This is exactly what I do, but I bring a half filled water bottle and drink the water before I go through security, then after security fill the bottle with cold water from an airport water fountain. It seems flying is dehydrating so the water bottle always comes in handy on the plane and on the ground. ... View related article.
These things are nasty aren't they? Unfortunately they lay eggs that turn into yucky little worms in things like flour, cereals, anything they can get into. I don't use chemicals but either refrigerate my boxed items, or enclose almost everything in containers with tight fitting lids, or use good quality zip lock bags to put all my baking products in. It's a lot of work but that's the only way I have gotten rid of these nasty buggers without using chemicals, which I won't do. Good luck to you. ... View related article.
The following are a few ways I have taken advantage of my Costco membership: 1. When shopping for a new/pre-owned car, I shopped through the Costco website, which works in conjunction with car dealerships to give a great discount to members. 2. The car I rented through the Costco website was gotten at a remarkable price. 3. Fridays are a great day to go to our Costco with all the samples available. 4. The bakery at our Costco bakes the most remarkable wheat bread. I am a label reader and there's nothing but wonderful and natural ingredients in their wheat bread. 5. I also used their services to get my eye glasses at a great discount. The benefits of membership are too many to review here. Don't forget the cheap lunch after shopping. Great place to shop and well worth the membership price. And by the way, Costco gas for your car is cheaper than anywhere else. ... View related article.
Barbara, you are sooo lucky to have an Aldi's near you. They are a German store and I shopped there when I lived in Minnesota. I like the idea that you have to 'pay' to borrow a shopping cart and get your money back when you return it. I hope the Aldi store will move west and eventually hit California, where I now live. I remember being a 'pick and choose' mom when I shopped there, but there were many things that I really loved to buy there and saved a bunch of money. I especially liked their cheap flower bouquets, coffee, fruits and veggies, and other items that I cannot remember. I hope someone will help you out with the brand itself; I don't remember anything about that. Sorry, but happy shopping. ... View related article.
