I know there was someone on here last month that had their coupons stolen at a Walmart in Edmonton. I think it was the Capilano location.
Well, I got hit there today. I was getting something off the shelf and when I went to move on to the next item, I noticed 2 envelopes I had tucked into the outside of the binder were gone. They were there less than a minute earlier, my shopping list was tucked between them.
Nobody in sight. They're pretty good whoever they are.
did u check the bottom of the basket.. maybe they fell out.. on to the floor. slid under a shelf it happens.. otherwise im sorry it sucks.
I retraced, looked under, in the bottom of the cart, through the rest of the binder. The binder was upright, in a bag in the top of the cart. They were there when I stopped for that item, and gone when I turned around again.
Wow-there's some real nervy a$$h@les out there!I'd have gone to customer service,and asked to talk to security.....they might have had video surveillance on that aisle.I would have described my binder as my "planner" just to make it seems less like "bfd,it was only coupons".Theft is theft-it could have been cheques you were going to mail after shopping :(
That terrible! So sorry for you :( Let me know what you're looking for to replace them and I'll see what I have.
Thanks for the reminder to keep my coupons close or hidden. I get lack sometimes and turn my back on my cart.
That's horrible, ever since this being a rampant thing. I'm very aware of who's around me and when I think I'm being stalked I make sure to announce that if anyone was to try steal my binders, they would get a swift punch to the throat. Then I'm all alone again. Works for me.
oh you just made me laugh so hard!!! Maybe I need to try this theory out...LOLQuote:

So here is the story.... by chance I was home on Thursday during they day time.. there she is doing her usual prowl of our neighbourhood. Mind you all this while I thought she lived around the place.. our examiner person was delivering and here she was at my mail box taking my flyers and paper out of there.. I was watching this from the window and she didnt seem to notice.. as she was walking away I opened the door and asked her what she was doing.. so she tells me she was helping the person in front to deliver.. so I didn't think much of it.. untill I noticed my papers were gone.. I caught up to the person delivering and told them that this lady forgot to put papers in my mail box.. he seemed a bit surprised.. when I described her to the paper guy he told me that she had approached him a couple of times and requested for .. the coupons inserts... her story was she was poor and knew a lot of people didn't use them in this hood.. so he was giving them away... to her.. he didn't think anyone would notice them missing until he got a complain last week about not getting these coupons.. so this week.. he refused to give them to her... and see this is what this witch does... steals.... how I know she is on here... well world sure is a small place.. I ran into her at the 7 eleven today by my house... taking the inserts out and putting them in one paper...guess she didnt recognise me cause I had my hair straight and was wearing sun glasses. so I asked her what she was doing and God's honest truth she goes to me... oh just getting the coupons.. I coupon and the ones I don't use I trade.. so pretending I didn't know what she was talking about.. I asked her how and what she was doing.. and sure enough.. she gave me this site.. my DH who was with me.. just stood.. there mouth open ... asking me why I didn't confront her.. I told him.. because now I know what she looks like... and.. do not worry I will reveal who she is.. to you all soon... just let me catch her one more time in my hood...
Crazy story!!!Quote:

I have more of the Raid, but if anyone has 1 or 2 of the OFF tearpads left, that was my last one, and Daisyfire was promised it. Lord knows I have enough OFF! for an armt - literally.
BTW, moquito coils are $4.99 at LD, 2 $5 wub2 inserts gets them free. I now have enough of those for at least this summer and next at the cabin. I have a few of both of the $5 coupons left too for anyone who wants.
