Your envie is at the post office.

Eyor44[/B] - sorry to hear you are not feeling well. It's always hard for "momma" to be sick. I hope that you start feeling better soon.

Not sure why the envies arrived days apart considering they were mailed at the same time from the same post office - but glad to know you received them. I tried to put all the August coupons in one envie and everything else in the second envie - let me know if that helped in sorting the coupons - if so I will try to do it again.

Thanks. I feel better now. Getting on the mend. Not sure why the arrived on different days, but I had something to look forward to for the next day knowing another was coming.

Seperating is fine if you want to. I'm easy.

Happy Belated Birthday!

Feel better soon! Summer colds are the pits.

Thanks! I do feel better today.

Is it just me or were the coupons horrible today?

Sometimes I feel left out here in California, less coupons, no stores double. But there was a pediasure coupon, which my DD1 loves so I shouldn't complain. I have loved being a part of this train since it helps me get some coupons that otherwise don't make it west. Thanks![/COLOR]

I wondered the same thing. I was looking forward to some of those that I didn't get. Guess they are by areas only which is why I do as Dj suggest and subscribe to one from a large city. Of course, I have notice that in the past couple of months I am not getting all the ads in that paper now, so I am wondering if I am getting all the coupons.

Howdy Honeybunches! Had a houseful of company yesterday and today so my envie is going to be sent tomorrow morning. They have all headed home so I'm going to start clipping right now while I catch up on a couple soaps from today. (My guilty pleasure! ) Sorry for the short delay and I hope it will arrive by Friday.

Hi Crista!

I actually get one delivered from San Jose. It usually has better coupons than the SF Chronicle which is closer and 3x the price. I may look into a coupon service. So far my coupon buddy hoopfamily's have been way different than mine so I am thankful for all the time put into this group by everyone.

Hwyprincess - I send to Hoopfamily & most of those coupons were in my Chicago paper & the ones I didn't keep are on the way to Hoopfamily so you should be getting the ones she didn't pull out - I know the Hormel on was in there for sure So be on the lookout next week!!

That is what is nice about being on the train!!

I don't normally post to this thread (although I am a member of the train) but I had to vent and I knew that you would understand .

I went to my favorite grocery store, Woodman's, today. Woodman's has really great prices and if I use a coupon there the net price is usually less than at the Copps during double coupons. I didn't bring my coupons with me, but Woodman's has started to tape up coupons next to items on the shelves so I ended up with a two whopping coupons. I didn't want to wait for a regular cashier, so I went though the self-check. My total was over $70 and when I scanned my two coupons one said that I needed assistance. The cashier came over and said "Oh. I need to know how much the item is." so she found it on the screen and deducted $2.69 from my total at the cashier's kiosk. She then came over to help me bag.

I paid for my items and was headed out when another cashier stopped me. She said, "The reason why the coupon wouldn't scan is because it was expired. You need to wait while I call a manager." Huh? WTH? I stopped next to the cashiers' kiosk and waited and all the while I became more and more angry. Why was I being treated like a thief and criminal? They posted the coupon and they accepted the coupon. Was I supposed to give them $2.69 back? The manager finally arrived and said "It's OK, give her the coupon," but by that time I was PISSED. I had been detained for more than 5 minutes waiting for him. I told him that I thought it was unacceptable for them to treat me like a thief over a $2.69 coupon. He said, "Well, the coupon was expired." I told him that THEY posted the coupon next to the item and asked if it was my responsibility to verify that a coupon they posted had been expired for a week. I also said that I would have been OK if they had caught the expiration mistake at the checkout, but they accepted the coupon, my payment and then detained me like a thief. He said he was "sorry" in that dismissive way when they just want you to shut up. I pressed the issue and asked him if he thought that I was treated as a valued customer to be detained by a cashier and made to wait for a manager like a criminal. In a very, very small voice he said "You are right." I said "Thank you!" and left. I am STILL steaming.

Wow. On a coupon THEY posted?? Wonder if anyone is getting in trouble for this, or if they don't have anyone who is supposed to take them down?

Hello from DISNEY! We are sitting here enjoying the fruits of our couponing labors.

We're staying off-site for the first time in a long time and I have to say it's not that bad. We drove down from NJ so we have our car and we're in a nice timeshare with a kitchen and laundry so life is good.

I was expecting it to be oppressively hot and miserable cause, you know, it's August, but it's been quite bearable so far.

I had to take my 5 year old middle DS over to Centra Care earlier today as he's been complaining of ear pain and it turns out he has swimmer's ear and is now on antibiotic ear drops for 5 days. Guess that's one of the possible downsides of swimming lessons.
