Instead of using a tea bag at work 4 times, in order to use up my remaining supply I’m only using them 2 times. It would be nice if the 'Tea Fairy' would drop off a box to enable single dip teabags for the final countdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't let a single morsel of meat go to waste. Crab legs don't grow on trees ya know. I've heard they grow on crabs 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few days ago I tossed a couple nickels out the truck window and wondered if that was going to become a norm going forward. the melt value of a pre-2015 nickel is 6 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ferguson Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I used buckets to run hot water before taking a shower or bath. Then I used the buckets of water to flush the toilet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I always use self checkout at a grocery store even if there's a wait because I'm afraid a cashier will ask me to donate to a charity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My response is usually: Do you know your store takes the money and then gives the money to the charity taking a tax write off and getting some publicity? Really what you are asking is do I wish to donate to store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Buffalo Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 I don't believe I am cheap since I do lots of fun things with my family but I want a good deal. I know every restaurants in my area who has "daily specials" and I get emails from a ton of restaurants. I explain to my kids we can't do everything but we can pick and choose to to anything we want if we are smart about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 8.99 at the liquor store I went to. Was pleasantly surprised that it was drinkable, had bought a few beers along with me as a plan B in case it wasn't. Thanks for the tip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
