I am not sure if I should laugh or cry but here is a great way to save money. Have your DH shred your credit card. He thought he was shredded his old card and then I spent an hour tearing the house apart after my card was no longer on the table. I am going to USA next week and did not plan to pay for roaming so Apple Pay is not an option. So fingers crossed my new card arrives in 3 days.
Friends don't let real friends pay full price.

Mail-bills, Marks.com sale Oct 13-15 card, real estate flyer and candidate mailer card.
Lovely afternoon for leaf raking. Laundry did fine on the lines but the washer has been dumping sticky bits on loads and I recall doing a washer bleach cycle (not spending money on Affresh tabs) last month. Going to have to take another run at cleaning areas of washer drum and spindle to get whatever is sticking around.
Evening-mailed an item then out to Cdn Tire for the Timothy's K-cups( no tax charged) and to new outlet store. Except outlet store is pretty much same as before (some racks have been changed and lots of the dark wooden general store bins are still in use). Clothing section is almost non-existent, toy section is not really around (few toys in baby supplies aisle), hardware is now mystery box section (not much pegged on racks), party supplies and office printer paper have jumped the shark (small appliances are stocked) and there's a small selection of charging cords and a $72 Lenovo Active pen on the shelves.
Skip the Dishes orange insulated food boxes (like oversize pizza boxes) are $45 apiece. Food items-most are from summer 2022 expiries but check drinks. Pepsi Zero case had Dec 2021 date. $5 for huge bag of Maynard Wine Gums (summer 2022 expiry), $2 Wheat Thins, $1 Ryvita Muesli crunch (Nov 2021-ok for me because I like this item as a snack).
Mustela baby care items-new packaging and higher prices. Baby lotion-$9.99(vs $5 in old packaging)-lots of containers on the shelf, cleansing gel $9.99 (some containers) cold cleansing gel $8.50 (might be the only one). No sign of baby wipes or the one bottle of facial product from spring 2022.
Did not check date on the pods for Van Houtte or Tim Hortons ($3 for 10pods of hot chocolate) but there's a lot of them on the power wall.
Little bit of clothing-one Leone packable puffer jacket on display, and a few sleeveless vests in the box. Two rough packages of Wonderbra product, random underwear in open boxes. A small rack of white dresses with colourful fringe on cap sleeves for little girls (likely 18mon to age 5 sizing) and square necklines-summer dresses for next year?
A small greeting card section remains (pared back from last years buildout to two displays of cards). Some ThinkVision cardboard boxes (Lenovo computer product) were at the front of the store. Random candies and cookies in the checkout aisle ie. $1 Peek Frean fruit creme cookies (did not check expiry dates).
When I got home, I decided to make a cup of chai latte. Hmm, the aroma does not travel far from the mug and actually it smells more like vanilla caramel candies with chai spices. I'll make do with this Timothy's supply of pods but Twinings has the better tasting and smelling chai latte!"This is the Way." The Mandalorian

@lilo0003 , OH MY GOSH, I think I would have been the same do I laugh or do I cry.
@Ciel21 , Have you tried using Vinegar to clean the washing machine. I also refuse to buy the afresh packages as we have always just used vinegar and never had an issue. I have a front load so I put about a cup of vinegar in the detergent dispenser and let it run a cycle.2022 is going to be my year, the year I find organization in my life and the year I focus on myself,

Good Morning Everyone,
No idea what was up yesterday, by the time I went to bed, I was feeling horrible.
Good news, I feel much better this morning but I did sleep in. My alarm went off, I turned off my fan and was listening to the rain fall and fell back asleep.
Last night we had Instant Pot Dump Alfredo and added Chicken, Mushroom & Broccoli with Cheesy Garlic Naan. I bought Naan for the dip I was going to make for Thanksgiving but since I did not go, we now have a Costco package of Naan that will end up in the freezer.
Now the question is what will tonight's dinner be? Thinking maybe Chicken Caprese Spaghetti Squash Bowls or I could make Pork Chops, hmm options.
Lots to get done around the house, lots to get done for work. Will be a busy day.
Happy Wednesday2022 is going to be my year, the year I find organization in my life and the year I focus on myself,

Good day! Rainy here today.
Dropped DS off at school. Went to No Frills. Spent $51.50 (redeemed $50 in PC pts so $1.50 out of pocket) They had the BLSL chicken on for $2.99 (instead of advertised price ) so I grabbed 4 trays. Also picked up lettuce, milk, cream cheese, hamburger buns, rye bread and bottle of bleach on clearance.
Then went to Home Depot for a mat. Got home. DS called me asking me to pick him up. He was done his work and there wasn't class so everyone was leaving.
Gave the fridge a clean out. We have lots of broccoli and cauliflower still so that will go with dinner (chicken on the bbq) I will make up a foil pack of potatoes, onions and spices for the others) I will clean the kitchen while I make breakfast and then the dishwasher will be run at the end of the day.
I need to put some laundry on too. Never ending!

Isn't it annoying that men always have buttoned cardigans but women don't? I have to find some type of clips to hold my Old Navy one from last year. Bought for $17 on clearance last winter and it is so warm. For a large it is like an XL. I bought linen pants this summer only to find part of the pocket sewed in error. Thankfully I was able to use the seam ripper and now the pocket is fine. I find the quality of Old Navy is going a bit downhill.
