I bought a little hydraulic jack, on special sale for Prime Day.
Very undramatic, and I hope I never have to use it.

What about you? They had "small" 45 inch TVs for $100! I almost got one.

Path. It works well you do have to pick up stuff.
This new one can be programed to a Path. I bought my son one and he runs it while he is at work and granddaughter is in school. Cleans up pet hair very well.

you can name the rooms on the map, and create a scheduled day and time to clean by room(s) or just vacuum everywhere.

My roomba handles the hair from my li g haired dog, long haired cat and short haired dog. It fills the canister each day, which I empty at the end of its run. I have hardwood floors.

It easily goes under the couches and around chair legs. It will get stuck under my range, but you can get little stations to set up that basically tell it to keep out.

Mine runs every morning at 10 am. I pretty much run around at 9:50 real quick to make sure there isn’t a dog toy or pillow on the floor.

I can pause it if needed from an app or by touching the top of it.

New Wyze wifi 6e mesh with 4 nodes, some shorts, an air cleaner (Honeywell 300) that went on sale for $149 after I had bought two of them this summer for ~$190 each but one is still within the 30 day return so it goes back when I get the cheaper one. A new set of Bose headphones. I think that’s all, maybe $800 worth of stuff.

I stocked up -

- on Liquid IV sugar free hydration packets for our Florida trip.
- a sun shade big enough for 2-3 people. A design that my son said seemed to work really well for the family next to them at the beach last weekend. Not a Shibumi, but similar with 2 poles and sand anchors. It’s 4lbs and fits in a backpack.
- Ethique bar shampoo
- rain ponchos for the family - packs ina fry bag with a zipper and drawstring hood - much better than what they sell at Disney.
- and a resistance band set with handles and wall/door anchors.

My sizes are hard to find, so if I find them on sale, I buy them. I can't be too picky about the color (Amazon gets to choose). "Wild Fern" it is.

item I ordered on the 9th still isn't here, though it was supposed to arrive on the 10th, then the 11th. There have been multiple switches between promised delivery and notices that it's been delayed. So apparently Amazon isn't handling deliveries well.

Still might take advantage of the 2 months for 99 cents/mo deal for Acorn and/or Britbox, but I'm already paying for 4 streaming services I almost never watch, don't really need 2 more to ignore.
