I bought a new 55 inch TV with the MVS link, I hope. Finally replaced the 12 year old one in the family room which was rebooting itself every day. Amazing how cheap they are when you stay one or two sizes under the current largest size

The management thanks you for your supportvolvolugnut wrote: 01 Apr 2026, 08:00I have picked today, April 1, as the day to critique your list of purchases to improve your household budget.abscate wrote: 20 Feb 2026, 01:12 I have found messing with household products off the approved list is often rejected by the upper management. I try to buy most consumables off subscribe and save and always get the extra 15% off. Once a month I go in and skip stuff that I am overloaded and/or adjust frequency.
Batteries
Windex
Cat food
Fog food
Bird food
Castrol oil synthetic
Trash bags
Kitchen bags
Dishwasher soap
Persil detergent
Cat litter
Circle of life …dog food, comforts cat, cat food eats birds fed with bird food turning them into cat litter ..
If you eliminate the WIndex, cat food, fog food, and bird food, the need for cat litter and trash bags should be greatly reduced. This should reduce your household budget for expendables and allow purchase of more important things like fine foods, wine and books.
Just my contribution to your household efficiency.

My momma always said I should be helpful and supportive. But, I often fail.
