-First bike ride of the year! (Yes, we're fair weather riders). Rode the 2.5mi each way to the store (5mi total). Saved gas.
-Went to swap our soda stream cartridge at the store. Had a $5 off $15 or more coupon. The swaps used to cost $15.99, IIRC. Well, they dropped them to $14.99! Which wouldn't let me use the coupon. So we wandered around for a while, and eventually found a $0.99 travel size toothpaste. Husband travels every week for work, so this will get used. And it allowed us to use the coupon. One cent ahead of the old price and a free toothpaste to boot ;)
-Did some landscape work. Took a big overgrown evergreen bush out. I'm sure when the house was first landscaped, over 20 years ago, these were size appropriate... but as it is now, it was huge and growing up into our japanese maple and it all looked very gnarly. Instead of spending the money for extra tools that would have made it easier, we harnessed stuborness and 20s vigor and hacked it out with a combination of tree pruner, shovel, and hatchet that we already owned. Doing this now will also save us a trip, since we will dump the load at the landscaping place when we go to pick up mulch.
