What have you bought recently?

Is there any possibility the seller might wait till the end of next week, for the balance, so you wouldn't need to use the credit?
Though with moving so soon, you might need to use the car, to make your life a wee bit easier.

Doesn’t WD-40 leave a lingering odour?


They seem weird & picky. Any chance they’re waiting for you to be out so they can try to negotiate the price down?

No the price will not go down, and if they back out we still get the due diligence money which is 15000. Yes they are weird. I think they are control freaks amount other things.
 

I bought a new Samsung Galaxy S21 for my youngest son yesterday.
It was a really good deal only cost me $350 au came unlocked and most importantly has a working camera which his iPhone decided to give up the ghost on.
At least this way he can leave the house as we are all having to check in and out of places we have been to via QR code scanning.

Something I found online may help.
Spray WD-40 on new leather shoes before you start wearing them regularly. It will help prevent blisters by softening the leather and making the shoes more comfortable. Keep the shoes waterproof and shiny by spraying them periodically with WD-40 and buffing gently with a soft cloth.

Thankyou pappy, but I wouldn’t thought oil and leather go well together ?
But I might be wrong ?
 
A blackout mask that goes over & around one lens on my glasses. It has really good reviews from those in the ‘group’ who can’t deal with the double vision. It’s coming from the US and I had to agree to customs & duties. Hopefully that’s no more than a dollar or two on a C$9 item.

Some packaged snack bars & nuts to put in our emergency evacuation bag. It’s a national brand, Joe’s, and there’s no BB date. Strange. We’ll have to remember to eat & replace them on a regular basis.

Since I retired 1-Feb-21, ms gamboolgal and I have been taking many Road Trips. We love looking at the country side and taking our time in Small Town America.

Figured since we are driving all over a good bit of the USA - it might be handy to have Video Camera in the Front and Rear - if we are ever involved in a accident.

We are not good at smart phones and computers, but we did go on ahead and get a Front and Rear Camera for the Vehicle.

The Camera seems to be idiot proof and it has a little SD Memory Card that you can can take out and view on your computer. You can also view the video on your Smart Phone. Using the Camera is simple - nothing to do, it comes on when you start the car.

The SD Card records on a endless loop, so you don't have to ever do anything unless you want to pull the card for some reason, e.g., a accident.

We have a couple of extra SD Cards so we can pull one out and replace it.

Time will tell, but it seems like this will be a good gadget to have - just incase.....

The nose pad on my favourite pair of sunglasses has gone awol. Time and again I've meant to buy another pair, so when I was in the supermarket buying salad items for our meal this evening and saw the sunglasses on the stand, I treated myself to a new pair of shades. Joe Cool, perhaps not.

Joe Cool & totally co-ordinated :D(y)
 
Had one of our two counter stool/chairs collapse into about 6 pieces (stupid purchase of China-made crap recommended by a decorator I should never have listened to), so we ordered two new ones. The mate to the one that broke is on its last legs also after less than 2 years. What we bought was this model/style (but not finish) hardwood, swivel-stool made by an Amish chair company in PA.

Unfortunately, we'll have to wait 7 months or more for delivery due to problems in the country's supply chain, even with U.S. made goods.,
 
I'm afraid my buying is pretty boring lately.
Groceries......medications......medications are a lot cheaper than groceries......maybe i should give up food, and live on meds.

Back into buying landscaping stones......still can't buy them online......wonder why.
Bought 3 galvanized water troughs for raised garden. 2ft x 2ft x 6ft.
Almost have the stones down where they're going......then will get them delivered.

How is it to clean? Oh, nevermind you probably have a dishwasher which I don't.

I have never used a dishwasher. There is one in this house, but I don’t know how to use it and dishwashers “seem” dirty to me. 😂. I prefer to hand wash and let my dishes air dry.
