Most of you know that I love good deals. So when I got a notification that Ali Express was having a sale I had to take a gander, as usual when I take a gander I found three things that I wanted. So let's get into it. The first thing I purchased is a "herb" grinder. The original price is $13.18 and I got it for $0.35. Which I was actually really impressed with. We had one of these herb grinders before, and when the house got broken into and ransaked this was taken, or broken or misplaced or something so I decided it was time to replace it and at $0.33 I couldn't say no. Plus a savings of $12.83, already off to a great start. The second thing I purchased is a square glass coffee cup with lid and straw. I've seen these on TikTok and didn't want to get six or twelve and pay the kind of steep price. So I was really happy when I found this one. Especially for $0.48. The original price is $13.66, so that's a savings of $13.18. This was another shocking savings to me. And finally the last thing I got is a Bluetooth keyboard/touchpad keypad thing. The bluetooh keyboard I have had for my tablet is like 10 years old, and it's starting to show it. So I wanted to try something different. Plus this one will link with my phone so I can do some myLotting or whatever else on my phone without fighting with the keyboard. I got it for $0.35 and its original price is $8.36. So that's a savings of $8.01. I think I did pretty good. I paid $1.18 total with shipping and handling. The non sale price for this would of been $35.20. So that's a savings of $34.02. So I think that's a pretty good amount of savings. Have you gotten any really good deals recently?

Wow you definitely got a good deal on what you got. I bought a nail item off Tik Tok original price $14 and I paid $1 and something because they gave me discount code

I might get a new keyboard too. Mine is working fine, but the battery cover came off.

This month has proved rather expensive. I finally got around to getting a new computer. While in a spending mood, I got a load of bike bits.That was it for this month, until the telly went on the blink and needing replacing. Definitely no more spending until the end of March!

@thislittlepennyearns I got a Dell G16, which is a gaming laptop. I don't game, but wanted the processing and graphics cards to run video editors

Good for you. It pays to look out for sales. You never know what you'll find.

The best deals I find are often when I fold my money up and put it back in my pocket. The prices of these things don't seem bad at all. Are they necessary or useful? To me they would not be. But could I resell them at a major profit? Probably. But that would be the only reason I might buy them. The question for me when it comes to defining a good deal is, "Would I have bought this thing anyway?" And when I ask that question, I don't use the term, "on impulse." I ask, "if I need the thing or was already shopping for it."
