Your Save-On-More Account

Did you get your new Save on More card? If so, you can register it at this website and then update your address etc. and you will gain an additional 1000. points. I thought that was good, since I am saving up to get a new iron....however, I was going crazy browsing the online catalogue, as there are many wonderful items that you can get for five thousand points, if you pay some extra. I am saving up for a new iron, since my Tefal beauty, bit it, just like my two other Tfals...I don't think I want another. Is it a measure of your good wifeleyness by how many irons you've gone through... I'd say in the 38 years that I ahave been married, I probably have owned no less than ten irons...three of which are sitting in my basement right now, and two that I ditched when we moved from Surrey... that makes about one every three years... not a good track record. Right up there with mattresses. I have had this wonderful contour Simmons beauty rest -la-dee-da mattress for 4 years, and once again my back and knee are so in agony when I wake up, that going to bed doesn't interest me much. The fine print ont he warranty says that the sag has to be more than an inch and a half on a pillow-top mattress...so my back has to sag that much also... a big pain is all it is. A ten year warranty means squat so far as I can figure. Maybe Sears will just take it back. I'll try to persue Sears,after I hear back from the Simmons manufacturer.
oh yes, back to the Save on Rewards. I once netted a food processer in that way...
Looking through the catalogue, however, I see things like a tea maker,a belgium waffle maker, a Portable GPS system and all kinds of cameras and goodies...even nice dog food dispensers and dog cots...so cute...
My inside source said the new Rewards cataloque will come out in April and they will offer a clothes steamer... I might try that instead of the new iron...I must be patient. Anyhow, my ironing pile is way down since Emil retired...:-) Yea!
So lots happening... poor AUnty MAry fell and couldn't drag herself up into her chair... she is back home after a day in Emergency. Uncle PAul had more transfusions, and is hanging in there...so that is good.
We are off to John and Ronda's next week-end and Virginia and Corey and Kendra are coming up this way. I hope I get to see them after we return from seeing Matayas new gift!
Happy St. PAddy's day on Monday... Janice, our Irish friend has invited us over for Irish stew and soda bread ...should be a yummy dinner. Tomorrow, we will have Deb and Ashley over for a nosh, and maybe play a few rounds of Train...
Okey dokey...I think I need to hit the jacuzzi... we walked to the ferry and back today...tricky on the knees.
Oh yes, if you have Itunes, you know that you can listen to world wide radio stations online while you surf the net...I found a great rock and roll station with awesome tunes... just minimise Itunes once you have your station selected and then go about your Internet or email business... fun
have a great week-end...Love ya all...
