What have you bought recently?

As I've said before I still am scared of going to stores or we'd be up to our gills in stuff. I enjoy buying stuff for the home.

I went out yesterday. First I went to the post office to mail a package. Then I went to fill up the car with gasoline. Then went to the grocery store.

While out I stopped at Dollar Tree. The cashier was coughing up a storm and I froze. I could see her coughing up droplets. I came home and washed my face and hands.

Why do people who are sick go to work?

She wasn't wearing a mask. She didn't even try to cover her mouth.
:mad: some people just don't get it that health once compromised isn't easy to undo. Then they don't care about others.
 

They are opening another store that is closer to us.

Went out to get sister Lucy birthday gifts. I'll find her other gifts in Amazon. I can't find anything I think she will like. Went to Marshall's and walked around in circles.

Bought several online shower filters over the last twenty years or so.
It helps reduce itchy scalp and itchy skin because it takes out most of the chemicals in the tap/shower water that cause problems.
Last I checked, a five or eight stage filter, including vit c stage, was only about twenty green pieces of paper. :
I had no idea that the water can cause the scalp to itch! My skin itches, too, and sometimes right after a shower. That makes sense.
 
I bought a Sonic scrubber set.. well I bought it a few days ago.. but it;s due to arrive today...

I've been doing quite a bit of online shopping in the last couple of weeks. From Amazon I bought a Samsung 1 TB SSD hard drive at my son's recommendation. They are supposed to be less likely to go bad. I can't believe how tiny it is compared to my other hard drives...about the size of a credit card, just thicker. I bought him replacement ear pads for his headphones as part of his birthday present. I also bought a box of Taylor's green tea with jasmine and got a good deal on Lutein supplements from Lucky Vitamin. I got three bottles. They were $2.60 cheaper per bottle than what I paid last time from Amazon.

I ordered my sweets for the next few months from Walmart and my son picked them up. I got Voortman's sugar free cookies and Russell Stover sugar free candies. I didn't get the assortment shown here but bought separate bags of the mint patties, coconut and Pecan Delights which are similar to "turtles" (all pictured).

I bought two t-shirts this weekend. I do not need any t-shirts, there is no room in my suitcase either. They were 'impulse buys'. One a Niagara Falls t-shirt and one a Buffalo GardenWalk t-shirt. Then today the thread about water made me wonder how much water is used to make a t-shirt and I googled it and it is 400 gallons per t-shirt. So now I feel bad about the 800 gallons of water. I will have to wear these new t-shirts until they are nothing but threads left.

HD..I also have the LaCie hard drive. I think mine is only 500 TB though. It's orange just like yours and is called the Rugged. I used to use it soley for storing my music. After having a flash drive fail on me when I went for my Apple Logic (digital music program) lesson, I got the Rugged. Now I use it as an extra, extra storage device. Never had any problems with it. My first external hard drives were LaCie too. They are bigger than the Rugged and stand upright. When I got my new Mac in 2017, which was actually manufactured in 2015, it didn't have ports to support the connectors for the first two LaCie's I'd gotten. We did a daisy chain with the Rugged and got the information off those. I also have a Western Digital hard drive which is about half the size of the Rugged. It's amazing how much smaller devices have gotten even though they have larger storage capacity.
