Thought this may be interesting.  Ceiling light with fan. Can be used, just light or just fan, or both.
3 light settings, 3 speeds.

Did anyone buy anything during Black Friday? I bought a pair of shoes. 😁 DH bought a big TV🙄

Your fan/light looks good Chookie.

Yes. We bought a heat pump clothes dryer. Saved $400. They are going to install it and take away old dryer. 
CC, nice buying.

Cool fan Chookie (see what I did there)  ;D

Yes Cornish, I bought an Oroton tote in Indigo.  Have been on the look out for a dark navy bag for so long but could only find a mid blue which isn't what I wanted.  I ordered it early yesterday morning and got it for $129 ($140 saving).  I now see it's selling for $161  :o

And (don't laugh), I ordered a SodaStream for me  ;D I drink 2-3 litres spring water every day and just recently I've been jazzing it up by having a few glasses of soda water with sliced fruit added.  Have found it so refreshing for a change. 

I liked this one as it uses glass not plastic bottles.  Will be an alternative now and then instead of just normal spring water. I also ordered 2 more of the glass bottles.  ;D
Not interested in using the syrups you can buy to make soft drinks as I haven't had soft drink for about 9 or 10 years now.  :D

Julie love the idea of the glass bottles. We have had Soda Stream machine for years.  We also don’t buy he flavours and just drink it plain.

We also have a sofa stream and love it. Occasionally I will add a squirt of lemon or lime juice, r just a slice.
I stocked up on some skin care that I was low on. 20% off was too good to resist. I also bought a linen top. I have mainly nice 5 shirts for wearing with jeans or casual slacks. Now I have this too. I try to wear different ops to each months coffee runs.  I’m sure no one notices- it’s just me.

Chookie that light looks great I’m going to see if DH will get on for us . Gosh you have all done well with Black Friday shopping. What is a heat pump clothes dryer Chookie? We have a Soda stream and only use it for sparking water too .

K ATIE, the heat pump reuses the hot air and doesn’t blow it into the room. Also either collects the water from the clothes into a container or through a plastic pipe into sink. Has lots of programs.  Probably won’t use them.
I think the upright freezer , Westinghouse, we bought is the same as yours. I removed the ice try as we have an ice making machine.
Julie, love your bag.

CC, you will love it.  We also have a large SMART TV.  Too smart for us.
Hope you are coping ok with this rotten virus. Thinking of you. 
We were going to Daylesford on Monday with GD driving.  They have discovered the virus in the sewage so won’t be going.  Will go somewhere else.

We got our solar panels and (very large and heavy!) battery in on Wednesday.  Not connected to the grid yet, we have to wait for the inspector to clear it.

Sounds good Marina. I now do all my baking, dish washing and clothes washing, at no cost because of the Solar panels.

Solar panels are fantastic. Marina, you mentioned batteries. Does that mean you will be able to store the power you generate? We are beginning to think along those lines.
