Last Thing You Bought?

I was just at a local discount store, which had just recently started to carry Beyond Burgers, and the whole line of Follow Your Heart cheezes! Today they added------The sausage! :welcome:
I've really been wanting to try those sausages! They had both Italian and brats, I got brats. They were $6.99 compared to like $8.99 at Whole Foods
I just ate an excessive amount of Five Guys fries so maybe tomorrow:blush:
...and the woman in front of me had a pack! I also got FYH gouda- my son loves it, I kinda wish I'd have gotten the pepperjack

I went to CVS Pharmacy and Vons supermarket this morning.

At CVS, I bought:

Two cans of chocolate covered almonds
A package of 24-hour Sudafed for seasonal sniffles
Picked up my prescription for Omeprazole, which was completely free thanks to Obamacare. :dance:

At Vons I bought:

One 6-pack of Hansen’s Diet Tangerine Lime soda, store coupon
Two bottles of water
1 jar of Mezzetta Italian olives, store coupon
1 jar of Mezzetta pickled vegetables
(I really wanted a jar of pickles, but I couldn’t find the kind I wanted, whole kosher dills without any dyes or preservatives added, so I got the olives and pickled vegetables instead. Trader Joe’s has the kind of pickles I like.)
1 bag Mission tortilla strips
1 bag Rold Gold Tiny Twists pretzels
2 bottles of Diet Dr Pepper
Two containers of cut fresh mango
3-lb bag of Cuties mandarin oranges
Bag of Gala apples
Three Caprese salads
1 package of Tribe Mediterranean-style hummus. The last time I went to Vons I got O Organics plain hummus, but I thought it was too bland. Today I looked for Olive hummus, but I didn’t see any. So I got the Mediterranean style instead, which my family likes. They buy it for every family get-together.

Naturally I always forget something whenever I shop for food. Today it was a four-pack of Pacific brand almond milk. I forgot to add it to my list, ergo I forgot to look for it. *slaps head*

A stainless steel slotted spoon and a plastic spatula. My old spatula broke, and I'd been without a slotted spoon for some time. :D

I only had bananas, apples and tangerines in my fruit bowl so I went and bought nectarines and a honey pomelo.

I also got a cucumber, a bottle of rose water and some cans of cider.:cool:

Petrol & groceries from Carrefour's. I also bought a nice bottle of Cote du Rhone to take to my friends this afternoon. We will enjoy a glass ( or two:p) in her garden as the weather is beautiful.

Rose water smells gorgeous. I usually use it as a toner on my face before I put on moisturiser.:)

It was an impulse purchase as I was actually looking in the aisle for salsa. Couldn't find it!

Trader Joes has a rose moisturizer. I don't know if I looked to see if vegan, they had a trial one out. It really smelled nice and felt nice though.

Ah!:argh: I've just remembered that i need to buy a jar of B12 methylcobalamin supplement as soon as i can, as very few pills left. But if i'm lucky, i'll get my wages only on Monday. And i prefer to go for B12 on weekends, as it's far from my work, and it's not convenient to go there before work. OTOH, it can wait until the next weekend. What can't wait for too long, - is amla powder (exported from India) for me and mom. I'm now looking for the other shops, as i'm fed up with that exact shop where i'd bought amla for the first time. They poisoned me with their burning stinky sticks.:yuck: Btw, @Amy SF , you would be surprised, but the brand of B12 that i buy ("MRM"), has its main office in California, Oceanside, Vista Pacific drive. (I looked it up on the navigator, and it's veeeery far from where you live now, so, it's probably no use, asking you if you have been to that town, lol). It's a wonder that despite of embargo, at least some products from the US remained on our market. Btw, not long ago, i saw some American supplements in an ordinary drug store, which was unthinkable a couple years ago, plus i saw pickled jalapeños, manufactured in the US (there was not a single russian word on the jar). But these are the exceptions, and everything is so very sad, if to think. :pout: Sorry for the vent.:D

Some leopard print sandals :smitten:
One black & one grey stretchy jersey midi dress (in my usual size, so I can wear them after! Don't like 'wasting' money on maternity clothes tbh.)
Maternity leggings
Maternity tights (both of these essential & cheap so it's ok :D)
Tropic cleanser

I bought a blazer, a dress and a shirt from a charity shop.:) The blazer doesn't fit me so that can be donated again.

I also bought some cleanser and facial scrub from Superdrug.

My new diary arrived in the post as well, I did have one but I wrote the name and address of the person that has ****** me off in there.

I didn't want to keep seeing their name so I threw that diary in the bin.:ignore:

I’ve been to Oceanside! You’re right, it is far, so I’ve only been there once, back in the 1980’s, I think. My aunt and uncle had moved to a retirement community there, and we went down to visit them. Unfortunately they weren’t there very long, because my aunt passed away from cancer soon after they moved there, and my uncle was subsequently moved into assisted living. And I only saw part of the retirement community, I didn’t really see the city itself. But what I did see was very nice.
 
Last thing I bought: This morning I ordered the Patagonia Retro Pile Fleece Vest, “Nomad Green” from REI. Super expensive, although it was on sale and I did apply a 20% off coupon, but I love Patagonia’s ethics (and REI’s ethics) and I wanted to support both companies. I wear a lot of green.

Sorry about your aunt.:hug:
...It has to be so beautiful at the ocean shore and in the towns close to the shore! I've never seen any ocean, i only saw the Black sea, and i will love it for the rest of my life. I also saw Ladoga lake which is almost a sea. We even went to Valaam island on ships. I have to say, Ladoga feels like a real sea! You would love Karelia region if you saw Ladoga, Onega, or any other gigantic lake there.:flirt: :smitten:
 
A $25 Barnes and Noble gift card for my sister’s birthday on Sunday and a couple of Star Wars toys for my great-nephews. The older one will be 6 next week, and I’m giving his brother an identical toy so they can play Star Wars together. :p The younger one is going to be 4 in June, so I’m calling it a very early birthday present. :p There’s going to be a big joint birthday party for both boys sometime next month and I have a special gift for both of them that I’m saving for then. I’m going to my nephew’s house tonight for dinner, and the invitation didn’t come until last night, so I rushed out today and got my hair done at Fantastic Sams, color and cut (I was originally planning to go on Monday), and then did some shopping at Rite Aid drugstore. I also bought some prunes for myself. I’m old now. :p

Before visiting the drugstore, I had lunch at Subway: A 6-inch Veggie Delite sub, no cheese, avocado added, a bag of original Sun Chips, and a bottle of water.
