Question Of The Day, Sunday, July 9, 2017

[micknsnicks2mom]

good morning!

a simple question for today......



What was the most recent thing you bought?


i'll start!

i placed an order at Honeyville dot com, where i bought two 50lb bags -- one bag of farina (cream of wheat), and one bag of 9-grain cracked wheat cereal mix. Honeyville emailed me a promo code for 15% off any order , and i had already been setting aside money in my budget towards my yearly order from them. the 15% off made it worth it to me to place part of my order now.


how about you?

Well, we did a bit of shopping yesterday:

• 2 large cookie sheets
• a shield to prevent pie crusts burning (I got it for 31 cents from a store that was going out of business and had 75% off everything that had already been 50% off. And 31 cents is cheaper than using foil as a shield.)
• 8 10-ounce custard cups
• a long-handled basting brush to use on the new grill (which gets quite a bit hotter than the old grill and my old basting brush is simply too short to use safely)
• a pair of salad tongs
• an oblong cake pan with a carry-it lid
• a box of Vanilla Caramel k-cups for Dear Richard
• a new Eagles cap for Dear Richard
• 3 pairs of king pillowcases for the cats' pillows
• a window box fan
• 6 tee-shirts (I wear x-large t-shirts for bed)
• 4 bottles of nail polish

I just ordered on Amazon....knee pads for installing a wood floor, and a backflow preventer for a new sprinkler system, SIGH...... we sound like all work! Oh wait, I did add on some cat treats for my herd, if you get them as an add on they are a lot cheaper. I put them on my wish list and order them when I have enough for free shipping.

A pair of denim shorts which I think I look too fat in so thinking how I can take them back after wearing them !

I brought a new mattress last Saturday. I paid a lot more than I wanted to but I hope it will last as long as I do. Next items are fridge, stove, new carpet and a new bathroom.

a 50lb bag of chicken crumbles from a farm store. I use it as cat litter.

Placed an order with Chewy.com last evening: canned dog food, and 2 boxes of Arm & Hammer Seal and Clump cat litter.

Seems all my money goes on my pets! LOL

Does it count if you bought something for someone else? I went into the city yesterday to see my daughter and bought her a new shopping cart at Bed Bath & Beyond because her old one lost a wheel and broke. She can't possibly carry all her groceries at once and lives in a very busy area so gave up her car several years ago.

I bought shampoo and conditioner yesterday.

Kitten food and some treats for Asha.

 

[verna davies]

Weighing scales for a baby with the hope I would be able to weigh my cats. No such luck, they wouldnt keep still long enough so it is going back tomorrow.

 

[artiemom]

yesterday, I picked up some Solid Gold Tuna for Artie and a box of litter... story of my life.....oh, I did buy an ice cream for myself!

 

[angels mommy]

Some long overdue new shorts & tanks for working!

 

[LTS3]

Just groceries.

 

[angels mommy]

Yep, those too!

 

[DreamerRose]

I bought five summer tees from Kohls.com. I am thrilled with them; I got polkadots mainly and they were all on sale for about $9. I am so tired of solid colors and paisley prints.

 

[sargon]

An Amazon Dash Wand is the most recent item i have purchased unless you count a couple of food items.

 

[kashmir64]

A new cable for my old printer (LPT1 to USB) and two more memory cards for the Game Cube.

Weighing scales for a baby with the hope I would be able to weigh my cats. No such luck, they wouldnt keep still long enough so it is going back tomorrow.

Try putting a deep dish, like tupperware, zero that out and put the kittens in it to weigh.
It won't work after they are 4 weeks, nothing shy of hog-tying them and using a bathroom scale is going to slow them down.
