Target: Easter 70% off

Stopped by Target today and all the Easter stuff was 70% off. Which was odd since its usually 75?? There were some candy exceptions that were only 50% off.

I picked up a couple things that I don't think will last until 90...but I figured I'd wait on most stuff to see if it was still around this weekend.

Jewel: Catalina Deals now working on Preferred Card Pricing

I have read at many reliable sources today that Jewel registers have received a recent update that now fixes the issues with catalinas being generated on regular price not sale price. Catalina's will now work the same way as all other stores and you will not get the catalina unless you spend enough based on the sale price.

This is very sad news as this was a great way to maximize your savings. Just wanted you all to have a heads up on this issue.

Thanks to Tracey at CW and Mashup Mom!
