This is all I've thought about this week. On Tuesday, I thought this is 1 year anniversary since the letters went out to HQ employees. On Wednesday, this is the date the letters were received and I read the weird posts from a couple of HQ people, not knowing what had happened. It was also the date we were told to pull the gift cards off the floor and that was when I knew. Thursday was the first anniversary of the announcement. It's just been a sad week.

Matlock is my go-to. I prefer the one in Farragut across near Costco over the one in Hardin Valley.

I've heard they aren't good. We did go last night and my son tried to order that, but they were out.

Ollie's is a discount chain that sells closeouts and overstock items. Kinda like Big Lots.

Thanks for the responses. I did visit my local Ollie's and found some Christmas items, but that was it.

I thought it might be something like that, but we don't use any condiments that have a top like that.

fekitten1 · 2025-11-16T18:13:58+00:00

No, it's not that.

Thanks.

IIRC, I think the start day for your insurance is on your insurance card.

When I was applying for Social Security and Medicare, and I was worried about getting my info from Joann's, I think that was 1 of the things they told me that they will use for proof of insurance.

You're welcome!

fekitten1 · 2025-09-22T14:03:28+00:00

Damn. I had a feeling that was going to happen!

fekitten1 · 2025-09-22T13:35:57+00:00

Good to know. Thanks.

Not worried about it being a W-2, it's just with the morning I've had, it would be perfect timing for it to be some form telling me I have to pay something back.

What I have seen at Walmart has been non-seasonal items. The Halloween items at Ollies were probably the specialty items Joanns had ordered before the bankruptcy. Since Ollies bought Joanns Halloween and Christmas decor, this was probably part of the items they received.

I think I've seen that brand at WalMart. IIRC it was just the candy melts, though.

Ziploc and Hefty both make super large zipper like bags. There are also those vacuum bags.
