I hoped for a deal on the google pixel 8 pro, but the only thing they offered were $100 Google Play Credits

#52Earlier quoted context omitted.
It's basically a rubber hose, and rollers that squeeze the hose to push liquids through. The motor runs the rollers. Also means that the liquids don't touch the motor.
Very common in medical equipment that works with blood in fact
Very good, it's for a micro-aquarium so I won't hurt any humans if it's cheap (but I take good care of my critters, not to worry).

#53Stuff for kitchen renovation. Sink, faucet, range hood.
Edit: And some durable medical equipment for my mom.

#55Absolutely nothing.
I did check the status of my IRA RMD's, to make sure they were scheduled by end of year, and feeling the need for some fresh air, went out and lopped a lot of mostly dead brush that was hiding a magnificent 30 foot tall (or more) Manzanita tree's trunk. I sent some photos to my family.
I don't like crowds, in person or online. My mom introduced me to "Walden" by Thoreau at an early age, and hence to Transcendentalism. Thoreau wrote a translation of the Lotus Sutra, I later found out.
Sometimes, the best things are already there, just hidden.

#57A wireless charger phone mount for the car, about $23, barely counts as a purchase of any significance considering I bought a sushi takeout today for $27.
We in my house have enough stuff and nothing is needed. My kid went to the mall and got some perfumes and the like, but she complains that the “deals” this year are not deals; they’re just markdowns on markups.

#58New case to carry a Starlink Dishy around internationally. https://nanuk.com/products/nanuk-960 ($100 off for Black Friday) Special edition coffee from a roaster I was introduced to. https://www.modest.coffee/product/2023-special-collector/ (just happy with these products, no affiliation, not compensated in any way)
Nice looking case! I got the OEM starlink travel case ($250) and was quite pleased with it. Even has backpack straps, though I'm not going far from the vehicle with starlink.

I really like the design and style of the OEM case you mention, I just didn't feel comfortable checking it as checked baggage. Needed something that could take a beating as cargo (I also bought the foam and shaped it for the dish and base). Thank you for the recommendation.
