How bored are we when we are reading each others grocery lists?

and no dildos anywhere - what's happening to you people?

I may have to find another board...

four sets of headphones on woot.com, and one 6" subway turkey and ham.
not very exciting, I know, but I'm coin-flipping on whether or not to splurge on a newly-discounted kindle, nook, or sony touch e-reader.

Paint, brushes, rollers, etc. to paint one of the rooms in the house tomorrow morning after we pick up our keys

you don't find my $10 goalie pads exciting? Hector is sat across from me right now, watching Thor play computer, in a bike helmet, roller blades, and the $10 ice hockey goalie pads. Which really need cleaning.

We just bought some braces for Mav's teeth.

We'll all be eating mashed potato for the next 6 months after paying the bill!

Iced tea, xlg, one each, to go.

I got a room at the Marriot Orlando Airport Hotel for $50! I named my price at Priceline and got it. You could have knocked me over with a feather.

My MIL is always going there. The food is cheap and inexpensive. A lot of short dated product, eg aseptic packs of soymilk that have a shelf life of 4 years with a couple of months left on them. Rancid tortilla chips. great stuff, not.

She brought a bag of TJ's wild rice and it smelled like tree bark, was pale brown, broken and dusty, I put it next to the wild rice from the coop which was dark, nearly black, very shiny, unbroken and smelled like wild rice.

You get what you pay for at Trader Joes.

I read it and had instant heartburn. The old stomach can't take what it use to.

Like a primitive ritual, I danced around inside the arcade shop. And finally spent 'my precious' bucks on some PC game DVD, yet again!:nuts:
Damn me!

Bought some gas and will be buying some alcoholic beverages later.

I tried to buy those Amazon UK books, but found my UK credit card expired last month, so now I have to hunt down the new one.

Bizarre. I've never gotten anything off/rancid from them; they are my suppliers of choice for coffee, meats, fish and grains. Their cheese section is tremendous and my husband won't eat any other cereal than theirs.

Very strange!

Maybe it's what my MIL buys, but seriously, everything I've tried from them is junk.
