FAQ wiki or Deals wiki or Coupons wiki
- Do not ask (even in a covert way) for any coupon that has been scanned or discuss any coupon that is not used for its intended purpose. This goes for ALL scanned – this is what ALTERED means – this will cause this thread to shut down, per Moderator warning.
- Do not post directly to Ebay auctions. It is considered self-promotion because the mods don't have a way to verify if you are the seller or not.
- Do not discuss or promote unethical and/or illegal activities with coupons or GCs (i.e. using expired coupons, using fake coupons, etc). Do not post expired coupons. Do not discuss ways to use expired manufacturer's coupons.
- Do not discuss ways to misuse the true intent of a manufacturer coupon.
- Target.com has changed to the E-Centives coupon printing system where you have to download special software that keeps track of what you printed, like bricks coupons. The coupons print out directly to your printer and now have a limit of 2 prints per computer.
- In keeping with SD rules, multiple per pages (MPPs) coupons ARE NO LONGER ALLOWED.
- No begging for coupons allowed. You may ask where a coupon originated but that is it. Requests for Coupon Trades should be directed here.
- Finally - Mod Alert any fighting! The mods would rather catch it in the beginning, versus going back 5 pages to see what happened.
How do I let someone know they've posted a no-no?
- If you feel it would be beneficial and helpful to the thread as a whole, go ahead and post an answer. But if you need to correct someone on an etiquette issue or on coupon use, try PM'ing them first. That avoids embarrassment and negative posts. The mods are watching our thread closely--we want to keep things helpful and pleasant.
When you make a post you need to avoid doing a copy and paste of the work of someone else. It is stealing to copy and paste things directly from other sites such as the TT site.
We have been contacted by them and asked nicely to stop doing that.
If you see good coupons or deals just we love to have you share them with us, just be sure to rewrite them before posting.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How do I contact Target Guest Relations?
- (800) 440-0680
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- Questions, Comments and/or Complaints about Target/Super Target and/or Team Members.
- When sending a Team Member compliment and/or complaint, keep in mind that ETL's get share-pay bonuses, while Team Members don't. Stores are responsible for store-controlled things like clean restrooms and sales floors, carts and hand baskets available, response time to the jewelry and electronics counters and Guest call buttons, etc. Also, use a different E-mail/name each time, else after 2-3 complaints they just refer you to the Store Team Leader (STL).
What is Target's Price Match Policy?
Target stores will now match prices of other stores with a physical ad of the competing store, as well as products from the Target.com website. Please refer to their official price match policy at their website for additional details and/or stipulations: Target's Low Price Promise [target.com]
When does Target do their markdowns?
Mark Down Schedule - Please note that the list may not be entirely accurate, as some stores have reportedly made changes to this schedule and other stores may be days (or weeks) behind schedule!
- Monday - Electronics, Kids Clothing and Stationery (Cards, GiftWrap, etc.)
- Tuesday - Domestics, Women's Clothing, Pets and Market (food items)
- Wednesday - Men's Clothing, Toys, Health and Beauty, Lawn & Garden items
- Thursday - House Wares, Lingerie, Shoes, Sporting Goods, Movies, Music, Books, Decor and Luggage
- Friday - Auto, Cosmetics, Hardware, & Jewelry
Is there a different markdown schedule for the holidays?
Holiday Clearance Schedule Please note that with the last few holidays, stores are not as rigid with this schedule and can be a day or two ahead or behind. Bagged holiday candy is slower to be marked down than other holiday merchandise.
- 50% off day after holiday for three days
- 75% off fourth day after holiday for three days
- 90% off seventh day after holiday for 1-2 days.
Why are some items tagged "as is" instead of clearance?
They are items that were received in to the store but are not stocked in that particular store. It happens occasionally.
What's the "inside scoop" on Target's pricing policies?
First, Target is split into 2 sections. Hardlines and Softlines.
Softlines: All clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories, and infant items
Hardlines: Everything else
Softlines have set days for mark-downs. Hardlines do not.
At my store, the softline schedule is:
Monday - Boys, Girls, and Infants (the non-clothes infants (aka infant gondolas) may or may not go down on this day, a majority of the items will, but can go down on different days).
Tuesday - Ready To Wear (aka Womens, Juniors, and Plus)
Wednesday - Mens
Thursday - Lingerie, Hosiery, Women's Active Wear, and Shoes
Friday - Jewelry, Purses, Accessories
The way pricing works (this will explain how Hardlines is marked down): The pricing team prints out the labels for the day, these are small price increases and "Price Cuts" (not to be confused with "Temporary Price Cuts" which have an end date).
Then, the pricing team goes to the pricing section of the PDA, and does "todays load". It gives them a section, aisle, and location of the mark-down. If it is a price cut, the PDA will tell them to scan the label, if it is going on mark-down, it will tell them to scan the item to "activate".
It is normal to have a 1,000 price changes in a day for the pricing team to do (which is usually 2-3 people). Many of these price changes you won't ever notice. For example, one time I had to mark nail polish up a penny. That is 20+ labels to scan and put up. I'm pretty sure it cost more for the pricing teams salary than they would make on the item.
There are 3 categories of clearance. First, Further, and Final. First is usually 30%, except HBA (Health & Beauty Aids) and sometimes Grocery, which can start at 15%. Further, is 50% (and 30% for those that started at 15%). Final is 75%.
Mark downs are usually 2 weeks between markdowns, but may go faster toward the end. It is general guideline, not a rule. All mark-downs come from corporate, and the store has no control over when an item is marked down or up. The only exceptions are "Additional Markdowns" (see below) and "Repackage" items. But even those items, the PDA gives the price, we just print out the label.
After 75%, most items are salvaged, though certain items can be salvaged sooner, usually higher end products, such as Dyson and Flip cameras. When an items is salvaged, it is marked out of the system, and taken to Receiving, put in a Salvage box, which the Receiving clerk checks against the salvage report, and most times is sent to GoodWill or a Reverse Logistics company that pays pennies on the pound for the salvaged items.
