What have you bought recently?

Every once in a while, I buy something besides food.
I bought these nifty buckleless belt things. They work great for cinching in my jeans without wearing a belt.

The husband would have liked these back when he still wore jeans. He always complained about the buckle poking him in the stomach.

Clever idea. I’m going to check those out. They would help with the gaping at the back of jeans.

They do work. I used a black pair on the sides of my black jeans today.
I know fat people say theyre curvy. But I really am curvy. :D
My Jeans always gap in the waist. Or maybe theres just too much sand in the bottom of my hourglass.
Anyways the work. :D

Be careful that they don't eventually stress the belt loops to the point where the loops tear away from the pants. Loops are not intended to bear up under much strain and therefore aren't strongly affixed.

of course you must pay for installation.... let other do the work for you, you've done it for long enough, time to let others take the strain.(y)

When I bought all my new appliances last month... there was 4 items... New Stove, Washing Machine, Tumble dryer and fridge freezer.... it cost just £39 on top of the final bill to have them install everything when they delivered , and take all the packaging away with them

The last fridge freezer I had was a stainless steel satin .. which was meant to be fingerprint resistant, but in reality it wasn't... but this new one seems to be.... it has a laquer on it which prevents marks...

I've never seen these before, but I agree about buckles digging in when you're sitting down.. and I'm not overweight ... but they just do.... so I prefer this type of belt... it has a buckle but you don't feel it and it's easier than traditional buckles to clip .... and the belt is elastic stretch cloth so it's soft...

I have ordered a new prescription in one of my current higher quality frames at a retail place. Kind of expensive.
I also ordered new glasses at Zenni online at about half the price. I included a dark glasses and a night driving clip on. We'll see how they compare. The Zenni will likely be everyday and my old frames, which are nice ones, will be for dress up whenever that might be. 🙂
Also new slip on Skechers. I wasn't sure I'd like them. They looked a bit bulky but I love them.
And, a new super cute faux leather yellow crossbody purse. It's a duller yellow not bright yellow. I held it up to my clothes in the closet and it compliments everything in there.

There's that dopamine hit I was looking for! 😁

@hearlady Santa brought me slip-on Skechers for Christmas. I love them. No bending!

I bought some Skechers early last summer and love them. One pair of slip-ons and a pair of lace-ups that I turned into slip-ons. The laces are loose enough that I can slip into them easily, but tight enough that my feet don't slop around in them. I do still have to bend to put them on, but don't mind it.

@StarSong Heads up. Tomorrow is when we'll be awash in $$ again!

Thanks for the happy news! I've been on a spending diet for the past six weeks-ish so some of tomorrow's checking account plumping may even endure for a while.
