Hmmm we need a few things but it looks like this week it might be better to shop at Co-Op. We did get the rest of the AM from my last load-down, so I updated my signature again. So exciting!
I've bought all types of braces at Rexall, just sayinQuick side note
Injection ordered but we will delay me getting the shot till after Disney.
I am just one of those people that if it (prescription) has a listed side effect I will probably get it.
Dr. recommends a knee brace for right knee,,says it is affecting the stability of left knee,,it never rains sometimes.
So now I have to look for a knee brace that doesn't cause the eczema and psoriasis to flare.
Good news is I have lost 5 pounds,,,
I might try a Shoppers Home Health Care place close to me.

So sorry I missed this Isabelle and thank you for taking the time to explain that! Clearly, I was not even close with my calculations but I do prefer my method .Base: 20 AM
5X: 80 bonus AM (total with base:100 AM)
10X: 180 bonus AM (total with base:200)
Total: 280 AM
Psst ... @bababear_50 .. not sure if it's just me or not, but the last 2 pictures you've posted here are showing as broken images to me. I really want to see the pic of your fur-grandbaby to compare with OURS (also all we're getting here we've been told ) son & his wife have 3 cats, a dog and .. A HORSE!! Our daughter & her wife have a cat, and yes, we do buy them gifts
I think the one from today is alerting us to the $10 gift card if you spend $30 on the weekend at Rexall?
Thanks! I'll need to call my insurance with fingers crossed that some of it is paid for.The Synvisc that I had for my injections was not covered, was fairly expensive but my work drug plan covered a lot of it. It worked for my issues and no down time.
THAT'S the name of what my doctor mentioned when I had the cortisone shot. Thank you for the name and the link!Hi Deb
Thanks for sharing with me....
I have been looking forward to getting away but at times I've wondered if I'd of been better to just stay home and rest.
I have also been watching the disabilities threads and thinking if I have to I will get a EVC and I have adjusted my expectations
from previous trips. I've made some sit down reservations and all my FP+,,I do enjoy a nice cup of coffee and people watching.
Hopefully the weather is a bit warm and I can just enjoy some sit around the pool time.
Thanks again
Mel
P.S. Tink and Deb
I know someone who swears by Hyaluronic acid injections for knee pain.
She is a very spry 80 year old and says they works wonders for her knees.
I know she pays the doctor a fee for the shots.

For sure get the knee brace! I injured my right knee in 1999, but wasn't able to find a brace that fit, and I think it was because the left leg carried the brunt of things over the years that it is the one that has the worst of the arthritis. I've already told my kids....care for things now, not later!Quick side note

19,383 to-date. Less than I thought but a nice amount regardless!
My husband's card earned 10,629 to-date.
That's impressive! Maybe another 3 will post before the 1st so it rounds up to 28,000 even!
Those of you who have 5 figure miles for the year - how do you do it?! I feel like it'll be impossible to do just with gas, groceries, and Rexall - - but is it possible???
Hi Hon
Everyone is different,,,,,, for me,,I rarely shop online.
1, I buy the $100 or $150 Sobeys and Metro and Foodland grocery gift cards when available.
2, Last summer I accumulated a lot of airmiles buying gift cards at Shell and using them for my everyday needs,,(Canadian Tire Gift Cards,Home Depot Gift Cards--I was doing a home renovation).(Every 100 dollars I spent gave me 100 airmiles).
3, I stockpile paper and cleaning products and only buy them when they are on sale and if I can get airmiles.
4. Have you ever bought a Grocery store gift card and then when doing your next shopping thrown in your favorite coffee shop gift card or gas card??
Shop The block =2,000
March Mega Miles=1250
total
3250 airmiles
Hugs to you
