Last Thing You Bought?

[Amy SF]

We had our shopping trip to Target today. Along with the usual mundane stuff, I often like to get something fun or interesting. I got:

2 boxes of Breathe Right nasal strips
2 multipacks of Fiji water, 2 coupons
2 packages of Tillamook sliced cheese, 1 Target coupon
A 3 lb bag of Clementines
An Olives to Go! package of Kalamata olives, coupon
2 bags of Hall's cough drops, coupon
1 Revlon slant tweezer, coupon
1 package of lunch-sized Up paper plates for eating in my room
4 rolls/1 package of Up toilet paper
2 bags of Snyder's of Hanover Sourdough pretzel nibblers

And the fun/interesting item:





Only I got pink rather than yellow. My apartment door won't stay open by itself. It doesn't work perfectly because it sits on carpet, but it still works.

I bought strong alcohol (20％) of raspberry and blackberry flavour. I know this is a shame, but after 6 hours of playing in Annie's class, i need something stronger than beer. It's not that i'm not pleased with Annie, but i'm just tired from yesterday, when i'd been working with my little shitty boss

You've got a 'vegan shop'?

I had to go to CVS Pharmacy for a couple of prescriptions and got a few other things. Too lazy to list everything.



$53.77 total. The prescriptions were free thanks to Medi-Cal.

We ordered a new king-size bed frame & mattress for a good price with a 20% off code! Would love a super king but that might be pushing it the space we have atm. One day....

A super king would be ideal if you’re planning to share your bed with one or more roommates of the beasty type. Is that your plan?

I ordered one of those padded mats for the kitchen for when I'm cooking and doing dishes. It's supposed to help take the pressure off your feet and your back when you're standing for long periods. My mom has one and I really like hers. It helps with my back.

Today or maybe tomorrow we are up to buying a new fridge. Our old one is not well already.

Dang. Aldi just have them for $9.99 last week and I really wanted one! I have that 'plantar facitis" and my feet really hurt first thing in the morning. I didn't get it because every rug I ever put in the kitchen got pee'd on! Never had a cat pee outside the box in this house, but I don't want to invite trouble.
I did bring home a piece of rubber pad from work thats perfect duct taped to my slippers

I bought a bottle of 20% alcohol with a cloudberry flavour, because tomorrow is my day off, and because i'm really exhausted. And before going to work today i went to the company which name can be translated as "Healthy life", and bought a B12 supplement

I drove to a discount store for cat food and got things like three little spatulas for .99 cents, and a paring knife with a self sharpening holder, 16 bean soup blend, and frozen veggies
Came home wanting to make soup- and no carrots or celery, so I walked to Aldi. So nice and cool! I love this weather!
Found I didn't have enough lentils so it's the 16 bean mix.

I bought tiny kitchen implements at Family Dollar, one buck apiece... I now have a tiny spatula, a tiny whisk, and some tiny tongs... they're all purple silicone & they're adorable! LOL

Last night I bought a 15-pack of All Day IPA (cans), a 3.5 lb bag of Luvsome indoor formula dry cat food (on sale for $3.99, plus e-coupon for 75¢-off, plus paper coupon for $1.25-off!), two bars of Endangered Species 88% dark chocolate, and a 16 oz Simple Truth organic vegetable tray (discount bin for $2.49)... gave the ranch to Jerry.

I ordered three Luci lights for emergency preparedness. All these storms/hurricanes have got me thinking that I need to have food/water/supplies on hand if the power goes out for any length of time. And now that I have the house, I have the room to stock up on a few supplies. These lights are LED and solar-powered and you inflate them. They look like little cylinders, but they throw off quite a bit of light. I like that they don't require batteries.
