Awesome runs! Good job!
I want a Safeway or Albertsons.
Barcode for Nerds is 579200315004.
I'm trying to remember where I got the Nerds Qs from - were they in the August All You?

Worked okay as of Saturday....
I have even made friends with the coke, pepsi, and nabisco vendors...They give me coupons and tearpads when they get them...
I've told a few people and they just don't get it... then like alot of you, they just want me to give it to them free... I did at first, not anymore... no thank you's or here's a few bucks to get some extra papers - so nothing for them anymore.
I told my sister and she's just to uppity to clip coupons... she see's it, she buys it.. doesn't check prices on anything... But hey, she will now buy from me "to help me out"..
I'm not proud I'll take her money...
for whatever reason, no matter how many times i've tried to explain to them. or how to do the deal, even so far as to pass over a few coupons to do it. they just don't get it or aren't willing to do it.
i've been a sahm for almost 6 months now. in the last 6 months, dh and i made a huge payment to get my car paid off - and we are about to do the same again to completely pay off his. we would never have been able to do that if i had kept working. between daycare and other work-related expenses (such as gas) i was basically like another poster said, bring home a whole whopping MAYBE $50 a week. it wasn't worth it to me to keep working for so little. so i quit and could then put more time into the couponing.
my family knows i can afford to be a sahm because of the coupons. wth makes them think i'll be able to afford providing for both me and mine as well as them and theirs? so now i just don't even try to help them anymore because they seem to think i'm crazy (even though its obvious how much we save). the only family i still bring stuff to is my parents.
i think a lot of the attitude we get from other people about the coupons is because they've never done it themselves, and just can't fathom how much it really takes to get into it and do it well. so.. they see paying $.25 for an item you got for free as being fair because all they see is you got it for free. umm, no. you had to buy the newspapers, you had to cut the coupons, you had to figure out the deal, you had to drive to the store, you had to shop the aisles, wait in line and possibly hassled by a cashier over coupon usage. those are things that make the item NOT free. i just haven't come up with a polite way of explaining that to these kinds of people.
And just for LittleTeaPot and perhaps INAAH, here is another link that should bring laughs for those of us who are 12 most days!

Oh, hey---I wonder if we could use this in the store? Just think, it'd be great to drive off reds and other shoppers from aisles with a bunch of peelies...or to make sure you get that item you really want on Black Friday (though I'm not sure this would deter some of those rabid bargain hunters...).

that's actually priced reasonable well for how big it is. i think dh needs one. and that soap.. that is just too much.
omg my dad would have a hoot over that one. he gets kicks out of farting in the fridge in stores and waiting around the corner until an old couple opens it and tries to figure out which of them did it.
Hey yall don't let all your families get you down. This is hard work. You should be proud. I'm just now starting to do this because I read about this site in an article. I've always wanted the best deals around and don't mind comparing prices and other such methods. Any help or ideas yall could give me would be appreciated greatly. I read the forums to pick up on deals and coupons and such, but that doesn't help me with strategy or how to. haha i'm just a poor noobie. For real though don't get down bout the little stuff.
Okay, folks, I need help with this TGI Friday's coupon. I have had a couple of kind SD'ers send me this baby (THANKS!!!), but it will NOT scan. Not at Wal-Mart (SCO or otherwise), not at Hy-Vee...I don't even wanna TRY it at Target.
Anyone got a sure-fire scanner? I'm printing in color on a laser, so it's not that (all others scan fine---well, except for about half of my Pop-Tarts TQ, but that seems to be the norm).
My printer is always set to the highest post script level, and the toner saver is always off. Those are the only things that I can think of that affect the print quality on a laser.

That is absolutely hilarious. I don't know that I'd have it in me (pun sorta intended) to do this, but I'd love to be there to watch.
When I waited tables in college, some of the guys used to joke about "crop dusting" as they walked past tables when a couple was obviously on a date. Then watching as the couple looked at each other, each thinking it was the other person who let one go. I still get tears of laughter when I think about that....
Not sure on the Nerds one, sorry.
A good way to tell if a coupon will autoadjust is to look for a 14 or 16 in the last two numbers - these always autoadjust at Target.
x xxxxx xxx14 x
x xxxxx xxx16 x
In the end...... the manager was SOOO cool about it. We both walked out paying almost nothing and she said we should come back - they love seeing people they know LOL!
