Last day sale items, from CVS shopping today! With nice weather, to help my shopping off I went, last check cvs still had supply on shelf, this last day of their sale. Kamehameha Shopping center has Time's Supermarket too, so you know, I'd go here too.
Got my sale items, used my 30% off coupon on body lotion and found a delicious La Frances candy, by the previous customer, as she was checking out! Hooray!!!
Times Supermarket, had pretty cut flowers, with a packet of flower preservation packet, so I got a bunch. Summer watermelon, caught my eye, only 3.19 for 7 oz, perfect size for me! All in all, a very good day. Dinner, no cooking Pineapple Cottage cheese in Ritz and watermelon!

@oahuwriter We are only two, not a big family. I buy the baby watermelons, usually they weight 3 to 4 pounds, once you peel it it's not a big quantity and if you cut a slice and wait to peel the rest, it keeps about 1 week in the refrigerator.

Yes, but, you've got family, to eat all of it. Myself, just this 7oz one, perfect.

Good times and deals at the market!
So are you braving hot and humid weather or is it better as of now?
Here we are awaiting some good rains.

We had a nice heavy rain yesterday.
But surprisingly, skies cleared fast by 2.00 PM and the Sun was shining much brighter and sharper.
It again rained today morning.

I didn't cook today, either. It's nice not to cook in the summer.

I'm glad you were able to get some good bargains. Is Oahu a very populated island? Are you near the water?

@oahuwriter I didn't realize that Oahu had that many people. You should post a picture of your lovely island!

Ok, if I find something to post with pictures, I'll post about it. Yes, population has increased. We got 7 days to shop, so we adjust, which is good, ... Christmas shopping is ridiculously busy, at one time!

Thanks! Yes, Oahu most populated out of all Hawaiian islands. There's over 882,000 people on Oahu alone. I live 2 blocks from Kalihi Stream to my west. About 4-5 miles from ocean, Sand Island.

@oahuwriter I got lucky at our local grocery yesterday. I mainly buy just meat there and I got a $5 off coupon that I didn't clip! The cashier was astonished. I didn't say anything. She called another clerk over and she said, "Yeah, it is a coupon they save on the app!" I don't have the app!!!

Indeed! Almost missed it. Took a quick look, hoped for sunny day! Was tempted to get myself a Burger King treat, but behaved, and came home.

Me too. Don't like oranges much, so I get Simply Light Orange Juice. I like dried fruits too.
