If the menu pages are anything like the files being released, the page would be all black, lol. Totally ridiculous imo.

On a different note, we're getting ready for some snow here. Dense fog today, five inches of snow and maybe ice tomorrow, and then below zero temps on Monday. Yikes! I'm thinking of making some soup to keep warm.
You could have a lot of fun with Trump Burger. For example, you could Cruz in for an Epstein Burger unless you're in a Rush and then you'd have to get a Bongino to go.

i went to gertrude hawk yesterday morning to try to score some leftover christmas chocolate that is 50% off. there was very little left, they must've started the clearance before christmas.
on top of that, i was supposed to have $10 in my rewards account.
the cashier told me she could not find my account by phone number, name, or email address.
What is Gertrude Hawk? Hold on, I'll go look it up. Oh wow, I want to try the dark chocolate raspberry crunch bar. That sounds yummy!

One more thing I must say about not missing chasing the deals at CVS and Walgreens, it helps tremendously that we still have enough of most all the basics from when I was shopping.

We probably have enough toilet paper, paper towels, napkins, aluminum foil, cleaning supplies, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, shaving cream, face products and makeup to last us at least another two years. And for those who might say some of these items 'expire', I mostly haven't found that to be true.

I have had to buy some kleenex and vitamins this year. I will need to buy some more of them, the deodorant my husband uses, aluminum foil and ziploc bags within the next six months. Hopefully I'll find some holiday clearance sales because ultimately, I don't care if I'm using something with a holiday theme at a point when that holiday is long gone.

I also stay away from these two places. Never patronized either even though hubby gets things at Hobby Lobby. I figure there are other businesses I can get whatever it is I need.
When my son was young, we went to Chick Fil A frequently. The food is good, eating inside the service was usually very fast and they had a play place for the kids. But that was a long time ago.

Why not get the baggies at Wags at $2.79 for 3? The Wags baggies are sometimes difficult to seal but the price is unbeatable. They run the sale all of the time.

I'm almost out of paper towels and I always need toothbrushes. Other than that, I'm pretty well stocked up. Oh, I'm low on water but Vons is 2 for $5 this week on the 24-packs. The Vons store brand is excellent.

I've never been to Chick Fil A but I've always wanted to go. I live reasonably close to one but it's always packed. I guess I'll skip it now.

If you are a World Market Shopper, their Christmas stock is plentiful and all is 50% off. In the fine print on the shelf signs it says the 50% off sale will go until 1/7. That means starting on 1/8 it will go to 75%. People were buying like crazy. I knew exactly what I wanted, found them still on the shelf and came home happy.

Trump Burger closed in October. The irony being that the owner was arrested by ICE back in May for overstaying his Visa.

Are you being serious? Did this really happen?

World Market has some great bookshelves. At 75% off, they're an absolute steal.

When I need them, I'll definitely consider those. That's my 'in the next 6 months' probable needs list.

Thanks, I haven't been to World Market in a long time. We used to go there at least once a week.

Totally serious. "Roland Beainy, who ran the Trump Burger restaurants, was arrested by ICE in May 2025 for overstaying his visa and faced deportation proceedings." All locations were closed by October.

Trump Burger was a chain? Looks like it had a broken link.

Hell might freeze over before I give any of my money intentionally to anything with that name on it.

I just finished Season 1 of Wentworth. 10 stars isn't a high enough rating to give it. It's free to watch on Tubi. Wentworth is a roller coaster ride of emotional devastation set in a women's prison. The characters are unforgettable. Some you'll love and others you'll hate but they're all multi-dimensional. Nobody is all good or all bad like in most tv shows.

It's an interesting business decision to open up such a polarizing place where you'll instantly turn off half of your potential customers.

It was in Houston Texas, so he probably only turned off 30% of his potential customers. Yes, there are a lot of stupid people in Texas!
