When you are contemplating putting your crabby 3 year old in the car for one last trip to Target for Tuna when its bedtime

[Wednesday]

We don't even eat tuna and I got 20+ cans to hang onto for food drives this winter. Then I went to Walmart with my friend who just moved by me from across the country and she went to grab tuna from the shelf I said, didn't you see the target coupon. She didn't notice them so now I'm selling them to her for cost $.10, wishing I had gotten more!

I was kinda addicted too because I just had oral surgery so I also took the following day off of work to rest. And so I rested for a while then went to Target to hit the 75% off home items and of course some coupon items. I forgot that I'm not supposed to drive with the meds I'm taking.

When you get out of the house with a 3 year old and two 7 month olds just to see what they have on clearance!

Now that is an addiction. I have a 3 yr old and only 1 7-month old so I somewhat feel your pain. But with this new "couponing addiction", I actually look forward to shopping again!

when you take a 10, 8,6,3, AND 20 mos TWINS to target just to get a clearanced backpack... IS there therapy for this sort of thing??

No, mom26, but there are some really good drugs for it

you guys are too funny, i find myself draging a wandering 3ywear old, a 1 year old who won't sit DOWN! and a hungry 2 month old thru both targets and stopping at a few cvs's on the way home, yes i do think we need therapy for this behavior!!!

Anything to knock me out for about 8 hours??... I'd love to get some sleep someday Ohhh but then I'd miss some clearance sales and that would be REAL bad!

When my ob found out my twins were both boys, she told me she'd give me a scrip for valium when they came out Now I see why!!!

Ang-I am lucky to have very compliant kids. My three year old is smart enough to just be very compliant at a store because he may get a piece of gum or something. He holds on to hope. Also, mom is a lot calmer when shopping than when she is cleaning The twins are just glad to be seeing somebody besides my crazy self all day.

Now that I have gotten my 3 y/o really cheap gum, fruit snacks (which I would never buy at reg. price), and free/cheap drinks (like the tropicana squeeze or the propel coupon), he always says "

"mom, your gotta COU-pon for dat?"

I love it!

When you 16 y-o daughter finally "gets it" and hands you a stack of printed coupons from the internet. She found them all by herself!! And printed out some really good ones too!!!

When you hear your 9yo repeating..."Coupons are Money" and he starts bringing you anything with a dashed border around it!!!

Mamma was soooo proud!!!
