My Smiley Face Addiction…
Alright, so I have something to admit… well, you see, I really like those darn smiley face guys! I have no clue why. I just think they’re the funniest things ever! And I’m so excited because now that I’m on WordPress, I can use them to my hearts content!
There are several different smiley faces you can create depending on how you feel. Oh and the smiley faces I’m referring to are really called Emoticon. I guess calling them smiley faces doesn’t really make much sense since they’re not all smiling.
Alright, so if you are a smiley face Emoticon addict too, then look below for text codes to create whatever emotion you feel:
A wink is a semi-colon and right parentheses 😉
A frown is a colon and a left parentheses 🙁
A colon and capitol P is this 😛
A colon and capitol D is this 😀
Laughing is colon then lol then colon 😆
Puzzled is a colon then question mark 😕
Open mouthed is colon then lower case o 😮
Googly eyed is an eight then capitol O 😯
Rolling eyes is colon then roll then colon 🙄
Blushing is colon then oops then colon 😳
Lightbulb is colon then idea then colon 💡
Red eyes is colon then twisted then colon 😈
Crying is colon then cry then colon 😥
No smile is colon then vertical line 😐
Sunglasses is an eight then right parentheses 8)
Green guy is colon then mrgreen then colon 
Scowling is colon then x 😡
Exclamation is colon then ! then colon ❗
Question is colon then ? then colon ❓
And just for fun (well, really to satisfy my addiction to these stinkin’ smiley faces Emoticons) let us know how you felt on your last couponing adventure by using an Emoticon.
…Aren’t they fun to use? Maybe a little?
you are too cute collin. i have the addiction too. 🙂
lol:
I think you meant this 😆
:0
I think you meant maybe this.. 😮
I don’t know why, but I love these faces too. 😉
A little 😳 and 🙁 and 😮 – my daughter threw up while we were shopping the other day. I had NO clue she was sick and she just lost it all ALL over the cart and herself and the isle. We couldn’t quite get out of there fast enough and I couldn’t put stuff back as I had coupons that were expiring (is that awful or what?). I did save $48 and only spent $13! Thankfully my little girl is feeling much better now!
LoL! dont feel aweful same situation happened to me a few weeks ago with that playskool ball deal, but it was my 2 year old boy who had an accident! If you couldve seen me paying for my urine soaked ball! I had to ask him to scan it so he didnt touch it! but that is life with little ones! hahahaa you gotta laugh at it sometimes! 🙂
awful sorry! 😉
😥 just wanted to see if I did it
Okay…I feel dumb now, it didn’t work correctly for me! Guess I don’t know what I’m doing?
YOU are outta control, woman!! lol
awww so cute. my sister said yesterday she went to use her coupons and some lady behind her started grunting and saying how much she hated coupon ladies!
🙄
I just got back from Target and definitely feel 😀 I got 2boxes of Kashi Go Lean Crunch and 4 individual Kashi cereal cups for FREE (thanks for the post earlier!!), 2 Axe gift sets for $.75 each, and 2 baby toys on clearance. It was a great night!!! Thanks for all you do Collin!
😳
I spilled my 4 dollar coffee in the aisle! then I went to use my coupons and could not find my dunkin donughts coupon! I was a Hot Mess! haahhaa and frazzled to say the least. but I got great deals 3 bags of dunkin donughts coffee and 10 smartones for 24.00! woot<3
😳 and a little 😀 and even a little
…. While checking out at Wal-Mart, the cashier took forever to scan my 30+ coupons.. and then when some coupons would not go through, she would have to go get a manager to push them through…. needless to say, the 4 or 5 people behind me in line moved to different lines and were out of the store by the time I got finished….. I was proud of my coupons though.. and just kept thinking about how much money I saved

I have a horrible addiction when it comes to using smiley faces, especially when I find an awesome coupon! Not just on the computer though…. I don’t like to restrict myself to my over-used emoticon habit! That’s right… sadly whenever I find an awesome deal, (Mainly on here might I add!) I have to Text almost everyone I know about it as well, along with about five different smiley faces that are either winking, smiling, or crying from sheer joy! Out of the hundred or so texts I send, about 99 of them come back with a reply about what a dork I am, but who cares? I don’t want to keep all of these amazing deals only to myself, I like to give! 😉 …..Oh my gosh, see what I mean? It is totally habit forming to use those stupid things!
Love the reference guide though, thanks for posting! I needed to escape from my ho-hum box of smiles and winks! Now it’s on to the big leagues! 8″
LOL, Oh my gosh, I still can’t be cool no matter how hard I try!! Okay, here we go… one more try! 8)
I never knew how to make green guys 😉
:* I LOVE to save $$$!
hhmm usually that combo makes a kissy face…
😛
;D 😀 Hmm… can’t tell if that worked. But I’m ecstatic… hit up a shoe store closing (Rack Room Shoes). Everything 70 percent off lowest ticket price. Got two pairs of Nike tennis shoes for $35. Retail 125 dollars… YAY! ;D
wow! awesome!! that is the best deal ever im
i am a smiley addict too, but hey- we could have worse problems 😀 😛 😆
oh i actually had a nice cashier today at cvs!! i couldnt believe it! 😮 she said she played “the game” too and i enjoyed talking to her… she said she like seeing young people trying to save money and using coupons with sales… she was nice! 🙂

