Can hardly wait to do more WAGS this weekend. Be afraid multitude of stores... very afraid Evillaugh

Went to T tonight... what a disaster of a place. They're still doing construction and nothing is in the right place. Aisle after aisle after aisle of 15-30% clearance stuff - mark it down more, I want to play! Sadwalk Lots of very dusty boxes vomit

Had fun with my few double coupons at the grocery store tonight. more hot dogs... oh boy yummy? vomit

Had an interesting time while checking out. Woman in front of me had a WIC check for $75 worth of formula. Cashier was so kind to her, asking her questions while they had to wait for the formula from a case, chit chatting about hard times, etc... I get up there and give her coupons and she spawns into a witch. What happened to hard times? shake head She wouldn't let me use a few of my coupons (gave me a hard time over Qs that said "ANY")... so I didn't mention she scanned a $5 Q twice laugh out loud
Love it!

Been gone all afternoon so skip if you hate the multi quote. I'm loving the Wags info!!

Quote from sbhiggins :
Yes, to both.
Your first question: you'll need an extra item in your order for each RR you use (or you can try giving the RRs 1st, before any MQs if you are careful enough to work out all the math in your head before hand; I'm just too lazy to do that.) Big Grin The votive candles are $.17 each this week w/an in-ad Q, so that's what I've been using.

Second question: yes, lots of peeps have been doing that.

If you've got the $1 RRs from last week, do a Robitussin deal and use 3 $1 RRs to take your OOP to almost zero. It would looks like this:

3 Robi = $11.97
3 votive candles (for example) = $.51 (after the store Q)
= $12.48
- 3 $3 MQs
- 3 $1 RRs
= $.48 + tax.

You get a $10 RR.

You could then take that RR and used it to buy your cleaning supplies on the next order. Again, you'll need 1 votive candle (or anything) or to hand it over before all other MQs.
I see said the blind man, er girl. RR = MQ but not store Q. Nice.
I didn't know I could use more than one RR per order so with only using one $1 RR my oop was around $3. I knew to get a extra item but had no idea why so I got the 40 cent candy. Now it makes so much more sense. Great info and thanks so much!

Quote from SLickCate :
On the WAGS RRs, they count as a MFR coupon. So you need to have enough items in your transactions to equal the total coupons. Cheap fillers are votive candles in this week's ad. They are 17 each, but you do need to have them scan the coupon in the weekly ad. Check the clearance endcaps, usually lots of very cheap fillers. One store today had tons of knee his for 19.
Two answers are better than one though, right?
For sure!! TY! And now I know why when I tried to buy a $25 shell gift card with 2 $10 RR it wouldn't work. Doh I just need a votive or something. Tomorrow is another day with newfound Wags know how. Wink I have $50 in RR to burn and DH really wants some gas cards.

Quote from thuctrang :
My advice for doing the WAG deal = don't attempt to roll your RRs!!!! You will confuse yourself unless you know for sure which deal you are doing.

Here's an example of my WAG runs:

5 separate orders of Robitussin = $50 RRs

Next order:
Buy $50 GC + (4) 50 clearanced Chapsticks = total of 5 items in your order
Give (5) RRs
OOP = $2 + tax
Nice I know YMMV but worth a shot for sure! Thanks! I think I'll try two $25 shell cards for DH first and then do some more Robbo for my GC.

Quote from thuctrang :
We are collecting enough labels that each of us will be wearing their cap, t-shirt, sweatshirt, backpack and keychain. Of course, we will dress like this going to the theatre using their free movie passes. Cool
Quote from TargetMagic :
I just mailed mine in on Monday. I can't wait to get them. I got a sweatshirt, t shirt, movie tickets, backpack, and hat. I have 90 more bottles in the basement waiting for the labels to be cut off! I love free stuff!
Quote from teri037 :
I'm so jealous Frown
Iagree Me too, why can't this promo be in my state? Frown

Quote from sbhiggins :
You could do what my mom did-- invite him in and keep a watchful eye on the whole scene, never letting the two of them out of your gaze. Embarrassment
That will be me.

