What Did You Buy Today?

[Stone-Butch]

Drop around a bud is always welcome.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

- alcohol prep pads
- Olay Regenerist serum

[Orema]

Another air fryer.

I promised not to get another one and did so anyway.

Got it from Amazon with a free return so at least I can return it if I want to.

Today I will be buying a haircut. First chance since the pandemic hit. Fortunately with the quarantine in effect I don't really have to go out and show my scary self much. It is a little annoying though that the kids are watching me like a hawk out of concern for my health. After all if if AARP wants me then I must old enough for them to know for a fact, I am teetering on the absolute very edge of death right?

[VintageFemme]

Two small flowering plants and one large flowering shrub, for my patio. Oh, and a little baby cactus garden pot.

Kahlua french vanilla coffee, pizzelles, organic ayurvedic infusions tea.

{happy kinda day}

[GeorgiaMa'am]

Over $100 worth of pens, which is only 3 boxes, because my boss must have _the_most_ expensive possible pens which come in a 12-pack. (Yes, there are more expensive pens that come individually. Thank goodness she doesn't ask me to order those.)

[easygoingfemme]

The other day, at discount retail grocery store, I saw that Campbells Soup has small cans of what they call, Cream of Cauliflower soup? I bought two small cans and used one of them today, while cooking up a big batch of pasta and veggies, so I can have a bowl of high-protein salad for lunch or dinner, this coming week.

I don't like it. It looks nothing like cauliflower. But you can see smashed to bits pieces of cauliflower in the soup can. Worse, it is orange colored. Not good.

So I didn't use it and won't be using the other un-used can of soup I bought.

Luckily, I have a giant head of cauliflower in the fridge and can steam half of the head and mash it down and add a bit of coconut flour and coconut cream to it in order to make my own Cauliflower soup base. It takes time to do it, but I'd rather do it than use the soup I bought in the Campbells Soup can.

YUCK. Good call on using real cauliflower.

[Stone-Butch]

My usual steak and fish plus lots of breads and buns, cheese croissants. Blueberries, strawberries (my first this year), watermelon and kiwi. Fresh broccoli and spinach, frozen peas and green beans (keeps them fresh). Creme and milk.

In this box:

1932 Night After Night -- George Raft, Constance Cummings [Paramount]
1933 She Done Him Wrong - CONDEMNED -- Cary Grant, Owen Moore [Paramount]
1933 I'm No Angel - CONDEMNED -- Cary Grant, Gregory Ratoff, Edward Arnold [Paramount]
1934 Belle of the Nineties - CONDEMNED -- Roger Pryor, Johnny Mack Brown [Paramount]
1935 Goin' to Town -- Paul Cavanagh, Gilbert Emery [Paramount]
1936 Klondike Annie -- Victor McLaglen, directed by Raoul Walsh [Paramount]
1936 Go West, Young Man -- Warren William, Randolph Scott [Paramount]
1937 Every Day's a Holiday -- Edmund Lowe, Charles Butterworth [Paramount]
1940 My Little Chickadee -- W.C. Fields, Joseph Calleia, Margaret Hamilton [Universal]


The three films from 1933 and 1934 were given the dreaded "C" rating: CONDEMNED by the Legion of Decency during it's first two years of operation.

1932's 'Night after Night' likely would have received a Condemned rating, but it was released a year before the Legion was formed and was one of the reasons why the Legion was formed.

Roman Catholics were forbidden to see these films.

All four are presented in their original uncut form.

'Night after Night' was a George Raft gangster movie.

Mae plays one of his old girlfriends, a supporting part - This is the only time she did not receive top billing.

And it's the only time that Mae did not receive a writing credit, even though she wrote the best line in the film - "Goodness had nothing to do with it."

Well, all those fruits and veggies are my fav summer treats!

