What have you bought recently?

@Timewise 60+ I need a Shooter!! ๐Ÿถ He is adorable.

I bought some new kitchen knives this morning, a set of two serrated and one a utility all with bright colored handles and protective sheaths. After decades using my one and only serrated knife, about 5 inch blade I decided to get some new knives.

I tested the smaller serrated one on a grapefruit. Oh my, it cut the grapefruit with no effort, a close cut and no extra juice on the cutting board. I am proud of myself for saying I should and will get some new knives.

I am ashamed to have bought Cadbury, the same as the mini eggs, but in Halloween colors. I am bad. But satisfied. :rolleyes:๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿ—ก๏ธ๐ŸŠ
 
Neither the drug store nor the supermarket pharmacy had Vitamin D drops. Aha! Why not try the health food store? They had several different D drops.

They also had chlorophyll. I used to take it because it made me feel better in a way I can't describe.

The winters here long and dark. After my first winter I felt utterly exhausted (again, I can't describe it). I need all the help I can get.

Is there a reason you use vitamin D drops rather than the soft gel tablets?
 
Dropped $191 at Costco Business Center yesterday. Bought some groceries, a traditional Christmas gift I give my children every Christmas in memory of my mother, and some baking ingredients for holiday foods and cookies. I bought four lbs of butter (which has ratcheted to $14.69). I go through at least 25 lbs of butter during baking season. I've now got 16 lbs in my freezer.

It's the time of year to for me to buy holiday needs in earnest, minimizing the November/December hit to my purse. Can't imagine many things will get cheaper in the next couple of months, least of all food. Since early summer, as they've gone on sale at my produce specialty store, I've been purchasing bulk nuts for baking and for eating out of hand. They (and butter) keep well when ziplock bagged and stashed in the freezer.

Good thing I have plenty of freezer space.

Edited to clarify - The four pound package of butter was $14.69. Butter isn't now $14.69/lb - heaven forbid!

I upgraded iPhone 11 to iPhone 13, changed my mind returned iPhone 13 waiting for iPhone 14 to be shipped. Bought small square eyeglass frames from eBay. Framre has nose pads instead of full nose bridge so I contacted seller to return glass frames. Glass frames arrived decided to keep them but not until after ording different eyeglass frames from eBay. Waiting for delivery, keeping both glass frames to be fitted with bifocal lens at upcoming eye appointment.

I ordered a pizza for the grandson in case he wants junk instead of proper food. I went out to go pick it up, once again I had the left lights on in my poor little car. Got my handy dandy Noco charger. It hooked it up hit the power button, the theft alarm went crazy. I have no idea why, has not done that before. I looked in the car turn the alarm and the hazards lights off. There was no button I can see. I have never had to use the hazards in all these years.

Came in got online, surely my friend Mr. Youtube is angry he did not get invited to come for the brisket dinner. He refused to answer my question. I even checked the fuse box but found nothing there.

So, a shout out to all, does anyone know what to do? This is a 2008 hyundai eleantra? PS, I did drive it down and pick up that pizza with the flashers on, at least the grandson will be happy!

I just realized something. My snarky comment "whoopie" was dreadful. I'm lucky I am able to buy groceries. ๐Ÿ˜’

I don't think anyone took offense to your Whoopie, we are all happy when we get the shopping done!! I pray that all at least are able to get food. If we have to have help, if we have to go to the food bank or church, everyone is grateful. We all say "whoopie"

Agreed. (Actually, when Rose said, "whoopie" I thought she meant it as a comment on how unexciting her recent shopping has been.)