Quote from bblueskye :

I did the Wags run tonight...

3x Robi - 3x$3 Q
1x Crest pro health mouthwash - $.75 MQ
4x Postits that are BOGO ($2.29) - 2x $3/2 postit Q

Total OOP $7.03 with $14.50 in RRs

I did to transactions of this order and will probably be doing the same for the next few days - easy as pie!

Thanks to Trang for making sure we knew how easy this one would be!
Are the post it Qs wags Qs or the MQ that I never could find one that scanned except the one that was like the size of a full page and used a tun of ink? Maybe I'm thinking of the index cards mentioned, those were Wags Qs I think.

Quote from Pretzels :
Well - you were probably going to clip some q's for me.....
$4 renuzit
$5 or $4 glade
$1 hot pockets
$3 pert
$2 tylenol
HMMMM.... I'm sure I can think of more.... LMAO
Yes please think of a few more hun, I actually think I have a few of those I can send you.

omg! ive never seen anything like this.
i just was cleaning my bathroom when i noticed some stuff had this weird funk on it. turns out it was my new glade plugins that had been LEAKING all over everything under the plug! it was turned sideways, but the plug lets you do that so i dont know why itd be dripping.
anyways it somehow MELTED the plug of the glade light show underneath of it! i mean literally the side of the plug box is just goo. i ended up just throwing both out because it was so messy Frown

im gonna miss that light show. i use it as a night light for my kitty...
im wondering if i should contact glade?
Bummer Frown

The warmer has to be "installed" with the oil pointing up, the outlet lets you turn it sideways just in case you have an outlet that runs sideways instead of up and down.


If anyone has any extra Sobe labels they want to trade for something please let me know. Smilie

Quote from teri037 :
Well, he's an only child. Sometimes that makes a difference, when they don't have older siblings to mimic..kids do things at their own speed. If you are really worried, why don't you mention it to his doc next time you go. At least you can put your fears to rest then. You already have so much other stuff to worry about. He's beautiful.

I remember when my dd was in pre-school and learned to write her name. She did it beautifully backwards, with such ease...and not just backwards, but mirror image backwards. she didn't even have to think about it...she just wrote everything mirror image backwards..I was soooo scared that something was terribly wrong...talked to her teacher and her doc and they re-assured me. eventually she just stopped doing it.
LOL, my oldest just stopped doing the mirror image stuff in 1st grade, my mom told me that all her kids did this when we were little. The thing is the left to right stuff is a learned skilled not automatic, some cultures actually go the other way in there writing, and some go up and down, so it is a learned skill.

*snip* Smilie

whatever that "oil" stuff is, I don't know but it is horrible if it gets out! I had vacuumed my sunroom and left the plug-in on the windowsill. I forgot it was there and it turned over and ate through all the paint on the windowsill down to bare wood EEK!

Same thing happened in my hallway and that time it was because someone unplugged it, then plugged it back in upside down. The oil dripping out ate through all the paint on our beadboard wood on the wall and trim. That stuff is awful!

Of course I still have them everywhere, but I'm much more careful with them now laugh out loud

and Kat is right, the oil cannot get out (or you shouldn't let it!)-those sideways plugs are just for those odd sideways outlets Wink

Isn't it sad that I am not motivated to do the WAGS deal and I am right down the street from them! Literally could walk there Frown I know I will be kicking myself next week! I wish this funk would go away, maybe I need to switch to a different free body wash Big Grin
I agree. Every time I go there it's drama. I just don't now, unless it's an RX transfer. I actually have a GC in my wallet and DS needs vitamins. I should go this week. What else is there besides the robi deal since I can't use IPC

We got cr@ppy inserts last week! I have $1 renuzits, not sure about glade (if it was from a previous week, LMK), same with hot pockets (don't use them, so happy to send you the Qs). I've used all of my perts at kmart, but if the $2 tylenol you are looking for are the PM Qs from this past weekend, LMK and I can send you some of those as well.