I shopped my groceries as usual and I heard people talking about a nice lamp that would help you relax, clean the air or something so I went to google (my middle name) and checked it out.
Apparently like so many other things these days there has been a huge recall all over different countries from these salt lamps catching fire from the cords (wrong ones) and also making some dogs and cats sick and cats even dying from licking he salt. Many of these were not cheap lamps just recalled after all the mishaps. I did not go into brands but apparently you can get a fire regardless. This is not to say ALL salt lamps are a problem just buyer beware and check where you are getting it from. Many have wooden bases and from what is said the sweat from the lamp rots the wood with the salt so you have got to get one with a marble base if you don't want the problem. Anyway I am glad I looked before I shopped. I don't want any lamp that bad.

[Gemme]

Well, for no good reason other than I had a hankerin' for it, I picked up a pizza. It was on sale too!

Because it was a one of a kind, she took the link down from her shop but here is the image and here is the link to her shop which has some other gorgeous pieces: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheHiveBazaar I resized the picture as it was ginormous but it lost a lot of detail when I did. The bow is beautiful and satiny and the skirt has tiny tight pleats, it's just so very pretty. If I were younger and braver which you are anyhow when you're younger, I would totally wear this as a dress w/ tights and ankle boots.

Drinking water.

There was an alert this morning from the police department and city hall telling my city not to drink the water. An amoeba that eats the brain was detected. Restaurants were told not to open. I didn't know how long it was going to last.
It was lifted a few hours later.

[Gemme]

I got the fur babies some wet food, some hygiene products for myself, some cleaning supplies and some groceries.

I did buy a few groceries, but I also needed to buy a cordless drill: So I can rectify a drill-job from last year, when my sil's husband put up the curtain rod in the front window of my studio.

I got a good deal on it, at Lowes. Black & Decker, cordless drill, for small home projects. Plus, bonus!, it came with a 2-year warranty, which only cost an extra $6 bucks. All, for under $30 bucks. :cheer:

The drill came with drill bits, an assortment of screws and dry-wall thingy's, so you can screw in a screw into dry-wall materials. Which is exactly what I need to do.

Apparently, I just bought 3 pieces of artwork. Free shipping guarantees that they will come, one a week, for three weeks.

Today, Dear Wife and I replaced our king sized Simmons Beautyrest bed ( mattress only, as we have a king platform bed, so no box spring) with a top of the line king sized deluxe genuine Sleep Number bed system. This thing has 2 individual separately controlled split sleeping zones, heated foot zones and remote controlled head and foot elevation adjustments. It has to be, by far, the most comfortable bed that I have ever, EVER placed my old painful body on. It will be delivered and set up in approximately 3 weeks, a few days after we return from our Fall vacation. We can hardly wait!!!!!

We then drove over to the neighborhood Lowes store and bought a new deluxe dishwasher. Our old one, a 2.5 y/o GE model that came with our new house, died of electrical problems the other day. It had been making some rather peculiar noises in its last days, so we knew it was getting ready to circle the drain soon. Well, it did, finally, after it let out a few pitiful chirps and went forever silent thereafter. Our new one has individual bottle/tall container washing "fingers"/sprayers and even some kind of internal garbage disposal in it, along with a special 3rd top rack for utensils. This will be delivered next week, and not a second too soon, as Dear Wife and I are pretty sick and tired of having to wash our dishes by hand!!!

I almost fell asleep on the floor model bed at the Sleep Number bed store. Yeah, those really are THAT comfy and worth every cent of their price (just under 10K for the model we bought, in case some are curious/interested in what these things go for). I have such bad knees/low back issues and Dear Wife has back issues and what is called "Chiari Malformation", and this new bed is really going to help the both of us to sleep much, MUCH better. :winky:

Today I pulled the trigger on something I’ve been coveting for a long time, a “Butter Pat“ cast iron skillet. I have my grandmothers old school smooth finish cast iron from I don’t even know when in a 12 inch which I love to death and use frequently. I have wanted one in a smaller size for quite some time but one of the same quality of the older pans. $tupid, but I’m going for the quality.

If you enjoy it, I'd say it is a great purchase. I have a 12" and an 8", and the 8" is perfect when I want just enough cornbread for myself, or myself and one other. It's also great when I want just one or two eggs. Or when my 12" is being put to another use. Heck, cast iron is the way to go for cooking. Have you ever tried making a pineapple upside-down cake in one? It is _divine_, the way the cast iron perfectly caramelizes the pineapples.

