  9. I don't buy extra oil for some of my yard/gardening power tools. I have used canola oil for years instead. It works just fine. Burns cleaner too.

  20. Guess what 10 years of Netflix cost

    Across every price hike since 2016, a Standard subscriber paid about $1,700. At today's price the next decade is $2,400. Jellyfin does the job for $0 — quiz with receipts.

  24. #FreebieScore 😀
    A newer neighbour put out a huge pile of these crystallized landscaping white rocks. I went over & filled up 3 big buckets full. Toted back on my mobility scooter, looking like a weirdo with legs off the side of scooter with my buckets on footrests. I don't care about that. I got lots of awesome free landscaping rocks ✌️

  28. Used, wheeled, stand-up golf bags & used baby strollers are good for gardeners who are physically disabled, who are able to stand/walk independently but struggle with carrying heavier tools/supplies around. I used a heavy duty, used, free baby stroller, to tote my gardening tools/supplies when I lived on farm acreages. It allowed me to work more independently, tending to gardens.

  32. Scored free white lattice, garden border fencing parts on side of road, on my way back from visiting my Uncle at VGH.
    Put them in my front gardens 😎
