Who knew cheap night vision glasses worked?

Last Friday- December 6th I stopped by Dollar Tree and to my surprise found some Chinese knock off yellow night vision glasses. I have seen them on "As seen on TV" but not at a price I would want to pay.


They had a large selection so I bought two pairs. By the time I got through shopping, it was dark so I was able to put them to the test. To my surprise, I could see!


Thinking it was a fluke I put them to the test again the other night and was pleasantly surprised that they worked. Who knew dollar glasses would solve my night vision problems!

Today I finally got confirmation that the TV I ordered during Black Friday was ready for me to pick up.


While at Walmart decided to stop at the "As Seen on TV" aisle and saw the original night vision glasses for $14.88.


As well as the two pair HD polarized version for $19.88.


Had I known these glasses actually worked I would have bought them a long time ago!  Stopped at Dollar Tree to purchase another pair but they were all gone...glad I bought two pairs on my last visit.

The last time I was in town gasoline was selling for $2.129 per gallon but it has gone up a nickel since then. This evening it was going for $2.179 at Walmart.


Same price at HEB...

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Hope you filled up your gasoline tank

When I heard of the attacks on the Saudi Arabian oil fields my first instinct was to drive to town to fill-up before the price went up.  Being the Queen of Procrastination decided it could wait until this morning.

Arrived at the HEB pumps at 9:34 a.m. along with a lot of other people for this time of the day.  Was able to fill up at $2.179 per gallon for unleaded gasoline.  Hope you all were able to fill up today as well.

Was going to head home and come back later but decided to tackle the shopping now that I was already here.  Was glad to see that the price of avocados finally went down to .77 each.

Nothing makes me madder than knowing I have a certain item at home and not being able to find it.  I know I have empty pet food bags that I use to bag up grass clippings and those pesky mesquite pods.  Brokedown and bought the 30-gallon paper lawn and leaf bags.  Hopefully, my procrastination will not get in the way and I can tackle that chore before trash day.

Saturday morning I went to check on the cats only to find that the worthless neighbor's truck was once again parked at his parent's house.  Have not heard a peep out of him for now.  I thought perhaps he had come back without the wife and kids but I think I saw her this afternoon :-(

Today we had a high of 100, a low of 75 with a heat index of 105 degrees.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
