Good Morning! It must have rained here too but I didn't hear it. Just noticed some puddles on my way to work.

I did absolutely nothing last night and needed it I think! Will do some running around tonight since DS works. I will drop him off and hit a few stores on my way home.

Have to return a Shoppers item, prepaid label was included, so I'm happy.

Received an email from RENs pet store - $25 off coupon, so tomorrow I will pop in and stock up, perfect timing as I was planning on going anyways. Also took advantage of free shipping and 10% rebate on Ebates at indigo' s, I love their candles, made in Canada and 25% off 

will pop into Fortinos and hope I can get Ontario strawberries, as today is the last day for my raincheck price of $3.44

Also won $15 on the bachelorette bingo card, in spite of the comments about it. Any bacherlorette fans here?

Not a fan of the show but I did play one of the bingo cards recently. Would not mind the cash instead of the diamond ring prize!

The Kirkland jar of stuffed olives was empty by last night. Too good to last the week!
Glad I had frozen vegetarian spring rolls in the freezer-heated them up for breakfast today to get me out the door to my eye appt. Had to pay for the full exam this time, so my grocery budget is quite reduced. Have $7 to spend at the farmer's market soon. Bought a couple of Pepsi drinks as I forgot my water bottle on my second trip out the door.

Had quite a vivid dream during the early morning--due to caffeine from all the Brisk iced tea I was consuming yesterday. Better watch that in the evenings, to drink less or none. Somehow I was involved in some caper with Angelina and Brad and family but I do recall I had seen Brad Pitt's new movie trailer before I went to bed, so that explains why his family was in my dream.

Ms. Sunshine came out in the early afternoon after the oodles of rain this morning. Happy! Just have to avoid being melted on my walk home or refill a bottle with water first.

@cath007 I think it’s a personal decision. We eat a lots of nuts so I would keep it and wait for a sale or pay the difference
