*kaozenn has quit (Client Quit) | Aug 09 02:29 | |
DaemonFC | Just got back from a mini-couponing trip. $49 and got it down to $12. | Aug 09 02:31 |
*DaemonFC ordered 20 more coupons from ebay and hopes he gets them in time to hit that sale again. | Aug 09 02:31 | |
schestowitz | I got surroudn system for almost half price at ebay | Aug 09 02:36 |
schestowitz | still boxed, slightly used for perhaps a month or so, works well | Aug 09 02:36 |
DaemonFC | My mom came by on her way to work and dropped off an entire bag of complete coupon inserts. | Aug 09 02:36 |
DaemonFC | Not only that, but they spanned the last 4 Sunday papers! | Aug 09 02:36 |
DaemonFC | Lots of good stuff in there | Aug 09 02:37 |
DaemonFC | I found 6 of the $1 off 6-pack of 24 ounce Diet Pepsi. Noticed Kroger was doing a Buy 5 Save $5, and so I took the 6 Diet Pepsi coupons (Brings them to $1.49 each) and four 50 cent off coupons for some toothpaste that was normally $2.50 (brings them down to $1 each). | Aug 09 02:38 |
DaemonFC | I liked that Diet Pepsi deal so much that I got on ebay and ordered 20 more of those for $1.99. | Aug 09 02:38 |
DaemonFC | If they get here on or before the 14th, I can go back and hit that sale. 20 items = $20 off from the sale + $20 off from the coupons. | Aug 09 02:39 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Aug 09 02:39 |
DaemonFC | And I'll have several months worth of Diet Pepsi stored under the bed and on top of the fridge. | Aug 09 02:39 |
DaemonFC | Cashiers in this town tend to remember me. | Aug 09 02:40 |
DaemonFC | One time, I showed up for a sale with over 100 coupons to match it. | Aug 09 02:40 |
*s-141 (~PircBot@dsl-67-204-62-175.acanac.net) has joined #techrights | Aug 09 02:41 | |
DaemonFC | That's how I found out about Walmart's cash registers stopping the transaction after $50 worth and calling a manager. | Aug 09 02:41 |
*s-141 has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Aug 09 02:41 | |
DaemonFC | It brings the line to a halt, but the manager will override the register. | Aug 09 02:41 |
DaemonFC | They're just making sure that people aren't going through using tons of photocopies or something. | Aug 09 02:41 |
DaemonFC | Understandable. Those don't get redeemed, so the store eats them. :P | Aug 09 02:42 |
DaemonFC | So I count up my coupons before I go in the store, and make sure the face value is under $50. | Aug 09 02:43 |
DaemonFC | I'd rather make two trips than wait for a manager to come to the front while people behind me in line are getting pissed off. | Aug 09 02:43 |
DaemonFC | I managed to take some things off my S&S shipment for September because I found a better deal on them today. | Aug 09 02:45 |
DaemonFC | I have several Amazon accounts so I can reuse their coupons more than once. | Aug 09 02:46 |
DaemonFC | They don't seem to have caught on so far. | Aug 09 02:46 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, I just like to undermine their systems. I'll cut out thousands of coupons I don't use and go around the stores planting stacks of them next to the items. | Aug 09 02:48 |
DaemonFC | The next hundred people that buy that item get a discount. | Aug 09 02:48 |
DaemonFC | Economics teaches us that this has a stimulative effect on the economy because it increases the disposable income of each person by a small amount. | Aug 09 02:49 |
DaemonFC | Product moves faster, more people are employed, and it's private businesses that end up funding that. | Aug 09 02:50 |
DaemonFC | I'm perfectly happy with that arrangement. | Aug 09 02:50 |
*Cirrus_Minor has quit (Quit: Do not disturb, Already disturbed) | Aug 09 02:54 | |
DaemonFC | P&G is generally a company I avoid. | Aug 09 02:56 |
DaemonFC | They like to send out a lot of 25 cent off coupons, but their products are always the most expensive. | Aug 09 02:56 |
DaemonFC | Unless you can stack them on a sale, they're no good. | Aug 09 02:56 |
DaemonFC | They'll sell a 28 ounce bottle of Dawn dish soap for $2.99, so the coupon only brings them down to $2.74. | Aug 09 02:57 |
DaemonFC | But if you can stack them on one of Kroger's Buy 5 Save 5 sales, that brings it down to $1.74, and suddenly that's pretty reasonable. | Aug 09 02:58 |
DaemonFC | So I gold on to their coupons and if there's a sale, I use them, and if not, I throw them away, keep using stuff out of my stockpile, and clip them again next month. | Aug 09 02:58 |
DaemonFC | *hold | Aug 09 02:58 |
DaemonFC | razor coupons....score! :) | Aug 09 03:03 |
*DaemonFC keeps the good ones and tosses the rest in the pile to dump at Walmart. | Aug 09 03:03 | |

DaemonFC | They just want you to buy more of them. | Aug 09 04:14 |
DaemonFC | :) | Aug 09 04:14 |
DaemonFC | These companies are getting a lot greedier than they've ever been before. | Aug 09 04:17 |
DaemonFC | $9 each? Really? | Aug 09 04:17 |