The Pricing Team Lead may decide to take an "Additional Mark-Down" on some items that were supposed to go salvage. For instance, if there is a lot of an item because it missed mark-down, was mis-stocked, or in the backroom, an additional may be done. An additional will most times be 85%, unless the item was salvaged at 50%, the additional would be 75%. An Additional Mark-Down requires the approval of the Pricing Team Lead or an LOD, or in some instances, both, so not "any" employee can do it for you.
There is also two kinds of Clearance. Ticketed and Non-Ticketed.
Non-Ticketed is clearance that is usually seasonal, and follows an approximately 10-day markdown schedule. Non-ticketed is obviously not ticketed, and will have Red with White Lettering signs that state "mark-down taken at register". Non-ticketed will start at 30%, 50%, 75%, then 90%. Non-ticketed is also done in the computer, so it will be active within a few hours of opening.
Ticketed- obviously has red & white stickers on them, and will have (if any) signs up that are White w/ Red Lettering that states "prices as marked". Ticketed items are marked down throughout the day.
*These signs may be put up in front of the wrong things, the Pricing Team may have new people or people helping that do not know the difference.
Hardlines clearance does follow a little of a schedule, but it is not absolute. A majority of Electronics will get marked down on Mondays, HBA on Fridays, ect.. There is a schedule in the Wiki that is pretty close, but Hardlines items can go at any time. The days/schedule is usually when the clearance endcaps are scanned and further and final markdowns are done. There is not a set day the pricing team has for this, it is determined that day if an endcap in a certain area is required to be scanned or not.
As for items not marked or found for salvage. At the end of each Pricing Day the un-found items that are still in the PDA are "activated". That is why you may find an item that is not marked, but scans the clearance price, or a clearance item that scans at a lower price than ticketed. Even if 1 item is found, but there are 2 other in the wrong place, once that first one is scanned, it activates that price for the rest of the items with that DPCI.
Some other things that may help you with shopping with Target.
Have you ever wondered what the location (example) A35(1)3-5-5 means?
A - the section of the store
35 - the aisle
(1) - the start of the location
3 - the section of gondola in the aisle
5 - how many shelves up from the floor it is
5 - the spaces over that the item is
Section of the store- pretty self-explanatory Most aisles will have a letter and a number at the start and end of the aisle.
The aisle - Starts with 1 toward the front of the store in each section, and goes on.
The start of the location, let's take the eye car aisle, for example. The first section of this aisle is pegs with glasses hanging on it. The next 3 gondolas are shelves 5 rows high with contact solution and eye drops. The next 2 gondolas are only 4 shelves high with diabetes health care. For each new kind of gondola, the section numbers will start at 1 again. So the glasses will be on A6(1), the contact solution and eye drops would start at A6(2), and the Diabetes care would be A6(2). This helps understand the next numbers. Other location numbers are (0) - which means it's an endcap, and (99) - which means it's a sidecap. For endcaps, the Odd number is on the main aisle, and the Even number is the "back" endcap (where the clearance endcaps are). A co-worker once told me "It's odd that the even are on the back", a little mnemonics device to help me remember.
The section of the gondola in the aisle. There are usually 6 gondolas in an aisle. You can see the separation of the shelves going down the aisle. The numbers start at 1 from the main aisle. So, A may start at 1 and go <-- and B will start at 1 and go -->
The number of shelves up from the bottom. If the item is hanging, it may have a P1, P2, P3, ect.. or an F1, F2, F3, ect.. Otherwise, it is the standard 1, 2, 3, 4, ect..
The spaces an item is over on that gondola.
If you look at the label picture below, you will see this (from the top-down)
DPCI (DePt Class Item)
Location (the shelf label will only include the last three location numbers, it assumes you already know which aisle you are in).
The number next to the location is how many items will be facing. In the example: *01 means that it will have 1 row, and the * means it has multiple locations at the time the shelf label was made. The * could mean that it is simply below and above (like printer paper is) or it could be on an endcap, or in this case, the front of the store.
The number under that is the last of the UPC. Most times they will match up, but sometimes they do, because the manufacturer may have made a different UPC for a bonus pack, new packaging, ect.. but Target still keeps the same DPCI.
A- To check inventory, input the DPCI in the form of xxx-xx-xxxx in the "Search" box of the Target website. You will then be able to click on "Find In Store" to see the list of available stores.
B- If you see an item showing "not sold in store" and you want to double check:
- Note the online item # number found on the item webpage above the dpci in *other info*
- Open the mobile site (m.target.com)
- Pick an item until you get to the inventory checker
- Replace the xxxxxxxx's
http://m.target.com/fiats/t-xxxxxxxx (8 #'s)
- Hit enter - you can now check inventory for the "not sold in store" item
or for those with a good memory, just ad the numbers at the end of this URL
How do I know an item is out of stock?
If an item is out of stock (OOS) on both the shelf and the backroom and needs to be ordered from the warehouse, there will be a small gray dot sticker on the shelf price tag of the item. If there is no gray dot on the shelf price tag, enter the DCPI number into an updated price check scanner to check back room stock of the item. If your store has the old style of scanners, ask a team member to check the stock of the item for you.
Does Target give out rainchecks?
If an item you want is out of stock, there should be a little tear off pad with rainchecks on the shelf. You tear one off and take it to the cashier/CS, tell them the quantity you want, and they will print a raincheck. Please note: current rainchecks do not have a barcode and when you go to use a raincheck, the cashier has to manually type it in rather than scanning a barcode.
If the cashier does not know how to process a raincheck, gently guide them through the process below:
Key 9801 + DPCI
Can we get a Raincheck for Temporary price cut items?
The register may or may not be able to print a RC for a TPC item. A team member should NEVER print you one however, as it is against our rules. Most if not all TPCs are initiated to move product at a faster rate than the normal sale. Whether its short dated items at the warehouse, overstock on the ugly yellow towels nobody wants, etc.
