Sometimes I go to a large Wal-Mart, I know people don't like that store but if I want to buy a lot, sometimes I save $60 buy going there, that adds up over a year.<br /><br />Kitty works security here so she definitely needs her own cell. Also see my explanation to Lurker.Sooo-this-is-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001864616415319712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167118023573797856.post-47798956103636352132020-02-06T12:51:22.500-05:002020-02-06T12:51:22.500-05:00Michael, "in the old days" maybe we are ...Michael, "in the old days" maybe we are becoming grumpy old men!Sooo-this-is-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001864616415319712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167118023573797856.post-9198315966999945572020-02-06T12:50:21.278-05:002020-02-06T12:50:21.278-05:00Dave, the price of things here is high now because...Dave, the price of things here is high now because of it being February.

If by pre-yellow.. you mean it's still nice and green, then remember broccoli is your friend. Simple, wash, drop in boiling water, time 4 minutes, strain, add butter, little salt, little pepper... mmmmm yummy!Sooo-this-is-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001864616415319712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167118023573797856.post-5497673014723100332020-02-06T12:35:49.336-05:002020-02-06T12:35:49.336-05:00Richard, I like to treat myself to a nice meal.

I know what you mean though, plus yes ugh... the packages are getting smaller and smaller. The one I laugh about was the last toaster I bought.

Actually they are not fussy eaters, cats can sense the protein level in food. The higher the meat content, the more they like it. One brand Kitty hates, is made of corn, wheat and rice with a little meat, unlike dogs, cats are total carnivores.Sooo-this-is-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001864616415319712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167118023573797856.post-87433808673663475682020-02-06T06:55:32.211-05:002020-02-06T06:55:32.211-05:00I go the bulk of my shopping every two weeks.

Then to Costco for some of the paper goods, cereal and other items. Finally to Aldi a reduced price grocer that has a limited selection but pretty good produce. But yeah, it gets expensive. But you gotta eat, right?<br /><br />So does Kitty have a cell phone or is she using the land line?
