My Dad has been building a new shed on his property in the last few weeks. He didn't buy any new lumber for his project due to the rising cost of lumber these days. Instead, he took some wood off of another shed he built a few years ago and used that instead. This ended up saving him a lot of money.
Pictweet is the only brand I buy of frozen vegetables. I saw the Lowe's thing.
ReplyDeleteThat is good to know, Linda. That Lowe's thing is pretty neat.
DeleteAnother great week! I've noticed prices rising on just about everything *sigh*
ReplyDeleteThank you, Martha. Yes, I have noticed price increases as well. ugh.
DeleteSounds like a good week! So glad you will be able to get the second vaccine! Hopefully life will get back to some sort of normal soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lowes tip. I signed up and look forward to getting my garden stuff next week.
Your Dad's building looks great! We redid our deck a few years ago, and offered the old lumber for free. It helped a young father build a deck on his house, and he was going to turn the boards over to get another life out of them.
Oh a funny story when I was newly married, I made some lemonade and took my husband a glass. He took a big swig and said it was a little tart. I had forgotten to put sugar in it. :)
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy Easter!
Oh my goodness on the lemonade, Kathy. That must have been some sour lemonade. LOL I once made a cake icing that called for cream of tartar, I thought that meant tarter sauce. LOL. Needless to say it was horrible. LOL
DeleteHow nice of you to give the lumber to someone who made a second use out of it. I love that.
I'm excited about the Lowe's event. We will have to compare and see if we get the same things.
I'm not even sure we have a Lowes even close by, but sounds like a nice give away. I didn't worry about money this week with my daughter home, but tightening the belt the rest of the month to be sure.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a nice time with your daughter this week, Sam.
DeleteHope your second vaccine goes all well, Belinda.
ReplyDeleteI had more body aches after the second dose, but nothing serious.
I don’t remember seeing Pictweet brand at the store. I’ll pay more attention next time. 😊
Hope you and Bailey have a wonderful weekend.
Thank you, Nil. I have heard that about the second dose as well.
DeleteI hope you have a wonderful Easter Sunday .:)
Belinda, it looks like your had a wonderfully frugal week. Good for you.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Thank you, Jackie
DeleteWe are vaccinated and ready for our freedom too. I hope you'll get back to work soon.
ReplyDeleteGood freebies this week!
Thank you, Vickie.