I'm not sure what the actual training for printing a RC is, but I teach my trainees to check it with the PDA or in person and if its a TPC politely explain that there are no RCs for those items. They really need to just start printing no RCs on the signs to save us trouble.
This is partially also because a store can initiate its own TPCs, especially on meat and produce in Pfresh. Which are meant for specific dated goods. And are often made and killed before the end of the day. Obviously we wouldn't want you to have a RC for chicken for later when the chicken that was TPCed (and most likely had markdown peelies as well) is all gone.
What does DPCI stand for?
DPCI stands for DePartment, Class, Item. it's Target's proprietary SKU # system for inventory control. the format is xxx xx xxxx and can be found on the shelf tag, on the price scanner when you scan a bar code and on the left side of your receipt.
What is Target's Coupon Acceptance Policy?
Official Target Coupon Policy [target.com]
Quote :Dear Target Guest,
Thanks for asking again about using coupons at Target. Coupons are a great way to save even more when shopping at Target, and we make it easy to use them at our stores. But because of the variety of coupons available to our guests, we do have some guidelines for how coupons can be redeemed at Target:
Thanks for shopping with us. We'll see you again soon at Target.
Target Guest Relations
Quote :Dear Target Guest,
Thanks for writing back regarding our coupon acceptance at Target. When a coupon states one per purchase, and you have more than one, you can use one coupon per item, as each item is considered a purchase and not a transaction.
We always welcome your questions, so if we can assist you in the future, please contact our Target Guest Relations team at (800) 440-0680. You can also speak with a team member at the Guest Services Desk at your local Target store, or visit us on Target.com. Either way, we're here to help!
Thanks for shopping with us. I hope we'll see you again soon at Target.

item not found = computer cannot do a match because:
- coupons coded x xxxxx xxx00 x beep at all stores
- coupons coded x xxxxx xxx01 x beep at target, but not at kmart
- short barcode x xxxxxx x
- mfr code is off by a zero
ex: aveeno q mfr: 5 08137 xxxxx x, product mfr code: 8137 xxxxxx x. also clean and clear.
- family code doesn't match ex.most nexxus products
Does Target do Missed Coupons?
Target's policy is that they can't give cash back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item; in that case, they'll adjust the value of the coupon to equal the price of the item. Some cashiers may not catch "overage" if a coupon scans properly; however, as with all things Target, this is YMMV. As the policy states that Target will not give cash back, just accept "FREE after coupon" and move on to the next deal . It is best to always keep a copy of the Target Coupon Policy with you at all times, just in case.
If a cashier does not know how to manually process a coupon, gently guide them through the steps below:
- Select Coupons/Discounts (K4).
- Select Coupons.
- Select Manufacturer or Store coupon.
- Key the adjusted coupon value and press Enter.
What are Target mobile coupons?
Sign up here [target.com]
You will then receive texts from Target supplying you a link to go to on your phone. You will need internet on your phone to use that link. Just show the barcode to your cashier and they just need to scan it.
Coupon is unique per phone# and can only be used once per item.
Don't have internet on your phone? That's fine- sign up any way and then on your computer go here [target.com]. Enter your phone number and print out the barcode.
Can I access the Target mobile coupons on a computer instead?
(This is if you already accepted the text message but do not have data on your phone)
Your text message link should be in the form
Use the link below filling in the missing info.
1) Target puts out their own coupons on their website. You can combine Target coupons and use them with manufacturer's coupons. So if you have a Target coupon for Heinz Ketchup for $1.00, and a manufacturer's coupon for Heinz Ketchup for $1.00 - you are allowed to use them both together and get $2.00 off your ketchup purchase. So check Target's website, I think they put up new coupons every other weekend.
2) You can also find Target coupons in the newspaper. If they aren't in your newspaper, check e*bay and coupon clipper sites - do a search for "Target coupons" and see what comes up. You can also combine these with manufacturer's coupons. Right now there are Target insert/newspaper coupons for $2.00 off Kotex items and there are manufacturer's coupons for $1.00 or $.50 off Kotex items. This makes some of the Kotex items FREE.
3) Check your coupons and make sure that they don't say "excludes trial items" on them. If they don't, you should be able to use them on trial items, potentially getting them FREE. (This varies from store to store, some stores will refuse you.) Not long ago, there were $1.00 Tide detergent coupons, and you could use them on the Tide trial sizes which were $1.00 = FREE Tide.
4) Keep your eyes open for coupons in the actual store. Sometimes Target will have tearpads, peelies, hangtags, etc, that are Target coupons. Again, you can combine them with your manufacturer coupons. Right now there are $1.00 Target Ziplock coupons attached to some Ziplock items in the store + $1.00 Ziplock manufacterer coupons = some pretty cheap darn Ziplock stuff..
5) Watch the Target ads for gift card deals. These are AWESOME. Combined with coupons, sometimes Target will pay YOU to take items off their hands. The last major one I remember was the Venus or Fusion razors.. it was buy two, get a $5 or $10 gift card, I can't remember which. And there were $4 coupons available to use on the razors. Buy two razors, use two $4 coupons and get handed a gift card back.. good deal. There's also a Sobe gift card deal coming up, making the Sobe free using coupons.
6) Keep your eyes open for coupons that say "buy x product, get y product free." Then combine those with other coupons. Example: I had coupons for $1.00 off Chinet plates. I also had coupons for FREE Heinz ketchup when you buy Chinet plates. I ALSO had $3 off $15 partyware purchase Target coupon. Combine all those, and I now live in a Chinet fort and take baths in ketchup. My skin has never looked so smooth (and tomatoey) and my utility bills have never been so high. (I'm kidding, I'm kidding.. )
Hope that helps out a little bit. We were all new once. Feel free to PM someone when you have a question about something they post here.. if they don't answer, at least you tried, right? And a bunch of people will answer.
Debit Card Cash Back
Q: just a quick question, I used my target debit card to buy something then a few days later went to return it. The lady said I couldn't get cash back, I have gotten cash back before! I told her that its a debit card and I should be able to get my cash back. She said she couldn't do it and that it had to go back on my card which sucks because target is slow and its going to take forever to show that $ back in my bank account. So is this something new?
