Yes some times you have to watch out for the bulk sales. Here it is cheaper per pound to buy the 4 pound bags of Sugar instead of the 20 pound bag. You can get it for 4 cents cheaper per pound by buying the smaller bags. I think the stores are trying to trick you. I always bring a calculator or...

This is a very good point. But if you store seeds correctly, some can last up to 5 years.. But less will sprout. Oh another good advice my aunt told me. You never use all your seeds you have during planting time. Only plant about half. That way if crops fail you will have more to plant. Some...

I know Im not as prepared as many on this site. But I do what I can and get extra when I can. Im no where near what I would like to have. I know we all need to prepare. I sure hope this lady snaps out of it and gets at least a months worth of food in the house at one time. If not for her, but...

Thank you for telling me about the glorybee one. I may have to check both places out the next time I go to Springfield to see my sister. I usually go at least once a year.. I may be moving closer to Springfield soon. We really want to get out of Curry County.. Not much here left any more. But...

I missed the "recovery" also. It never seemed to get better, just worse. And I bet its going to get way worse before it gets better. The Guvment is just saying there was a recovery to appease the sheeple..

Wow Mountain Rose Herbs is in my state. Who knows I may have driven close to it before. Im going to have to look at the website a bit more later.. I have been thinking about starting to gather up medical herbal seeds and trying to sell them. But it may take awhile to collect the types and to...

Every one thinks to save heirloom seeds of vegis and herbs. But has any one thought about saving some seeds of medical herbs.. AKA: Weeds.. Like dandelions, chicory, rosehips (can you save the seeds of these?), and many others. I was just thinking about this the other day.. You never know if for...

@ THEFAN I wish the older Subarus were easy to find here. The one I ended up with, every time we go to napa to get a part. Its not the right one. Come to find out its rare for that year to not be turbo and to not have 4WD.. Right now we are on the search for a carborater.. We cant even get the...

Your mercury dime is actually worth $2.81 today.. So your still ahead on that one.. I check the values on coinflation.com Please please market dont completely crash for a couple of years.. Im way not ready. And I can only prepare a tiny bit at a time and when it is tax season.. Have one gun...

Maybe look for FFA or 4-H in your area.. They are the ones who I believe check stuff like that here. Well the 4-H any way. We dont have FFA in our county.. The 4-H here even has canning classes for adults to learn how to can.. Its worth a try.. Do a google search for both clubs in your area..

On our craigslist we some times see a dentist offering to barter.. Or maybe it was the town overs craigslist.. I have also seen a plumber and carpenter offering for barter.. Ive seen an ad for an attorney also.. But who knows if that one was a scam or not..

Our hospital here does not allow VBACs.. They are not equipt to deal with an emergency if one arrised from it..My first child was breech sideways.. No amount of trying to make the baby move into possition would work.. I had to have a c-section.. Almost 5 years later, I was pregnant with my son...

No heat wave here. We have had a few days of 83-85.. But most of our days are only reaching about 72 degrees. Its actually a cold summer here.. Last year was way way hotter. This year it seems like summer never got here and its still spring with less rain. But I bet our Fall is going to be...

Wannnabe, I would love to buy a horse.. Ive always wanted to be in a place where I could.. But full size horses are not allowed here. But in my town you are now allowed to have mini horses. I found one for free in the next town north of us. But alas, I have no where to put it.. I live in an...

Ok this car is more pain than its worth.. LOL.. There is no company that makes a repair manual for this car. Chiltons and the other one does not..People keep asking for one, as of 2 years ago, they still have not put one out. Grrrr.. The only way we got a repair manual is to buy a chilton...

At first we checked all the belts we could see. Couldnt see the timing belt.. After taking some covers off. Yup its the belt.. Its broke.. But it wont come out.. Well guess I no longer have a car.. Have to wait till next march to fix it or buy a new car.

Question.. How do we check for compression by taking the spark plugs out. DH is out right now trying to check to see if the timing belt broke. Trying to locate it. Only can see the alternator belts. THank you we never thought about the timing belt.. He just went through all the fuses and...

Once I smashed my finger in the same place. It swelled up badly.. So badly my finger could not be kept straight. It was bent, like trying to make a fist. I couldnt use any of my other fingers because the swelling was to bad and made my skin to tight. I just kept my finger on ice until the...

About a month ago,while driving I would experiance slight lose of power. But not totally. Then later, once a week the car would stop starting, but the battery was not dead. We changed out the clamps that went on the battery posts. Then there was no more problems starting at all. Perfect every...

Wow. Great idea to reuse an item.. I will try to remember this. Maybe one day I can find a use for an old post hole digger. You never know what you can find at a garage sale..
