@lizzie bargain pneumonia is sneaky. I have heard of several people so sick and it’s takes a trip to the ER to realize what it is, feel better soon.
Friends don't let real friends pay full price.

You said it @lilo0003 ! Four appliances?! Ouch to your pocket book and patience. All of this seems to bring validation to that phrase " it's always something ! ". We've said it flippantly at times when a roof leaks or shingles get blown away, or when one of our fur-babies required unexpected vet services.
But at this point it's not funny and I'm starting to suspect manufacturers are making things that DON'T last on purpose!
( that was sarcasm, I accept that they do )
No one enjoys unboxing a new item for the home more than me ( Queen of the small appliances here ) but these big items bite you hard in the backside!
babies teach us acceptance

Happy Thursday!
Hot sunny day here today! I need a shower before I go out for a walk!
Enjoying my coffee and just had 2 eggs and rye toast for breakfast.
This is the time of year my annual bill comes in for house and car insurance. Received house insurance and surprisingly it went down a bit. Was totally expecting a large jump. Hope its the same deal for car insurance! Yeah for PC Points lol. the only good thing about paying a big bill with credit card

Good Morning Everyone,
My schedule for this week got a little messed up and I found out late yesterday next week might get a little messed up as well so I decided it was best to get our grocery shopping out of the way.
I picked up the following:
2 x Green Onions $0.88 (PM Freshco)
2 x Mangos $0.99
1 x Naturally Imperfect Mushrooms 680g $4.00
1 x Blueberries $1.88 (PM Food Basics)
1 x Naturally Imperfect Apples 6-lbs $5.00 + 100 pts/$
4 x Cucumbers $0.64 (PM Wal-Mart) + 100 pts/$
1 x Garlic 3-Count $0.87
1 x Naturally Imperfect Carrots 5lbs $3.50
6 x Tortillas Whole Wheat $1.75 Wub 2 or More
*They did not have any White, will have to check later in the week as I need more white
1 x Kraft Ranch Dressing $2.47 (PM Wal-Mart)
1 x Shreddies Family Size $2.99 (PM Food Basics)
4 x Vanilla Yogurt $1.97 (PM Food Basics) + 800 pts/$4
4 x Frozen Spinach $1
2 x Perogies $2
2 x Breyer Ice Cream $2.99 (PM Zehrs) + 400 pts/$3
I got everything on my list except the White Tortillas, they were stocking the shelves in all departments well I was there and I did loop back but they were not sure if they had more. I also wanted to price match Olive Oil to Wal-Mart but they only had 3 bottles and the oil looked cloudy so I passed. I might see if Mom needs anything from Wal-Mart and if she does I might place a pick-up order that one of us could grab.
I also had the laugh, the 454g packs of Mushrooms are part of the buy 4 get 4000 pts but their price was $3.99/pack vs the Naturally Imperfect were $4 for a 680g pack.
I did notice as I went down some aisle just in general there were a lot of bare spots and the store manager was scanning all the tags, my guess was to see if they had some in the back to bring out.
My fridge is now bursting at the seams we are stocked up which is good as I am hoping to ingredient and meal prep this weekend as I have a feeling next week may be very busy for me. So I will try to plan simple meals and have stuff ready if Mom is in pain and cannot stand for long periods of time if there are days I am busy when we need to make dinner.
Happy Thursday Everyone2022 is going to be my year, the year I find organization in my life and the year I focus on myself,
follow along as tackle day to day life and whatever else 2021 throws at me:

@harbie I have been known to just buy bananas at Costco, to the surprise of the exit employees checking my bill (oh and the $1.50 hotdog and pop combo too)

@coupongirl Giant Tiger has really nice t-shirts for around the $8 price. I bought several last year and they are good quality. Also the men's ankle socks (CCM) three pack is $3.50 - I find they last longer than the ladies socks.

@coupongirl I hope its not bone on bone. My mother had that, wore a brace and was so happy with her knee replacement. She said after the surgery that the pain was gone.

@cath007 I believe this is because of the strict French language laws in Quebec. My friend who worked for the government got in trouble for posting an English sign. Apparently stores can be fined for having English material. Crazy but true.

@walkonby I still have my Kenmore washing and dryer and I dread the day they break down. They were purchased in the 1990's and still work. Just a minor repair on the washing machine recently related to the safety feature.
What brand did you replace with?

I used to walk out most times with $4.99 for romaine lettuce when our pup ate it by the boat loads but now that I can’t really find coupons for stuff we now eat (vegan), my PC points are not really giving me offers for ani buy except the week after I’ve stocked up we’ve shopped more at Costco plus I love the clothing section and the garden centre
