Knew that one was coming! laugh out loud

Quote from mama2cole :
I'm going to take my item back on Sunday when I have to go over there for grocery shopping. I decided to keep one of the items they missed the Q for (color wonder set) because it was already 75% off and I would have bought it anyways even without the Q, but I'm going to return the other (electrasol) because I certainly don't need any of that at full price. It just irritates me when they miss Qs like that. I was so excited about getting the cheapo Huggies that I wasn't paying any attention. That will teach me.

And on the subject of missing Qs - How do you guys hand over your stack to the cashier? Do you give them all at once in the order you stacked them or do you do them one at a time? I always stack them appropriately (free, b1g1, highest to lowest, target) and then hand them all over, but I'm wondering if I'm better off giving a few at a time.
I usually hand the stack over with the proper order of the Q's. I've only had one time where the cashier mixed up the order of the coupons by sorting them out. Every other time has been pretty successful. I did have one older lady get pissed at me for doing that and she said, "I can't remember my own name let alone what you purchased!" J/K, but she did end up taking each coupon and matching them to each product. It took awhile. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Quote from flugette :
If you have lots, I could some - I just found out my son LOVES them. laugh out loud And my daughter's not too far behind.


I used to hand them over in a stack, but I kept finding that Qs would be missed, the order would go all wrong, because the cashier would spread them out in front of him, etc. So I started handing them over one by one, and that has worked wonders. Haven't missed a Q, order is always right. Only a couple times have they asked me to hand over the stack, but I just politely tell them I've had too many problems with missing coupons and I prefer to hand them over one by one. That way, if you can tell they're super-picky (once scanning gets underway), you can "hide" some of the coupons, iykwim.
This is a great idea. I'll have to try this. Thanks!

Ohhh I want that bike too! I only have 133 pts though, and I dont think we will be in diapers much longer
That bike is cute! I've only got 112 points (ugh) and it will take me forever to get to the 400 they want for the bike. Darn.

Hmm...that sucks. Maybe you can tell her you've "misplaced" the code?

Wonder if Kroger is doing this? What glade product did you have to buy to get the $2 catalina? The plug-ins oil warmers I am hoping. Or is it the Gel plug-ins warmers you need to buy? I read that in the K-mart thread.

Hmmmm - that's not sounding like much of a mental health day DM Wink
I'm still relatively new to kmart, but I typed up a small primer to PM someone a couple weeks back - let me see if I can find it and I'll send it your way. Kmart is childs play compared to T - you'll do great!!!
Oh, you have no idea bbluesky. Any kind of shopping without my kids is a mental health day, although it didn't go as planned today Frown

Went to The Children's Place today to do some returns. Returned $101 worth of stuff and turned around and spent $111 (got 16 things) laugh out loud

They are having a decent sale, not clearance, but ok prices for there. 30% off lowest price on alot of things.

Had to jump ship and abandon at T today. Frown Cashier started spreading the coupons out and matching them up...scrolling through the register to counting the items against q's. After 15 mins. I said sorry, I have to pick my kids up at daycare. Not good. A nice size cart left.

Sorry to hear that happened to you, but a lot of us have experienced it. Did you by any chance get a team member name so that you can write in?

Can i just say that im totally banging my head against the wall right now....an hour in target and had to abandon my cart...oh because of a cashier your thinking??? noooo b/c if i didnt i was going to have a nervous break down in the middle of T. For the love of god please tell me that this "stage" my two and a half year old is going through is just that. It's like how do you take control of the situation when your kid flat out ignores you?????? And I hate that stare.....the control your kid stare. Yea ok and if i spanked my kid you would be the first person to scream abuse so go eat a d*ck.

I think the problem is I was blessed with a very strong willed child and I'm a pushover. Admitting it is half the battle right??? lol. I'm counting the minutes until dd goes to bed so i can frantically dash to T and kmart to make up for the time and stuff I missed out on today.

Oh and i found a tq for ore ida hash browns today...and now i cant find the freakin mfq i had to go with it!!!

I have $2 off lemon lime soda and $1 fruit that expire 9/30...i have like 3-4 of each to roak so if you can use them within that time frame pm me!

Ok, Kmart people - I tried the Kleenex Q today and it DIDN"T work... Mad

I bought 2 packs of Scott paper towels (yes, it' Kimberly Clark, but I didn't check the UPCs). The Q prompted for price. Confused What did I do wrong????


For those of you who had problems with the Febreeze BOGO not autodeducting, I know why. Evil

(p.s. I can only answer PMs that I recognized)
