I’ve called Phenylephrine fake Sudafed ever since it was the one that became the easier of the real and fake to purchase. It’s never done anything for me
I’m in MS so real Sudafed has needed a Dr’s script for a long time
Woah! I had no idea other states were different. I’ve bought it in several states and it was always just behind the pharmacy counter and you had to show your idea and you were limited in how much you could buy, but you still didn’t need a prescription.
@dangeruss Since you quoted me I will reply. I posted it was not in my ad. Mistercheap decided to take a jab at me. At no time was I uncivil to him or to my4mainecoons.
Maybe you should scold them instead of me.
Your replies to both myself and Maine we less than friendly. The deal was valid when I posted it, now it is dead. My advice on a price check was the best I could offer, I have no control what items are posted in which ad, I only have my local ad to refer to. Maine offered a civil and sound reply, telling her it’s not your first rodeo was condescending, period. All you had to do was say thanks, I’m aware or whatever. No one really cares about how many rodeos you’ve ridden in. So Dange Russ doesn’t need to scold anyone.
@my4mainecoons The AMEX virtual cards that I received and what TCB are offering are sent out as a form of payment, not sold, and these virtual cards from AMEX don’t work at all.
I was successful using my low denomination AmEx gift cards from TCB paying my AT&T phone bill. It took me a long time to find a way to use them up. Even Amazon wouldn’t take them for some reason.
Was clipping my Sept. Fresh Pass offers and noticed where I had about 65/100 points banked towards 100, those points are now 0 (reset on 9/1). My ‘earned’ rewards are there but not the points, is that correct? you lose the points if you don’t hit 100 in a month to convert them to a reward?
correct. that’s why I never earn Rewards buying groceries. I never reach 100 in a month.
well, I guess I earned them on the 4x/3x points boosters. they really should give you a 60 to 90 days window, it you earn 50 points on 8/31 and they’re gone on 9/1, that’s a joke IMO.
they have been denying 95% of my Sams clubs purchases. why bother offering it?
Buy a gift card from them, best use of the bonuses. Cashback reports flawlessly from their TCB gift card offerings.
Gift cards are good, they do track accurately and quickly. But there aren’t many options to buy that are less than $50. I usually get a Dunkin, comes in $10 and $20 so have to get a $20 to work with this promo. If/when they catch on and raise the minimum on that one, it might be the end of this promo for me.
Big Lots has a $15 other amt. Often get that and wait for the coupons ie/20% off or $10/40 to stack it with in store.
@mistercheap Thanks, but already expired. Got a “limit reached” message after entering the code.
not surprised, that’s why I tagged a bunch of people hoping they’d be able to get in on it. they go quickly.
i have 4 RA’s in my town, plus many more in surrounding town. Sure some of them will close.
I would not be surprised if RA tries to do something like J&J is doing with the talcum to deal with the opioid lawsuits.
From a deal hunting stand point, any store closures in my area hurts. I’ve often hit just about all my stores in a 5-7 mile radius looking for MM clearance deals or weekly deals where it’s an oddball item that any given store has maybe 2 or 3 on the shelf. So if you don’t get there first and there’s other deal hunters, you may not score any at all. I’ve benefitted from circulating amongst all my stores in certain situations.
@mistercheap IDK now but on CFM he had the upcoming weekend’s qs on Tuesday before they came out. Dicecardsandcoups, 0695 and iclip4u (no idea where she is) get early inserts. Dice is in St. Louis and even though he’s further away from me than 0695 his mail reaches me faster.
Believe it or not, we’re starting to run low on AA and AAA batteries. I don’t take advantage of this offer every time, although I probably should. Time to stock up on batteries and recycle too.
You can lower your OOP by price matching the batteries price to Amazon (must be sold by Amazon) Walmart, Target, etc. (in store) Saves on the sales tax too. Just have to spend $10 to recycle 10 carts.
