When you've got something relevant to post about Target coupons, please post about it in the Target coupon thread! We'd love to hear about it, but NOT about your dog, your cat, your mom, your genital herpes, your... well, you get the idea.

shake head No, that should have been right. There are two flavors-- "blue" and "green." laugh out loud Mint and spearmint, I guess. Both work for the RR deal. So I don't know; that's very strange.
Yeppers. I picked up the "blue" one to be scanned to check the price. Big Grin It is very strange... I will check the other WAGs and see if it's the same there.

Qs used:
$10 RR from previous Robitussin deal (give this RR BEFORE any Qs)
(1) $1 Crest
(2) $1 Reach
(1) $1 off 2 Oreo peelie

OOP: $0.49 + tax (got back $12.50 RRs = $4.50 Crest RR, $5 Reach RR, & $3 Oreo RR)


#2
(3) $5 Robitussin = $15

Qs used:
$5 Reach RR (give this RR BEFORE any Qs)
(3) - $3 Qs = ($9)

If you go look at the deals thread, you'll see a few posts that I have deleted. laugh out loud I've responded SEVERAL times, but either deleted or changed it. I guess Im hoping he will be like a bad cold and go away in a week or so.

I miss MamaRo too. Did anyone ever get her addy for trades, so that they can check up on her?

Quote from sd59 :
laina - omg! amazing! but seriously how much did you sell to make that? im pretty sure that had to be a ton of stuff!

makes me wish i had a garage....

First of all, thank you for all the well wishes for my SIL...it was amazing to see him like that...

Sd59- Yes I had a TON of stuff.... I priced everything and I went through 3000 labels and still ran out.
My best money makers was the following:

100 packages of diapers - sold them for $7 each or 2@ $13
Kohls deal on pots and pans - paid $9.99 for them and sold them for $60
Pampers wipes 50 of them at $3
Sold out of all cleaning supplies.... windex, swiffer, electrasol etc.
shampoo, and all hair products... lots of pantene stuff at $2 and $3 each depending on size
all toiletries - such as razors, shaving cream, soap and deodorant
Toys - I didn't have alot but sold out of what I had
Food, such as cereal - pickles, pop tarts, rice krispie treats condiments, crackers all that stuff that was free or almost free
Robitussin, excedrin (2 pack) and all the OTC stuff sold for $2 each
Durex play - Sold out at $1.50 each... all the neighbours and daughters friends where buying up these, since my daughter kept telling everyone that they really really work...laugh out loud
Humidifers and heaters that I got at Target for 75 - 90% off
Make up - sold out
Always - sold out

Things that didn't sell so well... cat food.. did sell about 50 bags at $2 but I had over 150 bags of it.. so the rest is going to the cat rescue shelter we have here...
Herbal Essence shampoo - sold some but have alot left....
Stayfree, again sold some, but have alot left.

I think I sold about 1/2 my stockpile...I can see my garage floor again... Yeah... and now everything is in totes, priced and ready to go for the next one... From now on when I come home from shopping, I will unload what is to sell directly into the appropriate tote and price it as it comes out of my truck.... because that took me 5 full days to price everything.

BTW - that was 5 months worth of shopping and stockpiling - since I can only go down so many times in one month I had to wait until I had alot...
Geez if I could shop 2 or 3 times a week.... gosh I'd be able to build that stock pile up in a couple of months.

Also I got alot of people saying this is better than shopping at Costco and I'd never thought I'd find stuff cheaper than I can buy there.

As well, being in Canada, I can raise the prices somewhat of what you can in the US... as prices are much higher here and they still get a great deal and I make a little bit more profit - not alot more, but every little bit helps...

HTH

I know.... I wouldn't do a big shop, only a few things at a time... but I also think that I would get tired of T if it was close to me...I'm happy with going down every 2-3 weeks...Going to 5 or 6 in three days wears me out...
The only time I get upset is when there is a great gift card deal on, and I can't make it down... that's when I wish I could go more often..

I got envies from petzels and double today....makes me all excited and want to run out and shop!! lol But dh is sleeping and no way am i dragging the monster out today lol.

Ok...got a funny story to share. DD and me were leaving to go shopping the other day and I told her to give dh a hug and a kiss on the cheek bye....so she walks over and she hugs him and she goes to full on smack him in the face. wer'e both totally floored like wth?? I said, Caitlin Faith, you do not do that! You say sorry and give daddy a hug and a kiss on the cheek or you are not going bye bye." So she looks at him all wierd, mumbles something, gives him a hug, and smacks him in the cheek again! At this point we're both like wtf?? And we're standing there, and we start looking at each other and have to turn away so dd doesn't see us b/c we both started giggling. She thinks a kiss on the cheek is a smack in the face. Everytime you ask her for a kiss on the cheek she smacks you in the face.....

I'm a bad mom, I think it's freakin funny. Of course now we have to figure out how to break this way of thinking.....but it still makes me giggle. Little wierdo.

That is so weird and funny. . .do you think she heard someone call a "kiss" a "smack" and somehow got them confused? That's actually pretty sophisticated language use, even if it is wrong. laugh out loud

We have no idea....dh likes to tease a lot so my mom asked if maybe she had seen him messing around, but I know that's not it. Now, if she walked up to me and poked me then I'd know she got it from dh lol.

I love when kids do that. Once DH put his hands on his face and said something about eyes. Now if you say eyes anywhere near DS, he puts his hands over his cheeks. so cute, you can't convince him that his eyes are anywhere else

I did 4. it's so annoying. I'll do it this week before they exipire

laugh out loud My automatic form-filler-inner thingie in the brower just remembers the UPC numbers now. I guess I've done a few of these. Big Grin

BTW-- the way I've found is the fastest is, once you get the "ticket" to come up from Ponds, instead of printing it on paper, save it as a PDF on the desktop. Open it, but re-size the window so it's a rectangle taking up about 1/2 the screen. Then open Fandango in your browser; do the same thing with that window so you can see both windows at the same time.

It makes the data-entry process much faster since you can look back and forth and check your work easily. Plus, it saves paper and writing.
