. Legally, I don't know how they can release a coupon, actually tell people that they are indeed legit, then not pay stores reimbursement after we use the coupons. I'm with you. I don't think they had any idea how many coupons would be used. I don't think there's any way for them to know at this early date anyway. Would coupons used over the weekend even be sent for redemption yet?

Hi-just wanted to say hi cuz I read all the time but don't usually post.

Need to vent, probably shouldn't seeing how many of you are juggling jobs and young kids, sickness, homesickness, etc..but gosh I found out something at work today that is making me 'tired' laugh out loud

We are w/o a secretary right now, also without a panel manager (manages all of the doc's patient load). finally hired a panel manager who can only work half days for awhile, so I have to train her in the afternoons. Having to absorb some secretarial stuff, and I am not a secretary, props to all secretaries is all I can say! But today word came down that our clinical coordinator, my boss, is being tasked to surgical services for 2 months...so..no secretary, p.t. panel manager, and now I have to cover for the coordinator for 2 months...I may as well just bring my bed and stay there. I feel bad for complaining, but....I don't know if I can handle all the extra...

ok, vent over ..

On a side note: has anybody been getting any bricks Qs mailed to them lately? I feel like I haven't received any in ages.
I got some yesterday, but it sure does seem like they are running slower lately. Maybe since everyone is finding out how to get these mailed more are asking for that service??? IDK