Christmas tree! Well actually the kids bought it for me but I was there!

[Gemme]

I paid for car repairs. My rear brakes went out along with my emergency brake line and the cylinders.

That was this morning.

Tonight, I bought groceries. Blueberries, Honey Crisp apples, Halos, gourmet blend tomatoes, bananas, a European cuke, two containers of field greens, shredded carrots, baby bella mushrooms, dill pickle chips and lunch meat to be exact.

[Stone-Butch]

Lots of groceries, a few new pairs of socks, quiet gift for the little one. In our family tradition we don't "celebrate", music, dancing, parties, etc. when we have lost a loved one, same for New Years. Till NY day. Children are the exception till they are of understanding age.

Today I fired up Zelle and contacted/gifted all of mom's caregivers. I usually fly up and hand out stuffed Christmas cards, but this year everything is different. I sent out double bonuses since they have been so careful and great about the virus. I wish I could have been there this year but this felt pretty cheery! :xmascandle:

Could you let us know how you like your new Motorola phone?

Rico and I think we want to find new phones too. Maybe the type you can use as two-way radios (Nextel?).

Please and Thank you, Georgia. :tea:

Please and Thank you, Georgia. :tea:

I like it so far. I upgraded from the Motorola Turbo 2 to the Motorola one 5g uw. It has six (6!) cameras, including a wide-angle, a macro camera, and a depth camera in addition to the other cameras you might expect, and it has two flashes - a regular flash and a ring flash. I expect to become a lot better at taking pictures. It has a really fast processor. It has 128 GB of storage but only 4GB of RAM. You can also upgrade your storage to 1TB with the micro SD card tray. It has a really long battery life - I use my phone a lot, and I haven't charged it in two days, and it's still on 41%. It also comes with a turbo charger in the box - it recharges really, really fast. I appreciate that it has a headphone jack because I'm old school that way. It also has microphones at the top and bottom of the phone. I'm pretty happy with it now that I've gotten all of my content transferred over. It has a lot of great features for a mid-range phone. Here's a great review that i used to determine whether to purchase it:https://www.cnet.com/news/motorola-one-5g-review-emotional-roller-coaster-of-phone-features/

I'll be interested in hearing what you two decide to get.

Well... I haven't bought it yet.

Waiting to see if the seller will work with me on the shipping. But, this gorgeous vintage Lark Droutman NY Large 19" Round Brown Hat Box Suitcase Train Case from the 1940s. I have a large Ralph Lauren tote that looks identical. With this piece, what a beautiful 'set' it will make.

So I didn't get this particular case. The buyer never got back to me but, tonight I found a 16" just like it for half of what the previous purchase was aaaand sold. THEN I had to take my happy ass over to Etsy and found an identical RL wallet aaaand sold. And THEN over to Poshmark and found a little matching makeup bag, and yup, sold. LoL Now I'll have this wonderful set and nowhere to travel to until it's safe again. Oy!

[Kätzchen]

Since both Rico and I were without power during the latest winter-type storm, we both went grocery shopping at an independent International grocery store to replace all the food we lost. We've become relatively good at finding small business to support, as long as it is not owned by somebody who has ties to the GOP.

So that is what we did yesterday, we bought tons of groceries to split between our two households.

Today, we plan to visit our CPA to file our taxes.

Other than these two things, we're set for awhile.

I think I found Reach's Amazon buying frenzy. I got a kitty toothbrush and signed up for auto delivery of a new wet food and then I got an electric mouse trap and then a bunch of crafty stuff. Enough stuff that I got an alert from Amazon saying I went over my self-imposed limit.

Nothing today ... yet. However, yesterday I bought my sister and her fiance dinner at Moe's. If you have one in your area and have not gone- you NEED to. The food is awesome.

Today I am going to peruse some camping/fishing equipment - and also make a firm decision on a new bed.

