Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 16 Nov

Wifey and I rarely go out, so last night was the exception with the only aside being we went out last week as well when we met up with my sister and brother-in-law at a local bar and restaurant called Charlie's Place. I told her...

Hey Dude

Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 21 Nov

My Dinner Was Effectively Ruined

Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 30 Jan 21

My wife never understands it. If I have lunch it is usually around 11 am to noon. MAYBE 1 o'clock. But rarely. We stopped off at Burger King at almost 2 o'clock, and took it home to eat. So it was probably about 215pm to 230pm...

How Dominos Pizza Made Money Today Thanks To MyLot

Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 12 Feb 21

Granted. It's Friday. You work all week and make your money. You cook all week because it's just the right thing to do and it saves money. Friday should be a treat night, right? It's only right. I had no intention,...

Bible pushers are getting really bold.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (69972) • Daytona Beach, Florida 16 Nov

Good morning. This morning I heard our doorbell going off. Two men in suits were walking around trying to invite themselves into people's homes to sell the bible and more likely their faith. I of course made them go away and I'm...

Pizza, Pizza

Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 4 Nov

Breaded Pork Steaks Last Night

Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 15 Nov 20

Being that I am not one to necessarily stick with "traditional," I had some pretzels in the cupboard, and I poured them into a blender and crushed them all up into a sort of "breading." I added that to some flour and added in some...

Avian Bird Flu My Big Butt

Jim Bauer @porwest (91179) • United States 24 Nov

Jim Bauer That would be a good price. 30 eggs for $3.57 and I'd have them in my cart in a flash.

Talk About a Meat Plate

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (198) • United States 24 Nov

This is what I had for brunch this morning. The liver and onions plate ($14) came with two sides. So naturally, with me being on the Carnivore Diet (meat diet), I asked for bacon and sausage as my two sides, which they happily...

Four Walls @FourWalls (68148) • United States 24 Nov

Did You Hear Walmarts Warning?

popciclecold @popciclecold (38877) • United States 24 Nov

Frugal Shopping: Online Earnings Paid for What #3

April @thislittlepennyearns (62633) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 24 Nov

This one isn't really that exciting. But since I haven't really been around and I used online earnings to pay for this, I figured I might as well add it to a win and this category. We have wanted to watch several shows on...

Butter recall

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (44564) • Staten Island, New York 24 Nov

Costco had to recall its Kirkland butter because it did not have on its packaging that it contains milk. Apparently including milk in the ingredients list is not enough. A product has to have the phrase “contains milk.” I wonder...

Life: What does $24 buy you at Dollar General?

April @thislittlepennyearns (62633) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 24 Nov

There were a few things we had to pick up, so we decided to just go to the Dollar General Market instead of having to go into town. Saves on gas and annoyance. For just under $24 we got: 2 liter of Pepsi Gallon of Whole...

Now Big lots is closing.

Judy Story @jstory07 (139748) • Roseburg, Oregon 24 Nov

Jim Bauer Our Big Lots are closed as well. For them it was more of an issue of too high prices for a bargain outlet and dirty stores. They literally sent their customers away.