A: While there's a miniscule chance it is something being tested, this likely (i.e. 99% chance) happened because in the initial screen to choose the form of payment to return it as, the only options are the card or a gift card for the Target Check Card. There's an easy workaround that most will know (choosing the check card option then choose that "card not here" option), but some do not.
What happens to Target salvage and food?
A- Our Merchandise Salvage program sends unsold product to organizations for resale: although we maintain a business relationship with both nonprofit and for-profit partners, more than 900 of our stores enjoy partnerships with Goodwill Industries affiliates, which provides services like job training along with low-cost goods.
2009 Corporate Responsibility Report, p.30
(this section of the corporate responsibility report has constantly shrunk in wording from 2004 to non-existent in the current 2011 report. however, the wording in the 2004, 2007 and 2009 reports was essentially the same, therefore i do not believe there have been any major changes to the merchandise salvage program. there may be some language on the subject in the current annual report. -slowtech 1/11/13)
Target sells to salvage companies such as-
B- Food Donations
Since 2001, we've partnered with Feeding America in its fight to end hunger in the United States. We donate millions of pounds of food each year, providing millions of meals to families in need. We've also teamed up with Feeding America to launch Meals For Minds, a program to provide kids from lower-income communities with access to foods they need to learn and grow right in their own schools.
*A company-wide program of food donation has been undertaken to reduce food waste and donate this food to people in need. Target donated over 1,328,000 pounds of food through the Second Harvest Food Network in 2004, diverting it from the waste stream.*
*Food Donation Policy
Target identifies certain perishable and non-perishable food items that do not meet our
merchandising standards, but are still edible. These items are donated to a Feeding America Food Bank. This policy applies to price change salvage product and defective/damaged red label product. It does not apply to vendor serviced product.
View a list of approved Food Donations.
Due to FDA regulations Target does not salvage food. This includes food from all categories: red label damaged/returned, price change seasonal salvage and price change clearance salvage.*

so would not take the T coupon. Cashier put it in anyway.....then the next order it works.
Could not figure out why.....so put the T coupon first..before any other coupons and it went though.
Had the same thing happen with the method....first coupon flashed the red screen....then next three coupons worked. Frustrating to the new cashiers.
Beggin Strips are 2.50 for 6 oz.
Jerky is 3.99 and 4.49 I think--bought lots before with the TQ and the $1 peelie on the bags.

My daughter Jillian turned 2 in March, and I am AP all the way and want to let her wean on her own time. I'm also a special education teacher, working with teenagers with emotional/behavioral problems, and I haven't slept a full night in over 2 years. I'm tired, and I really have a love-hate relationship with nursing. I don't want to wean completely, I just don't want her to still nurse so OFTEN!!!
We've developed some "bad" - I know, not really bad, just a little lazy, lol - and she's a big comfort-nurser, like she wants to sit there & nurse long after the time she'd usually be done just to nurse during her favorite show. I've been trying to show her other ways we can bond, like cuddling, hugs, playing, etc., and verbally expressing this to her - "We don't have to have nunnies, you can just sit on Mommy's lap & we'll watch JoJo." I'm not consistent though, and I don't push the issue, if she refuses to be distracted by other things I'll let her nurse. Partly because I figure she must need it, and partly because I'm so tired! She's extremely "strong willed" or "high needs" or whatever you want to call it too.
Nights have been freaking unbearable lately though - we nurse to sleep in her bed and she keeps wanting to get up & do stuff, telling me, "I be back Mama" (LOL), but it irritates me cuz I feel like if I'm willing to still nurse the child to sleep she should go to sleep! She wakes a ton during the night so she ends up in bed w/me, either in my room w/DH or just her & me in the spare room. I'm actually wondering if the last of the 2 yr molars are coming through. And she lays down on a cot & goes to sleep on her own at daycare, but MUST have "nunnies" at home, which is also annoying at times, I read about sleep associations & stuff but it's not like she doesn't know how to go to sleep any other way!
I guess I need advice on how to reduce the intensity somewhat? I try the distraction, substitution, don't offer/don't refuse, and it works sometimes and not at other times. On weekends when we're home together all day she'll nurse in the morning, for her nap, after nap, around 4pm or so, and then before bed. I don't want to force her to nurse completely, but I'd really love to get it down to once or twice a day.
I'd also like to get her to sleep without it, but the couple times I made DH put her down, she came & got into bed with me (and no doubt helped herself) and I didn't even realize she was there til I woke in the morning - so what's the point of making her go down in the first place without it, kwim?
I'll be out of school in another month and I don't want to go back to spending half the day in the chair nursing, trying to get her to sleep, whatever! That is just soooooo frustrating! Should I night wean? Day wean? How? I guess I just expected her to at least show signs of slowing down by now!!!

Icy lakes, storms ground loons, grebes
51 loons rescued by center
Frozen lakes and the recent spring snowstorms have grounded migrating loons and grebes in northern Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The Duluth News Tribune reported the storms forced birds down in areas where they normally wouldn't stop, and the lack of open water has given many of the aquatic birds little or no place to take off or land.
Marge Gibson, director of the Raptor Education Center in Antigo, Wis., says her center has rescued 51 loons in the past two weeks. She says the loons generally have been in decent shape, but sometimes they need to be cleaned and fed before being released on large lakes to the south where the ice is already out.
The Duluth-based Wildwoods Rehabilitation Center has rescued one loon but well over a dozen grebes.

Michael W. Lucas: Who is Colin Percival, and why should we listen to him?
Colin Percival: To the first question: I'm a visiting researcher at Simon Fraser University in Canada, as well as being a deputy security officer with the FreeBSD project. I started my B.S. in mathematics at age 13 (concurrent with high school) and graduated with a first-class honors degree in 2001; to the extent possible within the confines of an undergraduate degree program, I had an emphasis on number theory and computer algorithms. I then went to Oxford University, where I recently defended my doctoral thesis in computer science.
