I noticed that Amazon has been amazing with shipping things ahead of schedule this Christmas season (so far). It looks like they rented a bunch of vans from Enterprise to keep up with the demand, as I've seen a lot of mysterious white vans delivering my packages lately 🙂
 
I had a package from Home Depot that was originally scheduled for delivery on Tuesday (12/7) then it changed to Friday (12/3) then FedEx said "delayed" and showed it still in Olive Branch, MS. Then, back to "scheduled delivery, on Wednesday (12/8). Delivered this morning by FedEx.
New generator was originally scheduled for delivery on Wednesday (12/8) was notified that it's on the truck for delivery tomorrow. (we'll see...)
 
Years ago I told my son a story. My son told his friends and they all called him a liar... Today I found the paperwork.. I'm trying to send it to my kid and my freakin phone keeps failing to send. On a side note my brother thought I was lying as well. Gonna send this to him as well...

$1.25 for a peanut? 😱

$1.25 for a 16 oz bottle.

Unsalted of course. I have no need for trace cornstarch and maltodextrin present in the salty nuts, although a couple bottles of salty nuts were purchased merely for taste testing.

It’s great since I can make super cheap peanut butter in a blender.
 
Had a pellet stove installed today. Took 2 months to get it once we ordered it, but it's finally here and installed. Installed price was around $5200, but it SHOULD make the house a bit more comfortable while cutting our electric heat bill considerably.
 
Thanks to many of you, I was able to fully stock up on groceries, lots of chicken, frozen veggies, eggs, cheese, yogurt. Paper towels, toilet paper, aluminum foil, garbage bag, toothpaste & all the fixings for Christmas dinner …feeling the ATOT love here❤️❤️❤️
 
Long story >> Short story ... had a problem on a website trying to order during a web-only sale. CS sent me a coupon for 25% off my total order by email to use in store. I go, get my stuff, check out. Out in the car I'm looking at the receipt and it doesn't seem right somehow Turns out they knocked off something like 75%. Umm, OK. Cool.
 
Stopped to grab a burrito at a local place for lunch and the girl working there told me it was on the house today, pretty nice surprise.
 
Ohio State (somehow) won the Rose Bowl.

With how they looked in the 1st half, I really expected them to lose. Their D was really, really, really bad.
