@Ciel21 My awesome score of the weekend was a like new winter coat on the freebie site. It had the two way zip which I love, and a hood. I had started looking for something as my coat is too snug so I am wearing an old one that has seen better days. I did not see a lot in Joe Fresh, or at ,east not something that seemed warm enough.

Off to see a dental specialist at 10.30 $175 just for the consultation .Lets hope my problem i have been dealing with for a few years now has an answer to it .

I may drop into giant tiger as its in the same plaza and get cottonelle for 4.99(only when you are joined to their club program) as thats the cheapest i have seen it in awhile.

Then home as it will be humidex of 29 today one last day of summer weather here .lol

Good Morning Everyone,
It was a chill on the couch kind of day yesterday. Spent most of the day curled up in my blanket watching ER on Prime.

I did get dinner made, I have now used up all of the old mushrooms and the leftover mashed potatoes. We have used up most of the randomness n the fridge now, just have a little bit of rice I need to find a use for.

I started to edit some videos yesterday, trying to get back into my old groove. I have to admit right now work is just so overwhelming that it is hard to get much done during the week outside of work. But I know me and I need to shift my focus or else work will take over.

Lots to get done today, already marked a few things off the work to-do-list, start on a couple house things. Still need to figure out dinner, not sure on that one yet. I was going to make Ground Chicken Sweet Potato Chili but not feeling that now. We will see how I feel as the day goes on.

Have a great Monday everyone.

Morning! Nice sunny start to the day!

I started work early and will shut down accordingly and head to Costco. My coffee is on sale starting today

I guess the casino is dead. They decided now they will have promos and offered an up to $500 free slot play. You have to go to put your card in the machine and see what you get and use it same day. Maybe a free dinner tonight. And bring a free meal home for the kids.

Hello people of this thread! Another one of those supposed to be fall yet summer like weather days. Bonus I did smell the fall fragrance of rotting leaves, thanks to the rain last night!
IMO the latest incarnation of roll up the rim leaves much to be desired.As although everyone wins, 5 tim points seems to be the least which is squat(I believe last time it was 10 which is doubly better than squat).
From reading the thread it would appear that a sharp eye,good timing and unadvertised items all in one are the best! Take a bow!
I was all happy that I had a $1.00 coupon for Bold N Bake crackers @ $2.00 this week at No Frills. I was pleased as punch when I found them on the shelf for $1.25! Tried them at home and didn't like them but hey only out 25 cents! I remember when you could get a bag of chips for 10 cents! and Halloween candy wasn't so minuscule but I digress.
Took my cat out for fresh air and sun, then managed to whack my foot into the stairs which jolted my framework. Plan for the rest of the week is to recover from that.Hopefully sooner than later!
Keep your woolies close as the temps are gonna drop.
Blessings to you and yours!

@Skippy Can you tell my age when I tell you that the single serve Hostess chips at convenience stores used to be 25 cents then 35 cents? I was in sixth grade for the 35 cents bags to be the norm (our class was selling the chips to younger grades as we were the lunch monitors while teachers went to lounge for their mealtime)?

25 cents is an incentive to sample a product!

@Ciel21 : It is my father aunt when we had dinner at her home that she said to us ,and venting how pratical it was to have her vaccine passport laminated in wallet size.So we did the same and left a small tip in the bucket for the job.Yes,I look forward to a next book sale next year,I will try to know the informations before the date to know what book and author I would like to add to my collection!!!

[cath007]