Sadwalk I'm bummed that we won't all get to meet up. Hopefully you and dpages will have another trip out here again somtime!

Ah-ha! So THIS is where everyone has been lately!! laugh out loud

Quote from teri037 :
I go through the same thing too Ariel. We are a rare breed Most people don't want to invest the time...I tried to teach my sis, neices, etc. They don't want to take the time to do it, they just want me to tell them when there is a good deal. At first I did, but I don't anymore. Now, when they say "why didn't you tell me about....", I just say, you can find the same info I can...'feed a man fish and he eats one meal, teach him how to fish and he eats for a lifetime..' I took them all shopping, showed them how to read q's, and told them about my q sites..now it's up to them.
My neighbor comes to my stockpile sales all the time and wants me to come over and show her how to do what I do. She doesn't want to put the time into reading anything. She just wants the info by osmosis, I guess. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Quote from 4hair :
Does anyone have any of the rebate forms for Fuel for School?
I need two. PM me please

I have a bunch of these! I do need a SASE since I'm out of stamps, though. Otherwise, I would just RAK them. PM me your address!

Quote from SoCalGal2008 :
Ariel ..I understand about haters, my neighbors give me "looks" when they see me bring in my coupon stack. Then they whisper among themselves while watching me. They probably are jealous too but don't want to do the work.
What really gets people talking is when you're checking out wearing the Gucci watch with the Coach bag in the front of the cart. They just can't figure it out. laugh out loud I say keep 'em talking! Sometimes I will even turn around and make comments about how little my grocery bill is or how much I've saved in the last year.

Quote from lisapdreamer :
Have to share this with everyone-
At work, those in my immediate office know about my 'hobby'. Don't necessarily want to coupon, but don't make fun of me either. Came back last week from a Target PopTart run, and one of them said that I should keep some at my desk for a snack. She said she would even pay for them. So now, we have a snack box, and 4-5 gals pay .25 for pop, poptarts and RKT. Good deal all around. I can use the extra few $ to buy more coupons for the next deal!
My husband takes a tote bag to work at least every other week with stuff. His co workers LOVE getting everything so cheap.

Quote from coolgal521 :
I need some help from you slick dealers does anybody know where to get cheap and I mean cheap baby shower favors
thanks in advance for any help

I forgot to mention I have about 25- 30 people coming to the shower and the other grandma can not help me financially at all so the whole bill is on me Frown
Toole circles found at Michael's, cute ribbon and use it to wrap up 2 Hershey kisses. Buy some Hershey kisses-- some with nuts (BOY!) and some without (GIRL!). I'm too tired to think of a cute saying, but I'm sure you could come up with something. Big Grin

Quote from Devilmomma :
Don't bother. I don't know why I torture myself anymore...

"Did kashi oatmeal give you a GC?My kashi oatmeal didn't.My kashi waffles gave me a GC.Did your Kashi crackers give you a GC?My kashi crackers didn't.Do you have Kashi cookies?I don't have Kashi cookies.I want Kashi waffles! Waaaaaahhhhhh!"

Ok, now you're caught up.

Oh wait. I forgot to add...."How much is Horizon milk?Can someone PM me the TGIF q, pleaaaasssseee!"
You forgot to mention the INF Little Me Doll. I bit someone's head off for asking about that....again... the other day. Blowup

Quote from prdkld :
How many RR's will wags let you use to pay for something in one trans?
You can't use the same type of RR twice in a transaction. At least my registers have been beeping when I try. I can't use 2 SB or 2 Wyeth etc in a transaction, but I can use 1 of each.

Quote from Pretzels :
Real emails (my junk one) and all kinds of addys LOL. You can only do 3 per address.

Hopefully they don't start filling my neighbor's mailboxes with junk. laugh out loud
