Lola - I saw a very very similar fruit stand at Coscto last week!

[bargain_hunter_lola]

Thanks for the ideas! I'll check Winners (although ours is crappy, when we lived in Ottawa I loved their Winners) and I was at Costco the other day and didn't see them but I'll check back later in the week (could have missed them or not have hit the sales floor yet).

TY

Hi All,
Just popping in to say "Hi" and Happy Monday everyone.
Very busy today.

Very good nature of things doc.
If you're at all concerned about the environment, this will open your eyes wide.
It's 45 minutes long but worth the watch.

Congrats, cabbie, on the new job.
That's one job I wouldn't/couldn't ever do - no way could I sit on my arse all day and sell on the phone! What product/service will you be hawking?
Good luck!

Its all inbound..usually people want info or want to sign up. Or they have an issue with their bill. Its for net/cable company but dont know which yet.

yeah it all depends. At our winners found nice mirrors and pretty sure i saw one of those fruit stands there..even bought a pair of sean john jeans pretty cheap like $20 when they retail for over $100..

Our HomeSense (same company as Winners) is pretty good so I'm going to try there as soon as DS wakes up.

It's not a must have so if it takes awhile to find one, that's cool.

Trying to decide on dinner. I just did a huge clean of the kitchen so I don't really want to mess if up before DH arrives tomorrow morning. It's always nice to walk into a nice clean house.

[cabmonk]

Probably no dinner here..had indian buffet for lunch now so full lol.

[sheetsofemptycanvas]

I've got tomato mac soup simmering away and garlic bread sticks rising, so I can relax until supper time!

[cabmonk]

Going to walmart to buy a couple dish towels and maybe something to drink. Just waiting for the bus now and bus depot has wifi..

[bargain_hunter_lola]

Yay for McDonalds play place. Kids ran around for over an hour and then we ate. No clean up and now they are a bit worn. Yay! lol
