What have you bought recently?

If you were living on the west coast, I would almost swear you probably were dealing with Les Schwab. Those bandits won't do squat unless they make a sale on you. And frankly I would never trust them to work on a vehicle, after one incident where they didn't think the front hub needed to be replacing. Even though it was sitting about 10° off

Tire & Muffler USA. I Googled them after your comment🤠. They are not franchised, but privately owned.

Gateway tire is a franchise and right up the street. Tire & Muffler has helped me out a few times and I bought my front tires there a month or so back.

I was doubly disappointed with the store manager, because the store manager is a woman. I gave her a lot more credit than just glossing over what I said, but that’s OK. I’m sure I’ll have to go back in there again and even if it’s a couple years from now, I will remember and I will get in her face about it. The cigarette she constantly has dangling out of her mouth has probably fogged her brain up.🫥<——-brain fog😂😂
 
today I paid for Gel nails at the salon.... so they stay nice for a few weeks until my hand gets properly better, and then I can have regular manicures.........

that is an irony because I've just literally read an email from the supermarket who are delivering my order in the morning.. and they have replaced the Dark chocolate that I ordered with Belgian salted caramel chocolate *ugh*.. that wwill be going back with the driver to be taken off my bill...

I'm more annoyed about it because I ordered that Dark chocolate as a gift to myself for doing so well in my recovery.. and it was pretty expensive... how irritating that they don't have it in stock.. but didn't say at checkout...

Two new dress shirts. I haven't purchased any new suits, sport coats or dress shirts in almost 6 years since I retired. I'm giving away most because they no longer fit, but there are still occasions where I need to dress up. In my former career, everyone dressed to the Nines.

It was like a trip down memory lane. I used to go to the same salesman at Nordstrom and buy a suit or sport coat with a couple of matching shirts/ties. He knew what I wanted before I did. I actually stopped in after I retired and told him I would no longer be working with him, and I thanked him for his great attention. Today I went back to Nordstrom and he is still there. He recognized and welcomed me. I bought two dress shirts and made sure he got the credit. Hey, it was something. 🤷‍♂️
