Technical question--my kid was near an old computer I only use to print bricks. I turned away for a second and he pressed a bunch of buttons and now everything is upside down. Does anyone know how to fix this? Hubby and I are stumped.
omg, that's funny! i didn't even know it was possible to do that. laugh out loud

as for albertsons, i ended up going last night and had a great run with the kraft coupons. yummy
some of my hot dogs didn't ring up at the b1g2 free as they were supposed to though, so i do have to go back and fix that. but otherwise my cashier didn't even mind the fact she had to manually enter all my kraft coupons. i like albies. any other store would be ticked at me for those. Smilie

laugh out loud Sorry, no help here (you already got help anyway) but I had to laugh. One time one of my cats had been sitting on top of my monitor and jumped down on the keyboard, somehow turning the entire screen not just black and white, but reverse black and white (so like if I was typing in word, the page was black and type was white). shake head

I finally found out how to fix it by searching on a mac forum. Apparently it's not that uncommon of a problem-- but how on earth did they manage to hit that exact combination of keys!!

So, is this too Q'litically incorrect (Wink Teri) for my siggy?

4 for $9 Rice Krispies treats, cheeze its, Keebler Fudge cookies or poptarts
and receive a $5 GC with any 4

4 Pop Tarts = $9
minus
4 x $2 ffs mq (Fuel For School q's found in displays in groery stores, WM, Kmart, etc.) (the one w/ the pop tarts on it) -$8
4 x $.50 tq = - $2
$1 overage & receive a $5 GC

Rice Krispie treats, Cheeze Its, & Keebler cookies 4/$9
minus
4 x $2 ffs mq's - $8
Pay $1, receive $5 GC

So, I woke up this morning and decided to have a yard sale. Like just threw a sign up type improptu. I made $80 in less than two hours and had my first thief lol.

$80 is pretty good considering my stock is getting super low.....I need to get shopping! All of the mexican ladies swarmed upon me in like the first 5 minutes and bought out ALL of my shampoo, i even had to pull some stuff out of my stock.

The thief....I was getting ready to pack up, so I had set the money inside and a lady and I assume her dad pulled up. She grabbed up two things of nexxus and some calgon sprays and was like sorry I'm in a hurry, I was like ok $6.75....of course she needed change, so I just popped my head in the door and grabbed the money. When I turned around I saw her rustling with her bag so I was trying to look at her bag, and as she was walking away I saw she now had 3 bottles of nexxus Mad Mad I think I would be more upset if I hadn't of been paid to take it off the shelves, but how rude!! She was like oh yea, I'll be back I see a ton more stuff I'd like...so I promptly packed up! lol

I threw out a bunch of hotwheels and those sold like hot cakes at .50 a piece.

So excited to go try these out later today!!

Also saw advertised TGIFriday's Complete Skillet Frozen Meals for 5.99 in my grocery store ad - "New Item." If you can find them for cheaper, $3 off might make them a good deal. Firecracker Sesame Chicken is pictured and drool looks yummy

Add me to the list of people with crappy neighbors Frown There was a party next door last night, we didn't go to bed until 1:30... it was still going, loud loud music... I went outside to make sure it was from the place next door and to find the non emergency number for the police but by time I turned pc on and found it, the music had FINALLY stopped... we go to bed, it's after 2.

5 minutes later I heard a muffled yell and then a woman scream and a huge crashing noise - I looked outside and saw nothing.

Go out to the trash/recycle area behind a taller fence... they smashed a tv that was left there from previous owners, glass EVERYWHERE... what a crappy day (I was out cleaning cat litter boxes shake head )

At least the maintenance man is coming by here early next week - gonna see what we can do to clean up this property, crap everywhere... I don't want more vandalism to clean up from drunken college students

Oh on top of this - we have to go cut down the ragweed that is growing like plants in back. No wonder we've been sneezing like heck the last few days

totally feel you on crappy neighbors. our apartment building is a square, with pool in the middle, like a courtyard. any time anyone talks in the courtyard EVERYONE can hear it.
well, recently this grumpy old dude moved in. he likes to camp out by the pool and scream obscenities at anyone else who wants to use the pool. on more than one occasion he even yelled such at a nice guy and his little daughter (she's like 3 or 4 i think). they weren't bothering him at all. senile bastard. it got such that i yelled down out my window.. something to the effect of why was he always so mean to everyone, and he needs to control his mouth because there are children who live here too who shouldn't have to hear that kind of profanity.

the fun part was the day after that i was leaving to do some shopping (bounce) and he and the property manager were having a discussion. i didn't stick around to hear everything but she did specifically state that he needs to stop the profanity and being rude to people who live in our building. it was funny. laugh out loud

i'm actually kind of excited because in the last week, a lady with 3 kids just moved in. her kids are around my son's age. we haven't properly met yet but i think i'll go down to the pool the next time their out so ds can finally have some playmates here. Smilie


as for albies, i went to 2 more stores today. and still have enough coupons left for 1 more transaction. i was questioned about the kraft coupons once - as i suspected i might be - but i did have sufficient koolaid packets to get the usage approved.
and a little humor -

is it bad to admit i currently have 69 packs of hot dogs? EEK!



forgot - at one of the stores there was a mom with her 3 kids right behind me in line. she was so patient while the cashier was ringing up my coupons. i coupon faeried something like 10 each of the wheat thins, salad dressing, and hot dog coupons to her and told her how to buy them to get her total as low as mine was. this was with the same cashier that questioned them, and he even chimed right in and said yep! she got the smartest stuff, the packs of koolaid so she could use all her coupons and it made all her stuff free!! i'm so glad i converted a couple people. Big Grin

Few questions, is the $10 off $40 still good tommorow? And is the quilted northern for $4 a sale this week or do i need a special q??

I just spent $2.24 on 3 folders for dh at walmart because he HAD to have special folders....sheesh men!!

So my great deal for the night was........slim jims!! lol

They have 5 packs that are .99...welllll I found two cases unopened and dh loves slim jims so much that I bought both cases. Imagine my surprise when the WHOLE case rang up for .99 minus my $1.00 off q Cool


(I gotta give credit where credit is due.....I learned from pretzels)
Hi Jen! So these were at Walmart, right? I never really pay attention to these, but it's worth checking out for that price!

Both Barb and I have a multi page PDF now (thanks also to SoapNuts who made one too!). Scans as well as the single page, I used them at 2 Walmarts last night. So far, only one cashier has adjusted the price down. Other than that, I've been getting overage on them all for a week now! Happy to share the PDF if you want to PM your email addy.

Is anyone looking for Lamisil $2 peelies or $2 St. Ives Elements tearpad Qs? I have some of both, and haven't had time to update my trade list yet. I've seen these being talked about lately so thought I'd put them here for now.
