Do you shop for clothing bargains?
Comments (16)Stinky, I'm not glamorous by any means, I wish I were. But when I try, I kinda clean up okay. This is a pic just before our daughter's wedding ceremony wearing the MOB outfit. (I wish I had been standing straighter instead of slouching.) Listen, for those of you who are shopping online, I don't know if you've heard of ebates.com. Registration is free. Before you shop online go to the main ebates page and look up the store name. If the store is a participant, you'll be directed to the store website. Shop just as you normally would have and you'll accumulate some % points that translate to cash back. I get a check regularly...not that much, but it's free money I wouldn't have gotten otherwise. You might want to check it out. In this economy, every little bit helps....See MoreWhere do you like to shop on line that is unique?
Comments (21)I like overstock.com they have a great shipping price and a lot of stuff. I like Truly Texan it has several Texan companies and artist all linked there in one place. Truly Texan WE have done a lot of smoked meats gifts between family and a couple of the places we like are Farm Pac New Branfels Smokehouse Oakridge Smokehouse Gifts I get their catalogs and just drool over all the wonderful stuff they have in there. Everything we have ever ordered was great. I ordered more from that last one oak ridge. for Cajun I go with this place, in fact I have some of their food in my freezer right now. It is all Good La Boucherie they have a store front here near my house! I love to give and also receive unique cookbooks especially ones from small towns, church cookbooks, jr league, clubs etc. I have found a lot of those at Cracker Barrel. this right here is one of my very fave ones, I have given it as a gift so many times and everyone thanks me many times for it. I am surprised it is still available I got it long long ago. It is by the Jr League of Lake Charles, LA. Pirate's Pantry: Treasured Recipes of Southwest Louisiana I also have most of those others shown on that Amazon page. The river road series and the best of the best ones are very good. a couple of other online stores I have used are RedEnvelope, DesignToscano, and Maggies Pharm, I have ordered from Maggie for so many years. I used to go to the store when I lived in Memphis, was so glad when she went online. Amazing stuff. My fave is the china musk and china rain Body Silk. Maggie's Pharm...See MoreTo go with the shopping service thread how frequently do you shop
Comments (28)I get my meats and poultry from a local farm or Butcher Box. For veggies and fruit I use a local CSA and Misfit Market. Dried goods, pasta, dairy and breads I buy at the local market. I buy seafood at the local fish monger. For paper goods, cleaner and laundry detergent I use warehouse store delivery. I stop by the local market for items I need during the week. I feed 5 adults and one child every week and my grocery costs run $350-$450 a week. Before the COVID lockdown, I went to a large supermarket every week, shopped every 6 weeks at a warehouse store and stopped by the local market for fill in items I needed during the week. My grocery costs ran $200-$250 week. The majority of our diet is organic and local grass fed/pasture raised items and wild caught seafood so its expensive. We aren't big on desserts except DH, DD and DS are addicted to Oreos. I hate them; to me they test like a pile of chemicals. The 6 of us used to dine out at a local pub once a week but have cut back to once every 2 weeks due to cost. We seldom have take-out so I cook 6-7 nights a week....See MoreHow do you separate your clothes when you do laundry?
Comments (150)@Nancy in Mich - it's pretty hot here in Israel, and though the city I live in isn't humid (Jerusalem), other cities are pretty humid. I don't leave my washer door open, since our laundry room is so small that we'd have trouble opening up the door to the room if we did that. Sorry about your husband though - not sure I know how to convince him to ignore the tags :). @dadoes - I forgot about our washers heating up the water on their own. I will say that clothing gets a LOT cleaner with a European machine. When we first came here, I was astounded by how white my whites get. When my in-laws come they're always shocked by how clean my father-in-laws dress shirts get. They're all-cotton, fairly expensive shirts, and they come out looking brand-new. I'm not sure why there's a push for washing in cold water either. Our machines are very efficient - electricity costs more here, so they have to be. Honestly I can't even imagine washing towels and sheets in cold water. It feels so unsanitary. Maybe they're pushing it because washing in cold water doesn't get your clothes as clean... which means you have to buy new clothing/bedding earlier than you'd normally need to....See Morecyn427 (z. 7, N.
