DR Laura-- I saw "Tootsie" in October 2019.  I enjoyed it, especially Santino Fontana in the "title" role but can't remember any other details.

[KevinH]

My Costco does not have See's gift cards, probably because there are no stores around here.  There used to be a kiosk at one of the area airports but I haven't seen it in years.  My friends in California love it.

I'm up, I'm up - seven hours of sleep - was up at noon, but phone call after phone call, soundtrack dealer and making Wacky Noodles followed.

[Jane]

One of the things I did was check if my neighbor was planning a future trip to the mall & See's candy.  Perfect timing as she was going today, and is on her way home with my order

I used to love going to See's.

I would order from Amazon, but the prices are a bit outrageous.

Order from the See's website. I am sure the candy is also fresh.

[Jane]

there is no longer a protective awning over the tanks at my local Shell. 

 

Have fun tonight.

Jane and Ron (and anyone else interested), do either of you go to Costco?  If you don't know about this, my local Costco (and yours too, I'm sure) sells See's gift cards for $40, but they're $50 in value...a 20% discount.  Even if you buy See's once, it's a great deal because the cards never expire.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I thought the gift cards were for pound boxes of chocolate which I rarely buy.  I wonder if there is a code so I can use the card over the phone.

[Ron Pulliam]

Back from dinner.

I had blackened salmon and rice.  Sharon had dry ranch chicken wings, and Butch had peel and eat shrimp.

Folks who ate oysters had buckets brought to their table and the oysters were in their shells.

[Ron Pulliam]

Time to settle in for the evening/night.

Friday is my "Ancient Aliens" night.  Yes, I love the show.

I sometimes feel like an ancient alien living here in South Carolina, miles and miles away from amusements.

[Ron Pulliam]

George, I have seen the CostCo gift cards for See's in the California store I used to frequent, but you'd need See's Candy shops in order to use the cards.

We don't have any locally, so it's mail order or bust.

[Jane]

I just looked the cards up and it says they are redeemable in stores and online.

[Jrand74]

Salmon sounds good - but I have to finish the dog hots I made for lunch.

[Ron Pulliam]

Ah!   Well now I know what to put on my Christmas and birthday lists...if folks can find the cards somewhere.

I had two hot dogs for lunch.

Here's the link to the auction up at last......everything has to be picked up NOTHING IS SHIPPED, but everything seems to at a very LOW cost to begin with.

If you have some time to look at 400 or so pictures of STUFF or just want to browse for awhile.

Well anyway - we found out yesterday that the attorney who was supposed to put the "legal" ad in the local paper about anyone who wants to file a claim for a debt against the estate back in December - somehow failed to follow up and the "legal" ad will not be in until next week......so the 90 day window for crackpots and idiots instead of being passed - is just beginning.

He thought it was in even though they never sent him a bill....it's just an irritation....and a delay.....

I am not sure I am comfortable sending a first payout to the 24 heirs until we know that no one from the past is going to make a claim of something or the other.  I don't know.....

I ordered some online and used the gift card without any trouble.  Of course, that was several years ago, but I'd assume things haven't changed.

Cool!

Yikes!  I would think you'd want to wait because you just never know who could have a legitimate claim.

[Laura]

Good afternoon.

[Laura]

I have tickets to see Tootsie this weekend; our local critic gave it an F-.

He never likes anything at Gammage, though. Their sound system is abysmal, which is probably part of the problem.

[Laura]

Today I took Wae-Ling and my Birding Buddy to the arboretum. A good time was had by all.

I walked with my Birding Buddy, who is now 80 and uses a walker. We set Wae-Ling free to explore on her own.

[Laura]

Wae-Ling graduates from high school in a couple of months, and she has her driver's license now. Ya'll have watched her grow up through my posts all these years.

Did your attorney advise you to wait?  It seems reasonable to do so.

[John G.]

I have shown up to usher one last time for Hairspray. Looks like a sellout. They’ve added two rows of chairs at the back.

[Jane]

DR Jrand in MHO you have been moving along at a very good pace. 

[John G.]

Wae-Ling graduates from high school in a couple of months, and she has her driver's license now. Ya'll have watched her grow up through my posts all these years.

Yes, we have. We’ve stayed young, right? I forget.

Probably no.  The question is if you have to use the entire amount per order.  I am guessing yes online, maybe no in store.

Ditto on the good luck.