Dog food

I read that as dog food for lunch, what the... did a double take, oh some dog food and some lunch. Now that makes sense, natural mistake. There's a story about a guy really in need of some knee pads behind that one.

My current one works fine but these are basically one use type lights. Each one lasts thousands and thousands of hours but after that, you have to toss it as there's no way to switch bulbs or change batteries or anything once it burns out. It's genius and evil at the same time.

Anyway, I've had mine for a while so I thought it pertinent that I get a back up ready to go.

[Gemme]

Have you ordered from them before?? I want to, I'm just worried about size and fit. Let me know if you like them :)

I have and they are great! I am a VIP, which is the only way to do it, so you get the discount because $80 for a pair of leggings is just stupid. I just have to remember to 'skip' any months I don't want stuff. As long as you check the sizing charts before ordering, you should be good.

The leggings have been good, especially the ones with pockets. Super smooth and handy. The sports bras are hit and miss but it could just be me. They have other stuff but I'm not buying a scrunchy from them.

I say go for it. You can always cancel if you don't want anything else.

Today, I visited a discount furniture store and left empty-handed but it's in the same plaza as Michael's and JoAnn's so I popped into each of them and left with 2 bags totaling about $55, which...for me...is VERY good.

I bought gym shoes, several blouses to add to my work wardrobe and a really great funky dress, a poncho shawl thing and a coordinating hat for my boho island girl vibe, cute file folders for my home office, new phone and a tablet because yeah... sundresses for my granddaughters and hair products because this crazy, frenzied self care started with my hair appointment this morning. Oh yeah, and I bought breakfast tacos for my hairdresser and I...lol...

I bought a small piece of furniture, a rolling cart with a surprising feature, decorative napkins, snacks, felt pads for furniture, a spice and dried veggie mix for omelets.

[homoe]

We did our big "stock-up" shopping for staples...can goods, soda, etc. etc.


More and more I'm noticing a trend that has me worried.

Items that are advertised at a certain "sale price" aren't scanning at that price at the checkout! This has happened at several chain groceries stores lately and more than just once or twice. Once you get home and notice the error, it's always a hassle to return, point out the error, etc etc. & then only to be told some lame excuse why it probably didn't scan in at the right price!

I'm not a big fan of using the self-checkout because I think it eliminates jobs for humans but I'm considering using them more and more. I can catch any error and nip it in the bud avoiding the hassle.

Oh and P.S. A Wendy's Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich. I figure if she's going to lecture me about my bad choices I might as well just ask for all the unhealthy stuff this trip that way I only get lectured once.

Shoot, forgot to tell her add cheese. Don't want to try her patience/test my luck though. If worst comes to worst I've got string cheese. I'll just pull little strips off, tear them in half to fit the bun, but hopefully she'll remember on her own.

And SO true about getting everything in one trip or even at one store these days!

When I was a kid my parents did all their grocery shopping at the rather small A&P store in town. They had a wonderful meat department, produce, bakery, can goods, frozen foods, and everything else we needed!

For thread compliancy I have not bought a thing today, in fact I haven't even been out of the house for two days!

Was so frustrated with the lousy service I received the other day when I went in for a mani/pedi. She was excessively rude and did a lousy job. I walked out without allowing her to apply the polish to my toe nails or give me a mani. I let them know I was unhappy though I paid for the pedi because I didn’t want them to call the cops on me.

I also bought some red polish and a manicuring kit. It will do for now..

Had gone off red polish for awhile but am giving it another try.

I celebrated my birthday early! I got a cut, color and style at a new salon and I think I've found 'my' place. Love my stylist! She's the owner of the salon and all the other ladies are super nice too. I chatted with just about everyone that came into the salon while I was there, including a gentleman who is a seasonal customer of mine. Small world!

