As a mother of 3 girls with ADD you made me laugh when you would say I’m going to put blinders on and the next sentence was oh look at the outdoor furniture! Love you being you!

[@madeleinekolar4772]

If you put a banana and a hard avocado in a brown bag it will be ripe the next day. Now I don’t have mishaps.

[@natashiaredman7438]

My husband, my daughter and myself all have ADHD and our shopping trips are very entertaining because we’re constantly getting distracted 😂

[@penelopepittstopP]

🤣I was in my kitchen listening to this in the background LMAO literally!~ It is the Dori moments that are just too entertaining. Love it.

[@loiscamacho2205]

Yes she’s so sweet and funny, I have seen comments about her forgetfulness or sometimes being clumsy and to that I say knock it off. She’s so real, kind and so thoughtful I really enjoy her videos. I don’t know about you but I am clumsy and forgetful, to which I say those are things that make us human ♥️

[@wendyrotchstein98]

I like how comfortable you are out in public with your video camera just talking to us. That is definitely something I'd never be able to do. I like too that I'm not the only one who gets distracted in stores but I usually put those items in my cart. Hobby lobby is my huge weakness, I can go in for a bottle of glue and walk out with over a hundred dollars worth of stuff lol. Blinders don't help me there....

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

Grow a little herb garden in the wonderful light of your kitchen. Maybe 1 plant of basil, 1 parsley? Another fun thing to do is save room for a few single bulbs(tulips, daffodils, etc), then a lovely surprise full of beauty and fragrance comes along in time for spring amongst your herbs. And a welcome arrival to bring joy!

[@izholmes]

Becky! Next time you forget a pen you can fold your paper through the items you get. It creates a folded strike through the item and you don’t have to mess with a pen.

[@LeonardSmith-bj6ud]

You look beautiful😍 if you don't mind me saying I'm Leonard Smith ☺ if I may ask where are you from?

[@pejisan]

That’s genius!!

[@caseymae8194]

We always need to be aware of our surroundings no matter how safe of an area we are in. We’re told to lock our car doors the minute we get in. Love watching Becky discuss her shopping experience but please lock your doors first. Good habit to have.

[@fufu889]

I wanted to say this too-please pay attention to surroundings! As women we have to, sadly!

[@zyzzyvette]

You have no idea how safe or unsafe that area is, do you? Not every woman in the world has to or wants to live in fear 24/7.

[@Julie-ci9ve]

Hi! I hate shopping, so why is it so entertaining to watch you do it? 😂 It weirds me out sometimes that you are the only one I would watch no matter what. You could have a video where we are watching paint dry together, and we'd all be there for it.

[@elvinaditzel414]

OMG, same. Both my husband & I hate shopping, so we keep getting our groceries delivered. We tip the shopper well, support the economy & save ourselves tons of time, annoyance, stress & end up ordering only what we need. So, win/win. But for some bizarre reason I just LOVE watching Becky shop every single time. I get so much vicarious enjoyment from her shopping hauls, so you are definitely not alone! 😀

[@rosemaryogilvie6842]

Same here! Shopping to me is a form of modern-day torture, so never imagined I’d enjoy watching someone else doing it!

[@wendyrotchstein98]

Lol that's funny and so true.

[@pepperwillis4090]

I don’t mind shopping. It’s good exercise. But it’s so much more fun with Becky’s cheerful voice in the background!

[@KitchenWitch423]

This!! I can’t watch a full show of ANYTHING else!

[@mkfurr60]

I happened to stumble across your channel and immediately thought Becky is wonderful. I immediately subscribed. I have gone back and watched most of your videos. Congratulations to both of you!

[@arianatigue3223]

As someone who just bulk prepped 60+ English Muffin breakfast sandwiches, the cinnamon raisin is so good with breakfast sausage!

[@plimbea8448]

Ooh yes! Bonus points if you use maple breakfast meat or even drizzle honey on it!

[@kinkycurlfriend4471]

Becky, you are a constant source of entertainment, don’t ever change! 😊

[@lesliesmith7312]

As a Michigan Native I can say it's definitely easier to clear the snow every six inches of snow fall instead of letting it turn into a massive three foot pack before trying to clear it. You can get a good snow plow attachment for your UTV

[@JYYB]

Yup!!!! We do that here in Wisconsin too! Might be annoying to others but in the end we arnt stuck.

