This and That

January 8th, 2020 at 05:43 pm

I'm really trying to keep spending down, but I had to go to PetSmart this morning to get some cat food that Iggy might eat (he's rejecting the kidney food) and some probiotics. That was $38. Aldi is right next door, so I went over there and spent $5 on a few items. I also paid a $25 copay for the urgent care I received after the cat bite in November. It just now appeared on my account.

And last night I took the boys to IHOP for dinner, which cost $29. Variables are at 28%.

I don't see how I can get the table done in the near future, but the restoration company is not going away, and I will get it done eventually. Just won't be having any dinner parties! I still have to fulfill my promise to put $300 in each of the boys' college funds, so that will slow things down. I was counting on having the payouts from insurance and the warranty to cover this, but that money just won't appear. I'm so frustrated.

Hard to believe that it won't be long before they are using those college funds. The elder grandson is 13. So not many more years to build it up!

    Do you have iBotta? If so, you can get cash back at IHOP. I think its 10% for IHOP.

    No, I don't have iBotta. I did have a $5 coupon, though.

    If you’re interested In iBotta, I’d be happy to send you my referral link. I do all my Amazon shopping through there, plus I can get cash back at various restaurants and Petco too.