To the second question: you should listen to me because I have written a 12-page academic paper presenting and discussing a serious security vulnerability, and nobody has been able to refute my results. I believe that my work stands on its own; it doesn't need my name attached to give it credibility.
MWL: I saw your hyperthreading presentation at BSDCan, where you demonstrated weaknesses with the combination of cryptographic software and hyperthreading. Can you explain your work in a way that those folks who aren't cryptographers, and who find that 12-page paper intimidating, can understand it?
CP: Well, this is a bit of a strained analogy, but here goes. Imagine that you work in computer technical support. You're really good at your job, but you can never answer any questions on your own--instead, you have a collection of really good computer manuals spread out on your desk, and every time someone asks you a question, you have to refer to the appropriate manual to work out what the answer is.

Absolute OpenBSD
Now, because you're so good at your job, you don't just help one customer at once; instead, you have two phones, and you try to help two customers at once, alternating back and forth between them. If the two people you are helping are asking about completely different problems, then you can have both manuals open to the right pages, and this works very well; but if you've got two people who need answers from the same manual, then you have to spend time flipping the pages back and forth, which means that it takes far longer for you to answer each question.
Since the two people you are helping can measure how long it takes you to answer their questions, they can determine if you have to flip pages--in other words, they can determine if the other customer is asking you questions for which you need to refer to the same manual in order to answer.
In my paper, "you" are the CPU, the two people you are helping are two computer programs, and the reference manuals you are using is the main memory of the computer. By measuring how long it takes for the CPU to perform some calculations, a program can work out which parts of the computer's main memory are being used by the other program. Once it knows this ... well, it's hard to explain further without explaining technical details about how encryption works, so let it suffice to say that knowing which memory locations are being accessed while some data is being encrypted or decrypted can very often tell you what the data, or the secret key being used, is.
MWL: A real system has a lot of things going on at the same time, though. To stretch your analogy even further, you don't have two callers on the line--you have dozens, or even hundreds. You were able to recover hundreds of bits from a key in your environment, but it appears, to me at least, to be a bit different from recovering an actual key on an actual system in the real world; even the lowest-use system has a lot of processes scheduled. Isn't this vulnerability largely theoretical?
CP: You're stretching the analogy in the wrong direction. You're right that there may be dozens or even hundreds of programs running on a busy system--or, in our analogy, that many customers phoning for technical support--but what matters is how many programs are running at once. On a hyperthreaded CPU, there are only ever two programs being run at any given time; all the rest are waiting for their turn (again, much like technical support lines!).
All an attacker needs to do is get his code running on the CPU at the same time as the program he is trying to spy on--and he only needs to do this once. If he doesn't succeed on his first attempt--that is, if some other program is selected to run at the same time as his target--then he can just try again. A computer that is running at 90 percent of capacity is a very heavily loaded system, but even there the attacker would only need to make ten attempts on average before he succeeded; and each attempt takes a fraction of a second and is for all practical purposes undetectable.
In short, the vulnerability is entirely practical. In my paper I make some assumptions for the purposes of making it easier to explain and demonstrate the attack, but the difficulties an attacker would encounter in the real world are far from insurmountable.
MWL: If I recall correctly, at BSDCan you said that you expected someone with the proper background could write a functional exploit for this vulnerability in only a few days. It's been a few weeks now; have you seen such an exploit yet?
CP: No; but if someone was planning on exploiting this, I'm sure they wouldn't announce it to the world by publishing their code.
MWL: Well, when an exploit comes out I'm sure you'll hear about it, probably by the guy who has to clean it up.
You had your own ideas about how people could use this. I'm sure that other people have given you even more ideas. What other interesting, surprising, or creative ideas have other people given you for exploiting hyperthreading?
CP: Well, I demonstrated an attack against RSA using hyperthreading; Osvik and Tromer have also performed an attack against AES. (I don't know all the details, since they haven't published their work yet.) Beyond these two cryptographic attacks, it becomes harder to define what constitutes an "exploit"--clearly stealing someone's keys is a problem, but what about watching the pattern of their keystrokes when they type in their password? What about determining which records are being accessed in a database? What about distinguishing between someone running vi and someone running emacs? The way software is designed at the moment more or less guarantees that information will be leaked on a hyperthreaded processor--the only question is how much people care.
The most interesting feedback I've received has not been about new ways of exploiting hyperthreading, but instead has been historical: it seems that several people independently investigated the possibility of information leakage via caches over 20 years ago, but were "discouraged" from further research by the NSA before they obtained any significant results.
MWL: If I'm understanding you correctly, you think the line between an exploit and an interesting-but-unimportant security bug is personal. Obviously we all care when the script kiddies have their point-and-click RSA-smasher, but there are many degrees of gray beneath that level. Someone may consider your HT vulnerability moot, but others will find it very serious indeed. This is something we don't hear enough about in security--it's all relative to your situation.
CP: I wouldn't say that the line between "dangerous" and "interesting but unimportant" is personal, since that implies that there is a subjective element to security analysis. Rather, I'd say that the line between "dangerous" and "interesting but unimportant" depends upon whether you are directly affected. You could think of it as being like an automobile accident--if you never leave home, you don't need to worry about being in an automobile accident, but if you do leave home, it's something that you need to take precautions against (e.g., learning to drive safely).
MWL: At BSDCan, you mentioned that you had learned a lot of new and interesting things about yourself in the interval between announcing the paper and actually releasing it. Someone had posted that you had a vendetta against Intel, and someone else said that you were manipulating the stock price for personal gain. How much of that reaction does a security researcher put up with when he announces his results?
CP: Well, I should start by clarifying here that the rumors were largely my fault, since they resulted from the unusual disclosure schedule for this issue. The time at which I released all the details of the attack was set by the conference schedule--I was giving the first talk of the conference, at 10 a.m. EDT on Friday the 13th--but I wanted to provide everybody with a chance to fix this on Friday regardless of which time zone they happened to be in, so at 8 p.m. EDT the preceding evening I announced that an unspecified problem existed and that I would be releasing the details the following morning.
