I past up some things because I get to thinking about what I am going to do with this much stuff at one time. If it's not food items I will just get it anyway. I can't stand for anything to go to waste at my house. Times are so hard for everyones so I know everyone uses what they get for many different reasons. When I see someone in the store buying something I have coupons on I want to say "Do you need a coupon on that?" I have a few extras most of the time. Do you limit yourself to how many items you get on anything ? I noticed someone was going to get 50 bags .I can't even imagine how long that would take me to use up that many.Keep getting those great deals!!!! This is unreal to me sometimes. I have been using coupons many years and I thought I got good deals but several people on HCW have amazed me with what they can come up with. My DH says it takes a lot of thinking and he just realized it.

We've got a whole slew of teenagers around here that will make quick work of them in no time.
I'll probably put back a bag or two for myself, and hubby will most likely give some out to his coworkers. He's such a good and kind boss. lol

All of our extra headache meds, toothpaste/brushes, razors, deodorant, etc. goes in goody bags for his crew on a regular basis. They are so spoiled but it saves them tons of money not having to buy all these HBA items.

Thanks for the tips. I guess I could send some to work with my husband. I did fix all the guys he works with a bags of candy on several different holidays and I did carry all the Seniors Citizens candy when we had something special at work or on holidays. I was manager of the Aging Program in our little town , but had to give it up after 20 years because of health problems{ quit in Feb. 2008, was just 5 hrs. a day, but have kinda felt lost just being at home.I think I'm feeling a little guilty since I've always had to work.} They love candy so I'll try to keep everyone in mind when I find a good deal. Maybe I'll donate to our school. I know some of the teachers and they will use it for rewards in classroom. Guess my mind just went blank for a minute about such good deals I could'nt think .lol! Thanks again for all your help. I look forward to reading the HCW site everyday!!!! It Has made be laugh a lot at some of the things other people go though just to use their coupons.....I have had some crazy things said to me by the cashiers too. Seems like everyone here thinks about whats best for their families and that is great.

The cashier said it's B1G1 already that's why the coupon can't be taken. :shrug7: I got two cashiers like that from last deal. It's totally annoying because you know it's not true but can't tell why! :frown:

It's never too early to stock up on Halloween candy - esp. if these Lifesavers are individually wrapped!!

I will be donating mine to my local childrens shelter. Those kids need some sweets too. I bought about 60 or 80 coupons ansd qwill just get the ones that dont cause the coupon to beep.

Plus today's insert had 3 Qs for Suave products .50/1, $1.00/2, and $2.00/3. SO, if you can find that extra $2.00 off deal like I did and you're going to Target you can get: 6 body washes x $1.50=$9.00-$5.50 in Qs=$3.50 paid for 6 or about .58 each. I think I got all that right! English major here, not so great with the math!

Hi, and welcome!
Just wanted to point out that if the 2.00/6.00 coupon you found at Dollar General is a mfr coupon, it couldn't be combined with the insert coupons unfortunately. So, I don't think that would work for you.
Good thinking anyway!

i would email cs and ask them their policy on this also ask them to repost your ? in the reply and take that to the store as your ammunition.

(i did this but they didnt put my ? in the reply so the email doesnt make much sense)

Thanks for the info. I have thought this was ok, and always have htought that as long as I can place one Q on each item, like you said I was ok, but someone posted on another board they thought this was a NO NO with a BOGO. I feel like I'm just useing that BOGO to get a freebie when I'm buying something else. Why not get the something else as cheap as I can. SO THANKS

YEAP me too:) I got 12 bags last time and I had bought 20 coupons but couldn't use them all so now Im . I heard that the soldiers drink too much Gatorade(sweet) that their teeth rotten(sp?) and that they like to pass out the wrapped candy to the kids:o) so those might be a better idea(just a thought)-- thansk op!!-reps
