So I was shopping at Target, and the cashier handed me one of those instantly printed coupons...for Rogaine!
Either they have a code to punch in for bald guys in baseball caps, or Target's computer has correlated buying Rogaine with coffee filters, printer paper and earwax remover (the things I actually bought).
Has anybody else experienced this one?

That IS quite a coincidence....... ;D

I'm afraid I'd be a bit offended myself. :Xo!

A shaving cream coupon would be a totally different story!
-
That's pretty funny stuff. I'll have to stop into the next Target I happen to pass and see what they give me.

Probably from an earlier purchase on that same credit card....if you have ever bought anything shaving related...may have done it. But I still would have acted totally offended....ask for a trade for a shaving cream coupon, razors, something! >:D

I haven't had this ha[ppen to me yet and the wife and I frequent the local Target. I wouldn't be offended in the least. I'd probably just laugh about it.

How about asking to start carrying Headblade products for a change since Walmart stopped carrying them?
-
I don't think I'd be offended, although if I were mean and if I carried them with me, I'd give them a coupon for a fat club, or a make over.. that's mean. don't do it.. :Xo!

Walmart used to carry HeadBlade products? Sucks that they don't now. We need to start a petition to get them to sell HeadBlade again.
I have never used ear wax remover, does that work well? I use Q-Tips and car keys.

Wal-Mart is not known for being on top of the most stylish products.

No, it does not seem to work at all, so I probably have to go to the doctor tomorrow. I've had this before—if it's keeping my ear from draining after swimming, it's probably a big piece of wax that is not going to be dissolved by some over-the-counter solution, but I thought it would be worth trying.

This weekend at Target, the coupon was for mouthwash and toothpaste. Which sort of makes sense since I bought body wash, shaving gel, etc. Though I'm sure the cashiers would like a button for PRINT MOUTHWASH COUPON FOR THIS CUSTOMER sometimes. ;)

So now they're suggesting you have bad breath, but you're not offended at that? >:D
Seriously though, I think it's all pretty much random. Nothing to get offended about in any case. And the cashier certainly has no control over what prints out.

That's not too bad, they could have "targeted" you for Lydia Pinkham!

I agree with phigg here, the newer computer run systems at most stores now print out coupons based on your shopping history and choices. I don't see a problem with that, and it's the same as your computer tracking at home. Why would you even be offended or feel funny about it? :/O

Boots Chemist in the UK often print coupons at the checkout, and more than once I have been handed coupons for hair care products. Normally I just say thanks and bin them later, but on one occasion after being handed such a coupon I said to the cashier (with a big smile on my face) - "Are you sure about this?".
Finally, she actually looked at me more closely, laughed out loud, and said perhaps I could give it to someone else. All done in good spirit i hasten to add........

Good one Rob, lol, but it would probably depend on if his wife had previously shopped there as well. ;)
