Lot's of 's this weekend.

I received a stand mixer. Many more recipes are no within my range.
I also received a cast iron dutch oven. Also more recipes on the radar now.

Went to The Girl and the Goat for dinner last night. Amazing food.

Memory for my computer came today. Installed and working already.

So last week Thursday at 2am I found a killer deal on a brand new Bowflex, a coupon for $800 off plus free shipping plus upgraded weight resistance from 210lbs to 310lbs. Total value with shipping and upgrades would have been a little over $1,600. I got it for $530.17 shipped.

Well Sunday afternoon, they refunded my money trying to say it was a mistake. They had given me a confirmation receipt and had held my money for 3 days. So last night I called them and they tried to say they couldn't honor that price, after a little bit of arguing, I got them to honor the price and I got a shipping confirmation this morning at 2am.

Cleared $290 at the casino yesterday.

First time I've been to the casino to play poker in a while. Felt good to turn $100 into $390 and then leave. Quickly.