[@jojoply]

We have not even had a flurry. It’s sad. I really wanted to see snow this year.

[@sura-quayarbon6055]

Here in the NW United States we have been getting dumps with extreme winds during the storms so the six inch rule really isn't feasible. The storms we have in the Rocky Mountains and where she lives in Washington are different than winters elsewhere (not saying worse or easier, just different - I have lived where she lives and I live now in the Rocky Mountains). We will plow and before I have put the equipment away it's already back. You would end up continuously plowing. This winter has been harder just because of the sheer number of storms. I still have 4-6 feet on my property, and I have snow falling right now. We normally have snow on the ground 5-6 months out of the year but it's so much more.

[@jackieburnett6881]

That’s sounds really bad for y’all!! Hope it gets better

[@Casey_12735]

Thank you for having your channel, after losing my mom 10 years ago, no siblings and mother in law is nonexistent, you are like a virtual big sister to me that I look up to 💕 I know this was t the purpose for your channel but I wanted to take a moment to let you know the other impacts you’ve had! God Bless

[@AztecblondieRN]

How many anniversaries do you and Josh have? 😂 I have seen at least 6 weeks of vlogs/videos of yours mentioning your anniversary. Are we that far behind?

[@susanfreemantle2876]

You can use a hair dryer to gently heat price tags and they can be easily pealed off with out doing any damage to your item . Love watching!

[@blaquemoonmajesty33]

Touché. Thank you ❤

[@quz908]

The cinnamon raisin English muffin sounds like a Mcgriddle to me.

[@JH-fy7ef]

The dish washer also works very well for sticker removal.

[@frugaldeb]

Goo gone works awesome

[@AmyLovesOldStuff]

I use WD40 To wipe my sticker prices off.

[@DLEE012]

Pothos are super easy and grow like monsters! You can cut from the ends and propogate them in water whenever it grows too long. You can even just keep them in water after propagating! They don’t need soil to survive but I wouldn’t put a pothos that was in soil in water. I just set a repeating calendar alert to water my plants once a week. Succulents are great if you’re bad at watering. Overwatering is the most common killer for any cactus type plants. There are plenty of succulents that don’t have spikes (thinking of baby A when he starts running around)

[@blessed4737]

I agree,pothos are the easiest houseplant!😊

[@lauriesmith7517]

Also toxic, sadly.

[@spontaneousun]

Pothos is fantastic. I had a health issue and left mine in a dark room with out water for 4-6 weeks. It survived! Very little to no issues in terms of leaves yellowing or dropping either. A little trickier (just needs more light) is Pilea. It is fantastic at making babies if you leave it in a spot you love and also can easily go a week or so at a clip without water if you have it in a good spot.

[@tibbs4000]

Pothos is a great one! Near impossible to kill. If worried about the dogs or baby you can put it up high on top of a cabinet or shelf.

[@moshrefn]

ZZ plants are easy to take care too.

[@ElisabethA-gq4cn]

Some houseplants that are easy to keep happy are generally pothos, like golden pothos and marbled queen pothos (They are regular hanging or climbing houseplants). The ZZ plant is also a great altenative, as it stores water in its rootbulbs, it is one of those plants that almost thrives being neglected. The monstera family is also a common and good choice, and it has beautiful foliage. Keep in mind that those in the monstera family that are varigated like the thai constellation and albo variegata can be quite expensive as they are trendy in the plant community! I also reccomend coleus, as there is a plethra of choices for colorful foliage:)

[@karenthomas1456]

Also jade plants, known as money trees and pilea, aka pancake plants are both great.

[@ElisabethA-gq4cn]

@@karenthomas1456 oh yes, ^^ this!!

[@tiffanymaxim9328]

Snake plants (sansavaria) and spider plants are also easy. ❤ I agree on the pothos as well!! 😊

[@cheryltaylor2879]

Ft ft ft

[@imanjoseph612]

Becky, when I’ve been in the grocery store without a pen, I tore little notches along the edge of the paper to indicate which item I placed in my cart. It’s a successful way for me to know what’s left to buy.

[@beckym5730]

They make great grocery list app you can put on your phone it checks it off has you go.

