I checked with my battery expert, my dh, and he says use the fridge not the freezer. The freezer might cause the cells to fracture and split.

Dh has a shake flashlight. I think he likes it, but I don’t like the shaking, its silly but I think the bulb will break, but it won’t, it’s an LED. It uses a big capacitor not batteries. For 20 seconds of shaking he gets about 20 minutes out of it. He thinks it is handy. It would work better in a car in the winter than one with batteries. But it depends on how cold it gets.

I shared some coupons with a gal at work, she runs a beagle rescue.and uses the pedigree dog food for the beagles.

Lisa, you may have a new business! Those faux bricks look great! I’d like to try it on our house. I really love the colors of your dds bedroom, the curtains are pretty with the sun shining through them. Nice black lump of a cat too!

Lee sorry to hear about your grammy.

Cau, oh my oh my! Anyways, my second mother had special shoes, they come in some nice styles now so I hope all goes well in November.

Chris, thanks for the reminder, fall is here already when the gardencenters put their plants on discount! sometimes I tap out the plant and look at the roots to see how healthy they are. I wonder though if the garden clerks mind. I guess if I broke the plant then I buy it!

I missed my $5 off an oil change AGAIN! That was not very frugal.

But I did pull two yogurt containers out of the trash for recycling. We can recycle any plastic with a neck smaller than the container so those drinkable yogurts qualify now.
