The only 'we' you seem to have is in your pants stained.
As for everyone - well besides just a few like 5-Dogs Smith, Mothra-Methhead, Dnarever the Mummy and Peccary the Coward-Pratt. You really don't have much going for you Monk.
Even Aussie has jilted you like a bad smell in a stifling PA forum you run.

I don't think you're qualified to use 'everyone' for your benefit.
The vast majority hate your guts. That much is sure.
Probably why for long periods when no-one responds to your posts - you pine for Bobby's attentions.

Then the idiot will say he didn’t mind losing the C&Cs election tho it obviously rankles even now! He seems to be working from a theory that I won the election due to sock votes.

Get over it, Jason! Accept you lost and ask FD for Womens Issues, Atheism or Fringe modships.

I didn't mind losing the C&C election Monk.
Even said to VIC "I'm not really into winning this." Wink

I was relieved that you won Monk. So how that still rankles me, I do not know? Though I'm sure you hope that it does, just to make your insecurity of 'how' you won, less guilty.

How will you feel Monk, if Aussie came clean on how many 'fake votes' you got to rip the Members off on this fine Forum to attain 'a' Modship for yourself?

Will you answer with integrity or hide behind your blathering? Grin

He will feel quite okay. No sock vote was counted. No sock of mine voted. You can abandon that crap.

Then why did you say a few weeks back to the kind at Monk something about "Last time I help stack votes in your favour Monk." I'll try to find the exact post and wording that gave me this impression. If I don't, then I'll forget about it. My loss.

Really, Elections should only have active Member votes. That is, only Members who have posted in the last 3 months and more than 5 posts, to void dormant socks. VIC, doing a good job of it - could only dismiss the obvious socks. Saves Members calling in other people from elsewhere to join, just to vote for them.

I didn't.

It didn’t.

You missed the C&C Mod election? See Jason make an idiot of himself just before the count was announced (I won, of course) and just after?

Ever since poor Jason has been trying to console himself by imagining he “really” won but I and Aussie cheated.

Aussie helped round up some valid votes for me, like I did for Sad Kangaroo in the Fringe election, got Sad over the line.

Aussie ? Is there anything left on OzPol which will enable me to see what happened there?

It must have occurred whilst I was coping with/caring for poor mum. I honestly don’t recall such an election taking place.

(In fact I thought that the sub forum Mod position for Cats and Critters was merely appointed by Freediver)

Back in my university days, I would do a $50/fortnight shop. I would only top up on bread and milk when I needed them. I recall the time we had some kind of levy applied to fruit and vegetables to help with the farmers during the drought. But, ever since 2010, my grocery bill has increased to $200/fortnight, up from $100/fortnight. Even back in the days of 2010, I could get quite a bit for $100.

$200 a fortnight is actually quite good.

For one person, $150/fortnight is quite good. I was able to do $75/fortnight up until the year 2010.

I’m glad you were able to get that shop done. Let’s see what happens next fortnight. I bet you’ll notice an increase in prices creeping into your grocery bill too.

I’m holding back from doing a Woolworths shop until Wednesday.

I completed 2 Big W shops which essentially consisted of buying office and school stationery, shampoo, conditioner, laundry liquid, bleach, dishwashing liquid, tissues, paper towels and drinks. Oh and toilet paper. These items are cheaper at Big W than at Woolworths as they’re available in bulk quantities. I spent around $300 but that’s for both shops.

I’ve been looking around this morning and I’m slowly realising just how much I DO buy from Big W. It’s my go to store for hair colour, hair accessories like my brushes and hair clips/combs as I have very long hair I twist it and pin it up so that gets it out of my way esp as I cook a lot. I’m looking at my hand and face cream, our hand sanitiser and disinfectant, as well as disinfectant multi wipes. All from Big W. Ahhh yes!! Our kitchen and bathroom garbage bags. Windex/Window cleaner...again from Big W as it’s cheaper/litre. Ahh our paper towels are cheaper at Woolworths. However once in a while they are in sale at Big W so we grab those too. Re footwear we buy our slippers and thongs from there. Re clothes we buy tank tops and singlets plus undies and bras and nighties/pjs. Oh and their merch stuff (like Star Wars or Game of Thrones or Bluey etc T shirts). I also buy the boy’s undies and socks esp when their Bonds range is on sale. Our Tontine pillows are from there (I grab those once a year when on sale of course - to replace our existing ones). My husband and youngest boy both sweat through their head which is a pain so it’s important I have extra pillows on hand for them. Oh and Big W’s high end bathroom towels are great IF/WHEN they’re on sale. So I stock up on those because towels are always in demand here.

Note : Whenever I shop at Big W it’s always online and I go straight to the multi buy tab and the clearance tab and scroll through to see what bargain I can grab and throw into my online trolley. After that I look for particular items and choose the “sort by lowest price first” option.

And even after all that effort .... I still find I spend over $150 per shop. So I walk away unhappy and frustrated 😐

Right now I’m in Big W looking at their kid’s beach towels (official merch). And guess what? On clearance!!! I just have to grab these and put them aside as gifts for later on in the year.

Larry cooks a lot?

A fruitcake he cooks all the time but didn’t know the ingredients of?

Doesn’t know about economical cuts of meat?

About the only thing I believe he bought food wise were the sausages he mentioned and forget the “gourmet” nonsense.

LOL! I reminded Larry he had criticised my buying of good sausages from a great butcher at the Adelaide Central Market. All of a sudden the sausages were not for Larry and sausages and mince make him sick. You can’t make this crap up!

I think Larry buys some socks and jocks for himself at BigW. Not too many jocks—one lasts him a week you know {shudder!}

Now see that Bluey beach towel reduced to virtually half price (from $19 to $10?)

That’s an opportunity for me to bulk buy. So instead of buying 1 or 2 I’ll jump in and buy 10.

I then put these away (our home office has a huge built in wardrobe up against 1 wall so I can store stuff esp gifts away). That sorts out some of the kids in our family/friends/neighbourhood/church. $100 all up for 10 different kids who will go wild over official Bluey merch.

THAT’s what makes me smile! And it motivates me to keep sourcing bargains to share around.
