What Did You Buy Today?

[starryeyes]

I bought a Starbucks mug for my babe that has white dogs on it with a big green tennis ball. We have a white German Shepherd, and it reminded me of my white Aussie named Kelpie who passed away, so it was perfect! <3

[Jesse]

$90 worth of groceries, or should I say $45 worth of groceries for $90!

[homoe]

$90 worth of groceries, or should I say $45 worth of groceries for $90!

You got that right..lol

[Chad]

Yesterday, I bought my mom a casual dress from El Mercado in San Antonio. That is a first, I hope she likes it.

[job]

Normally I wouldn't post in something like this. But, I really dig my purchases today! (Uhh, minus the Tylenol arthritis pills.) So, I bought a really nice warm quilt and the first in the series of Outlander books. Originally, went to get a few books by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, but saw Outlander and so that went out the window. Can't wait to get all comfys under my new blanket and start the series. 😃

Treats and dog food for Sadie, both grain free.

Oh and gas for the truck. I got it free because I used $20 in gift cards that AAA sent to me for an extremely minor screw-up on their part. Plus, I had already earned 10¢ off per gallon, so basically I got $20 of free gas at $1.99 per gallon. Works for me! :batman:

They sell 'ugly Christmas sweater' kits at Five Below.

You know, in case you want to win Christmas.

I personally picked up some clothes and food yesterday. I also saw a movie and had some :popcorn:.

I went Christmas shopping today and I bought a few gifts for family and friends.

The kids are throwing me a birthday party soon so I got their gifts today. I looked at gift bags but then saw that the stockings were cheaper so I got those instead. I thought it was a cute idea. Stockings instead of gift bags. :)

It all began because I needed some Clorox, so I hopped in the truck and drove to the neighborhood Family Dollar. Once I got in there I remembered that I still needed to get Miss Sadie some stuffed babies for Christmas. She already has an entire cooler (that's her toy box until we need it for camping) full of babies, but she still gets new ones to unwrap every year. $42 later...

Clorox- an unbelievable $4.00 for a gallon. That's just crazy but I refuse to buy the store brand of bleach, it's not the same strength.

A small thing of laundry soap because I need to do a load tonight. I ran out of my homemade soap and do not feel like making it tonight. - $5.35 (This is one reason I make my own)

A pack of new scouring pads for the kitchen and bathroom - $1.55 for an 8 pack

2- Awesome swivel bottle brushes for $1 each for cleaning my canning jars and some of my juicer parts.

1- role of cheap wrapping paper for Sadie's presents -$1

3- battery operated flickering candles for the 3 front house windows. -$1 each (That's the extent of my decorating. Oh wait, I did change my computer Windows background to Christmas decorations)

5- presents for Sadie. 4 stuffed and one rope toy - $1 each. Oh and a red sparkly Christmas bow collar for her too. It's actually a red sequined headband & bow for women, but it works fine for this too. - $2

2- 12 packs of Cokes that were on sale. I forget how much they were, I think 2-for-$9

A perfect sized square tin that I can fit 4 of the regular altoid sized tins into, all of which make up my fire box which holds my t various tinders and fire starting implements for camping, bugging out or what have you. -$1

A round tin of Danish style butter cookies- $2

Invisible tape- $1.65

The secret to these so called dollar stores is either stay out of them completely or stick to buying only the dollar items, which I did not do today.
:( Oh well.

[Allison W]

This morning? This chair. I'm pretty heavy and I have a tendency to shift positions a lot (from crossing legs to leaning forward to reclining to just plain slouching), so I'm hard on chairs. I'm dropping a lot of money on building a computer at the moment and am thus not ready to drop $500-$1000 or even more on a Herman Miller, Steelcase, or Humanscale with a 12-15 year warranty, so I grabbed a chair that gets "bang for your buck" awards at $415 while it was on sale for $172.05 after tax. Also I can remove the arms to make room for crossed legs.

Yesterday: I bought copies of Undertale (http://store.steampowered.com/app/391540/) for a couple of friends (on top of a third one back on the 15th). Amazing game, low price ($10 normally, $8 on sale). Perfect digital stocking stuffer.

The day before yesterday: a 650-watt EVGA GQ computer power supply (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438059) for the computer I'm planning on building. It's new enough that customer reviews aren't in yet, but the experts who actually took electrician's testing tools to the thing and disassembled it to find out the quality of the components gave it rave reviews. A good mid-wattage-range power supply can easily run $100 or so, and I scored it at a grand total of $61.50.

