What have you bought recently?

Today I just went shopping for the heck of it at a new Marshalls store.

Some very nice men's clothes but nothing special in the way of price.

Also nice footwear. I'm going to buy a pair of Sketchers that I saw there.

And I came home with two small nonstick loaf pans which I have been looking for forever.
 

A new 32 inch wall mounted TV for the kitchen. The old one just died, it didn't even fuss around. It just said goodbye and went black. The evening news comes on about the same time as dinner, and we watch it for about as long as we can stand before going to a music channel. The news can bring on heartburn pretty fast these days.

So what do you do with the old one? Can you recycle it or have someone pick it up.

This is the problem with modern appliances. It's not feasible to get them repaired.

@Aunt Marg @hollydolly Thanks both.......i won't be getting it from Amazon, shipping is far too expensive for where i am......i know you can buy something there to compensate for shipping, but it doesn't cover shipping on everything.
Amazon just not the greatest, for the part of the world, where i park my butt.
Will google it, see what i get.
Thanks again.

Just so you know, Micka, Amazon is offering free shipping on this item right now.

Oh, where to begin. 🛍 :LOL: I order tons of stuff from Amazon, so the UPS driver gets a cold bottle of water from me almost every day. Yesterday I got a Costco order of k-cups and soft peppermints. I've ordered a couple of handbags from the Dooney & Bourke sale; can't wait to get those. On my way to Macy's website now to see what kind of deals they have for the 4th. 🏃‍♀️

You and me both. I buy everything online. It makes more sense, because my vision is so poor that I can't really see what I'm looking at in stores...but with online magnification, I can pick exactly what I need. This is especially helpful with groceries, because I've ended up with some very odd purchases at the store (brown rice instead of brown sugar, for instance).

Recently, I discovered this 'red salsa stripe' pattern that I love, I got curtains, chair pads, a floor mat...it really brightens things up.

I had it taken away by the same people who delivered the new one. We have a recycling center in our county, so that is where it went. It is quite a marvelous operation.

we had the same a couple of weeks ago when we got a new freezer delivered. New one unwrapped by them and placed in situ, and old one taken away to the recycling centre..
 
What have you bought recently?

I went into a florist's shop and told the owner that I wanted 200 bouquets of red roses delivered to 200 ladies on SF...."Oh, and while you're at it", I said, "Deliver one of those huge boxes of chocolates with every bouquet."

Aren't I one awful fibber. 😊

I have one of these on order. Should be a big help when I have to work in a kneeling position.

We have one of those, we don't use the tool bag attachment it gets in the way, but you'll find it really useful either to sit on as a stool and do the higher beds and things, or to kneel on and use the strong handles to get back up.. ..My o/h is doing some D-i-Y on his knees in the house as I speak and even at 60 he struggles to get up sometimes, so he's using the garden kneeler to help him get up without any problems

I'm happy about my elevated toilet seat I bought a few weeks ago. Makes life easier! 😊

I'll be picking out a new shower curtain in a few days.

Funny how simple, inexpensive things can make a difference.

I bought one too. Didn't work out to well though.

 
I bought a much needed lamp to put beside my computer. It was 21 dollars at Lowe’s and has a paper shade so I wasn’t sure how good it would be. 😂. It’s great! Exactly what I need. I put 40watt bulb in it and gives enough light to see the keyboard but doesn’t reflect on the screen.
 
Today I went to market and bought a new summer hat... a blue summer scarf, a cream coloured waste bin...and a new garden trug.

Here's the hats...
