I KNOW!!!! We got our fancy new LF and not a single triples since then. It is not fair! I am grateful to HT, but.... there are some items they don't carry and they are further away etc... but the cupboards are bare, so i will be clipping! :lol:
But of course!!! :lol::lol: Derek moved to another HT so I dont know what the rules will be and that scares me a bit!!! I would hate if it was only 1 time through! (dont forget to do payroll first... LOL) See you then??
Cashier at the Hwy 70 Lowes foods said that they are not going to be doing triples anymore due to ppl abusing it (making 20+ trips through the checkout line)
I didn't know Derek moved to another HT. He was so nice! Oh well, I don't think I will participate in triples this time. It has just gotten to where there are too many people doing it and when I get there (even early) half of the stuff I wanted is already wiped out. (Remember the lady with all the carts last time?) Maybe if I were nearer to another HT I would. As for payroll, I've talked my boss into changing our pay date. Now I get to do payroll on Tuesday. :mrgreen: So no worries about that again!! My boss loves me!! :lol:
No wonder I couldnt find you this morning. They had hand written signs on the doors saying they would NOW strictly enforce one trip a day. I have to admit the shelves were better stocked since people had to think twice about what to use their limit on. (no one was getting hordes of one thing) but again it was 7 am, so who knows what is like now. It wasnt as crazy either, maybe the new fad of couponing is dying out and it can be back to us regulars again! :lol::lol:
I didn't even get ready for this. Kinda whipped out with it, because every time I go all the way to HT, which is a LONG way for me............the shelves are wiped out during triples. I'll just stick to Lowe's, happy they are doubling every day, I can make that work for me. Too bad some greedy folks have apparently ruined triples for us there. :?
I didn't go either. Same thing, not worth getting ready, getting there at the crack of dawn, and then the shelves being wiped because someone took advantage of the system. I spoke with my inside source at Lowe's who told me they'd suspended the triples promotions until further notice.
Sigh.... I did go through a few times, but saved $345!!! I didnt get a ton of any one thing and it is all for my family so I hope that is not considered taking advantage.... I know some people who get all they can for resale, to me there is a difference.
No, to me that is not taking advantage. As long as it is for your family, that's what it is meant for in my opinion. It's the ones with multiple carts going, blatantly flaunting the rules, wiping out everything in sight, running you over trying to get in front of you like it's a competition, that are over the line in my opinion. It's supposed to be a fun way to save some money, not a war on the grocery store. I guess I have just seen some rudeness ramp up in the last little bit. :?
:iagree: I do know a few people who really go overboard at triples and sell the stuff. In my opinion......(yeah, I know all about opinions Jenn :lol that's wrong. I guess to each, his own. It doesn't bother me a bit so see someone like you, ljk, buying it for their own family. Heck, that's what I thought we were supposed to be doing. :mrgreen:
Which store were you at? I havent ventured out as yet, but I heard Kings Grant was only allowing one shop, I'm thinking of heading out to Fuquay, but don't want to if they're only allowing one, since DH stopped on his way home in Apex and got one shop in for me, so I don't want to go out to Fuquay to be told 'sorry, you used your shop for the day' LOL
I did K.Grant one time since they posted that they would only allow you once. Then I went directly to Fuquay and they let me do three more. BUT... I had a friend with me who did the SAME thing. On her last time through it wouldnt take her card, so she did three total in one day. (the cashier at FQ said she thought it was five times a day.) So I am not sure why the difference? The Holly springs store isnt much further from Fuquay... good luck, I hope you get some good deals.
It used to five times in a day. The fuquay store lets us. This must be new because we have always done more than three at fuquay, holly springs or at 1010. When we do have a LOT of coupons and use them all we take what will keep us for 2-3 weeks and give the rest to the good will up at 40/42. A lot of times stuff comes up free even if it is something we won't use we will get it anyway and give it to them.