Next came a trip to HomeGoods. There I purchased a one of those garden creatures that are made from distressed metal parts. I don't have a garden but it's core is a bucket and who doesn't want a multi-colored metal cat bucket?!? I got a wind up hose in it's own container for the car so I can wash it on my work property and then put it back in the trunk, like it never happened. Gotta do something about all of this pollen! My car is blue but looks yellowish green due to the pollen coating. I got a GIANT freestanding scratching post for the cats since Loki's birthday is this month too and Gracie's is next month. It's gorgeous, as far as scratching posts go. Beautiful wooden base and it's easily over 2 feet tall. Happy birthday, babies! I also got a book, napkins, artichoke hearts and snacks.

Finally, I hit up Dave's Market. I got eggplant cutlets, Korean BBQ beef tips, chicken teriyaki pot stickers, whole wheat sesame noodles, several small containers of various grain salads and a chickpea and spinach salad as well.

I also paid a bunch of bills but that's no fun.

Yesterday I bought 5 cute tops from the Goodwill that’s near Walmart. Scored them for 15 bucks. Yeah, baby!

:bow:

Good score Orema! You can not beat a good thrift store, especially the ones that under price items because they don't really know what they have. Thinking of a cashmire sweater and skirt set I bought for an old girl friend, some depression glassware and a collectible men's wool vest. They were all bought for a song and worth 4 to 10X what I paid.Yesterday I bought 5 cute tops from the Goodwill that’s near Walmart. Scored them for 15 bucks. Yeah, baby!

I’m tellin’ ya. One of my favorite purses is one I’ve had for 20+ years that I got from a thrift store. And I have a sweater that I absolutely love from the same store that was in Oceanside on Oceanside Blvd!

I really like this store. The people are cool and it’s a nice atmosphere. I’ll donate some things to them when I finally unpack my kitchen boxes.

Oceanside as is Oceanside, Cali? If so then it is a small world.

I didn't purchase much, but I did find some greeting cards while in Port Townsend!

I met one of My friends at B&N so - I bought her a coffee and Myself as well.

Also, when you go to the coffee bar area they always seem to put display right there to entice you to buy of course - and it always seems to be a book I have not read. So, I bought it - the title is The Sun Is Also A Star by Nicola Yoon. It kind of looks like a "Summer book read".

Then I went to Staples - Staples is just .. well Staples. I could spend hours in there just like I would in B&N or a flea market - you get the drift.

I bought: hanging file folders, a pack of white writing pads (not a fan of the yellow), a Portfolio, manila file folders, 2 steno pads (with white paper as well), 2 BlueSky "Notes" books, and then I found in the clearance section a small organizer (it almost looks like it is for coupons) - but it looks like you could do receipts, etc. - I got that for My sister.

I then went to the Credit Union - I did not really buy anything - but I had a good discussion with My now financial "advisor" (advisor is probably not the right word - but *shrugs*) about what retirement will look like for Me - and some planning with that. I am going back next week - and we are going to comb through My credit report - and some other budget things - also info I got from the Department of Social Security - and we will put a forecast together. We are also going to do lunch together while we work on it - so that will be cool.

At Ace Hardware, I bought tape for work and ant bait for home. Those pesky pests are back again this year. I lived here for nearly 7 years before I saw the first ant, though I know the previous tenants had a big problem with them. Given the state I found the kitchen in when I moved in, I saw why. But these are very specific ants. They only seem to be interested in my cats' food. I had fun (not the right word but what word means I enjoyed ending them but hated that I had to do it and it made me fall 10 minutes behind schedule?) getting rid of them but I knew they'd be back with reinforcements and I was right. One of the baits I got allows me to attach it to baseboards and whatnot so I won't have to weight them down since the cats think they are toys to be batted around. :cat:

At the grocery store, I got the Halos that Wally World didn't have yesterday and then wound up tossing a few extras in the cart as well, including the pizza for dinner tonight, which I've become very happy about as it turned out divine.

I also won the lottery. Wee! I got my money back for the last 3 tickets I purchased so I'm not mad at that.

Various pieces of produce, including avacado, blueberries and...

I got my usual groceries but today all our other places are opening. Not all quite yet but the people are out there in myriads of shoppers. I also checked out some shoes and bought a bean bag game for the little one for her birthday to go with her globe. Most kids are fascinated by the lightening effect going to their touch.
