What have you bought today?

Watch for the prime prices inflated to cover the "free" delivery.

I pay for prime and usually search for stuff listed as prime. The dog food wasn't.
Prices that way. Varies. Sometimes they are cheaper than other web sources or more or less the same.

I did mostly use Prime for movies but now use another source. Looks like Prime movies and no adds costs more now.

I just sign up under different names, have one months free trial and cancel. Next time I log on in the same name after the trial ends and go to buy something, they give you the option of another week for 99p.

Went to an organic vegan supermarket in Chorlton.

Some lovely food there, mostly organic, but it is dear.

Still, for a once in a while treat, it doesn't break the bank.

A bit like farmers markets. Cut out the middleman…..and the price goes up!

More hypoallergenic food and B12 supplement capsules for the dog.

More vet time - just over a grands worth today. Still more to come yet - I’ve got to collect a sample of her shìt for the next three days and stump up for that to be sent off for analysis to a private clinic in the Swiss Alps no doubt! You'd think for what we paid today, they’d chauffeur someone round to do it for us!

Got the invoice for testing three dollops of shìt today. £180.00

Mottie, I think, recommended Co-op's own brand tomato ketchup, and as Avril was popping in the Co-op, for something else, I suggested she buy some to try. That was Monday, been dying to try it since then. We had some frozen chips, in the freezer, which needed using up, so I suggested them as a bit of a quick snack, and a way to test the ketchup. I's definately better/tastier than the Heinz we usually buy, so it's a keeper here, and much cheaper.

One years drone insurance. If I lose it or smash it up, I can get another one at a much reduced price. Like all insurances, I hope I never need to use it.

Black Friday. Got Mrs Motties Xmas pressies. Coat, hat, scarf, boots. Hopefully she'll STFU about being cold when she goes out. Bought myself a 128 Gb mini SD card for the drone.

Some while ago, I bought myself an ex-business desktop PC. It had no wifi, but came with a USB adaptor. Despite being very close to the access point, it struggled for signal and throughput, so last week I ordered a dual band, usb wifi 6 adaptor, which arrived this morning. Plugged in, the adaptor included the drivers inside the dongle, which it ran on plugging it in. It now transfers at a speed, only limited by the speed of the WAN.

Might be the solution to your drone aches and pains, mottie

 

[Mottie]

Never! I’m going to tough it out.

A new iPad for my mum. Just a basic 64 Gb 10.9” 10th Gen.

£329 with a years guarantee from Apple but £289 on a special offer with 2 years guarantee from John Lewis so I bought from them.
