I had a flat tire.

I thought my car felt funny in the morning, but I just drove to work. When I was at work, one of my neighbors saw my car and noticed a flat. But he didn’t bother to let me know. He could have at least left a note. But he told me about it much later, after I fixed the tire. Hm… I never liked that guy.

These are brand new tires. I just got those tires. I couldn’t believe this happened.

It took me about 10-20 minutes to put a spare tire. That small jack was painful to use.

After work, I went to Costco. There was a 2 hour waiting time. I decided to wait 2 hours.

So, I went to furniture department and set on the couch for an hour. I read a book. Later, I ate a churro and did some more shopping. 2 hours passed slowly.

My car was ready around 8:30 pm (they close at 8:30 pm). I was tired, cold, and hungry.

Costco repaired my tire for free.

I went to Costco to fix a flat tire. This inspired me to get a set of new floor mats for my Camry. This heavy-duty, fancy floor mats were $18.99.

Check it out. I really needed a set of new floor mats for my 2002 Toyota Camry. I didn’t make that mess on the mat. That’s how it was when I bought this car in 2004.

I treat myself to fancy meals on weekends. I try to make my life interesting on my own.

Today I had.

• Couscous – $.60/serving
• Normandy Style Vegetable Mix  $.40/serving
• Beef Bourguignon  $6.00/serving

All from Costco…

It took me about 15 minutes to prepare everything. This beats eating out.

* Today’s Costco shopping: 5th time this year, 5th time this month.

I didn’t buy anything special today. I just wanted to fill up my refrigerator. 

I needed some pre-made meals (Bachelors’ meal). I also found “Normandy Style Vegetable Blend”. I would have liked it more if there were some potatoes in the mix. But it works as is.

These are laundry sorter handles to go with Seville Classic’s Laundry Sorter. It took a little extra time to get here (about 2 weeks).

Big shopping day

It was a big shopping day today. Coupons saved me $48.99 but the total amount was still well over $300.00. 

Power Juicer was the most expensive item at $89.99. My current juicer broke down this morning. I had to buy a juicer ASAP. I drink juice once or twice every day.

I spent a lot of money today. I am a little sick to my stomach. But, I bought a lot of items that will last many years. It was smart shopping for a long-term benefit.

Juicer, Ironing Board, Ziplock bags, Sweeper, DVDs, & Liquid Plumber should last a few years at least. 

I didn’t eat hot-dog (I didn’t feel like eating after spending that much money). But I put gas in the car.

* I took the ironing board back for a refund
