So, I am not the greatest couponer during the summer - my kids (and husband) are home and I just don't have as much time to sort/collect coupons and to shop! Needless to say, I spent some time making a target list and gathering neccesary coupons. My oldest daughter and I went to target yesterday. I probably spent more time browsing than usual, so by the time we got to the checkout we were pinched for time. Target was also super busy yesterday (in the middle of the day!) and we waited a while to checkout. I put my coupons on the counter as soon as the cashier started to ring things up. Meanwhile, I was busy putting things in my cart. I always scan my debit card first - that way it's ready to go when she is done. The next thing I know, the cashier says - sorry, I missed your coupons. You can go to customer service to get reimbursed. So - I am pressed for time, am irritated in general... what would you have done? Just curious!! (BTW, I probably had about $15 worth of coupons.
This happened to me just yesterday I was yacking with the cashier at Publix. He is very nice , very over weight and basicly everyone picks on him. Me I like him hes a good hardworking kid. He does have problems with his knees and legs so he gets to sit on a stool .He is also very patient with me and my coupons
.. ok anyways stop rambling Tonya... I gave him the coupons before he started to ring me up he finishes I pay and he yells for me to come back. I said what happend he said I forgot your coupons. I had already saved $47 with B1G1 stuff but I waited in line at customer service and saved another $11. was it worth it to wait in line umm YEAH pain in the butt YEAH but its money in MY pocket and thats why we all coupon anyways. Also remember it can mess you up if you pay first then give them the coupons. Sometimes you have to cancel your payment 
then they do the coupons then you pay. so easier to do coupons first. trust me they wont let you forget to pay for your items lol 
We vacationed there three years ago and stayed in a mountain cabin in Maggie Valley. What a beautiful area!! Asheville wasn't far away and there was so much to see and do there, too. You're lucky to live close to such a beautiful and fun filled place.
