What have you bought recently?

I'm so happy I got these! I this tea every morning. I picked up these 8 boxes I ordered from Amazon yesterday. Today I used the last one in the box I bought about 6 weeks ago (the only box they had). Believe it or not, Walmart was selling one box for $9 and change! Months ago, Amazon was selling one box for $6 and change. This time I found the 8 boxes (contains 48 tea bags) for $25.29 so I jumped on it. I'll get 5% cash back so it was worth paying a little extra to know I have enough to last almost a year.

It is new yes, but I bought it sometime ago. There was an online men's outfitters name of Samuel Windsor, https://www.samuel-windsor.co.uk/ They ceased trading earlier in the year, there was many a good deal to be had as the last of their stock was sold off. The lemon blazer was one of a number of bargains that I bought. The shirt fabric, although bright and the pattern loud, compliments the blazer and vice versa.

@StarSong, that's a very good idea about using a different device for financials only.

I might take that up myself... Let us know how that little chrome-book performs

I'm not ignoring this request - with such a short period between TG and shipping cutoffs this year I've been immersed in Christmas baking. Haven't yet opened the box never mind set up the computer! This Sunday I should have a spare hour to do so and will report back.

I found out that our local supermarket has almond milk cheaper than Costco. Only thing is it has to be refrigerated. It's a store brand similar to Silk. I'll be buying that more often but intend to keep a case of Kirkland (Costco brand) that can be stored unrefrigerated for when bad weather comes and I can't get to the store. Thank you for allowing me to keep my soup.

I also keep a few cartons of Costco's shelf-stable almond milk in my home pantry and RV. However, I prefer Aldi's refrigerated almond milk, which is cheaper at $1.99/half gallon.
 
We have a store name of Hobbycraft, about an hour's drive away, that sells a myriad of the kind of things that people do for a hobby. Whilst in there today, buying a Christmas gift for someone special, I saw, and impulsed purchased, something that would have cost a fortune in my schooldays but this was a steal at £16. Having been taught to write in Italic Script from my days at school, it's something that I still practice.

Skechers for 1/2price in the Black Friday sale...took a while to arrive from a Sport shop.. but an excellent bargain, at only £30...

A minor purchase but I bought a set of cloth masks. New York mandate back tomorrow.

..because I've never stopped wearing Masks despite being vaccinated , and also despite the mandate for wearing masks being dropped this last few months.. now that they've reinstated the mask wearing as from this week.. I'm fortunate that I have 4 boxes of various colour disposable masks, and at least 10 cloth masks...which I have continued to buy since the beginning of the pandemic..

I only have a handful of disposable left. I often carry extras of those in a baggie in my purse, to give to someone who needs one. I only have one or two cloth ones. But I decided I want a bigger supply of cloth, for use in the future. Plus, if I ever catch a cold or flu in future, I plan to mask up
 
Costco Business Center to buy some foods I need for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The bummer - they were either out of a couple of items I need or they've discontinued them. So now I need to go to another Costco to see what substitutes I can come up with.
 
Last week’s henley shirts are still in the bag for a return. I ordered them and a third from the same store online for half price. They’ll be the replacement for the regular shirts I wear around the house. It’s hard to find shirts with 3/4 sleeves, which is all I wear.

I just ordered a bunch of Henley shirts from Untuckit. I wear them under my regular shirts when it gets cold. But they're all short sleeves.

I have one white cloth mask that I wear continually. It seems to be more comfortable than others. I just wash it every couple of days and take it out again. Weird, I forgot it in the grocery store today where many were not wearing masks and I felt naked. Almost susceptible. I just avoided getting close to other people. We are so programmed these days!
 
A three shelf plant stand, was supposed to be white but was actually cream colored and shabby chic style with bare metal showing through. It will do for now, but in the spring I will take it outside and spray paint it white.

It was smaller than the image description and the specs. Why oh why do they not bother to be correct?

Anyway, I bought it because I have no energy to put together a plant stand with about 78 parts, lol, this one simply folded out the two sides and put the shelves down into the holders.
 
The dog food never arrived. Why? Because brain dead me managed to have it sent to my husband's house. I called Chewy, and before I got even started talking, except for pleasantries, I realized my mistake. Talk about doing stupid things! I could swear I hit the button with my address on it, which only goes to show that eye witness testimony is not reliable. :)
