FWIW I now breed and raise velociraptors.

I used to run a small unicorn farm but those little suckers are mean.

I currently have two... Reggie likes to be scratched between the eyes. He's like a big puppy dog, that will eat annoying neighborhood children. Karen (aptly named) is a little bitey...

Great,
The Farm and Fleet has stopped carrying big and tall
Lee Carpenter jeans.

ND of course nobody knows anything about why, when or if

A trend I have noticed lately is the big box stores do not carry all items available on their website, just the more expensive version.

I was looking for washing machine hoses. They had the SS, color coded (hot/cold) on the shelf, but the standard black rubber generic hose for half the price had to be ordered. Amazon had them to me at less cost in a day or two longer than the ordered part from the big box store.

Also, when I was looking for parts for my lawn mower, the air filter from big box stores were $15, fuel line filters were $8. I found air filters on Amazon 2 for $10 and fuel filters 10 for $6. Did I need 2 air filters and 10 fuel filters? No, but spending less $ was worth the wait.

It may sound like I am cheap, but I prefer frugal.

Thrifty.

I don’t see why it’s a big deal. As soon as I think about it, Alexa and Cortana already have it ready for me to buy. Lol.
