Last Thing You Bought?

I went to Walgreens yesterday. Didn't get anything really exciting, LOL. I got my two Synthroid refills, some Ziploc freezer bags, both quart and gallon sizes, some toilet paper, pumpkin seeds, Way Better Multigrain tortilla chips, Lysol disinfectant wipes, and cat litter.

The Way Better Multigrain Tortilla Chips. For some reason while they have this brand in Whole Foods, they don't have this particular flavor. I've only found it in Walgreens. (So far.)image.jpeg

They're vegan.

Amy's no cheese veggie pizza with added toppings from my son, turning it into a yummy black bean cuban spiced pizza. For breakfast, yes, no judging lol
My mom still loves eating cold pizza for breakfast. :D

So I went to get cat food at the grocery store and hit the sale jackpot for veggie foods, to wit:
Daiya cheddar and pepper jack shreds, $1 off each package
2 blocks of organic tofu, $.50 off each block
Gardein fishless files, homestyle beefless tips and 7-grain chik'n tenders, all were at least $1 off
And the use-by dates were reasonable.

I also bought three yellow onions, one shallot and one red onion, along with the cat food. :)

I bought some more groceries. £52.

After taking a break from Swagbucks, I'm back on the site earning SB, although it's only a few at a time. This time I'm going for the long haul; either 10,000 SB to earn a $100 Amazon GC or 25,000 SB to earn a $250 Amazon gift card. Earning the 5,000 took me about a year, so I don't expect to reach either goal any time soon. Wish me luck!

I just did a search to see if anyone on here was on SB.:D I joined the other day and I tried to do some surveys and they kept saying I was unsuitable for them!

After trying unsuccessfully for MONTHS to do those damn surveys and wasting my time when I'm told I'm not eligible, I finally gave up. I don't bother with the surveys anymore. The best ways to earn SB are using the search engine (which uses Yahoo and IMO isn't as good as Google) and watching videos. You can also shop at online stores accessed through the Swagbucks website and earn SB on purchases.

Edited to add: I just checked to see when I posted that comment about Swagbucks and it was in July 2014. I'm now up to 14,879 SB; it took me a year and a half to get there. I'm aiming for 25,000 SB so it'll be a while longer before I can get that Amazon gift card.

Blah I'm just eight fuel points away from getting 20 cents off per gallon at the Shell gas station. At least I have until the end of February to use them, so I can add to my fuel points before they expire.

I thought it seemed quite confusing when I first used it but I know some people really like SB so I
I will have to try that then.:)
 
I bought two 6-cube organizers for my yarn/craft materials in my ongoing desire to declutter and rework my living space. I have to get the cloth drawers that go with them, though, as the store had only two that fit my cubes.

I got drawers to fill eight of the 12 cubes. I'm hoping to find a few more colors I like. So far, I got beige, pink and a dark blue. I think they will look pretty together. I might get green or maybe a light blue. Bonus: They were on sale. :)

A fleece (it's too soft to be true) infinity scarf on sale with a 80 % discount = € 3.

I put it on this morning when I took Shyva out for her morning piddle. It feels like you have central heating around you neck. I'm delighted with my find as I'm always trying to find ways to keep warm during the cold Winter months.

That looks divine! My neck is always my coldest part, feels the drafts.
 
I went to a health food store looking for a natural remedy for headaches until I figure out what is truly causing mine. I didn't find anything suitable, but I came out with a nice sprouting jar/mesh lid for only $5! And it is a good size too! I had been looking for one for a while as I am tired of cutting cheesecloth and rubberbanding it to the top of a jar. I love to sprout and ferment things so this was a nice find.

I absolutely love hats. Especially the typo of 'Dr Zhivago' ones or berets. They looks so glamorous.
I don't think I can pull off the hat look although I love them. French and Englishwomen always look so good in hats, but I feel like I'm too short and look ridiculous. I do wear sunhats on the beach sometimes.

I'm sure that you would look fabulous. I think that many people feel self conscious when wearing hats.
 
I bet there is a style that would suit just about anyone. I don't think I look good in beanies or baseball cap types of hats. I need some kind moderate size rim. I like sun hats with bigger rims for the beach.