Back on the 16th: a 250GB Samsung solid-state drive (http://www.ncixus.com/products/?sku=104175&vpn=MZ-75E250B) on sale for eighty bucks and free shipping, also for the computer I'm planning on building. It's basically a hard drive with no mechanical parts that is insanely fast and reliable as a result: we're talking stuff like booting to desktop in five seconds, a mean time before failure measured in millions of hours, and an annualised failure rate of like half a percent, at least for this brand and series (Samsung is one of the leaders in the field).

[Blade]

4 rolls of Disney Princess Christmas wrapping paper

[Jesse]

I just bought a new battery for my laptop and a sleeve/stand for my Kindle. Those and a couple of other things I am going to buy for my DIY pickup camper are my Christmas presents to myself this year.

[cinnamongrrl]

Last night...

I was already in jammies...and my phone charger stopped working...

I had to get dressed and head to the Food Lion...which was already closed...

So I went to the gas station I passed by on the way....and proceeded to pay 14.99 for a charger. I had just bought a new charger earlier in the week....for $8...this one better last....is all I'm sayin

[Allison W]

Just yesterday, a jug of winter windshield wiper fluid for like five bucks at a convenience store, because we were already like a half an hour or so out of town when we finally figured out that our windshield wiper fluid wasn't frozen so much as it was just plain no longer for this world.

[Blaze]

Grinz... with my new fishing bag that my Beautiful Baby got me.. I emptied out the fishing and tackle part. We rode our bicycles to the gas station, got beer, and champagne. Tossed them in that bag, and rode home... no DUI NO BUI.... ONLY WORRIED to not drop bottles.... We did it baby! Now let's play ping pong :mohawk:

I bought two tickets to see Melissa Etheridge next month. Then I noticed that the Tedeschi Trucks Band is also playing in few days, so of course I had to buy a couple of those tickets as well. :D

What can I say? I'm a sucker for women who play guitar, and I've never seen Susan Tedeschi live. And, Derek Trucks is just a wee bit talented himself.

[RockOn]

Big congrats on buying new home. I thought I had found the perfect one myself. A rural medium-size nice home on 8 acres. Found out last night the acres are spread out up the road and across the highway. I cancelled my appointment to meet my realtor there at 10:00 a.m. today. It would have been a waste of time.

I am so happy for you!!!

Today I bought a large thin crust THE WORKS Hungry Howie's pizza - extra well done. Sitting here in the parking in my truck right now waiting for them to cook it.

I went to Dick's to see about a kayak for spring. They no longer do layaway...which would've been perfect since i dont need it now....and I'm not even sure where to put it yet.

Any who...

The customer service there sucks now....I had to go to the register to get help with a question I had about a certain backpacking stove fuel. He didn't know. He recommended a better outfitter that would know. Yep. I will be going there.

However,

I did buy a Sawyer purifying system. It was cheap enough and it'll get a lot of use.

I have officially begun buying my backpacking gear...I may squee a bit....lol

I also got groceries but my yogurt remains elusive. Whole foods has the brand but not the flavor I want... sigh

[Bèsame*]

[Jesse]

A package of 12 filters for the hvac unit

1/4 inch black dots

They were delivered yesterday and I've covered up all web cams at home and work—on phones, pads, computers.

[Kätzchen]

I am saving back some money to buy an new dress and some new shoes, and stockings too because I want something pretty to wear for an spring or summer evening.


It will be an miracle if I can do that because the power bill is incredibly expensive, not to mention buying groceries, paying the monthly rent and daily expense for public transportation.

[Gemme]

I bought $99 worth of stuff on amazon and it only took me 5 minutes.

:blink:

[cinnamongrrl]

It was yesterday but I'm so stinkin excited about it still..

I decided to stop by an estate sale.. I found..I don't even know what. They're. Called. Its German. I think. There are candles that make a little windmill type thing go around on top when the candle. Heat rises. There are little carved figures that go around the central base...it's. Darling...I paid $15 for it...I've seen them sold for $200... Its a Christmas type decoration

[Gemme]

Oh, a little of this and a little of that and then there was my stop at Barnes & Noble.

Geezy weezy.

That emptied my wallet pretty fast.

[Gayandgray]

Paid some monthly bills, put gas in car, picked up a few groceries.Oh and cow hooves for my dogs, they love them!

[cinnamongrrl]

A subscription to Mother Earth Living magazine for a mere $10. I can't even find it on most news stands..now it will come to me... ☺

Also got lunch at the fair..

[Canela]

A bag of ice....I made agua fresca de mango and I needed ice.

