If you have your prescription, check out Zenni Optical. (online). A great place to pick up some spare glasses at a reasonable price.
What have you bought recently?

I took my prescriptions to the Walmart eye center. They made my sunglasses with single vision and my other pair are bifocals. I can’t remember the exact price now, but I know for sure both of them only cost me about $500 together.

i boght my progressives online at Glasses USA and the price was good. I chose Muse Corvalllis in blue because I like both the shape and color. I have been very happy.
Considering doing this in MY bedroom. Except I don't think the two dogs would fit, too.
I bought one very like this some months ago. Love it! Doesn't have the luminous numbers but it is much easier to use, especially when the item being measured is very long.Last week I bought a bunch of stuff online..it arrived today....
One of them is this heavy duty retractable Measuring tape.. with luminous numbers.. to replace mine which is broken..
I'm more excited about this than anything else I bought because I paid less than £4 for it.. and its a stunning piece of workmanship..seriously.. it's bigger than my palm and really heavy.... I would have paid more than double this if I'd bought it in the big box DIY store..

What an interesting idea. I clicked the link but didn't see an explanation for how the mailbox communicates with the receiver in your house. Presuming it's not wired or wifi.I have a very long driveway and cannot see my mailbox from inside my house. I got tired of walking down the drive to see if the mailman came. So, I bought a mailbox chime alert system. Works like a charm and no more walking for no reason to check for mail.

Thanks for the link.
Our mail route is served by a walking postal worker. Mailboxes are on the houses or front gates rather than at the curb.
We cut a mail slot cut into a wall of our (attached) garage. Inside the garage there's a shelf with a container on it to catch the mail, so my question about how your mailbox alarm words was a matter of curiosity.
Just bought another Christmas tree... a small one to put on the sideboard. I have a large one in my front room and a living one in the kitchen, and a tiny one in the hall. When all the lights are switched on, it really brightens things up at this gloomy time of the year.

Added a couple of 15 lb dumbbells and ordered a 20 lb one as i already had one. They were half price
I might regret this next purchase, a pair of skates so I can join the grandkids this winter on the local rink when they stay over.

A new tv unit... and a small sideboard...matching...
The sideboard is going where another sidebard already sits. The current one is where I keep some of my trainers.. but I hate the cupboard, ... have wanted to replace it for years but the alcove it sit in is quite narrow and I could never find another small cupboard that woud fit in there.. that I liked...until now...
This comes already assembled as does the matching TV unit... both in Country cream

An OXO pizza wheel.
YouTube has some sharpening suggestions for my KitchenAid wheel that I'll try before giving up and pitching it. Considering how much pizza I make, having a second wheel isn't a bad idea even if I can restore good edges to my KA wheel.
