People have been trying to use the $1 Duck brand packaging tape coupon from 11/20 S with the .99 (with in-ad coupon) Wexford brand packaging tape made by Duck…it’s a no go.  Don’t get mad, don’t say “but it’s made by Duck brand – it says so on the label.”  Coupon won’t scan and you will be wasting your time.  If Wags corporate gets loopy and somehow allows this, I will immediately post this as I have about 200 of these inserts.  So yes, I am very interested in this deal and would be more than pleased to push it if there was even the slightest chance it would work.

And now on to something complete different…When you win something from the giveaways you’re told to send your full name using the Contact Tab.  That email goes directly to me.  I then write that name on the envelope that gets placed in the locked drawer at Jewel.  When more than one person with the same first name enters, there is often confusion over who actually won and there have been instances where the wrong person picked up.  By putting your full name on the envelope, it not only eliminates this, but also prevents someone from reading the list of winners and then claiming to be one of them.  Obviously anyone could be called John, but John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt would really be a stretch.
