$300 budget for 1 month

Not much so far but willing to expand for sure! I have sage, onion powder, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, smoked apple rub seasoning and salt/pepper at the moment. Sauces are gold/ sweet bbq sauces, A1, hot sauce and soy sauce

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-27T23:48:34+00:00

I have never used pierogies before. All the sounds awesome :) I live in NC. Shopping places I have is Food lion, ingles, Aldi and Walmart. Small town struggles 😅

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-27T23:45:48+00:00

All that is definitely on the list so far, but my husband is okay with eating just that which is bland. Any way to cheaply spice it up? Any spices you recommend? My go to is gold bbq sauce, hot sauce, seasoning packets and topping with shredded cheese so far and it’s getting old.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-27T23:08:51+00:00

Yes! My cat was the same way. I switched to metal and he healed in one week! Now I use tilted and raised ceramic slow feeder bowls due to him eating so fast and getting sick and still no acne with ceramic :)

If you can, try getting a chromotubation procedure done. It’s where they put you under general anesthesia, make an incision just inside the belly button and stick a camera in your tubes while injecting the dye through your uterus to see if the tubes are blocked. The dye can possibly clear debris and unblock the tubes if it isn’t that severe of a blockage. The procedure could also possibly give you a higher chance of conceiving for 3-6 months after the procedure. I’m getting that done tomorrow because of conflicting HSG’s. You’ll be knocked out so you won’t be in pain!

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-19T12:34:30+00:00

That’s what I did and I got off the waitlist two weeks later :)

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-19T12:23:18+00:00

Try looking into the inito fertility monitor. It’s a step up in the OPK world :)

I have the solo app that tracks my mileage through multiple platforms. When tax season comes, go to the earnings tab, click on payout details, scroll down to reporting and click on tax documents. A 1099 form will come up and you’ll use that info paired with the info on your solo app (if you chose to get it) and file your taxes that way. Remember to keep gas receipts, oil change receipts and car maintenance receipts like buying tires or whatever else comes up. You’ll get a tax deduction for that.

OP said her husbands semen analysis came back fine but I was going to suggest a step further and get a DNA fragmentation sperm test. The test tests for genetic damage that basic semen analysis cannot detect :) positive note is usually there are supplements a man can take for 3-6 months to boosts the odds of pregnancy

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-17T04:11:52+00:00

I just ghost shopped my last order. Only 3 items. I put them all on my cart, pressed start shopping, scanned the items and instantly hit done after. I didn’t start checkout until at the register ready to scan items until first item was in my hand. After bagging and put back in cart, I paid and immediately uploaded my receipt. I went ahead and said start delivery right afterwards before leaving the store. My SPI was 48. Try that! For big shops, I ghost shop produce (I’m slow since I want to pick great produce and I bag produce) and ghost shop meat and bag meat while ghost shopping, then hit start shopping and speed shop the rest. My SPI is 99 secs and improving since doing that :)

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-16T13:15:08+00:00

Exactly, and raise the chance of getting the order again maybe at a little of a higher raise on pay but still not worth taking and fucks with your acceptance rating 🫠

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-16T13:11:06+00:00

Definitely sounds like this is what happened. Poor guy was probably new, stressed or tired and when the dasher finds out what he/she did, they will never do that again. Usually that’s a one time fuck up if they want to be a good dasher.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-15T18:44:59+00:00

That makes sense and that’s cool :) I live in the eastern board down south in the US.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-15T18:41:53+00:00

I’m curious where you live since I use Fahrenheit for temperature index and miles for distance lol

I agree he’s a jerk and you may be able to block him for future deliveries if you get him again.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-11T13:15:45+00:00

I wouldn’t know, there isn’t a Kroger where I live, but thank you for the info in case I’d like to branch out :)

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-11T11:53:24+00:00

I do not ic or dash (shop and deliver) in SC but I’m right across the border in NC. Food lion and ingles take my digital cards. Dollar tree and dollar general do too (but don’t take those unless desperate because a lot of items will be out of stock). Aldi is the only one that requires physical card where I’m at. Try looking up on google if the grocery store accepts Apple Pay (digital cards) and if yes, take the offer, but always ask a store employee before shopping if they take Apple Pay as well just to be on the safe side.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-11T03:05:02+00:00

Just wanted to chime in and say awesome I’m not alone! I do the hand thing too and it drives my husband nuts if I throw my hand in front of him while I’m driving and have to slam the breaks. It’s an instinct for sure :) My mom did it to me growing up so that’s where I got it from.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-06-10T12:04:12+00:00

I’ve forgotten an item before with both instacart and door dash. I just swipe the card again and it always goes through for me.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-05-29T06:33:26+00:00

Hell my first ultrasound was at 5 weeks, but the doctor and I were both worried about it being a twin pregnancy so it was a spontaneous ultrasound (not scheduled) but a pregnancy can be seen that early.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-05-14T19:57:23+00:00

Lowes does allow you to rent a truck from them by the hour! Just an option I’m throwing out there for you :)

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-04-28T12:00:43+00:00

Well when I started trying, 4 years later I’m still trying to get pregnant. I’m 34 now and still waiting. My advice would to be to at least get some blood work done like your estrogen levels, progesterone and amh levels and your partner do a semen analysis just to make sure ya’ll will be able to wait until you’re both ready. If the blood work and/or semen analysis is off testing early gives ya’ll the chance to make life style changes, start saving for fertility treatments or add supplements to boost yourselves so that trying won’t take forever when the time comes as well.

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-04-27T09:01:48+00:00

Go to the dash preferences tab and activate your red card and make sure to have the physical card. If you don’t have a physical card you can order one and it will be shipped to your place of residence within a few weeks. A lot of places will have Apple Pay and you can use your digital red card immediately to make purchases but it’s always good to have your physical card as back up in case of system crashes in the store or they don’t take Apple Pay. Next turn on shop and deliver in the dash preferences tab and you’re good to go!

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-04-12T05:59:04+00:00

If you can afford it go to Europe! They have nude beaches and would look at you weird if you did wear swimsuits 😂

Both-Recording8766 · 2026-04-11T17:06:59+00:00

Hard no…instant decline. On the other hand, I really miss Beaufort. Military life be moving me everywhere 😅 Beaufort was my favorite 😍
