I’m already being bombarded with all the shopping emails! This week will be a doozy. I’m hoping to buy new underwear haha

I guess it’s probably a good thing I’m locked out of FOS haha

That should be our new resolve — buy only underwear and coffee this Black Friday week, lol.

(Speaking of bras, lol, I haven’t found a decent one that I like in like 20 years so my favorite ones are older than my DD :sad:).

It all started because I couldn’t find the Decaf Sugar free Maxwell House F Vanilla at the two Targets near me in almost 3 weeks (can’t find at supermarket or Walmart either). I use a couple spoons instead of using sugar and creamer with my brewed Decaf. Finding decaf is not easy sometimes, anyways, DH said I should just check Amazon. DH buys everything there (lightbulbs, socks, presents for me and work, lol) due to convenience/laziness. What do you know, I found it on Amazon and at the same price as Target (actually no tax) so I ordered two 4-packs. I also started looking at brewed ground coffee there and found one that I used to buy but the stores no longer carried. Seattle’s Best brand decaf. So I bought one. Now I am kinda interested in trying Amazon brand decaf — mostly good reviews. I have been drinking Starbucks decaf for a couple of years now I actually tried (suffered through some, lol) a dozen decaf brands available and liked SB, Peet’s, Kirkland, Seattle’s Best, Illy (most expensive) the best. I did not like McDonald’s or Dunkin Donut brands :sad:

Happy early Thanksgiving! What kind of coffee do you get from Amazon? We’re getting tired of the Jose’s coffees from Costco (we buy either vanilla or dark roast).


That green is pretty!!! You find the best bags.


Another beautiful one!

I don’t remember it either, but I know how you love duffles.


If I recall they had a bandit with links. But they were like multicolored.

Underwear and coffee I like it! Yes it’s hard to find our perfect bra. My favorite are from Aerie which is the American Eagle brand. They have lots of options.
 
I have this too and love it! It is leather lined. I doubled the strap for a shorter drop, use it more as shoulder bag.

Gosh, you are also enabling me, lol. I saw that it’s leather lined so it made it more appealing (I might like the look of it more than the black Tabby Hobo). Thanks for the tip on doubling the strap. I missed the extra 20 off though, so I will have to wait.
 
It can also help correct most bite issues as well. I think my treatment is so long to deal with my overbite. In about a week and a half I go for some attachments, they attach little tooth colored buttons to some teeth to help with movements. And I’ll also be getting elastics to wear in one side to help correct my bite. I have a feeling I’ll be super depressed for a few days after lol I admit the first 3 days with my trays really had me questioning my whole life hahaha I got over it so I’m hoping I can quickly adjust to the next phase. You really have to change your daily habits. I can no longer just snack whenever I want or drink a sip of coffee. Meal times have to be planned. A lot of people do say they end up losing some weight due to not snacking as much!
Good to see you back! I need to do the very same things too. My lack of sleep and energy just suck it all up... I desperately need more sleep, but I'd like to keep hubby. :sleepy::angel:

I have not tried the AE brand. To be blunt, my problem is that I am flat and fat at the same time so nothing fits great. I should just go au naturel and save money.

I also buy everything on amazon haha! I’ve been an amazon prime user since they first started the program, probably like 12 years at this point. I would tell everyone about it and my friends and family all thought I was so weird for buying deodorant on the internet LOL Oh how times have changed!

I use a keurig even though I don’t think it’s that great. Someone bought us one as a gift so I started to use it out of obligation and now that’s just what we have. Amazon often has multipacks of different keurig coffee pods. I like getting those to try different flavors without having to buy a whole box.

Finding one that fits is hard! I’ve tried a few of the Aerie bralette styles which often don’t have underwire. They are very comfy but still flattering. One of my favorite things about shopping with American Eagle is that they are very inclusive to all body types. They also use models of all shapes and sizes and they don’t photoshop out “imperfections.” We all have stretch marks so let’s not pretend models don’t either lol

Anywhoo I always like to spread the word about American Eagle. We need more clothing companies like them!
 
@Iamminda here you go. Sorry I'm not very good at staging. Lol.

Thank you House :). These are so beautiful—I love the look of each one. I think I only remember the purple one. The melon and turquoise colors are really pretty too. I may need the black duffle in my life after all but I missed out on the extra 20 off (I hate knowing that extra discount was just available, lol). And also the fact that I shouldn’t buy any more bags this year — we will see how strong my resolve is.

Thanks — I need to check out this store. I think my DD buys stuff from their online store

I just bought some jeans from AE - black jeggings. Their sizing has changed. I have 3 pairs of skinny jeans from them, all different sizes! I have bought Aerie underwear in the past but I have tons of underwear now from VS. My favorite bra is Victoria's Secret dream angels demi. It fits me perfectly. I've been wearing those for years. My daughter does too. We're both very busty.
 
Im currently reading about the life of Coco Chanel....a real paper book too...otherwise I sometimes have 3 devices going at once...My samsung tablet , and Note 8 and phone.
I want to resume my love of reading. I just bought a book to read. My Name Is Mahtob. Remember the Movie Not Without my Daughter? This book was written by the daughter. I hope to at least read part of it over Thanksgiving break. :smile:
