All Purpose Rant Away Thread - 3.2.1 GO!

[walkonby]

my neighbour ( across the street ) his vehicle is possessed! The alarm goes off in the middle of the night, it went off again last night around 1:30 a.m. It went off yesterday ( daylight ) right when DH was in his deepest sleep. They park RIGHT IN FRONT of my curb so the sound blares towards the bedroom window area naturally. This a.m. I spoke to him gently about it, he assured me he disconnected something now until he can get it to a mechanic. Low and behold not an hour after we spoke it went off just before the school kids were heading into class!
argh!!

Tried to get a deal at Walmart St.Catharines (4th & Louth) and denied Price Match

Glade Large Candles (2): $14 - PM(FB; $6.02 OFF) - $6(2*$3 Coupon) - $5.00(2*CO51) = -$2.00 After tax

For the Food Basics Flyer, it does not exactly specify the type of candle, only the following: "Glade Candle or Wax Melts 1 to 6 units", but she didn't let it go, I had something else in my order that I was only using to get up to $20 on CO51, but when she denied the PM, I said I won't take them. I started to walk away and she asked If I still wanted the other item. Nope, only reason was for cash back, she looked so confused about it.

At least he got word from one neighbour that the alarm is an issue. Hope he makes an effort to recoup some face by letting you know it's fixed and moving the car to another spot.

I told DH that I didn't want to sight in his cannon of a rifle. Well, I did and now I am sporting a gash from the top of my nose to over my eyebrow. I will probably get a black eye from all the bruising too. Now I have to find massive sunglasses to cover the mess up.

Went to Superstore today because they had blueberries advertised in the flyer for 2.98(organic ones which No Frills doesn't carry so I couldn't price match). Go to get my fruit and veggies first before the rest of my groceries, they have NO BLUEBERRIES! Not even regular ones. They also had no strawberries and no lettuce.

A black eye is the best accessory! Dd and I were playing when she was younger and I bent down to her level , she got over excited and slammed a door in my face, the knob hit me right above my cheekbone.
Also had another in my partying days but that's a long story lol

If it turns purple or red use a green concealer and apply your regular concealer or foundation over it.

Im getting so sick of being in pain. I had a burst of energy and busted my butt tidying my storage closet, lifting heavy boxes , moving stuff and throwing away things and hurt my back.

Plus my pain meds got screwed up this month so I'm short and have to wait until Wednesday to see my doctor. Fccckk

My lovely dog puked on the bed...again. He hardly ever pukes but when he does it is always on the bed. Went through the duvet cover we have on the bed to protect the bed from wet, dirty paws etc, then through the quilt then stained the silk duvet. On top of that part of it rolled off the bed and landed in my nice leather shoe, a nice big glob of puke perfectly filling the entire shoe. The last time he puked into the cup of my bra...also perfectly filling it. Before that he hacked up a big gob of grass on the edge of the bed which promptly rolled off the bed and landed with a great plop onto the carpet...yes that would be the new carpet. And then previously he puked up great gobs of bile all over the bare mattress just after I took the sheets off the bed. Wasn't gone three minutes and he knows he is not allowed on bed without his cover....good thing he is super cute and love him to pieces...that's all I can say. Did I mention I hate puke! Ugh week stomach! Dh had to come to the rescue as he knows what would happen if I tried to clean it up!

tulle!! bah spent over 2 hours sewing red tulle to the bottom of my crinoline to give it the pop of red colour for under my skirt... now i think it would have been beyond easier if i just did a few layers of red tulle and take a quarter of the time and probably would have cost the same amount...(and easier to remove after halloween if i didn't want the red on it)

i spent entirely too long at the sewing machine today between finishing off the petal skirt, the tulle, taking up the sleeves on kidlets hogwarts uniform (and putting in a wand pocket) i'm soo done with sewing for awhile (though knowing me i'll have a last minute project to finish

Why call them ketchup chips when they don't even have a HINT of ketchup flavour?
SO disappointing, Nosh & Co. from Rexall.

Back to brand name...

Regarding Barney bra

I emailed forever 21 last week. Never heard from them so I just figured they would not return.
i decided to "keep" the bra then , removed tags and everything.

Next morning I get an email from them saying, sorry for the late response, sorry for getting the wrong item and to return it -__-

No beach down, I'm not returning it. hah

Stupid coupons inserted in easy ups bought in Canada. The last 3 boxes I bought had coupons for 2$ off easy ups NOT VALID IN CANADA! I usually get coupons in them that are always US only but this one is really bugging me because it's a good coupon I really could have used.
