Friday 11-24 Black Friday

Black Friday


It's Black Friday, what did you do today?

We're not really shoppers but if we find a good price on something we need or use we will purchase it. The Home Depot and Lowe's had a great deal on both AAA batteries and AA batteries and we are getting low on both. Larry did the math and found that the best deal was at Lowe's. That's where we went for a Black Friday special. We bought 36 AA and 36 AAA batteries for $5.97 each, we saved $9.00.

On the way to Lowe's we stopped by HEB to pick up a few things.

After doing our shopping we headed towards the house. We were driving near the Pepper Creek Trail so we decided to stop and walk the trail. It was still cool outside so the walk was very nice. We walked for an hour. Last time we walked the trail the waterfall was not running but today it was. I always thought it was a natural waterfall but Larry told me they pump the water from the creek and recycle it. It's still a very nice waterfall.

During the afternoon I read and finished the Archer's Tale. It was a good book that took place in the Mid-Evil era. I also played with my new Just Dance program. While I read Larry changed the transmission fluid in the car for the second time to make sure it was clean. Then he cleaned the throttle body. Before doing this project he watched a few videos and researched the project. He didn't want to damage anything. Our local Chevrolet dealer quoted us $535 to do these two things, it took Larry less than 2 hours and he spent a total of $75, a savings of $460. Now that he knows how to do each of these he could do them in even less time.

In the evening we watched YouTube videos and an episode of GizWiz. We rented a movie off of Amazon for $2.99 called Django Unchained starring Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz and Leonardo DiCaprio. It was a good entertaining movie except it was bloody at times. We had a super day.