This window of 14 hours resulted in some rather interesting rumors flying around, since the only evidence people had on which to judge my claims was my reputation together with the FreeBSD security advisory that was sent out. (No other advisories were released until SCO sent out their advisory on the 13th.) Some people claimed that this was all a hoax; others, pointing to the FreeBSD security advisory and the lack of Linux security advisories, said that "obviously, Linux is not affected"; but the most amusing claim I heard came from someone who pointed to my web page where I describe myself as being "unemployed [because] I wanted to spend my time making sure that this issue was properly fixed, rather than earning some money" and concluded that I was "a disgruntled unemployed programmer, trying to make some money by short-selling Intel shares." (Coincidentally, someone did sell 10 million Intel shares at 10:56 a.m. on May 12--but according to reports I've read, this was simply a trading error, where the intended sale had been of 10,000 shares.)
In general, security researchers don't have to put up with very much along these lines. In this particular case, I had to put up with quite a lot of rumors--but I didn't really mind, since they provided some valuable comic relief, and once I published the details of my attack, nearly everyone accepted that it was valid immediately.
MWL: I saw advisories from SCO and from FreeBSD, but I'm sure you contacted other vendors: Microsoft, Sun, Red Hat, SGI, and so on. How did people react; did they take you seriously or blow you off? How did they work with you? I'm especially curious about how Intel reacted to being told that there is a basic problem with their design.
CP: In general, I had no trouble convincing security people to take this problem seriously. As one person put it, "Anything which comes from the FreeBSD Security team immediately has an air of credibility to it," and while I was reporting this problem in my personal capacity as a security researcher, the fact that I am part of the FreeBSD security team certainly helped. Beyond that, the individual reactions were quite different; but rather than addressing each vendor's response individually and in detail, which would take many pages, I'll just give the highlights--in the form of awards for exceptional performances.
The prize for most professional response goes to SCO. I must admit to having been rather surprised by this, in light of the public disagreements between SCO and the free software community, but SCO's response to this issue was really quite superb. Out of all the members of the Linux vendor security list, SCO was the first to request further details after I posted to indicate that there was a problem; they were the first to respond back with detailed and intelligent questions; when I asked for vendor statements, they were the first (and only Linux) vendor to respond; and they published an advisory only a few hours after the embargo on the issue ended.
The prize for most corporate attitude goes to Intel. I had some trouble establishing contact with them in the first place--not that I can assign much blame for this, since Intel, unlike operating system vendors, has not had much experience in dealing with security flaws--but even once I found someone who was willing to talk to me, our conversations were rather less than useful: as a general rule, I would ask questions (e.g., Would it be possible for you to produce a microcode patch as follows ... or How about making the following changes in future processors ...), and the reply would invariably be "I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed to talk about that." Worse, once it became clear that my recommendation--and FreeBSD's response--was going to be to disable hyperthreading by default, Intel shifted completely into damage control mode, discarding all attempts at a reasoned security-centric response in favor of treating this simply as a public relations exercise.
The prize for most personally helpful goes to Mike O'Connor of SGI. As little communication as I had with Intel, I'm sure I would have had even less were it not for Mike's help: when I explained to him the difficulties I was having with Intel, he took advantage of the established channels that SGI had, by virtue of being a large customer, to remind Intel that it was important to talk to people who discover security vulnerabilities.
The prize for least communicative goes to Microsoft. I was very amused recently to read the following in a story on eweek.com:
"We respond immediately to the initial vulnerability report and provide the researcher with contact names, e-mail addresses and phone numbers. We make it clear we want to work closely with the researcher to pinpoint the problem and get it fixed. We commit to providing [researchers] with a progress report on the Microsoft investigation every time they ask for one," [MSRC program manager Stephen Toulouse] said.
My experience with Microsoft was quite the opposite. When I first reported this vulnerability to Microsoft, I was thanked, given a ticket number (5834), and told that it would be handled by "Christopher"--no last name, no phone number, and no direct email address. Later the issue was transferred to "Brian"--but again, no contact information was provided. Despite comments from multiple third parties that Microsoft was "very concerned" and had "several people" working on this issue, Microsoft did not "make it clear they wanted to work closely" with me--in fact, they ignored all my attempts at cooperation. Finally, when I sent emails to Microsoft asking for a progress report, I received no response. Even now, a month after I published the details of this vulnerability, I have received no communication from Microsoft to say if--let alone how--they intend to respond to this issue.
Finally, the head in the sand prize goes to Linus Torvalds. On Monday, May 16, three days after I published all the details of my attack, Linus wrote that he would "be really surprised if somebody is actually able to get a real-world attack on a real-world pgp key usage or similar out of it (and as to the covert channel, nobody cares). It's a fairly interesting approach, but it's certainly neither new nor HT-specific, or necessarily seem all that worrying in real life." I really don't know where to start with this, except perhaps to say that I'm very glad that Linus isn't responsible for keeping my computer secure.
MWL: SCO gave the best response? I'm sure a lot of people will find that surprising. I guess it just demonstrates that the people doing the work aren't the same people that are making policy, and that the vendors who aren't taking it seriously will find out just how real-world this can be.
CP: I think it's a bit more subtle than that. SCO is the heir to Unix, so they've had a lot of time to mature; and their customers are probably highly weighted toward the "upgrade once a decade," hyperconservative server end of the spectrum--which is exactly where this is the most dangerous. Companies tend to adopt the same attitudes as the people who buy their products, so I'm not at all surprised that a company that deals with very conservative server-buying customers had a far better response than a company which deals mostly with security-unaware desktop users.
MWL: To an outsider looking in, it seems that this took a long time to work out. A layman might think that you would just have an idea, hammer out some demo code, mail some vendors, and be done with it. I'm sure it's not that simple. What does a security researcher actually do on a day-to-day basis?
