its official I cant shop with both kids! last night I ran it with both kids and bought 3 items. Managed to get my items load the car and leave my binder IN THE CART. Stopped this morning but no one had turned it in- and I am one of those people who talk ALL qs with them!! Sad part is I am most upset over just a few items we use all the time- my 3/1 pepsi 2 liters qs, pampers qs, 4/1 purina ips, 1/1 no nonsense and my 5/1 Iams qs that were good till 6/09!! Lots of the qs are ones that show up fairly frequently but a couple of those were harder to get and until sunday I dont even have qs to trade to try to get more!! It just sucks I was really hoping someone would have turned it in. this is the second time I have done this because I had the kids with me- first time I got lucky and got it back- this time I guess I learned my lesson. however if anyone shops at the ballston ave saratoga pc and sees a bright blue with black trip accordian type file please see if you can hijack it back for me??

Sorry guys had to rant to someone and most people would think I was nuts being upset over "just a bunch of coupons"

Bless your heart! I KNOW how hard it is to shop with kids and try to keep your brain straight! I have left my purse at various store 4 times in the last 2 years for the same reason. I have been extremely fortunate that someone has always turned it in without taking anything out. The kids are always talking, asking for stuff, trying to wonder off and my little guy is trying to grab things from the shelves or the cart, grabbing my list, my coupons, etc. It's a wonder we ever make home without getting lost because I am so brain numb by the end of the trip! I think I would die if I lost my coupon box. I feel so badly for you. It takes so much time to start over from scratch and lose all the really good coupons you had.

If you will PM me your address, I would love to send you a RAOK. I don't have those great Qs that you mentioned losing, but I could at least send your an envie to get you start back! Please PM me if you are interested! I would love to help.

I am so sorry to hear abou tyour binder,I hope it shows up.

[debbiedee8]

I am so sorry, pm me your addy if you would like and I'll send you some as a RAOK. I don't have all those good ones but I'd be happy to help out if I can.

[tookerdl]

You guys are too sweet!!

[abmitch01]

arghh, that's awful. My qs are really low since everything recently expired but I will be putting some aside for you as they roll in. I don't use baby stuff, so I'll def have some of those.

[abmitch01]

hey, you know what? I have an extra black plastic accordion file that's 8.5x11 paper, no binder part, though. Found it in my son's room yest, we had bought the wrong one for school. It's new and I have no use for it. DBF lives outside Saratoga, it wouldn't be hard to get it to you. Let me know if you want it.

[therbel]

Hope you find it!

[massachoomommy]

That's awful! I've lost other things while shopping with my toddler, but nothing that serious. I think I have a bunch of pampers qs that we're not going to use. Just pm me your addy and I'll send you an envie. **hugs!**

[smiley071684]

I'm sorry Denise. That's horrible. PM me your address and I will send you some q's too. I don't know what pet q's are good ones so just let me know. I don't have pets so I have all of them.

[Doodlebug]

So sorry!! Sending you an envie!!

[AllisonLiven]

Awww! I know exactly how u feel...This same thing just happened to me on Sunday...I wish i had some coups to send u... I'm so sorry...It's ok to cry...I did...

[cantrelax]

I know I am new and no one knows me, but I am so sorry as well!! That is where I do most of my shopping and I plan on going tomorrow, heck, I might even drive through the parking lot today to see if I see it for you! You should definately call back today to see if anyone found it since yesterday!!

[tookerdl]

I stopped on the way in this morning and asked again but no luck- however if anyone else has lost thier coupon holder there- this pc has like SIX that have not been claimed.

Catrelex- WELCOME!! can I ask do you live in saratoga or near? I am in corinth. I have not checked the other thread but if you havent done so make sure you post in the "who shops there" post- there is a sticky for it at the top of the forum. Thanks for checking for me!

[tookerdl]

BTW- being a coupon freak on the way home from work last night I stopped at PC and a grandunion and raided the blinkies and tear pads to start my stash back up

I'll put together something for you this w/e. Do you use the baseball card pages?

[lgoodwin]

PM me and I will some some of my extras that you maybe can use.
Also, post that IP address for the Purina. I didnt see a link here?
When I get ink I will print it out for you and send it to!!
So sorry. It would be worse than losing my purse!!
I have one of the expandable 11 X 6 approx. I don't see them anymore and I don't remember where I got it?? Had it for years, but I love how the BOTTOM expands too, like an accordian from top to bottom. The newer ones just expand at the top but the bottom is glued small.
Good luck in your search to restart your coupon stacks!!!

I drove through but didn't see anything I am so sorry.
I am in Ballston Spa.
I used to use an accordian folder but switched to the baseball card type things and LOVE it. It takes a while to switch everything over but it makes my shopping much easier. I used to averages a savings of only 18%, but since I started reading here and using my new binder I average 30%.

Welcome!! I am in Ballston Spa too.

[sigmasal]

I shop there (I'm in Saratoga) and my mil works there so I'll ask her to keep her eye out for you!

[lilac48604]

I've lost mine right before the K-mart super doubles. I was so depressed!! I know how you feel and I hope someone turns it in.

Put a lost and found ad on craigslist. Maybe someone will see it and their conscience will get the better of them.

[tookerdl]

DH put a new spin on it tonight for me- he says its a RAOK of a sort- that must be someone needed them more than me- so I gave them a gift. Much better way of thinking than that someone would have taken it you know?

[lgoodwin]

that's how I look at some things when I lose them or they are taken.
Especially my FOOD at work!! Obviously someone was hungry!!
But, in the middle of night when nothing is open or near it makes me hungry...

I am going to Sams to get some printer ink, found out it's much cheaper there!!
