This thread is being created so people -- generally, those people who can't seem to resist talking about off-topic junk in the Target coupon thread -- have a place to talk about shopping at Target and other miscellaneous matters.

All you folks who hang out in the Target coupon thread, start hanging out here instead! 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.

uhm, someone wanna tell me why i cant get motivated? I have a TON of q's expiring on 9/30 and uhmmm still not shopping lol.



Actually what i did was just copy and paste the cc # and remember the 3 digit security code.....that way i didnt have to save it or write it down...i had fandango and ponds open at the same time..went way faster.
Doh Why didn't I think of that!! If you keep the Ponds as html, then you can just cut and paste.

I guess b/c the first ones I did were already pdfs, saved from before I knew about the Fandango deal and I am just a creature of habit. laugh out loud

Exactly how I entered my MM peelies to fandango gift certificates. Took about five minutes each from start to finish.

Jen working at a movie theatre do you let you see the movies for free? That seems like it should be a fringe benefit for you.

You don't even have to save them as html to copy and paste, just leave your certificates open. Unless of course you want to enter them into fandango later, then save them of course. Also if you happen to close a certificate before saving or entering the information into fandango, all you have to do is re-enter the code into the ponds website and enter the word it shows like you are starting over, and your certificate will reappear. You won't have to re-enter name or address information as the certificate has already been done. You start to get to figuring this out after entering sooo many!

I understand. I was just being unclear-- I meant leave the ponds as a webpage, not convert to pdf.

Yep......I haven't actually paid for a movie in like 10 years lol. I wasn't interested in the mm peelies until the fandango thing.....now i did it to give to a manager quitting and stuff like that b/c they dont expire.

Yeap it is so easy to do this way! But be careful not to enter the wrong info. twice on a certificate like I did or you may lose it.

I entered the wrong expiration date of 10/2010 instead of 08, then I went back and entered the wrong zip when I did it again. It wouldn't let me have the gift card with that certificate no matter what I did.

On the ones I only messed up once, I could re-enter.

For some reason I kept trying to enter 2010 instead of 2008. I was totally spacing on those things one night. I had entered like 20-25 from start to finish and was seeing cross-eyed at that point. I still have many to do, but can't get motivated!

Thats cool Jen, they should let you see all the movies. Do customers ever ask you opinion of a movie or the other workers?

Yep, people ask all the time. When I was younger, I'm sure I watched pretty close to every movie that came out between like 1998 and 2001. When I moved to stl I didn't have a whole lot of friends, and I hate going by myself...feel wierd lol. Dh and I used to go two or three times a month, but I don't think we've seen a movie together since dd was born.

When we have late shows that won't get out until 2 or 3 in the am we'll get our work done really fast and watch a movie so we're not sitting around for two hours. That's another reason I don't watch too many movies now...watching movies with the general public is annoying as h*ll. I can NOT stand it. i'm the one people b*tch too about all the annoying crap people do when watching movies, so now it's like i'm acutely aware of it and have like no tolerance.

Oh and people get pissy with me all the time b/c I haven't seen the movie.. Uhmmmm i'm here 40 hours a week, do you go and hang out at your work when you're off???? I do try to have a basic idea of what each movie is but we get some pretty obscure crap that noone but the filmmaker and cast has heard of lol.

WTF... this is someone who knows nothing about couponing, but just sees my stash and hauls..Now wants to magically start saving money without putting in the work.. I do not know why she would even call with the question, she knows me and knows this is what I DO. Her baby (2yr old in avatar) had free pampers, easyups, now panties and wipes every since she was 6months old from my couponing..,My brother married a winner..Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Iagree This has pretty much ruined all movie-going for me. We try to go on week nights if we do want to go b/c the theaters are usually almost empty then. That's the only way I can enjoy it anymore. Also I have to sit in the last row of the front section (so the aisle is behind me) otherwise someone will inevitably sit behind me and put their feet up on the back of my seat. Mad

Hate that too....b/c it is a b*tch to go in and clean the back of those seats!!! Our two largest theaters are over 900 seats alone...we have 16 more! You have to clean them, and then wipe them down with protectant....it takes foreverrrrrrr. So puhleaseeee dont' put her stinky feet on the chairs! lol

oh and wed.'s are the BEST day to go. They are typically the slowest day of the week. On an average wed. we probably only sll for 2/3's of the movies.

Tonight we have a live satellite event of the met opera opening night....this means lots of b*tching and lots of older guests lol. Next week we have the rams coming in!! I'm kinda excited about that one, it's just neat!

I rarely go to movies anymore - been to quite a few this summer because it was free! But I refuse to go on weekends, I can't stand crowds... Even when it's super quiet at movies, why do people have to sit in front of you when the whole rest of the theater is empty? Happened to me the last 2 times Mad