CP: Well, I'm not a very good example of a security researcher, in that respect. Most security researchers--or at least, most people who call themselves security researchers--spend most of their time combing through source code looking for bugs. This is certainly useful, but it doesn't require very much skill, and I suspect that this is a task that will be taken over by computer programs before long, since most security flaws fall into the "stupid mistake" category and are very easy to recognize if you look closely enough; I've been particularly impressed in this respect with results from software produced by Coverity.
As for what I think your real question was--why it took such a long time before I announced the problem--well, it all comes down to lots of details. To start with, when I first realized that this was likely to be a problem, I was in the middle of editing my D.Phil. thesis prior to sending it off to my examiners. While walking to and from college every day--I was living in a house about 2 kilometers outside of Oxford, and without an internet connection--I convinced myself that the problem was probably real, but it wasn't until over a month later, when I went back to Vancouver for Christmas, that I had time to sit down and write some code.
By the end of 2004, I had some working code and I had demonstrated that it could steal enough information to make breaking RSA easy, but this wasn't enough to write to people yet. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and while I had the necessary evidence, it was scattered between dozens of files and scraps of paper, and nobody would have the patience to read and understand it all it its current form. Consequently, I started to write my paper, "Cache missing for fun and profit," in order to clearly explain why there was a covert channel between threads executing on the same processor core, how this channel could be exploited as a side channel, and how it was possible to defend against this attack.
I finished a first draft of this at the end of February--after being interrupted partway through by my thesis defense--and started writing to security people to inform them of this vulnerability. For the next two months, my role became less that of a researcher and more that of an educator: while my paper was largely self-explanatory, for nearly every point I made there was at least one person who needed me to provide additional explanation, and there were many things--potential fixes, for example, which I had decided wouldn't actually work--that I didn't mention in my paper but still had to explain to several people.
Toward the end of April, I went through my paper making substantial revisions, based on feedback from the various security teams with which I had been in contact, and then I prepared the patch for FreeBSD--only to end up feverishly rewriting the patch during the FreeBSD developer summit the day before my talk, after I realized that my original patch would had inadvertently ended up disabling dual-core systems.
Of course, while I was doing all of this, daily life continued as usual. As a FreeBSD deputy security officer, I was responsible for dealing with the more common "dumb bug" sort of security issues, so I wrote patches and advisories for half a dozen other security problems (including one I found myself) during the period that I was working on this.
I guess the most important point to realize here is that it's one thing to realize that something might be a problem, and another to write the code to exploit it; but it is quite different, and a lot more work, to liaise with over a dozen vendors to explain what the problem is and how it should be fixed.
MWL: It sounds as if it would have been easier to write an exploit for this than to bring this to vendors correctly as you did!
CP: Quite likely, yes. Of course, considering the wide range of operating systems affected by this, I wouldn't want to distribute exploit code even if I had written it, so the route I took was the only reasonable approach to ensuring that everybody could fix the problem (even if some of them seem to have not bothered).
MWL: You're also a part of the FreeBSD security team. I'm sure you get a fair number of emails from panicked users, false bug reports, "security holes" that are actually the result of incorrect sysadmin practice, and so on. What's it like being on the FreeBSD security team? Are there any choice tidbits you'd care to share from that experience?
CP: Many people have said that war is "months of boredom punctuated by a few minutes of hell"; being on the FreeBSD security team isn't quite that intense, but there is certainly a similarity. Most of the time, there aren't any major problems that need to be dealt with, but we never know when the next big attack is going to happen. Of course, that's only one side of the security work I do with FreeBSD; in addition to handling security issues as they are found, I've spent much of the past two years improving our infrastructure for distributing updates. It doesn't help very much to discover and produce a patch for a security flaw if none of your users actually apply the patch, for example, so I wrote a tool called FreeBSD Update that allows people to securely download and install security updates very easily.
As for choice tidbits: there are inevitably some amusing things that happen, but I'd rather not give specifics; people have confidence that they can write to the security team to tell us about potential problems without having their correspondence discussed outside of the security team, and I don't want to betray that trust.
MWL: Your updating tool sounds promising; would you care to give our readers a brief description and tell us what problems you're trying to solve?
CP:Sure. To start with, you have to understand that FreeBSD is an open source operating system; all of the source code used to build it is available, and anyone who knows what they are doing can take this source code, make changes to it, recompile it, and thereafter run their own personal version of FreeBSD.
This is all great, but it leads to a certain disconnect between the
developers--for whom "remove
| S_IRGRP | S_IROTH from line 105
of sys/dev/iir/iir_ctrl.c and recompile" makes sense--and normal
users, who aren't interested in writing code but instead simply want a system
that works. Historically, security issues have been handled in FreeBSD by
distributing a source code patch along with a list of instructions for applying
the patch and rebuilding; this had the effect that most users would decide that
applying the security patches was far too much work, and would instead simply
leave their systems insecure. A doctor once remarked to me that it's one thing
to diagnose an illness and another to prescribe the correct treatment, but
that the really hard part is making sure that a patient actually takes the
medicine--the situation is exactly the same with security issues, in that the
really hard part is to make sure that users actually keep their systems up to
This is where FreeBSD Update comes in. I take the source code patches that fix security problems, and recompile everything; then I check to see which files have changed, package the new files together, and put them online for people to download. Instead of needing to apply the source code patch and recompile everything--which can take well over an hour on a slow machine--users simply run the FreeBSD Update client, and watch as it downloads any necessary security updates for them--very much the same way as Windows Update works.
Incidentally, there has been one very interesting spin-off benefit of my work on FreeBSD Update: In order to speed up the downloading of binary security updates, I wrote a simple "delta compression" program, which compares two files and outputs a small "binary patch," which encodes the difference between them. Since people normally have an old, insecure version of the files for which they are downloading security updates, it is usually possible to download this much smaller patch file. Much to my surprise, I discovered that the patches my utility was producing were several times smaller--and thus faster to download--than patches produced by any other available software. Since then, my binary delta compression utility, bsdiff, has been increasingly widely used, most notably in OS X (for distributing software updates) and in the next major release of Mozilla Firefox.