[@victoria..9924]

Houseplant lover here!, A very easy plant is a 'snake plant' (Dracaena trifasciata) doesn't need lots of water, but needs some indirect sunlight and can survive being neglected. Peace lily can survive in lower light but likes to be watered often. Another easy plant is a ZZ plant- just like the snake plant- needs some sunlight, not much water. Depending on humidity and warmth in your house- plants can dry out quicker if warmer. Hope this helps :)

[@The.Bees.Knees.]

I second this plus I live in your area and only water mine every few months. I would also recommend a peace lily. They tell you when they need water.

[@TheAshesvondust]

Peace Lily is toxic to dogs, though

[@toolsoffantasy]

While I agree on the snake plant and zz plant, I wouldn't recommend a peace lily for someone with pets who isnt able to keep a consistent eye on them! It would probably be fine on a counter since she only has dogs, and theyre not generally as dangerous for dogs as for cats, but after a $2k vet bill and a near miss on kidney failure for my cat due to not knowing about lily toxicity, I really like to make sure people know to avoid them if they're not sure that they can keep it out of their pets' reach.

[@bclrh2o]

My snake plant was the first houseplant I was able to keep alive and now I have a whole jungle, I learned so much from taking care of that plant 😊

[@DTQueen90]

Unfortunately the snake plant is also toxic to dogs. However, Spider plants, boston ferns, Zebra Haworthia, Calathea Medallion and Rattlesnake, and the Cast Iron plant are all low-maintenance, pet-friendly options :)

[@margarethuffman1961]

Your videography skills are great Becky! Thanks for taking the time to move the cameras around and show us everything.

[@KaryHancock]

As an avid gardener myself, I laugh when you say you are putting your blinders on when looking at seeds. I cannot pass by a seed display without picking up at least one package. I love you being your authentic self. You always put a smile on my face.

[@wendykelcey1246]

Why is watching someone shop and spend money so much fun and relaxing? 😂😂😂

[@QueenAbiAnkh]

I feel so seen by Becky I have the exact same conversations with myself when I'm grocery shopping 🤣😍

[@nancypatterson374]

Becky, I love shopping with you! I didn’t spend a penny, but had lots of fun. You just have the personality to cheer up everyone, hugs from South Carolina 🌴❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@esthergraham1353]

You are right. I hate grocery shopping but Becky is so much fun to shop with.

[@erikamitchell8502]

I have said this before but it’s worth saying again, I really appreciate that you don’t cut out the accidents or brain fart moments. You don’t try to come across as perfect like some others on KZbin and it totally endears you to me. Thanks for showing the real you to us you are brilliant, goofy and perfectly imperfect. Much love from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@jennis2pennies748]

I 100% forgot to bring a pen along with me for my thanksgiving dinner shopping. So while in the store I grabbed a pen off the shelf and used it and paid for it at the checkout. 😮 thankfully the cashier fully understood.

[@LeonardSmith-bj6ud]

You look beautiful😍 if you don't mind me saying I'm Leonard Smith ☺ if I may ask where are you from?

[@sarahslovely08]

Becky almost falling and giving everyone heart in stomach. So thankful you were able to get out and get stuff done.

[@kevshellp]

Yeap.... I GASPED!! Hope she did pull anything :/

[@Heidishereandthere]

Thank God she didnt have the tiny human in that death sling! 😮 Imagine that one; if she fell! 🤭 Not pretty! 😢

[@kaleigh4081]

It was so much fun shopping with you, Becky! I love seeing different grocery stores. And your "inner conversation" is just like mine - "get back on track", "that's not what we're here for".... I'm like a squirrel sometimes. 😂

[@jessicaoliverodasilva87]

Hi Becky, I saw that you were interested in the Trofie pasta, it's a regional pasta from Liguria here in Italy and it's pretty easy to do at home 😊 we usually eat it with pesto or pesto with potatoes and green beans. Have a nice day and lots of love to you and your family ❤

[@sueayres6139]

I’m SO glad you don’t edit out stuff like - forgetting things! 😂 Love your channel Becky!!!