Walgreens 2/$3 coupon…plus 2 coupons for $1.00 off…. = 0.50 cents each. Rock On! Thanks Collin!!
:X I looked everywhere for those little first aid kits. Was going to go to CVS today and realized in my rushing around yesterday I had managed to lose all FOUR of my $1 off coupons so it doesn’t matter that I can’t find the kits……………….
That was supposed to be a “scowl”. I typed the : then the X and then do you hit enter or what? I’m an old lady! Ha Ha Ha
: then x ( colon then x ) 8)
😡
(:x)
😳 because I had 14 renuzit air fresheners in my cart. But in my defense, I got 5 of them free 😀
🙄 The managers at Walgreens think you can’t use a BOGO sale with a BOGO in-store promotion.
And 😳 I now have 9 cans of Oust!
Mitchell!! TAKE THEM BACK!!! YOU are the customer!! MAKE SURE YOU are the one in CONTROL!!! I’m so sorry… I have been there!! I’ve gotten braver though with practice and will not let them make me buy stuff I have to pay for!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
Yup, take them back! I normally just walk out if cashiers try anything like that… try again later! 🙂
🙄
wanted to try the rolling eyes – that is a new one for me;)
😉 My shopping trip went great! My Wal-Mart had the Tag junior books on clearance for $5.00 making them just $1 after coupon!!! Woo Hoo! Plus I scored a Barbie Mermaid that was on clearance from $20 down to $5, great Wal-Mart trip!
😀 This is how I feel when I read all the great Deals you post! I’m as addicted to smileys as I am to checking your website a few times a day! 😆

Does anybody know if you can pair a kroger coupons with a manufactures coupon? It say’s its a manufacturer’s coupons but only redeemable at kroger so does that mean i can stack it with another coupons?
😀
Tonight I went to Walgreens (our store has BOGO!) and got the following for $1.25 before tax (used a $10 RR from the Aquafina water deal last week):
4 bottles Aveeno shampoo/conditioner BOGO
2 bottles Aveeno Positively Radiant Cleanser BOGO
1 Stacy’s Pita Chips (free Facebook coupon)
2 bottles Vitamin Shampoo/Conditioner (clearance $1.89)
2 packages Loreal hair dye (red)
1 package Loreal hair dye (blonde) — $3.87 (-$6.00 coupons= overage)
4 bottles Sally Hansen nail polish BOGOHO – clearance $1.59 – $.50 coupon – 50% off second item)
2 bottles Sally Hansen strong nail BOGOHO – clearance, coupon, BOGOHO deal! 🙂
;mrgreen;
I L-O-V-E my Walgreens cashier! She is the sweetest, the nicest, the most helpful lady…She always allows me to do as many transactions as I need and then gets excited when I leave paying only tax 🙂 Tonight I gave her coupons for free stuff 😉
My WAGS cashier is so nice, too….wish I could say that about the Target cashiers. CVS is a toss-up around here 🙂
Great Walgreens trip today- my favorite cashier was working. Target: 3 kellogg’s- 2 bars & 1 crisp, 2 Kashi bowls & 2 boxes Kashi Go Lean crunch with flax (I am ADDICTED to this one!) for 1.78. FYI the 3rd “Target” coupon does not work on the free box of Kellogg’s. The computer shows a red box stating so- RATS! 😛
I used three $1/1 target q’s today, worked fine. Also used an additional $1/1 crackers MC I had along with the other $1/2 target q from the paper!!! Got $4.25 off the total which was only $4.78!!! THREE boxes of crackers for .53 cents!!
Too cute!! 🙂

😥 only b/c some man came over and paid for my groceries! Said he’s had a good year and wanted to do something for someone. I kept telling him he didn’t need to, that I really didn’t need the help……he wouldn’t take no for an answer. I told him to at least let me scan my coupons first…….after that he told me to go back and get more b/c I was getting it all for practically nothing anyway! I, of course, didn’t go back for more…but I was fighting back the tears b/c of his kindness. Made my day!
Awe how sweet was that, I helped the bus driver get an elderly lady off the bus in front of Walmart, she kept thanking me for my help. She really needed it the sweet lil’ lady was weak and shaky so I went and got a cart for her to hang onto. Thanked me 3 times kept thinking hope some helps my gramma if she needed it. glad to hear someone else did something nice,just because.
How nice was that… my family has been greatly blessed over the past couple months as well. I can’t wait to pay it forward. 🙂 God is good!
Well what a better person to help than someone you can see is actually trying to be financially responsable.. what a wonderful thing to do!