I'll try to hold off my desperate craving for some form of chips to assuage my Sunday night anxiety in order make it a spend-free weekend.

:|

[weatherboi]

A landscaping rake.

[C0LLETTE]

That's a phenomenal deal! I've seen that magazine at my local Barnes&Noble and one issue was more than what you're paying for a whole subscription.

[Nattih]

A phone charger. If I have to buy a new one before the holidays I might completely lose it.

[Gayandgray]

Groceries, dog meds, donation to the food bank, and $ in my nephew's birthday card.

[Gemme]

It was retail therapy for me today. I didn't need anything but I sure brought a lot home.

:blink:

I got a tiny vase and some faux flowers that I'll mix in to pull the yellow and blue together. It'll be cute and cheerful and I won't have to worry about watering it. I also got some bits and pieces of things and some glaze that I'm thinking of using in a current craft project.

I got a package of zentangle tiles, a mixed media book and a couple of clearance items from Barnes&Noble.

Also, I found some sale items at another craft store, along with some cotton candy.

A trip to Aldi's landed me a ceramic peeler and a mental reminder to come back for produce. Their prices are crazy good right now.

For opposite's sake, I returned some items to Wally World and donated some things to a local animal shelter. It's my way of balancing the Universe with all the stuff I've been bring home lately.

ETA: dinner. I bought dinner out tonight as well.

[Jesse]

Somehow I managed to spend $7.99 for a mother's day card for my step mom. Hallmark has gone insane and they took me with them! :seeingstars:

garbanzo (chickpeas), tahini, cumin...middle east flat bread...:wine:

[RockOn]

Some hardware at Home Depot and a MacDonald's hamburger kiddie meal. The burger was greatand I love their yogurt in.the tube but the prize sucked. No gizmo to it at all, just a soft smiley round pillow about the size of one's palm... it provides a free game online. I left it on the table with hopes a child will find it and enjoy the game.

[Bèsame*]

Going right to, do not pass go, to the store for cream! There was only a drizzle left. I'm the only one who uses it...what was I thinking?

I tried whipped cream from the can...way too sweet!

An UP2 by Jawbone... I have a Fitbit Flex, but I keep getting a rash from the band. So I'm hoping the UP2 works better. Plus it was a lot cheaper. Thank you Amazon.

I didn't actually buy anything, except maybe time, but I did pay the last of this month's bills...water and and lawn service.

Yesterday while secondhand shopping I found several yards of Yooshin black velvet fabric for less than I would expect to pay retail for one yard of modern velvet. :)

Tonight I'm online window shopping and trying to decide between disposable N-95 and P-100 respirators. It's like shopping for gravel all over again - this is so boring. :(

[grenade]

Iced tea for myself and two coworkers and chex mix.

I'm very sorry I don't recall Yooshin Black Velvet fabric from 9th Grade Home Economic class but it does sound like a good deal!

[C0LLETTE]

[QUOTE=FireSignFemme;1067282] I don't recall Yooshin Black Velvet fabric from 9th Grade Home Economic class but it does sound like a good deal!

Yooshin is just a brand/name of a company that has been making velvet fabric since I think it was the 30's. It's not expensive velvet; pure silk velvet can cost hundreds of dollars a yard. And better blends can be spendy too. This is likely just some sort of cotton/synthetic blend but it's got a nice rich color, is soft - feels very nice. It's dress velvet fabric. I'm not sure what velvet comparable to this is selling for in stores today. I just know things like panne, stretch velvet, low end crush velvet, some low end velveteen fabrics run around 5-6 dollars a yard retail and they are not anywhere near as nice as this.

Since I have about 7 and ¾ useable yards here and paid $6.98 I think it was a good deal however for someone able to buy wholesale this probably wouldn't have been as good a deal for them as it was for me. Right now modern versions of this same velvet - by buying in very great bulk, wholesalers might very well be able to get similar fabric for around the same low price per yard, I'm not sure, close though I'm thinking.

Anyhow I have no idea what I will do with this much velvet but I'm going to use some to make some satin lined, silk corded drawstring bags like some people put their tarot cards in or carry crystals, semi-precious gemstones, other trinkets, amulets around in, for my son to take up to barter fair and see what happens.

[easygoingfemme]

Heading out to pick up in a few... a corsage that my daughter ordered yesterday to give to her girlfriend when they go to the gay prom tonight... sniff!

oh, the bargain you found! I was thinking small handbags, trimming a pocket, even adding a cuff of velvet to a pair of black jeans. I love searching for older clothing that I can take apart for the fabrics! You truly found a treasure, said one fabric lover!
