I'm having T withdrawls... I haven't been to one in a week. I'm also trying to learn all of the "tips/tricks" for each store...KM, WG, WM. There's just too much info to sift thru and apply! I'm going to have to slowly hit each store and test them out. laugh out loud Thanks for all of your tips here, everyone!!
Thanks

EDI is annoying as heck! shake head

Oooh. So this means I don't have to go to the store to get the actual book? I can just print it and use the Q? Will this work "better" if I have the actual book from Sept, and the printed Q for October for the double-dipping?
Yes, that's what I like to do. B/c that make the two Qs look "different" and so the cashier is less likely to say, "Oh, those are the same."

Also, I can never find the new books in the store during the d-dip period.

Target and WM were putting the squeeze on them. Yes, I remember going with mom and we'd be the only people int he whole store! Heck, the whole store was being run by 10 people!

Ok, this cracked me up because my DS the other day was digging in his nose and pulled out a booger and said "look mom a booger." (then he thought for a second) and said "want it?" I was like, thanks but no thanks.

I've found that many of the cashiers don't even realize that a single Wags q will take off for every like item in your order, so it doesn't phase them when I have two different months' IVCs.

And if they DO say something, I pretend it's ME that doesn't 'get it' and that since I have multiple items, I need multiple coupons. That situation has only come up maybe twice out of scores of transactions, though...

Just my experience*

Tired, tired, tired!!! Smilie That's all I can say. Between trying to organize coupons, going to visit my sister, and running after 2 toddlers, my day was QUITE full, and I still have stuff to do! Oh, and hubby and I cleaned out our van - YAY! The mess in there was just about to overwhelm us. Big Grin

I posted my list of coupons for trade, and the link is here:

linkadoo

Sorry, don't know how to make it pretty. Smilie

Does anyone happen to need/want the tiny (worthless) P&G coupons from the insert this past Sunday? I have quite a few of the inserts lying around, hate to throw them away, but probably won't be using them at all. Just let me know.

Those house pictures were so nasty. Esp the toilet paper plied up around the toilet.vomit

I'm always curious to see what peoples houses look like when they havn't tidied up for company. I always say mine's a mess but this sadly makes me feel better.

quick as I have both computers up and am working on SF on one and MM on the other. at least I will be in a sec. KM had MM peelies but not Playskool BUT they did have a TON of playskool toys that match the peelies. I got 2. that is a great q for KM, now I'll definitely be looking for more. On to WM, they had both peelies but had a GC issue there (gotta find that receipt) so didn't buy anything.

Had to take a couple of things off at the register at KM, she was reading every q and I was in a rush to get back here and get stuff done. They were fine, it's the KM register that kept doing weird things.

Whatever. Keep looking for those playskool peelies. there's a set of cute balls for 4.99 and a bunch of other stuff too

Uhm no....calling customer service on an 80 year old man for feeding birds is over reacting. And my comment wasn't directed at you in any sort of way, I was actually referring to the other person who felt the need to say old people shouldn't get senior citizen discounts b/c they are a wealthier demographic....why don't you go ahead and use that ignore button again, because I've seriously had enough of you for a life time.

Oh and isn't it amazing you didn't make that little hormone comment in this thread? My hormones have nothing to do with your stupidity.

Let it go, shhhez. It was a joke. Do you think I would really call in on an 80 yo man?!

Let it go already.
Ummm, I believe YOU are the one that brought it here. She was just responding to your post.
