I am really hoping the FDA finds this sort of sunscreen is okay to use on kids. This sort of sunscreen makes my life as a parent of 3 so much easier! #applyingsunscreenissuchapain

Reply1

Cas July 14, 2014 at 12:56 pm MST

I imagine you are referring to the recent reports about the dangers. What I don’t understand is; when applying do parents not make sure the kids are not facing directly towards the spray? I use it on my kids and they both know not to inhale when I am spraying it on them; as well as I put my hand up as a shield when spraying

Reply1

Jaime July 14, 2014 at 3:00 pm MST

I agree, those warnings are kind of silly bc who isn’t careful spraying their kid… BUT I was just at the pool this week and saw a mom spray her kid carelessly. It was a little windy and i could see the spray misting up around his face as she did his arms.. and all while he was already half way in the pool!! It was ridiculous

That said, this up & up sunscreen also gets horrible ratings in the EWG database and is listed as one to avoid, so FYI for anyone considering this deal.

Guest_K July 14, 2014 at 12:49 pm MST

Is there a reason why you can only use one sunscreen coupon when purchasing 3 packs?

Reply1

Sabrina July 14, 2014 at 1:20 pm MST

A pack is considered “an item” regardless of how many are in it. It is scanned one time, even though there are 3 in it.

Reply1

Sabrina July 14, 2014 at 1:22 pm MST

Misread your onlinement, sorry. The coupon probable states limit one coupon per transaction.

Jennifer July 14, 2014 at 12:58 pm MST

I just printed off the schools list of items needed for kindergarten. They actually “requested” certain brands of items. Good thing I haven’t bought anything yet.

Ape July 14, 2014 at 1:03 pm MST

My daughter’s PreK4 has requested name brand as well for many items but I don’t think I’ll buy “Kleenex”. 😉 A tissue is a tissue for a bunch of 4 year olds.

Reply
Laura July 14, 2014 at 1:52 pm MST

I’m sure you can buy any brand. I can’t imagine they are that picky. And if so, I’m so glad we don’t go there! Goodness it should be enough that you buy supplies and show up to class.

Reply1

Lady July 14, 2014 at 2:27 pm MST

Yea the school list I have is brand specific but I don’t get the brands unless it’s a great deal.

Crayola – easy to get a great deal.

If they ask for “Kleenex” but I find a better deal with Puffs – I’m sending it.

A lot of parents are pressed for $$.

Reply

Natalie July 14, 2014 at 1:58 pm MST

I can actually understand that. As an art teacher, I’ve found that certain glue sticks work so much better than others & the same goes for markers and colored pencils. Sometimes it better to spend a little more than to buy the cheapest thing if the cheapest thing doesn’t do it’s job.

Reply1

karen July 15, 2014 at 11:23 pm MST

I so agree as a fellow teacher. While I appreciate the prices, hold out for the Elmer’s glue sticks, Ticonderoga pencils, and anything Crayola! Money well spent!

Reply

tilla ham July 14, 2014 at 2:18 pm MST

at my daughters private school, we are not allowed to buy any brand. we have to supply 60 pre sharpened ticondaroga pencils (the most expensive rarely a deal) zip lock certain size bags of that brand only, specific glue sticks never the cheap ones…it’s crazy, luckily my 2 highschoolers don’t have those sanctions

Reply1

Lady July 14, 2014 at 2:34 pm MST

60! That’s ridiculous and yea that’s an expensive brand pencil.

My friend’s kids’ school list asks for that brand but she absolutely can’t afford the extra cost of some brand names so she sends Staples brand pencils — the teachers have never onlineplained to her.

Atleast she & her husband are hardworking and responsible enough to provide their children with all supplies.

karen July 15, 2014 at 11:24 pm MST

Again, Ticonderoga are truly the best quality! Sharpen best and with fine erasers. You get what you pay for- as a teacher I see kids burn through the cheap pencils trying to sharpen them and tear holes in paper trying to erase,

Reply

Jill July 14, 2014 at 7:03 pm MST

My daughter’s list requires a 16 count box of Crayola Crayons. Which just annoys me because (doesn’t everyone know?) the 24 count are always cheaper.