MWL: You've provided ideas for people looking to make crypto useless on hyperthreaded machines, created software used by major companies to reduce the cost and complexity of software updates, and nailed down your Ph.D. What's next?
CP: As I think I mentioned before, my attack is just the latest in a long series of side-channel attacks on cryptographic implementations. The unfortunate fact is that the existing libraries of cryptographic functions were either written before side-channel attacks became well known or were written by people who were largely unaware of the problem. Each time that a new attack is published, cryptographic libraries are rewritten to protect against that latest attack, but there has been no attempt made so far to produce a library that is designed from the ground up to be immune to entire classes of side-channel attacks. As I mention in my paper, this can be done by adopting a more restricted model of computation, which prohibits data-dependent branches or memory accesses. Assuming that I can find some funding to support this, I'd like to write such a library.
In the longer term ... well, when Guy Consolmagno was appointed the Vatican astronomer, he was given three words of instruction: "Do good science." That's the sort of job I'd love to have: one with no strings attached, nobody telling me what research I should or should not be doing, and nobody telling me what I can or cannot publish--just absolute freedom to do research. Realistically, I suspect that the closest I'm ever likely to get to that ideal is if I get a tenured appointment at a university, so that's where I'm currently hoping to end up; but wherever I go, I intend to continue doing research. The problems I do research into are often inspired by practical issues, as with my delta compression work, so it is quite likely that I'll continue to produce useful software; but that is simply a side benefit. My real interest is the research.
MWL: Good luck, and thanks for your time.

I have been struggling to BF my daughter since I went back to work when she was 2 months old. I know everyone says supply can be brought back up, but it just isn't happening. I pump every 2.5-3 hours at work, and then nurse her at home every 3 hours. When she's done with me she usually has a 2-4 oz bottle of formula too. She takes formula when I'm at work, since I never pump more that 4 oz at work. All day. From both sides. I'm taking nine 610 mg capsules a day of fenugreek, I am eating oatmeal every day, and then force feeding myself (I have no appetite since I had the baby) the rest of the day. I am so stressed out about all of it, and other things that I can't sleep at night, and now she wakes up at night for feedings too, so the little sleep I was getting is even less now. I have 2 other kids and I'm a single mom, so sometimes if she's sleeping, I wind up missing a feeding and forget to pump then I freak out when we go for 6 or 7 hours between. I don't know what to do anymore. If anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know.
Also, I just started using a new, much better pump yesterday. Anyone have any idea how long it might take to tell if it's helping?

EAA alternative bill discharged from Committee
Bills which provide an alternative to the expansion of the Education Achievement Authority (EAA) have been moved out of the House Education Committee and await action on the House floor. HB 5268 and HB 5269, sponsored by Rep. Ellen Cogen Lipton (D-Huntington Woods) and Rep. Brandon Dillon (D-Grand Rapids), will allow ISDs to have a part in assisting struggling schools.
Lipton's HB 5268 calls for an audit of schools to find out specifically why they are performing poorly. The audit is more than a financial review; it would look at curriculum, hiring practices, parent involvement, and staff evaluations, among other things. Evidence-based recommendations for improvement would be given to the district.
The ISD and the school reform officer then develop a written plan to implement a transformation program for the next school year. If the plan isn't developed or carried out by the school, the reform officer could then implement the plan for the school.
With Dillon's bill—HB 5269—a study would be implemented to determine, once and for all, how much it costs to educate students in Michigan.
In the meantime, there's still no action by the House on HB 4369, Rep. Lisa Lyon's (R-Alto) bill to expand the EAA. The bill has the potential to put every school in the bottom 5 percent achievement ranking into the EAA.
MEA opposes the bill. The EAA has done nothing to improve student achievement, as evidenced by its recently-released MEAP scores. The EAA is a failed experiment which should be ended—not expanded.

Last week, I was in Phoenix for the Gartner Supply Chain Executive Conference, where I heard the announcement of Gartner's 2014 Supply Chain Top 25. The purpose of Gartner's research initiative is to raise awareness of the supply chain discipline and how it impacts business—important for both Gartner and APICS.
The top five organizations are as follows: Apple, McDonald's, Amazon.com, Unilever, and Procter & Gamble. The Supply Chain Top 25 rankings comprise two main components: financial—which includes return on assets, inventory turns, and revenue growth—and opinion—from supply chain professionals and Gartner researchers.
Gartner analysts point to three supply chain trends for 2014. First, supply chain leaders understand and support the fully contextualized customer. "An enduring trait of leading companies is that customer needs and behaviors serve as the starting point for go-to-market and operational support strategies," Gartner reports. "The best of them present simple, elegant solutions to their customers, driven by conscious supply chain orchestration behind the curtain."
Next, digital and physical supply chains are coming together to deliver total customer solutions. "Leading companies have moved past selling only discrete products or services to their customers and are now focused on delivering solutions."
Lastly, Gartner echoes what I wrote last week: Supply chain plays a large role in business competitiveness. It is an essential part of growth strategies. "Leading supply chains are enabling this growth both organically and through successful [merger and acquisition] integration," Gartner reports. "At the same time, supply chain leaders are emerging as trusted and integrated partners to business groups."
Becoming a supply chain leader
In the three trends Gartner highlights, consider the importance of synchronization as it is defined in the APICS Operations Management Body of Knowledge Framework: "Synchronization is the simultaneity and speed of movement of information, funds, and goods or services through the supply network. Scheduling the supply chain effectively requires a clear demand signal to reach the extremities of the chain. Knowing when products are needed, where the inventory buffers will be held in the supply chain, and what the flexibility requirements and rules of engagement are greatly increases the overall performance of the supply chain."
As you think about building a leading supply chain, consider how APICS can help. We have ongoing relationships with seven of the companies on Gartner's Supply Chain Top 25. These relationships, which are managed through APICS Corporate Services, range from enterprise memberships to group education and certification. More information about how APICS Corporate Services can assist your organization is available here.