[@kellycrowl1500]

I thoroughly enjoyed shopping with you & I would be the same after not getting out for a “retail fix” in a while! Your self talk of “stay focused” made me truly laugh out loud 😂every time you reminded yourself! Becky, you are a real gem of a person! Thank you for sharing your adventure with all of us!❤

[@grammysue7355]

This was fun watching you do something totally different. Plus it was a joy to see that it made you so happy to get a few treats for yourself and Josh. 😀

[@Lonesome__Dove]

My grandpa is a MAJOR gardener. You'd be blown away by his garden. And hes had it for decades. Everything from corn and asparagus to several different types of peppers including ghost peppers. Fruit trees. Pear. Plum, apple. Cherry. He has an entire section, definitely bigger than some peoples entire garden dedicated specifically for daffodils. Then when they bloom he picks them and passes them all out to the ladies down at the restaurants he goes to. He goes daily to breakfast and lunch to different restaurants. He so smooth!

[@PensaloBien]

Hi! I don’t know if anyone’s told you already, but the weird shaped pasta you saw in trader joe’s goes with basil pesto sauce, it’s like the perfect match (they’re from my region in Italy) you should try them when you’ve got basil to harvest :)

[@lindafrazier8799]

Thanks I needed that info too!

[@AcreHomestead]

I have that in my freezer and I will make it tomorrow!

[@annmarie4794]

They must have had a good price On their eggs and everyone picked them up. I know Costco sells them in large quantities too. I personally think this chicken egg shortage is planned and ridiculous.

[@annmarie4794]

For those who buy the dishwasher or laundry detergent pods. A good friend of my son who cleans out septic tanks said these products are the worst thing they ever invented. He knows many people who had to put in a whole new septic system ($15,000) because these pods “do not break down” but CLOG up the system. My niece, unfortunately , was one of them. She’s so upset and swears to never ever buy anything that looks like a pod again. She went back to liquid detergents. Heads up for anyone or think these pods are great. Just giving people a warning and heads up.

[@Somewhereintime22]

@@annmarie4794 I stopped using them when I had to peel plastic off my clothes. I wonder if the dishwasher pods are also bad for sewer lines …still using those

[@heidipustelniak652]

I love Trader Joe’s! Such fun products! Isn’t it awful to shop when you are hungry! Yep, you are experiencing a bit of “sticker shock!” My husband started doing most the grocery shopping during 2020. Which he has continued to do. He seldom looks at prices, just if he wants it, he buys it! Not me, I constantly find myself saying “I’m not paying that amount!” So hard to stick to my list when I go to Trader Joe’s. I get so frustrated with the amount in the packages getting smaller and smaller!

[@mollybeee]

I have a Christmas cactus and an aloe vera plant. Love them both because forgetting to water is fine, they're cactus. I would also grow some herbs for cooking inside.

[@galethomas9383]

Angel Wing Begonia has been one of the easiest plants that I've had. If I water it regularly, it grows fast. If I neglect it for a while, it just grows slower. I think they are beautiful, and when they bloom, they have red flowers. At least mine does. I enjoy your videos. Thank you for keeping it real .

[@pepperwillis4090]

Snake plant and spider plants for me have been insanely forgiving. Those 2 are the ones that got me going on houseplants 100%.

[@magsstewart5488]

Re soap dispenser: I prefer leaving it in the original container. 1) helps me remember which scents/brands I like. 2) when out of my house, I appreciate knowing what’s in a soap dispenser because I’m allergic to tons of soaps.

[@teresaroubal7237]

Philodendron is a very good plant for those of us that neglect our indoor plants, very much forgiving

[@debinnashville2009]

I have this and have not killed it. Killed the peace lilly.

[@MargieM10]

It's also one of the most toxic plants for babies. Probably not a good choice for a couple of years.

[@fredazollinger6805]

A shamrock plant is easy. and near a window bright light ,they will bloom all year .water needs are easy. sometimes a little wilted- just need water..and the leaves fold up at night….can you tell I love this plant. I’ve shone over 20 years❣ Sometimes soil washes off the little root tubers ,just cover with a little more soil …& you’re good to go a few more years✔

[@09echols]

If I've eaten before shopping I buy snacks instead of food. It also means I get I'm and get out. The longest time is paying usually. Now if I'm not hungry I take my time I go through every isle. And could easily spend 30 minutes or more in the store.

[@NicholeRivera-ng8fu]

Hi Becky! The absolute best houseplant I can think of is the painted nettle. It’s also called coleus (or plectranthus scutellarioides). The leafs come in arrays of green, pink and white - they’re stunning. You’ve probably seen them as landscaping but they also make beautiful houseplants. Super easy to keep alive and you can start them from seed. Just make sure you trim once in a while because they grow like weeds!!