Buy the 24 pack and take 8 out. Lol

That is ridiculous to make u buy name brand items! 😳

Reply1

karen July 15, 2014 at 11:26 pm MST

No it isn’t. As teachers our goal is to make the most of what you send and when you send the name brands suggested, it is with the intent that they last longest or do the best. The cheaper items sometimes really are not the best to use- ie pencils and gluesticks or crayons that are too waxy.

Reply

Caitlin July 14, 2014 at 12:59 pm MST

Does anyone know if they have any bottles of sunscreen lotion marked down yet? I find that we waste so much of the spray and it ends up not being a good deal for my family.

leanne July 14, 2014 at 1:56 pm MST

I agree ! I bought banana boat sport spray this year because there was a good deal.. never again I’d rather use the lotion

I bought the folders. I printed out two coupons and got six folders for free. I also bought printer ink. The HP ink had a sale with a $5 gift card and it was part of the 15% off Target cartwheel deal for electronics.

My son turns 4 on Wednesday so I went to get some of the tape. I grabbed four rolls of the Scotch Expressions masking tape. They were $2.99 each but rang up buy 3 get 1 free. There were no signs so I had no idea until I was at checkout. It was all I got so my total wasn’t even over $10 but I handed over my $5 off $10, the cashier took it without question and the machine did not beep. I paid $4.75 after tax and my tax rate is 8.875%! So I was very happy!

Sunscreen…Never tried the sprays but love the up n up sport lotion. Can anyone else chime in on these sprays. It’s an awesome deal but useless if no good. Reviews on T.online say they stain or didn’t work causing sunburn.

Amie July 14, 2014 at 4:13 pm MST

Check out this video: https://www.wvec.online/home/Consumer-Reports-warning-on-spray-on-sunscreens-266517491.html Consumer reports only reonlinemend 5 different sunscreens after testing more then 20 and this Up & Up sunscreen is one of them. The issue is not if the sunscreen prevents sunburn but more about the possibility of inhaling chemicals in the sunscreen when you spray it in the air. With anything, just be careful how you are applying it. I actually spray it on my hands and then rub it in for my kids to make sure I am covering them. It’s also great for spraying any parts in my daughters hair because she burns very easily and her scalp is hard to put lotion on. I also use the spray when I’m alone and taking the kids to the beach because it’s the only way to get my back. I just make sure I hold my breath so I’m not breathing anything in and I make sure no one is standing close to me.

I saw an article the other day that said melanoma was actually more prevalent in climates with less sun. Probably because people think clouds or cool temps mean you don’t need sunscreen.

Bought this brand last year on clearance. We are very fair skinned, freckled, red headed people and it has worked really well for us:)
Also, for anyone in the Polaris area(ohio) they had a lot of this sunscreen left as of 7-14 and it is ringing up the discount price.

Erin Coleen July 14, 2014 at 4:33 pm MST

Awesome deal. In my Target they were labeled as $13.99 even had a sign that stated $13.99 B3G1. I took it over to the red scanner machine and it rang up $4.19! Would never have known if I did not read your blog post. Thank you 🙂

I found a really nice igloo rolling cooler 70%. Regular 36.99 was 11.09! I sent a friend to her target she found a few on the shelf with the coolers not marked but she priced checked it. I wonder what else is ringing up 70% off?!!

Reply
Mel July 14, 2014 at 10:15 pm MST

Just wanted to share that I was only able to find 2 of the 3-packs of the sunscreen today. I was really hoping to be able to do the buy 3 get one free deal in addition to the $4.19 sale price. But I found that the deal also includes other up & up personal care items. If you find the same situation, you may want to look around the store for more sale signs. I was able to add two boxes of Qtips and one of them was free. Every once in a while all the stars align for me at Target. I was so happy to finally leave there happy. Usually they are onlinepletely sold out of all the good marked down items.

I went to target today for the up & up school supplies deal today and after the coupon my total came out to 0.04! Then the cashier took the coupon off and said I couldn’t use it and started reading the fine print I told her there was no minimum purchase requirement and she said oh well I can give you 0.85 off and I said why. She thought for a second so I said they were all up & up products so she said ok and gave them to me for the 0.04………I don’t understand why they try and fight it. Stay strong!
