Re: Costco Coupons? - 16 years ago

At my Costco I was purchasing something for which I didn't know there was a coupon. My checkout person said, "Oh, there's a coupon for that." She reached in her drawer, pulled out the coupon book, found the coupon, scanned it, tossed the coupon book back in the drawer.

Here's a hint to save an additional $5-- When you get to the order page--stop and don't do anything. Just wait, and after a minute or two you'll get a pop-up coupon offering 10% off "if you complete this order now."

Ah, no, they kill the mouse, and quite effectively and cleanly too. They're prebaited and reusable. I don't recall the brand, but I purchased them at Menard's.

Suicide Mouse (squeamish warning) - 16 years ago

With the cool weather, field mice are looking for someplace warm, and my basement is an inviting place. So I've put down three traps, all of them considerable distance from each other. This little bugger exited life on this earth in an unusual way. He first caught his hind leg in one of the traps and was unable to free himself. Apparently deciding to put himself out of his misery, he dragged h
