My pups use Seresto collars and Ivermectin injectible on their food. I've never had a single flea in the house.
Oh, Boy! Nothing beats a .38 gift card!FYI, my hubs told me that he saw a post from a Kroger worker on Facebook that they will not give any change back. They'll accept exact change, but if you have to pay with cash and you don't have exact change, they'll give you the difference on a Kroger gift card.
Last trip to grocery store and special trip yesterday. It's Summer hot here, wanted some cold treats, popsicles. Very short supply here.
Bought box of Outshine fruit ones a few days ago, literally the last of a half dozen boxes of any flavor or style.
Went yesterday hoping to have a better selection. Nope.
Bought Italian ices, only a few of those left too. Also bought a pack of grape Outshine popsicles, three boxes left. Basically no standard popsicles or freeze pops, only the more gourmet style and a few options at that. Plenty of ice cream and candy style frozen novelties though.
Well, my mother was born and raised in The Pit and is half Polish. I was born there too. I love Polish recipes, and she was good at it. Ukie recipes are awesome too. I remember my Ukie neighbor's mom making those little dough pies, either filled with mashed potatoes and fried in butter & onions; or the same recipe filled with cherries and dusted with confectioners sugar. I forget what they're called -- golumpki's maybe?

Oh, this is golumpki's - my mom's were so good:
Golumpki (Gołąbki, Stuffed Cabbage)
Traditionally, a Golumpki recipe is a meat mixture such as ground beef, mixed with rice, onions, and spices that is then rolled in a cooked cabbage leaf. ... This Golumpki is simply a meat mixture that is rolled in cabbage, covered in a tomato sauce, and then baked to savory perfection.Apr 25, 2018
I had a dog groomer tell me that Lemon Joy dish liquid would help with fleas.We have had a major flea problem at our house. Went to 5 stores to get hertz flea shampoo and finally found some for 9.90 a bottle.
I love Nathan's hot dogs. I'll try a jar of their kraut.

Nope. Got raspberry and pomegranate the other day.I can only find the Outshine bars in strawberry and was wondering if they stopped making the other flavors. I love the coconut ones, but none to be had. Been to three stores looking.
At the height of the early shutdowns our Kroger didn’t have potatoes stocked, either. Totally empty one Sunday morning!i live in Ky. i went to walmart, aldi and kroger today. at kroger there were no bags of potatoes and no bags of onions! they only had a few loose potatoes. i have never seen before this in my life. there was only one small bag of red onions. walmart had many empty spaces on the cold cut isle. aldi's seemed to be fully stocked!

I was looking for a specific product for my mom and happened to be in WM at just the right time to grab a bottle of all purpose lysol lemon cleaner and a 3 pk of chlorox disinfecting wipes. They were disappearing as fast as the stockers could get them on the shelves.
Limit 1 of each.

My local news had a story tonight that there is another run on S. Call stores due to the 2nd shut down.

I read that it was a nationwide shortage.
I planted both Red Norlands and Yukon Gold (potatoes) in the community garden. I replaced half of the soil in the bed with sand (with the site manager's permission). I have a crop! This is the first successful potato crop I've had in Iowa since I moved here. I've had fine harvests from my salad gardens (in containers), all of the herbs, and some so-so harvests of green beans and squash. It's been bad for potatoes . . . too wet or too dry. I've been babying that bed. I so want potatoes this winter!
Added: I rent the bed in the community garden, plus contribute several hours of work, mostly hauling mulch down from the city yard waste area, where they make compost, in the spring and fall. This became necessary because I have yet to grow potatoes in my yard! Too much shade.
Coke Life, Mello Yellow, Sprite Zero, Fresca and more. These are among some of the products you may have had trouble locating on store shelves in recent weeks.
And you’re not alone.
Apparently the big reason why there is a shortage is because people are consuming far more beverages at home than usual, and this has created a huge demand for canned drinks.When asked about the situation, Coca-Cola told one Twitter follower: “We are seeing greater demand for products consumed at home & taking measures to adapt, working to mitigate the challenge during this unprecedented time. We appreciate your loyalty to our beverages; please know that we’re working hard to keep the products you love on the shelves.”
Unfortunately, we aren’t just facing a shortage of aluminum cans.Both Coca Cola and Pepsi have reportedly been forced to focus on their most popular flavors in order to keep them in stock, making the less popular flavors harder to find for the time being.
Grocers are having trouble staying stocked with goods from flour to soups as climbing coronavirus case numbers and continued lockdowns pressure production and bolster customer demand.
Of course those are precisely some of the key items that preppers tend to stock up on.Manufacturers including General Mills Inc., Campbell Soup Co. and Conagra Brands Inc. say they are pumping out food as fast as they can, but can’t replenish inventories. Popular items such as flour, canned soup, pasta and rice remain in short supply.
That is serious.If you pay with cash at one of Kroger’s cashier checkouts, you won’t be getting coin change for a while, and it’s indirectly due to the coronavirus.
Kroger spokesperson Erin Rofles confirmed Friday the grocer will no longer return coin change to customers. Instead, the remainders from cash transactions will be applied to customers’ loyalty cards and automatically used on their next purchase.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also deeply affected the meat processing industry. Numerous meat processing facilities all over the nation have been shut down in recent weeks, and this has limited supplies and pushed up prices.Walmart has also been impacted been the shortage. In a statement to WMAZ, Walmart spokesperson Avani Dudhia, “Like most retailers, we’re experiencing the affects of the nation-wide coin shortage. We’re asking customers to pay with card or use correct change when possible if they need to pay with cash.”
Once again, meat prices went up.
I have repeatedly warned my readers that meat prices were going to go up substantially, and so hopefully a lot of you out there stocked up before the price increases hit.Overall, beef and veal prices rose 4.8%. Pork prices grew 3.3% and bacon got 8.1% more expensive. Hot dog prices grew 4.9%.
I've had good luck getting frozen veggies on sale and then I dehydrate them and bag them with the sealer. Also caught a couple of good deals on fresh veggies at local produce stand on sweet corn, green beans so froze the corn and dehydrated the beans.Went to Walmart yesterday and was really surprised at the empty shelves again. It was like the beginning of shutdown on the canned veggie, pasta, mac and cheese, soup and frozen depts. The only coke or dr. pepper was in bottles and few of them. Meat looked better. Produce ok, except the sweet corn was brown and dead.
They did have a huge pallet of 7 cu.' freezers and some refrigerators.
