A Food processor needed to be
returned to Cost-Co and yesterday seemed a good time to do so.
A few weeks earlier, the gadget looked so intriguing and interesting that we purchased it and took it
home.
Without opening the box, my husband did an internet search and read comments from other buyers.
One comment was, "The cutting blades did not seem to last long" and other negative remarks caused us to decide not to even open the box.

Looking over my Mystery Shop
offers, I discovered one for a bank shop in a close by city that would pay a
bonus.
In the same city there was another offer for a free lunch for one, plus a small fee. The fee would cover Lunch for Hubby, so I signed up for both Mystery shops and was accepted.

Lazily we took off to do the
bank shop first which only takes about 20 minutes and Robert could read the
newspaper and the grocery ads. As I left the
bank the associate said, “Have a nice day;” And
I intended to do so.
Soon it was time for our
lunch and we enjoyed a delicious burger, yummy fries and a cold soft drink,
then a drive through for another free item on my mystery shopper list.
Then we were off to Chico to
return the Food Processor and also pick up some groceries. We left with one of their frozen Chocolate
Moco drinks and headed for Safeway where some more specials waited for us. Boned chicken breasts were available at 99 cents a pound and
we stocked up.
Finding a place to store our specials
took energy and we were ready to enjoy a bowl of homemade soup and our two free
tacos as our supper.
The reports for the two shops
took awhile because receipts and business cards must be scanned and placed into
the report, along with a story about the shopping experience and any problems
along the way. One problem was the
ladies bath room faucet was broken and that was duly noted in my report.
Evening was restful with a
movie from Net-Flix and our homemade apricot, banana and yogurt smoothie

Good for you, Hazel. Your story actually brought my heart beat down a bit... living is a gift. How I love your perspective, sister. Breathing easier...
Nice to read updates from your still exciting life:)
Sometimes there is great enjoyment in the smallest of things. I love the days when my husband and I *do errands* - it always seems to bring us closer together!
GOD BLESS!
