Last Thing You Bought?

I forgot about the temperature control. I don't think this one has that which is probably why it's only $19.99.

It's on the same page as those, but it's more streamlined, color changing, and now costs $39.
 
^ I bought a new kettle yesterday, it wasn't as nice as that one, just plain and white.:D

I finally got around to buying a house plant! I bought an Areca palm as they are supposed to be non-toxic to pets.:) We also bought some boring DIY stuff like new door handles.

What else did I buy this week? Three new books, food and flea treatment for my animals, groceries and I made a donation to Amnesty.

I was actually planning to stop at Subway after Walgreens and get something there, but I got to Walgreens really late in the day and didn't want to take the time, so I grabbed a frozen dinner instead. I'll probably go to Subway this weekend.

plus tax? That would drive me nuts when I'd go to dollar tree with no change and have to pay tax
 
I bought the new Coffee Mate Natural Bliss Almond milk vanilla creamer!
I don't put anything in my coffee, but I have had specialty coffees I've liked-and I like soy creamer in my tea- anyway, it's a big name and vegan and I had to try! :)
I made instant coffee (I have for baking) and OMG I love this stuff! By itself it has a kinda toasted marshmallow taste ( I think?) It's sweet, but not too sweet, and not too vanilla and I wouldn't know it's from almonds. It made that not-really-good instant coffee taste like what ever I last got from Caribou Coffee
I'm just happy to see vegan products normalized!
They also make almond milk caramel and hazelnut flavors, and a coconut sweet creme
Can't wait to make hot cocoa!

I bought a bidet and lawn mower! the bidet came in the mail today, I didn't put it on yet so stay tuned...
the lawn mower is a ship to store. I have a regular old reel mower that doesn't want to cut all the different kinds of grass. I used it today and boy my back hurts now! I don't have much, but it's so ackward and gets hung up on little things-and then I had to rake. SO, yeah, I'm looking forward to a gas mower.

Only 6 cents for the tax, so not bad at all. :D The blueberries are 10 oz. bags and even the snack bags, while smaller, would still be cheaper if I bought the equivalent of a 7 0z. bag, for example. And I had the 6 cents, so I got all bills back for change, lol. I always anticipate tax. :D

I love Caribou Coffee. It's not around where I live, but I've had it in Minnesota when I have visited friends. I always make them take me there, lol. :D

It hasn't been around here for years! I liked it better than starbucks though, but I rarely ever get coffee out- mostly gas station coffee on road trips! Which have gotten really good now

I am very bad about buying coffee out. I'm trying to cut back, but sometimes, I am weak, lol.
 
I love the Amy's vegan mac and cheese but it is quite expensive, £3.50, the veggie one is only £2.20.
 
From http://greentree.coop/ in Mount Pleasant earlier this afternoon:
  • 1 container beautiful baby spinach -- (organic & LOCAL!)
  • 6 adorable red potatoes -- (organic & local)
  • 1 gorgeous red bell pepper -- (organic)
  • 1 Tandoor Chef spinach & paneer frozen naan pizza
  • 1 package creamy original Chao VEGAN cheese slices
  • 1 loaf Stone House whole grain sourdough Asiago cheese bread (for Jerry) -- (local)
  • .4LB bulk nutritional yeast
  • .79LB bulk unsalted peanuts
  • 1.06LB bulk green lentils (organic)
The bottom of my receipt said 35% of my purchased items came from local sources (within 100 miles)!! :up:

I was still trying to locate fake wasps nests.... When I checked last, it was a Sunday & couldn't call Unclaimed Freight (Ace Hardware) 'cuz they were closed... but if THEY don't have what you're lookin' for, NO ONE does. ;) I called a couple hours ago, spoke to a super-friendly fellow named Ramiro, & he said they had WASPINATORS!! :weird: He also said he'd sell 'em to me for a couple bucks.

So while my sauce was on low, I zipped the few blocks on over there & bought three at only 99 cents apiece! :D They're not nearly as attractive as the paper lantern style, but if they work & they're THAT cheap, who the hell cars?!? LMAO :p