[@angeljenn8469]

Im in the middle of the video at the moment and i heard “morning glory” and instantly said nooooo dont do it!! Lol my mom planted morning glory in her back yard almost 18 years ago for my wedding. She is still to this day finding it growing in random places in the yard she has tried to get rid of it when is started to strangle her bougainvillea plants and her rose bushes. Its definitely beautiful but its very invasive and rambling. Those lil vines will wander alllll over the place.

[@amyrivers4093]

It must of been quite scary not being able to leave home due to weather especially with a little one. You are always so calm and positive no matter what is going on Including life's challenges. It's great that your appointment was fast and went well. Xx

I was amazed at the price of a bunch of celery, $.98! Wow! Here in Nova Scotia Canada in one local grocery store a bunch of celery was $5.99! Wal Mart has celery on sale this week for $2.97 a bunch so I bought two and chopped them up and froze them. Love your grocery shop-with-me videos, Becky! Thanks so much for everything you share with us, I look forward to your every video!

Chop the bottom root from celery and place in a shallow bowl of water in a kitchen window, when it sprouts roots put in soil like a house plant and it will grow! Endless celery 😊

Hey fellow Blue-noser! I'm in the valley 👋 I'm so envious of the US food prices! Crazy!

Becky, if you store your avocados in the fridge, they will keep for a long time without going bad 😊

[@gilliandawson6567]

I read that once you put in fridge they dont continue to ripen. Is thus true? Tks

[@mwillis7791]

@@gilliandawson6567 they will still ripen.

[@AmyLovesOldStuff]

I freeze mine. When I want one, I'll thaw it out in the fridge. My nutritionist told me to cut them out of the skin before I freeze it. I've been doing this for 6+ months, and it does work. You can cut up the frozen avocado and add to smoothies when still frozen.

[@gelwood99]

@@gilliandawson6567 We buy many at a time and always go for the hardest, as they soften on the counter to the right softness they go in the fridge to stay and they keep for quite some time on hold. I have not had any issue with them continuing to ripen so make sure they are as soft as you like them first. I got 10 the last time I bought them for $.49 at Aldi a week ago and I am now down to one.😊

Get a peace lily or two. I have managed to keep 2 alive for 4 yrs now. Stems droop when they need water so easy to keep an eye on. I've had them where stems and leaves are completely bent over and laying on floor but a good dose of water brings them right back to perfection. Easy peasy. I dont do well with plants but these are a piece of cake.

[@kristinewhritenour662]

Happy Anniversary to you and Josh ! Thanks for all the wonderful ideas and your channel.

Hi Becky! For Houseplants I can recommend Monstera, Pothos and Philodendron. There are many different kinds and they are very hardy plants. A big part of not killing houseplants is watering them correctly. Most houseplants like soil with good drainage, and then you water them thoroughly until the water is dripping out of the pot and the soil is soaked through. And then you water again when the top inch is dry, which is usually after a week or two. Some plants like Snake plants or ZZ Plants prefer for their substrate to dry out completely. Most of these plant can handle not watering them for 2-3 weeks though 😊👍🏻

[@lauriesmith7517]

All toxic, unfortunately, though the monstera and philodendron are relatively mild.

[@AcreHomestead]

Wow thank you!!

[@katewashington3337]

Snake plant id recommend survived my daughter trying to "repot " one when she was a toddler. I'd keep them higher up so dogs and in time wee one can't get to it. Aloe Vera is a hardy plant also and can be used on cuts and burns so useful aswell.

[@corrinejohnston4185]

Peace lily's are a great house plant. They tell you when they need water and they are very forgiving. I have one that is 45 years old.

[@TheAshesvondust]

Toxic to dogs though, so not good for an animal lover like Becky :)

[@nnnnopeitsmelori3073]

I’ve been subscribed for quite some time. I’ve been catching up on your videos from last year. I’ve been watching them one after the other for days. TY for your epic journey shared with all of us. I appreciate you 🙏 Congratulations to you and Josh on the birth of Baby Boy ♥️😊

[@JupiterMoon19]

Love how fun you were in this video, Becky. Your bubbly personality really came through. You’re amazing! Keep it up ❤

[@klcpca]

After being so cooped up for so long... Becky certainly had "SQUIRREL!!" on the brain!! LOL Glad you were able to get out and about for bit. For your kitchen soap dispensers.... how about the pumps that you can use on mason jars??!!! I think that would look so cute-- would match your spice jars and since you love to can.....

