Mine too!!! I used them at Safeway whwre they are on sale for $2.75 each right now and I got NO BEEP at all Yahoo! I will definitely be getting more!!! Too bad the hubby started a "protein only" diet last week. We are spending soo much on him, I need to save everywhere else possible!!! Thanks again Barb!!!!!!!!!!!!hug
Has anyone used them at Kroger? I have a son in Indy and would love to print out some coupons for him to use. He's 20, so not so coupon savy. I want to know it works before I send him to the store with them. When I was there WM wouldn't take IPs, and the Target is kind of far from his apt. Thanks.

i concur, Ralphs (local Krogers here) has disapproved of my ipq usage in the past as well. i haven't shopped there in a few months though so couldn't really say if that's because i asked the wrong person or if that's actually their policy. if you want to use it there, try it anyway - worst they can say is no and you're not any worse off for trying.

Our Kroger is pretty cranky about IP's. I called corporate and they said they will only take IP's up to $1, and only 1 like IP per customer per day. I have read where others have had better luck at their stores but I stopped trying to do anythiung but the "rules", otherwise I get pissed when they turn me down on perfectly valid Q's.

It's official. Both freezers are full. I simply cannot fit anything else in either of them.shake head

Today was grocery day and I had had a rain check for Palermo's pizzas (better than CPK anyway!) Got 10, got 12 TGIF's (from 3 stores), stocked up on Orange Juice (had wine tags expiring) and Ore-Ida tator tots are free at Food Lion... so no more frozens for me until we RAOK and/or eat this stuff!

It's hot today. August is almost over. I hate August.

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
Jawdrop Jawdrop on the 69 hot dogs!!! Holy cannoli! I think I had maybe 6 of those q's. laugh out loud

hug on the sharing of coupons with the mom of 3. That was very nice of you!

the little boxes that are .99 come in a case and if they aren't opened and you grab the whole case, what do you know that rings up as .99 too!

mama, don't beat yourself up over it. If it makes you feel bad, just don't do it anymore, don't sweat what's already been done.

Ok, if anyone is not going to use the $2 pantene and the bogo pantene q's out of the p&g inserts I'd be more than happy to trade! Believe it or not but I only have 2 bottles of pantene gel and that's it. EEK!

I have: free 2l wyb two dixie products, a ton of ffs q's, and uhm a bunch more that I can't think of right now...if you need it ask and I'll check.

An outline of my day for those of you that are bored enough to read it. Before I get reamed, know that I NEVER run more than 3 errands and take more than 2 hours but our list was so long and work will be crazy next week so I had to.

Baby woke up late, insulin issues. He's high. OK no idea why? Sick?
Play on couch. Baby shoves his hand in silverware drawer. Again. Yes it has a child latch on it.
Hubby comes home from work 1 1/2 hours late. No outlets for me.Mad Run to post office to pick up large package. It's huge from SF. Run to WAGS.
WAGS couldn't fill my RX as it said no refills. Their q expires today ($25GC for RX). He made an exception. So he goes to fill it and it says refill too soon. WTF, it's diaper rash cream. He fills it anyway. This is a 25 minute process. By this time I'm running late. Try to use 10/40 up front but not even worth it with cashier selection. Get an early edition paper instead.
Drive to my grocery store, 25 minutes from there. Get 16 more free rice a roni and 5 free kashi cereals (used q's that expire today)
Drive to CVS 2 minutes away. Get 5 sets of bogo covergirl. Apparently now there is a 3 set limit per customer. Didn't know that. Neither did she. First time she rang order through we had to void as it wouldn't take my MFQ. Second time it came out like $20 over. WTH. I paid and then looked at the receipt and realized the 3 set limit. So a mgr had to come over and refund me for two. It took FORVER.
Went to get a haircut. Forgot my checkbook to pay her.
Soo hungry. Go to KM to get rid of my last few crystal light q's. Find 3 HW. Somehow the order is $12 more than expected so have a return in the car.
Head up to another exit about 10 minutes away. Have a list I need to take care of. Stop at Marshalls to look for shoes (my feet grew from pregnancy. last year I squeezed in my old ones at work and my feet suffered for it). No shoes but cute fleece jacket for DS. Line is 20minutes long.
Next plaza to CVS. Try 3 sets of bogo covergirl. Somehow she screws it up and I'm $1 negative. Pick up a chapstick. S/b .99. It's 1.89 so I have to pay .89. Whatever at this point. Go to starbucks drivethru. I'm starving. Go to my wallet and realize that my SB card is at home. *()*&^^*(*&^%
Across street to TJ Maxx. See an adorable winter jacket for DS for $20. Grab it as that's what I would spend at the used store. Grab a pair of shoes. Line is 15 minutes long.
Drive through Wendy's drive through. Insulin time, hubby calls and asks what to do. I'm a bit nervous, this is my first time not around for it but he pulls it off nicely.
Try to return recalled bassinet to WM. Many expletives but they say the recall isn't in their system. Must email corporate and get them to figure this out
Meet SD buddy Steph at far away target. Use up some 8/31's. Find clearance pool which I shouldn't be using my GC on but they boys really spent a lot of time in our tiny pool this summer and I know they will use it. It was 299 down to 75 so nice deal for a 12 foot metal frame pool.
Got 5 TGIF. Figured we ate 5 in past 2 days so we can fit 5 in freezer. Oh right, was going to stop to look at freezers but my car is PACKED.
Go to DSW, find cute pair of clearance shoes and cute pair of non clearance shoes. Ponder and get both, keep receipt. Somehow know those will be cheaper at the outlets but don't know if I'll have time to go.
Drive into next Target parking lot. Drive out as it's mobbed and I only have 20 minutes.
Go home. Eat TGIF. Type to you guys. Sort through some SF envies sitting here.

I looked today, none but I'll keep looking. DH would LOVE that

Mama I agree with both of them. There are lots of q's others do that I just can't do. You have to do what you feel is right for you.