DaemonFC | There are generic compatible heads that cost less, but you can't get them in the Sensitive Gum softness variety, and one of them nearly killed me. | Aug 09 04:20 |
DaemonFC | The head flew off while I was brushing and got caught in my throat. | Aug 09 04:20 |
DaemonFC | I've never had that happen with the original product, so I decided to just give up and buy the official replacement heads. | Aug 09 04:21 |

schestowitz | iophk: they're quite up high | Aug 09 11:00 |
schestowitz | The nevigation is done remotely with the missiles | Aug 09 11:01 |
JimmyCarter | "We have gone a long way down the road of creating a situation where we are creating more enemies than we are removing from the battlefield. We are already there with regards to Pakistan and Afghanistan," he said. | Aug 09 11:01 |

DaemonFC | If you don't want to stand there and figure it up, you can just use a rule of thumb. The higher the face value of the coupon, the smaller the product size you probably want. | Aug 09 12:19 |
MinceR | do they not print the unit price on the price sign (in small print)? | Aug 09 12:19 |
DaemonFC | The amount of the discount is a static figure. If you take a $3 coupon that works on $5 product, you're saving a larger percentage than if you use it on the $15 product. | Aug 09 12:19 |
DaemonFC | But if you have a $1 coupon, you're probably better off going with the $15 product. | Aug 09 12:20 |
DaemonFC | They do, but it doesn't adjust for the coupons they send out. :) | Aug 09 12:20 |
MinceR | ic | Aug 09 12:20 |
MinceR | might want to use a smartphone or PDA to calculate on the spot :> | Aug 09 12:20 |
DaemonFC | I do. :) | Aug 09 12:20 |
DaemonFC | Like, they sent me out a bunch of coupons for laundry detergent. | Aug 09 12:21 |
DaemonFC | The coupon says "$2 off any bottle.". | Aug 09 12:21 |
MinceR | :) | Aug 09 12:21 |
DaemonFC | So I would rather get the $5.97 bottle that does 32 loads than the $14.97 bottle that does 96 loads. $3.97 / 32 = about 12.4 cents per load, but $12.97 / 96 = 13.5 cents per load. | Aug 09 12:22 |
DaemonFC | That's not the most extreme example I've seen though. | Aug 09 12:23 |
DaemonFC | I had a stack of Arm & Hammer cat litter coupons that were $3 off any box. | Aug 09 12:23 |
DaemonFC | The 14 pound box is $6.34, the 37 pound box is 13.97. | Aug 09 12:24 |
DaemonFC | $3.34 / 14 = 23.8 cents per pound, but $10.97 / 37 = 29.6 cents per pound. | Aug 09 12:24 |
DaemonFC | If you're not couponing (which is a bad idea because you'll get eaten alive by high prices), you'd be better off to go with the bigger box. | Aug 09 12:25 |
DaemonFC | So, I run into this all the time. | Aug 09 12:26 |
DaemonFC | It *is* annoying to stand there and calculate the unit price on dozens of items in a shopping trip, but it's worse to leave the store after paying an extra $20. :) | Aug 09 12:26 |
DaemonFC | It would undermine the point of taking a stack of coupons to save money. | Aug 09 12:26 |

DaemonFC | They're designed to get you to come back and spend more money. But, you don't want to spend more money, you want to spend less money. | Aug 09 12:28 |
DaemonFC | So you should come back in and use your rewards on more things that earn rewards. Stack coupons whenever you can. | Aug 09 12:28 |
DaemonFC | A lot of the time, I leave the store with more money than I came in with, *and* the items I went there for. | Aug 09 12:29 |
DaemonFC | They set things up so that every once in a while you can make a few bucks off of them. | Aug 09 12:32 |
DaemonFC | It's not a mistake. They do it because you're likely to buy more than you planned on and then they eat into your savings. | Aug 09 12:32 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, I worked retail long enough to know the psychology the stores use on people. How to work their systems. A lot of stupid things that customers try to get away with. | Aug 09 12:33 |

DaemonFC | If you do it on your own, you get yelled at for being a dumbass that allowed the return. If you call a manager, they'll approve it. | Aug 09 12:35 |

Someone needed to be taken of #heroin and the dr, Huamg advised #ibogaine , a substance that could be very helpful in kicking the habit but it was banned because some #patent had expired and so no manufacturer could make a profit off it. | Aug 09 21:21 |
schestowitz | I'm not a #patentlawyer but my understanding is that patents are used to prevent any one other than the patentholder to make a decent profit off of something. Seems like #propaganda to me. | Aug 09 21:21 |
schestowitz | And I actually liked those shows. well, there was some #waterboarding in the main show #l&o show. | Aug 09 21:21 |

DaemonFC | One thing that keeps unemployment high is low interest rates from the Federal Reserve. Since they've promised to keep them low until unemployment improves, the plutocrats know that the cheap and easy money will keep flowing as long as they don't hire people. | Aug 09 22:22 |

DaemonFC | Ransomware that pretends to be an FBI warning locks users out of their Microsoft Windows computer and demands hundreds of dollars wired to the criminals to unlock it (from untraceable payment systems), while displaying child pornography. When the user "pays their settlement", the malware might let them back into their account. (But that copy of Windows obviously can't be trusted.

DaemonFC | The proper response is to format Windows off the disk and replace it with GNU/Linux and Free/Open Source software, preferably before you visit the wrong website which takes advantage of Microsoft's swiss cheese operating system to install this garbage. | Aug 09 22:42 |
DaemonFC | Hopefully, the FBI catches the piece of filth that created this malware, but since Windows is Windows, that's only going to fix the problem until next week, when some other malicious person does something similar. | Aug 09 22:42 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft seems to think lawsuits are more effective at stopping botnet malware operators than fixing Windows. They're certainly more cost effective, since it shifts the problem onto ISPs and users. | Aug 09 22:42 |
