Snow?? I'm in Denial

United States
November 14, 2018 9:36am CST
Will we really be getting snow tomorrow? My knees say yes which doesn't make me happy. My knees do very well telling me that the weather is going to change and today I am almost incapacitated so.....I'm assuming the weather will be bad tomorrow. The forecast is for sleet, snow and rain but I'm betting more on the sleet and snow. They say up to 3 inches in my area but now they're changing it to maybe 5 to 6 inches. I'm hoping we get more than 3 inches because then the snow removal company comes and does the plowing and shoveling. Anything 3 inches or less we have to do ourselves and my driveway is fairly long. Since we have no control over the weather I will just sit back and see what happens. My daughter is supposed to work tomorrow but she's going to talk to her boss and see if she can switch her day and work on Friday instead. Her commute is bad enough without adding inclement weather. Anyway, life is good here. The sun is shining and I'm sitting here with a nice cup of coffee and ready to chat. I have meatballs and sauce in the crockpot for dinner so that's off my "to do" list for today. I also got a nice little check in the mail from Ebates (do you belong to Ebates?) If you're not familiar with Ebates it's wonderful because they will give you cash back for shopping online and nearly every store I shop in participates. I would be spending the money anyway so getting cash back is a big bonus. I'm anticipating a good day today and hoping you are too.

It's that time of year again, I suppose you're preparing for the cold months by now.

I do not know Ebates, but I am going to check if it could be interesting for me. No snow here yet, it is still very warm, weird!

Ebates is ok but I use Mypoints more often or else Swagbucks.

I guess that is a great reason to want more snow. I have to shovel myself and have a long driveway so I don't ever want snow . My daughter just got home from school and told me school might be cancelled Friday because we are supposed to get a lot of snow ick! I don't do Ebates I use my points for online shopping.

@rebelann yes I have and the one time I did an offer with then it didn't credit and I had to contact them about it so I just stick with mypoints.

Oh, I never try those, I stick with using their shopping feature if they have the better % offer @shaggin

Mypoints usually gives better percentages on purchases but have you also checked Swagbucks?

We are expecting 2-4 cm tomorrow, but that isn't a lot, so I will adjust my driving accordingly. Today was nice and cold early this morning, with no wind and it was dry, just a perfect start to the day in my opinion. Of course I did just buy myself a nice new warm winter coat on Monday, that might be part of it.

We, too, are going to get a rain/snow mix. Sigh.... Does Ebates have SAKS Fifth Avenue on it?

Yes it does. Right now you'd get 2% of whatever you've spent before taxes.

I'm glad you got a check from Ebates. I don't know if you need to spend a certain amount in order to get the check. I've only had one purchase I used for Ebates and still haven't gotten a check. I haven't spent a lot of time shopping online in the last few months. If I could do my grocery shopping online with Walmart, then I would get more with Ebates. I'm still waiting for my local Walmart to participate. Right now they only do the merchandise. I hope you get the greater amount of snow so the company does the clearing away for you.

@rebelann I get my eggs and almond or cashew milk there, but most of my food shopping is now at Aldi. I like their quality so much better.

Ebates give a % back on purchases made a certain retailers. I've been paid a few times but I also use Mypoints and Swagbucks depending on which one gives the higher percentage.

@Marilynda1225 I have never heard of Ebates and it would not work for me. I do not buy things online. So, if you get the 5 or 6 inches then you can stay home.
