Qwaruba moose hide house slippers with sheepskin liners. I wear mine almost every day and many times all day even though I'm working outdoors. Very comfortable and my last pair lasted me 10 years before the soles wore out. I replaced them last year and paid $80 on Amazon for them.

I would like to try an air fryer. Also a weighted blanket (I have intermittent issues with insomnia). I’m also looking at a SimpliSafe or Ring security system.

If you enjoy coffee, try a few bags of the New Mexico Piñon coffee. Normally, I consider flavored coffees to be something that should be de-invented, but this one with a touch of roasted pine nuts to flavor it, is quite good, IMHO. (Yes, they will also sell a person all sorts of flavored coffees  )
I just ordered a supply earlier today - Buy one get a second for 1/2 price. Free shipping on orders over $50. This brings the price per pound down to more reasonable levels.

If you are a wine drinker, Wine.com is running a Black Friday special - One cent shipping on a minimum $49 order.
(I am not affiliated with them in any way - I just order wine from them when they run offers like this).

Thank you so much for that tip! I just used it.
I wanted to order some from Chateau St. Michelle, but they wanted $66 for 2 day shipping and won't ship ground this time of year. Arrrgh!!!!
Amazing thing - the wine is shipping on Friday, and will be here Saturday!!!
I guess they must be close by.

My favorite socks are from Icebreaker. They are pricy so I usually wait for a sale then load up.

You're welcome. I have been pleased with their selection of wines, and their prices seem generally fair. Also.......when they say they don't want to ship your order due to weather issues (cold weather, I presume), you can override it, as long as you assume the responsibility for safe delivery. I just ordered a case of wine from them, and I had to do the override, because I live in Michigan. I knew wine would not freeze at the temps predicted for the next week or so, and everything turned out fine......wine arrived in good shape. Their shipping is fast, and you can choose your delivery day. I think they are based out of New York state somewhere.
Yes, the promo code is PENNYSHIP.........I should have included that in my earlier post.

They obviously have several distribution centers around the US. You have to select your destination state before you can even select what to order. That really helps with the shipping. No way it would get here overnight otherwise.

What model? How do you like it? We’ve always owned Japanese cars but I’m sure DH would love to have a BMW.

I got OEM mats direct from a dealer on eBay for a fraction of what the local guy wanted to charge me. FYI.
