Shopping--What did you buy?

[Marie Miller]

I got my truck back after a neighbor borrowed it for just a few school and medical things with the kids since June 24. She was miffed when I told her it spends nights in a garage. Literally across the street. Tuesday night - son has foot ball at 6:00 tomorrow. You knew that at 8:00? I had to decline as we had two medical appointments at 7:00. Not happy. My truck smelled like a HS limo and is going to the body shop for a dent in the left front fender. Thank you for at least four days a week. It had 3/4 and came back with 1/4.
Lesson learned!

I've got a long list of refrigerated stuff to buy since we had a power outage, so I've been on Walmart's website getting the Aisle# for things I don't buy that often and am unsure of the location. As long as I was on the site, I checked to see if they stock a gasoline stabilizer I use for my rarely-driven truck. Apparently at some point (probably when I bought tires) I put my truck information in my Profile. When the Product Page for the stabilizer came up, I got this message:

Apparently, this fuel additive won't fit my truck. That sucks.

Since I have not been motivated to do yard work, I did the next best thing...I bought a new set of hand pruners as a substitute for actually pruning. Rather than go to Lowes, I went into town to the local ACE hardware to buy something of higher quality. They had a deal going where you buy one of their branded 5 gallon buckets for $5, the money goes to charity, and anything that "fits in the bucket" is 20% off. So I got a bucket, the hand pruners, and a grass trimmer.

I got to the cash register and said "It kinda fits in the bucket." The girl said "Today it does."

I love my local merchants.

Does that work like a scythe?
