Great thread idea @deb922 ! I agree with your husband on those bars, lol.
This is timely for me- I bought a few watch bands for my Apple Watch and wish I hadn’t. One was missing a clip to attach to the watch and they look really cheap. One is metal the other a fake leather. I’ve bought the plastic ones on Amazon for tennis and lap swimming and they are great. On my phone, trouble enough typing around our bot friend so sorry no links.
I’m an Amazon fan, partly because they gave my son such a nice job, but also because they’ve been convenient and reliable. And our VISA is giving 5X reward points if used for Amazon this quarter.
Let’s see; what have I bought that isn’t just everyday practical stuff…
My new cheap webcam. I tried ordering a better one directly from Logitech but I don’t think I’ll ever see it, and there doesn’t seem to be a way to cancel an unshipped order. So I got this, which is working just fine: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085WYL2SX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_S6syFb1ZGJS7T
Screen repair tape: by.RHO 2"x105" Screen Repair Kit. 3-Layer Strong Adhesive & Waterproof Ideal for Covering up Holes and Tears Instantly. Screen Repair Tape for Window and Door Screen. Fiberglass Cloth Mesh. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GS6JEEC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_c9syFb2W7VRJG
Great little fry pan; we will go to the same company when we need a bigger one: 8" Nonstick Frying Pans with Lids - Granite Skillet, Aluminum Frying Pan with APEO & PFOA-Free Stone Earth Non Stick Coating, Stir Fry Pans with Stainless Steel Ergonomic Handle, Oven Safe https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y6GSWD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_S-syFbCV5W8JH
And I just sent this to our son in Seattle. I was thinking ahead for the winter, but he can probably use it now, with all the smoke: Light Therapy Lamp, TaoTronics UV-Free 10000 Lux Therapy Light, Touch Control with Stepless Brightness Levels, Large Light Surface, Memory Function, Compact Size for a Happy Life https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BYSWZTD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_matyFb852XHH8
I looveee this idea for a thread! I’ll look through my orders later to remind myself.
In the meantime if it’s not asking too much will people lable or identify your “hits” and “misses” better? If they are not labeled sometimes I can’t tell if you liked it or not.
The above is an inexpensive iPhone case that holds 3 cards securely. It is surprisingly nice for the price and allows me to carry my license and 2 credit cards easily. Comes in many colors, but I have the mint green that looks like Tiffany blue in person.
Got this for additional light in my sewing room. Like it a lot! Would also work in an office or next to a reading chair. Base is about 8" square, so the footprint is small.
Packs of reading glasses. I lose them constantly, and keep a pair everywhere – car, purse, office, bed side table etc. CVS and Target etc. charge at least $15 a pair, which means I generally have close to $100 in reading glasses floating around my life. So, I really appreciate $15 for the same number of glasses and I don’t care so much about losing them etc.
Apple watch case/screen protector. This was my first attempt at having a screen protector instead of just a bumper. It was a fail. Condensation accumulated every day under the protector. I had to go back to just the bumper.
D20 is very petite and her blouses and dresses have narrow shoulders that don’t fit well on regular hangers. I switched myself and DH to those black flocked hangers but they were too big for her clothes and I had no idea that they made them smaller until very recently.
I am also doing my part for the environment and have bought these for my purse and have given several sets of each for gifts - reusable straws and bamboo cutlery
Well @Marilyn you influenced me! I bought the light therapy light. It was in a lightening deal with a $10.00 off coupon. I think I got it for a little less than $26.
Well, I’m trying to decide whether the blouse I just received from Amazon is a hit or miss. It’s so warm right now, long sleeves are unpleasant and it’s not as fitted as the original blouse I have but it’s not awful either.
I guess I have 30 days to return while I ponder. At least it’s a nice light color—light grey.
What a fun thread. @Marilyn , I put one of the lights in my amazon bag, DS was telling me he gets gloomy in the winter, so I’m going to get one for him.
@deb922 , I really like that sweater, it looks cozy. Here are some of mine.
Hits:
Love, love this blush and the price. I usually do Clinique.
@deb922 - I had a $15 instant savings deal; there were so many choices but I liked the shape. My son warns not to be looking straight at it when you turn it on. Very bright!
