I haven’t bought anything lately from a White owned business but I do care about people of color (because my sons are biracial — Black), so I support Asian owned businesses by Vietnamese and Koreans and I focus on buying specifically from Black owned businesses because until people in America fully understand how the White billionaire class never suffers the racially motivated policy that undercuts business owners or homebuyers or people of color who try to out run the goal post moving that keeps the White billionaire class in power, then America will never be successful in addressing racial policy that treats people of color so poorly.
Know your worth. Don’t give your worth away to the wrong sector of our society. |
Bought Today
A new ocellating fan on a stand.
A new dust buster. A new electric kettle. |
I bought poster board in 20 colors for a crafty project. I also bought some summery pre-mixed cocktails, just for lounging around.
|
I have been so tired lately that I slept most of today away. But I need to get some household chores done (laundry, etc), but need to get some food into my tummy… so I’m on my way out the door to spend a bit of money for dinner (teriyaki veggie plate), wash and dry my clothes, then stop by the gas station to put some gas in the car and then go across the street to buy something at the grocery store ( probably rainbow beets, more watermelon and something sweet for a late night snack ).
|
Well....I bought two different phone covers for my new phone. Rose Gold in color and I'll decide which one I like best. Also, screen cover. I'm getting used to the new layout of my phone.
Etsy...shhhhh, a cute detail for a craft project. Last night I came home from job #2, where I get to do the markdowns, two nice size ceramic pots, dry shampoo and two packages of summer paper plates. One is super cute, lemons! I don't have to do dishes as often, lol . I'm going back tonight, let's see what deals I can get! |
well tonight....a cooling pet pad $6, a big dog tug a war toy $2, 4 shirts, polos from Hilfiger, Izod and Calvin Klein, all 4 for under $20. For me, a pair of MK slides $10, what a steal!
I'm telling you it's a semi annual clearance sweep. I was making customers left and right very happy! Oh yeah, and a super cute little Hello Kitty cosmetic bag for my Lunch buddy. She had her birthday over the summer. |
I sent my niece a tin of cheese straws. She loves them. She's pregnant and is having trouble eating.
|
A lightweight vacuum that my father can use from his wheelchair. The look on his face when I gave it to him... he is not in the habit of cleaning up after himself.
|
Today, I found a cute little Ed Hardy tee at Marshall's. It was on clearance for $10 but the cashier found a second tag that I missed. $8! It's a tax free weekend here as well. Woot!

Have been shopping like a mad woman lately. E’rything from a mattress to an indoor hydrogarden but yesterday it was all about Harris/Walz.
I really wanted an old-school, convention straw-boat hat in red/white/blue, but I couldn find one at a reasonable price so I ended up with these things: https://i.postimg.cc/jwWPN0kW/IMG-0107.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/06ypkJY0/IMG-0108.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/wt4D7TF8/IMG-0109.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/94crC5h3/il-158...20927-4ucq.jpg I think this will be part of my voting-day outfit, but I may change my mind before then. Happy shopper, happy voter—that’s me. |
I bought a new to me used car! (Still haven’t found the truck I want) It’s a cute little Chevy Sonic. It’s the new Bubi mobile To transport the grandchildren Here and there and everywhere!
I also bought a pink Kamala Flag and flagpole. And a garden flag with Kamala/Walz on it and two ’La Details for the cars! |
I went on a pumpkin binge, lol 🎃 Pumpkin Fragrances from Bath & Bodywork’s. I truly love fall 🍁 |
Omg…. This has been a really busy harvest season
Welp, I bought a 10 x 16 pavilion for my garden! It is exquisite! I just had it delivered last night. I bought two dehydrators and have had them going for the past two weeks, drying up peppers of all kinds, tomatoes of all kinds, and sizes, onions, zucchinis, and of course, all my herbs. Although some are hanging to be dried. I also bought canning jars so that I could store the dried Harvest in. And I bought a really nice mandolin because I got tired of cutting tomatoes with just my hands and a knife I have frozen all kinds of corn and beets. Tomorrow I pull out my cold water bath and my pressure cooker to can., |

I haven't bought anything for me lately. I did bring home some little condiments dishes with lids. Woohoo! Not so exciting, to say the least.
So this morning, I opened up Etsy and found a Disney Halloween shirt I really want. Perhaps by the end of the day, it will be on its way to me. Now that's excitingly cute! |
We’re at the beach, but my purchases have been prosaic, cough drops, snacks at Trader Joe’s. Pete HATES grocery shopping and Trader Joe’s is worse than Stop & Shop. She should have waited in the car, really.
|
A pumpkin pie Blizzard! (yum! - It kind of ameliorated the financial pain of the following two purchases.)
A new car battery :( An overnight package |
A new pair of Brooks shoes. Best shoes to wear on concrete 40+ hours a week.
An new thermal cup/mug. Aqua with a handle!! A small pair of skeleton hands. They are covered in purple glitter. I'm going to add a hair clip on the backside, so I can wear them in my hair! |
Scored a beautiful cream linen, cotton, rayon area rug. 5x7, going in the front room. I'm excited to see how it will look.
Oh, marked way way down. $20 and I got to use my employee discount. Super deal!! |
Three new pairs of leather shoes for the fall in winter
|
Oh, I forgot something!
well, I didn’t buy her, lol I have adopted a beautiful black-and-white border collie by the name of Daisy Mae! She’s the same age as Moon and they both have arthritis. They look a lot alike because Moon Is an English Shepherd is a cousin of the border collie The striking difference though is that Daisy May is completely deaf. She’s been with us for a week and at first there was huge dog fights over me and Food. That has simmer down a lot. |
Nothing yet but thinking about buying a new phone. Had this one about 5 yrs. Course it still works, I may wait. I can't believe how expensive they are. Wanting to retire, maybe I will buy a flip phone and just get home internet instead.
|
I bought a plane ticket to California!! Going to visit my bestie. Won't hurt to revisit with the cute woman I met there last year😎
Also, a fall wreath for my door. A tiny pumpkin for my coffee table. A pumpkin spice candle in this really cool glass container. A black sweater with Sally, from the Nightmare before Xmas, on it. It's really cute, it has ribbon lace up sides. Pink and Black pepper corns to fill up my pepper grinder. The pink ones make it soon much better . |

I'm hoping for a break in the temp and humidity soon! |

I bought 30 pallets. And will be getting more as time goes on. I’ve decided to fence in my wonderful garden using post and pallets. I’m going to sand down the pallets and then whitewash them. Once they’re up, I’m gonna stretch Some form of wire fencing on the inside to keep critters out. And the fence that faces my road I’m going to stencil designs on probably flowers, etc.
I also bought an outdoor propane fueled burner so I can can outside next year. I bought some lip stain. I’ve decided I like lipstick a lot better than lipstick. |
