I have a medical card. The gummies and chocolate bars I buy are so potent. They are 100 mg for each piece. I take them for my MS and they help a lot. Luckily, I have never experienced feeling like I was dying. They either make me crazy hyper or super sleepy.

I would simply be in space with that dose! I'm a 5mg girl. The bars I buy are 100mg total.
One time, I hid my bar in my desk drawer at home. My stupid husband thought I just wasnt sharing chocolate and ate like 4 squares-- and then went to the gym. He, himself, is a SQUARE. He has never done a drug in his life. LMAO He melted to the couch after.
I also made him pay me back for the $15 worth of chocolate he ate.

Oh man. The chocolate bars I get are a lemon crumble cheesecake. The whole bar is 1000 mg. I can't imagine if DH found it and was like oh yummy chocolate!
I'm having my laser treatment this morning for the broken capillary on my nose! I really hope it makes a difference, I'm hanging my whole day on this LOL
To follow up, the bad news is that I won't see any results for a couple of weeks and will likely need 1-2 more sessions so it's not going to look magically better for vacation. The good news is that I joked about using my HSA and the assistants were like, "If it's a credit card, go ahead and try it. Lots of patients do and no one has ever said it didn't go through." So I figured what the heck lol. We'll see.
I have never once had my HSA bank ask for any sort of receipt or documentation. I almost don’t understand it! Our limited purpose FSA on the other hand scrutinizes every charge and receipt with a fine toothed comb.

This is promising! And it's already listed as a regular (not pending) transaction in my account. Makes 1-2 more $225 treatments easier to take. Also makes me want to consider what else I can have done lol
I've been having a problem with my left eye off and on for about 3 years, where it feels like it's just slightly too big for my eye socket, and extra dry and just overall annoying. Normally it clears up with 3-5 days of steroid eye drops, and while it happens 2-3 times a year, it's annoying but manageable. But this last flare up it's been going on for about 2 weeks, so I called my eye doctor this morning. She was out, so I saw a different doc at the clinic, and she says my optical nerve is swollen, but she can't definitively say why, just that I need more tests.
But one of the first things out of her mouth was, "how's your thyroid?" (And she asked if I was experiencing any weight gain or hair loss.) Which... grrrrr!! Because I'm convinced that my thyroid is jacked and I can't seem to get any docs to listen about that.
I did kind of catch a break though, because she says I need to see a neurologist to follow up with the optic nerve thing (she suspects I have a build up of spinal fluid causing pressure). And I just happened to schedule my yearly exam with my neuro for early August. So I have to wait a month, but I'll be following up with a doc I already have a relationship with.

I routinely charge prescriptions to my HSA card. Given that the charge is just from the grocery store, I’m not really sure how they would know whether I was buying a week’s worth of groceries with that money. I’m sure there’s something in the fine print about being able to show receipts, but I’ve never been asked.

Yeah and I figure if they ask I'll just play dumb and be like, "Oh I thought anything medical was ok." Like, they're not going to put me in JAIL.
I tried to call 911 several times one night when high in college because I was convinced all my friends were actually actors pretending to be my real friends, lol. I also thought they had somehow moved me to a sound stage that was made up to look like my room. Weed wasn’t well regulated in the mid 90s - lord knows what I was smoking that made me that nuts.
We started watching Unbelievable on Netflix last night (yes I’m a few years behind). Watching that first episode after this past week with the Supreme Court decision and general patriarchy fuckery and I was literally screaming at the TV. Poor DH was kind of huddled in the corner of the couch afraid of my rage lol. I don’t know if I can handle this show right now.
The shit in the 90’s was no joke. When I was in high school, my BFF, her younger brother and her cousin all drove to see her older brother away at college. He and his housemates and the cousin left BFF, brother and me home to go to a party. We smoked so much weed. She was sitting on a chair as she was rolling it on the arm rest and some kept dropping on the floor. The rest of us fools were crawling around licking kk crumbs we thought for sure were the dropped weed. I don’t know wtf we smoked but I hallucinated for sure that night. I was convinced I was on a city public bus that kept lurching back and forth. I still remember that feeling so vividly now 28 years later.
Truly random: I just got back from the grocery store and paid $9 for 4 organic apples. On sale. Whereas potato chips were 5 bags/$10. We’ve been watching prices jump for awhile, but this about made me faint.

I'm seeing Weird Al tonight in concert. It's my 3rd time, and Jesse's 5th. It's his birthday gift, so we sprung for VIP with a meet & greet. Don't be too jelly that I get to meet Weird Al.

My local grocery store has been good about sending paper coupons lately. My last two grocery trips I’ve saved 20% on my order. I have a $15 off $100 and $17 off $170 that I can use on my next trip. This is literally the only thing keeping my grocery spending in check right now. And even with those coupons, it’s still higher than I used to budget for.
18-year-old me smoking brickweed that still smelled and tasted like the dryer sheets it was packed in and then going back to my dorm room and eating Ritz bits and Slim Jim’s would be sobbing in joy right now.

Same. We’re stacking coupons, primarily shopping at Aldi, Farmer’s markets, etc. Our bill is easily 50% higher than it was a year ago.
I think it’s all events of the week. The apples are not the problem, but sent me over the edge with the other stuff.

DS was cranky this morning. We sent him to school since he wasn’t visibly ill. I thought it was his anxiety with it being the last week. He came home and went right to sleep. He got up around 7. He is running a low grade fever and being a unbearable. We leave for vacation on Sunday. Fingers crossed it’s a fluke or a cold. To my knowledge he has not been exposed to Covid. He will be home the rest of the week as precaution.

We got a week worth of groceries for the price we typically pay for two weeks. Of course this is the week the kids are bottomless pits and have eaten almost everything we got on Sat. 🥴

OMG the dryer sheet nostalgia!
I used to pack old toilet paper rolls with dryer sheets and smoke in MY BEDROOM. The universe is cackling knowing that I, too, will have a teenager one day. 🙃ðŸ˜
Ok douche, go ahead and call it mud. My husband DID have halitosis. We addressed it after I talked to you girls on here and guess what? Years later, no problem. Mofongo, you're a cunt. Eat shit. ~anonnamus

The stores can code each item for whatever category(it’s) they fit. They do that for fruits, veggies, WIC, taxable, non taxable, etc etc etc.
So, whenever you scan your HSA or FSA card (or your WIC card here), it only applies those funds to items that are eligible at that store. Most large stores are up to date with the current federal allowances.