[@stephaniemckown7489]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@conniecouto656]

You must of had sticker shock not shopping for two months, I loved seeing your excitement going through the Produce dept

[@kathrynbynum5]

So glad you were able to get out. Loved seeing you going out shopping. 💗💗

[@michellegonthier6251]

Becky you can always schedule alarms on your phone for reminders of when to water the plants or you can use your planner. Rather digital or physical a planner is great because it allows you to write into your schedule or on the day when to water or when to let something go dry. The Christmas cactus is one that water for a schedule of three weeks then let it go dry. then after it goes dry for about a week or so you water it and it blooms. Seriously it's not that big of a deal if you miss a week of watering with succulents. Mother-in-laws tung is a tall stately looking leaf style plant that is great for low or bright light and can survive neglect. Aloe is also another good one. Still I don't think you need to worry. You will probably remember to water them when you see them.

[@trishajohnson6132]

I also love house plants but am not a very good at keeping them alive! I have had a lot of success with my ZZ plant, snake plant, and pothos! The pothos are nice because it is obvious when they need watered, and then perk right back up after you do so!

[@1incutheta]

I haven't eaten at McDonald's in years, but I remember the McGriddle thing being a sweet pankcake like thing as the bun for a breakfast sando. Those taste okay. I think a cinnamon raisin one might also be good.

[@cherilouie4608]

Becky I know this was a long time ago but you are so fun to go shopping with. You are so funny and I felt like I was right with you. I am a senior and miss shopping now. Thank you for being you

[@MayceeRaye]

This is def my comfort channel. I love the super long videos I can play while crocheting ❤️ congrats on everything you’ve done !

[@vysgiyi]

I always shop with my reusable bags. Once the bag is full it’s time for me to leave and I can’t buy anymore. But I also use public transit to get around and having to carry a bunch of bags is possible but is killer on your back and joints. Also really helps my wallet. Great haul!

[@vysgiyi]

@@pennynickels5216 nice! They’ll let you on. But if you have too much stuff good luck holding all of it on your lap if it’s crowded! But also using that bag to shop around the store you also can tell how heavy it is and if it’s manageable for the walk and the commute. I like the rolling bag idea though. I had a metal cart for groceries but getting it up stairs was a nightmare. And eventually some canned tomatoes broke it. Now I just carry everything or have them delivered if possible.

[@vysgiyi]

@@pennynickels5216 that seriously sucks. Good for you figuring it out and getting it done. ❤️❤️

I think Kubota makes a snow blade for the front. Our neighbor had one. He did our private road real quick during heavy snows.

[@lionheartfarmandgardening]

❤❤ Yay!! So glad you were finally able to get out of the house Becky!🎉 You were so excited to go that you totally forgot to eat breakfast before you left! I can totally relate! It's so nice to get out and get groceries and things you need. It's starting to warm up, spring is here! 🌱🌸 Stay safe and warm until it does! ❤❤

[@lionheartfarmandgardening]

P.S. To get labels off of jars and containers, I fill the jar with hot water and let it sit a minute or two. If it's burning hot then pour out and peel, but if it's just hot water, you can just start peeling the labels off without emptying it yet and it stays hot so you don't have to pause halfway around the jar/container and refill with hot water. If the item can't be filled, use a hairdryer or even a heater vent to warm up the label for a minute or so and it will peel right off. ❤❤

I find myself drawn to your videos, because I just love the sound of your voice! Your personality, the things you value… Kind of help me shut out the negativity of the world. Not to say your content doesn't matter lol, it does, and I've learned a lot from you, but just want you to know you bring a serenity to my day. ❤

Buy pumps for your MASON jars for the soap dispenser for the kitchen.

[@thegraymarlin]

When you do all of these awesome shots for us, like you walking through the store with your phone on the shelf, does anyone ever tell you you left your phone? If I saw a phone sitting on the shelf I would be asking everyone if they left their phone 😂

[@Name-hc4le]

I think the same thing! Like when she left it at the checkout 😂 I wonder if the cashier was like “Ma’am? Your expensive camera!” Lol

[@carolyngregory9354]

Hi everyone! Just an FYI, when buying something at Ross that is damaged ask the manager for a discount. Managers have usually offered a 10-20% discount for me.
