Today’s Question:
Can you recall having bought an item using a coupon/on sale, that otherwise (without that promotion/discount) you had no interest in, or at least wouldn’t have considered trying ?
No

Extra Credit:
Have you ever used a product that’s specifically made/marketed for cleaning the inside of a dishwasher, washing machine, coffee maker, etc. ?
No, but I'm going to read everyone's answers today to see if they suggest a good thing made specifically for cleaning the inside of the dishwasher. I was just thinking about it this weekend.

Bonus:
Do you own a “boxed set” of media-whether cds, dvds, books, or other ?
Yes, a few like all 6 seasons of Justified, all of the Rocky and Bullwinkle episodes, all of The Equalizer, etc.

Just for Fun:
How recently have you consumed birthday cake ? Was it for someone else’s birthday or your own ? Did the cake have candles ?
I haven't had birthday cake for like more than 20 years, mine or anyone else, but I have had other special occasion cake.

Today’s Question:

Can you recall having bought an item using a coupon/on sale, that otherwise (without that promotion/discount) you had no interest in, or at least wouldn’t have considered trying ? - No nothing that I can think of. I only buy stuff that I figure I'll like, money off the original price isn't an incentive.

Extra Credit:

- Most of the time vinegar works well enough.

Bonus:
Do you own a “boxed set” of media-whether cds, dvds, books, or other ?
- No

Just for Fun:
How recently have you consumed birthday cake ? Was it for someone else’s birthday or your own ? Did the cake have candles ? - I can't remember the last time there was a birthday cake around here. However I usually don't eat most cakes.

Can you recall having bought an item using a coupon/on sale, that otherwise (without that promotion/discount) you had no interest in, or at least wouldn’t have considered trying ? === I'm not a coupon clipper, so no. However, I've probably bought a clothing item off the clearance rack that I didn't end up wearing.

Have you ever used a product that’s specifically made/marketed for cleaning the inside of a dishwasher, washing machine, coffee maker, etc. ? === Yes, for the dishwasher, but I haven't used it yet.

Do you own a “boxed set” of media-whether cds, dvds, books, or other ? === I do -- Downton Abbey DVDs.

How recently have you consumed birthday cake ? Was it for someone else’s birthday or your own ? Did the cake have candles ? === November of last year -- my grandson's.

Thanks cloven.

Today’s Question:
Can you recall having bought an item using a coupon/on sale, that otherwise (without that promotion/discount) you had no interest in, or at least wouldn’t have considered trying? I can't think of anything specific, but it's very rare for me to buy something that is not on sale or for which I don't have a coupon. It makes no sense to pay full retail price for something, since the item will surely be accessible for a lower price sooner or later.

Extra Credit:
Have you ever used a product that’s specifically made/marketed for cleaning the inside of a dishwasher, washing machine, coffee maker, etc.? Nope. I use distilled white vinegar and it works great.

Bonus:
Do you own a “boxed set” of media-whether cds, dvds, books, or other? Yes. I have boxed DVD sets of these TV series: M*A*S*H; Downton Abbey; Freaks & Geeks; Northern Exposure; Everybody Loves Raymond. I also have two boxed sets of Marx Bros. movies.

Just for Fun:
How recently have you consumed birthday cake? Last August, I believe. Was it for someone else’s birthday or your own? My sister's birthday. Did the cake have candles? Yep; just one.

Today’s Word:
rugalach (or rugelach) /ˈrəɡələKH/ (n.): Twisted dough (often, a cream cheese or sour cream dough) pastry with filling (such as nuts, fruit, or chocolate), which can be also be sliced into cookie-sized portions before baking. I knew that!

Today Is:
Korean-American Day
Public Radio Broadcasting Day
National Sticker Day


Fun questions! Beautiful maze! Happy Monday, everyone.

Sorry about all the format errors, folks. I've posted and deleted my post 5 times and am giving up. Something's really screwy with my formatting today. I'll try again later and see whether the problems has resolved itself.

Yes, yesterday. My Vons (Safeway) app had really good pricing on a large bag of coffee in a brand I have never tried before, and also on a Plant Butter that I am trying for the first time.

No, but I am looking at them, I think my dishwasher needs it.

Bonus:

Yes a few: Boxed set of Allman Brothers music and boxed set (2 large volumes) of Larson's Far Side comics. Both gifts that I love.

None lately
