    Default Good finds this week.

    DH went shopping and went to the bakery department and god two nice food container pails. They are free and great for storage dry food items. We buy containers of garlic powder and other spices at this food distributor that also sell to the public. Dh was interedted in some shortening and they gave us a free 50lb container to try. It is cotton seed oil and soy. We stopped at a yard sale and I saw a small pressure cooker like one my mother had when I was growing up. The price was a big .25 cents. The thing I remember most about my mother's was we made the best popcorn in it. Will give it a try. We got another 2 cords of wood delivered at $145 a cord which is the cheapest we have found around here. We will be getting more next month to get us through the winter as gas and oil prices are going up. I quess that is it for our finds.

    Great deals and smart for starting the stock up of wood now before the prices go up.
