I just took the first one in for yearly check up, got heartworm meds $277 for her. I have two more going in this week also. So will probably about $1000, this week for the 3 of them. One on them is large and his meds are much higher than the two littles. Next week 2 of them need to go to the groomer. Worth every penny to have then healthy and happy!!

I just bought a new Shark Navigator vacuum thank to recommendations I got from folks on this forum. I love it and got a good deal, it was already a good price and I had a 20% off coupon at Bed, Bath & Beyond.

I also bought a new soft cat carrier at a local pet store, reasonable price and got $10 off for customer discount.

I really prefer to shop in the brick and mortar stores if I can, I like to see things in person and not have to jump through hoops to return something. I did buy some more Dinovite for my dog this week too, and that was online.

Thats the one I have, isn't it great!
 

Bonne Maman jam. We rarely eat jam so I don’t mind paying for something that has more flavour and sugar isn’t the main ingredient. Didn’t notice it has a very short shelf/fridge life.

The shoes that I ordered on Sunday were on sale today. I did a chat line with the store and they will amend the price. Now I just hope the shoes fit.
 
Yesterday I ordered a Carrom Nok Hockey board (larger size) from Dick's Sporting Goods. About $100 including tax and shipping. Other retailers only had the smaller size.

When growing up, N-H was one of my favorite games to play with my siblings. I got one when my kids were growing up but after years of use it started to come apart. Am eager to teach my grandkids.

This is a leson I've learned since O/H has been gone..I can't lift 100 ltrs of Compost myself... and I'm certainly not going to pay the high prices amazon et al are charging to deliver ... gotta figure how to get it here, without actually trying to lift it...
 

What have you bought recently?​


Bought a new pressure canner yesterday
Couldn't find the 15 gauge jiggler anywhere for the old one (for fish and meat) so bought a new canner
No jigglers on this one, just the temp gauge
She's happy
I'm happy
 
2 Hard-back books...

A telescopic magnetic pick up tool... ( did have one but I've lost it)..

Button hook and zip puller... due to my arthritic fingers on my right hand I'm finding it more and more difficult to grip the zip on jeans and boots..

Plug Pullers.. again as above, harder now to grip plugs to pull them out, so I need something to help...

The splint rings I bought arrived today, I was a little concerned that they wouldn't fit, because I had to measure my fingers with a ring gauge but where these rings differed I had to measure on my knuckles where the Arthritic bone is swollen.. so I wasn't confident the splint rings would fit... and I'm over the moon not only do they fit, but they look really pretty as well as being a medical splint ring, no-one would ever guess they were other than a really pretty ring....I immediately ordered more...

In reading this, It just struck me, that my granny who died in her early 80's.. and in '82.. would have been totally unable to understand someone of her age and some older, buying not only from an online store, but buying and using the latest technology

lol...only if you come and help me lay the new decking and put up the new trellis...:ROFLMAO:
Click to expand...
I love it! Back in the day when I was a divorced mother with two teenagers, I realized how hard it is to get things done when He took all the tools and left me only with kitchen stuff. Asking a man for help was sometimes necessary because they have the strength and the tools, and maybe even know-how. But damn if they didn't want me to do things for them but not with them. You know go make something good to eat, instead of working on the car together. Men taught each other how to fix the car and not a woman. No thank you! I rather work with a woman and get things done as equals who enjoy being independent. So yes, I will gladly help you get that deck and new trellis done.

Yesterday I 'bought' 10 new tops/blouses in that I took them to the tailor to have them all altered from thigh length to hip length, and one to have the sleeves shortened, which will give me 10 whole new looks with existing clothes.. (y)

Also bought a 60's style Geometric picture and frame for the spare room... it hangs nicely at right angles to the Picasso...
 
Returned two items. Saw the one was reduced so they gave me the discount and I kept it. Almost bought a beautiful emerald green sweater and then noticed a flaw across the chest.

Ordered a Kirkland water dispenser & filters. Will be an adequate substitute for now while my husband is too unstable to be lifting the 5 gallon bottles. We were going through 1.5 gallon of drinking water a day and those 1 gallon jugs were building up while waiting to go back to the recycle depot. I’d like to find SS refillable 2.5 gallon jugs.
