What have you bought recently?

A potato peeler. My other had a bit of rust on it so I tossed it over a year ago. I was using a couple of dual purpose fancy ones that I paid too much for. Finally remembered to buy a new one the other day. $10 for Oxo. What a difference having a sharp blade makes! It doesn’t take too much to make me happy.
 
A new Oak TV unit which someone was selling on FB marketplace for a fraction of the new price after changing their mind after buying it, so it was never used .. Bargain of the month...

ETA..this isn't for us.. it's to put in my new daughters' temp rental house when she gets here in December

technisionWell, i broke my non-shopping mood.
On Friday my new Ipad was delivered.......i'm so happy with it......Liquid Retina Display......12.9".......256 GB.......A12Z Bionic Chip.
You want to know something amazing.......
Any computers i've bought in the past.......wherever i've bought them......i paid a technician a fee to set it up.
No more.
I did the set up on this ipad.......all.......by.......myself........will wonders never cease😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁.
Sometimes i totally amaze myself.
Also got a protective case for it.
I think some companies have way too much money..........both came from the same retail......but......they came on 2 different couriers........ipad at 3:00 on Purolator.......and.......at 5:00, the case came on a different courier, both on friday........go figure.🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃.

My electric toothbrush quit a little while ago.......ordered one from Walmart......came yesterday.

Think that's the end of my shopping for a while.
All that shopping played me right out.
 
Reflective poster board, led string lights, glow sticks, glow stick glasses, sparkler cake candles. My niece turns Sweet 16 this week and we're celebrating her birthday with a few friends outside around a huge bonfire. I'm making three ft tall 1 and 6 out of the reflective poster board and am attaching the string lights to the numbers. Figure with those and the glow sticks, the kids will have great photo ops. We're not planning a super spreader event! Of the four attendees her age, she and another have had Covid recently; my nephew of course was exposed to my niece when she was sick. The other child is home from boarding school and has been all over creation this weekend visiting friends. Adults are going to wear masks and social distance (wish I'd thought of reflective mask material). It's supposed to be 60 F Tuesday evening which is a great outdoor bonfire forecast.
 
Today I bought a used but in excellent condition, large square coffee table from Facebook market place.. for my daughter to put in her temp rental house... and I bought a ton of cleaning stuff, including mop and bucket , a large pack of TP, cloths , scourers, rubber gloves etc.. to put in the rental in readiness for her arrival ..closer to the date of her arrival I'll fill her fridge and freezer up..( she's got a 3 day drive ahead of her to get here)

Today I bought a ton of stuff... but amongst all that we had to quickly pop to the shops half way through assembling my daughters wooden sleigh bed, because hubs needed wood glue.. to further strengthen the screws. We had to go to the supermarket for it because all Non essential shops are closed during this second lockdown ( only another 3 days to go ) .. and while we were there I bought a long sleeve shirt smock style top... it's a sort of pea green.. a colour I wouldn't usually wear..

Also we had a delivery waiting when we got home around 9pm tonight.. a hand held vac, and a hand held steamer which I deliberately didn't order until last night so it wouldn't arrive today... oooh well... good thing we have the Ring Video doorbell, and was able to see the Amazon driver and tell him where to put it for safety
 
Went shopping with my daughter this afternoon. She wanted to get a big grocery shop in on the day she arrived, so she can sit back and rest for the next few days..so I went with her.

I didn't need anything but I ended up buying a few extra groceries.. .. and also a red patterned blouse top which I already have but this was now 50% off, and I like it so no probs having 2 .. .. and a new coffee mug..I'm a sucker for buying pretty mugs . Also got a box of 100 nitrile gloves ..and a box of Black diposable masks for my husband instead of the usual blue ones..
