What Did You Buy Today? - Page 305

GeorgiaMa'am · 02-24-2025, 05:24 AM

A pack with seven pairs of reading glasses. Usually I keep a pair in each room, but I have lost some and broken some until finally I am down to one pair that I carry from room to room. It will be great to have extras again.

Before we got inundated with tornado warnings, hurricane type winds and a fuckton of rain (right after last week’s snow storm

), my brake lights (stop lamps, in the tail light sector of my car) decided to stop working, so today, for a small price, I took my car to the mechanic and they got it all sorted out (fixed). My car has more secrets than ever. The previous owners from California rolled this car, then fixed it up as if nothing like that ever happened, yet each year that goes by, I have to fix whatever really happened to this car.

My car is super cute, gets fabulous gas mileage (I only burn about $10 worth of Premium gas each week), but my car is full of secrets. But my mechanic is a fantastic detective. He shows me all its secrets each time it needs my mechanic to fix whatever goes haywire.

$28 bucks for bulbs and time to chase down another “secret.”

"laughing"

It was a filter kind of day.
Filters for refrigerator. I really love the fact I can get both water and ice out of the door.

Filters for the cat fountain.

Nothing else. Not that exciting...still "laughing"

GeorgiaMa'am · 02-27-2025, 10:53 AM

Inexpensive, colorful tea towels to roll up dog treats in and tie in knots for the dog to play with

Kätzchen · 03-19-2025, 11:19 AM

1) A Chala vegan crossbody handbag with a new wallet with RFID (protective lining to keep your debit/credit card credentials from being stolen by bad actors). Link: https://www.chalahandbags.com/

2) a pair of new shoes (https://hike-footwear.com/)

3) a manicure with a chromed polish shade in pale pink (chromed donut)

Bèsame* · 03-28-2025, 04:39 PM

I bought a hair cut. About 3 inches was cut off and it stills hangs long on my back. ( About to my bra back)
Cat food and hairball goop for the kitty's. Maybe that will stop the awful sound of hacking up a hairball!! Lol

easygoingfemme · 03-28-2025, 04:47 PM

I bought a couple of new sweaters for my foster dog and a new toy and a new collar. His mom was supposed to come get him today but she was a no-show so... figuring out next steps.

Aldi’s Breakfast Best Burritos.

Haven’t tried one yet but have heard good things.

Speaking of Girl Scout cookies, I was in Aldi's a couple weeks ago and asked a store worker if some cookies were good (see image below). A couple shoppers turned to see what I had and everyone said they're better than the Girl Scout cookies. Ion't know about the Girl Scout cookies but I really like these (Benton's Peanut Butter Fudge Cookies).

I don't know if I'd say "better than", but I'd definitely go as far as "as good as". Benton's PB Fudge cookies have a big thumbs up in my house.

We also like the butter flavor Clancy's Puffed Corn from Aldi's. (Brittany gives them 4 paws up!)

GeorgiaMa'am · 04-04-2025, 06:58 PM

I bought a pack of 10 pair of underwear today. They were on end-of-season clearance for $20! (Usually $70.) And underwear is one of the things that's supposed to go up drastically with the new tariffs. So I got a great deal.

I also bought a biscuit.

cinnamongrrl · 04-05-2025, 07:55 AM

Haven’t yet, but on my way home I shall get…

Groceries at Trader Joe’s. I need some quick meals to make on workdays. And right now I’m working 7 days a week. So quick meals to make on LATE workdays.

I’m also ordering the dogs food through Chewy

And I have some pertinents in my Amazon cart. Most importantly, one of those wall racks that hold brooms and mops and such. I can’t stand the clutter any more!

Bèsame* · 04-05-2025, 05:45 PM

I ordered 4 cotton/linen sundresses. I don't plan on keeping all of them. Hmmm, but you really don't know for sure. 😎

Spices to bake a rye bread this weekend
Vanilla(it's going up 47%)

Thanks for the heads up on vanilla. I will definitely stock up. (Although the last time I did that, my roommate ate it all on ice cream. She's gone now - the vanilla was only one of many reasons.)

* * *

I stocked up on coffee.

easygoingfemme · 04-09-2025, 05:08 PM

A little couch for my back porch that folds out to be a bed so I can sleep out on the porch

GeorgiaMa'am · 04-09-2025, 09:21 PM

Prescriptions, which I was really concerned about the cost - I lost my prescription insurance when I got Medicare. I did sign up for it as soon as I could, but it doesn't start until May 1, and now I have a deductible. Fortunately, I used GoodRx today, and it saved me a bundle. I'm saving my receipts; I might be able to itemize my taxes next year.

Kätzchen · 04-11-2025, 01:51 PM

Because of the harrowing times we faced five years ago during Covid 19, I was smart enough to foresee T——p’s toxic grip on our nation of white nationalist haters, so I bought enough cleaning products and toilet paper to last at least a decade (until I die, I suppose).

I don’t need to buy anything made by a bazzillionare person or their business organization.

I plan to buy all my veggies from local produce growers and I’ve got enough sundry goods (flours, leavening agents) to fix (bake) my own ‘bread’.

The only thing I worry about is finding clean water. 💦

Also, I’m not buying any decision made by current members of the GOP or the US Supreme Court. I hope these people feel the heat from members of our US society who don’t buy their BS either. May you all experience the same hate driven cruelty as your instant karma soon.
