    If it was just me, I would probably cancel it, but DH really likes it and uses it constantly.

    When my son is not here I spent between 180-200/month on groceries for myself. I shop at Winco which is the cheapest place locally.

    According to my AARP magazine phone chargers use electricity even when not charging, so I unplug mine now when not using them.

    There is a jacket that has been in the closet at work maybe 10 years. No one knows whose it is and it looks like it has never been worn. The boss said I can have it so I will take it home, wash it, and wear it come fall.

    It actually didn't fit so I gave it to a coworker.

    Although it's hot I didn't run the A/C at lunchtime in my car. It wasn't unbearable and the office felt very refreshing when I went back in.

    After well over 10 years, our little Dirt Devil canister vacuum cleaner finally bit the dust.It was a great little vacuum. Started pricing out a new upright and... OMG! Finally found another Dirt Devil upright for $69. Hope it does as well as the canister.
