Throw it out but I rarely wear socks

Rarely. I attempted to break the book habit of bending the bottom corner of a page I wanted to reference in my book discussion group by using post it notes but I fell back on my old habit. Used to use them at work before I retired.

Today’s Question:
Who cuts your hair ? Hairstylist ... Right now, I like the Regis Salons as the last two locations did a great job Think it's time for a new cut ...
Are you a “regular” someplace with somebody,
or do you go to different places/people each time ? Usually, I go to different places depending upon location ... I've had good results with Regis and have gone to two separate locations so I may just stick with them ... There is a particular stylist I'll request who took time to explain care and upkeep of the style she did and did not use much styling products.

Extra Credit:
How do you package individual food for freshness and/or transport:
saran wrap (cellophane/plastic on a roll) ?
tin foil (aluminum foil) ?
sandwich bags (plastic or paper) ?
resealable solid container
or other ?

Bonus:
If you find a hole in a sock, do you throw it out or do you try to mend it ? Uh ... I toss them when they are no longer wearable ... Not into mending as the socks aren't too expensive to replace.

Just for Fun:
Do you have Post-It notes ? Yes, there are some in my desk somewhere ... They were given as a promo item so I use them whenever I feel the need.
Do you use them ? Occasionally

Who cuts your hair ?

I prefer student barbers, I only need to cut tops and anyone can do it. I save $$, professional takes 40, a student takes 13 What I save I use massages etc.

Are you a “regular” someplace with somebody,
or do you go to different places/people each time ?

Different places



Bonus:
If you find a hole in a sock, do you throw it out or do you try to mend it ?

If a wool sock, I fix it, if not, then I buy new ones.

Just for Fun:
Do you have Post-It notes ?
Do you use them ?

Sometimes. It fits better between a book, it needs real tape to stay in a door or a wall etc.
