Hi everyone! I was wondering if someone could help me out. I have a bunch of Fuel for School booklets but the coupons don't seem to be worthwhile. Or, maybe, I am just not thinking hard enough. Does anyone have any advice for me on the best use of these Q's? TIA
was wondering the same thing
anyone?

Hey, not trying to stir the FB pot back up again, but I thought some of you might be interested in seeing this. A CBS affiliate interviewed the Vyrl Mkting guy about the FB Qs. Here's the link if you want to see it. Not too exciting....

They will beep at Target if 992's beep for you there.

Kellogg's "family" code is 38000, Keebler's is 30100. Look at the bar codes on the coupons, get yourself a jedi...and get some cheap Kellogg's and Keebler products.

Wow, somehow I turned my back and got fast-forwarded to the end of the thread, instead of being 50 pages behind, trying to catch up! laugh out loud Not sure how that happened.

Anywho - am trying to restore sanity and normality to our routine after my brother's wedding, my parents staying with us for 2 weeks, my son's birthday, my sister's birthday, my other sister's baby shower, and driving my other sister to work every day! Whoo, makes me tired just thinking about it! shake head Thank God my kids aren't in school yet, or else that would have added a whole 'nother dimension to all of that.

Spent a lovely evening enjoying the cooler weather by taking a walk with the kiddoes in their wagon (purchased at Target at 50% off a while ago! yahoo!). Then cleaned the kitchen. Now I need to hunt down some grocery deals for tomorrow.

Anything I need to run to CVS and Wags for this week?

re: Fuel for School q's
So they will beep, regardless if the family codes match up, right? Is there any store where they will NOT beep? KMart, for example? Or maybe Walmart?

Well, they're not all 992's. 6 out of the 12 are and the others are 00051, and 80051. I "think" the 000 ones beep too though.

And yes, there are 1 or 2 other stores where the 992 doesn't beep, I just don't remember which ones they are. Someone else will clue us in as to which ones they are, I'm sure.

No, they're half kellogg's and half keebler. To be honest, I don't know if mine beeped or not. had a ton of q's on Saturday and my jedi is more worried about her "time score" than she is about scanning q's. She scans so fast I can hardly keep up, especially when trying to keep DD from running all over creation.

There were a few people that said an Olay 992 q didn't beep for them a few weeks back, so maybe it's part of one of their updates. who knows. I guess I'll have to pay attention next time to see if they beep or not.

I think I only got one set of these coupons in a trade, and haven't been brave enough to use them yet. Smilie Will definitely have to give one or two a try, hopefully tomorrow. Not that we need more crackers and whatnot around the house!

I pulled a Teri

Did a KM run after put kid to bed then back to back grocery store. Trying to use up my crystal light. Got rid of 7 at KM (they were out of jello), 11 at grocery store. Am all proud of myself. Go to get gas. Clean out backseat. 17 more under one of the kids toys EEK! . Guess I'm back out tomorrow.

I have not found a TGIF that scans yet. I'm more inclined to use at my grocery store as they will key in than at target who scrutinizes every non scanning coupon and then will say they don't take it

I printed it from the original online and it still won't scan for me. I don't think there is a version that will scan - it was just such a low resolution to begin with... at least TGIF isn't calling it fradulent! LMAO
