Always Looking

 

Not a lot to post about for today, since it was Thursday and I spent a couple of hours at the pool. My attire was, again, suburban grandma. While I wanted to wear wedge sandals, I knew I'd be doing some shopping on the way home.  None of these pieces were from any notable brand. Just a bunch of 99 cent pieces.

Most of my jewelry really was inexpensive. The only "real" piece is my diamond necklace, which I never take off. The other necklace was a dollar from a garage sale. The dangle earrings are mystery metal and from a friend. The single pearls are gold filled. You can't really tell the expensive from the inexpensive -- which is how I like it!

I am not the type of person to stick to a list but instead am always looking for a bargain. We are out of white flour, but Aldi only sells the bleached kind. I did buy a few trays of chicken breasts because I am going to skewer them for our party next week. Luckily, Tops is across the street from Aldi, and I knew I could get my flour there. While I was at it, I got bread flour too. Since we are going to have chili tomorrow, I decided to buy some queso to top it. Whenever I am in Tops, I check out the clearance shelves to see if there's any markdown that didn't go to the FlashFood program. Today I found a large container of coffee -- something I am stocking my tariff shelf with. It was worth it to buy it at half price. I do always Google to make sure the original price isn't falsely inflated. It wasn't

The thing is, no one can tell if you are wearing, cooking, or otherwise serving mark downs. So it's always worthwhile to be on the lookout!
