More Provision!

Look what I got in the mail today: A box from amazon.com containing my first swagbucks-funded purchase:

A lovely, shiny, copper-bottomed, 12-inch frying pan. Another one of my "wants" provided - for basically free. I even qualified for amazon's "super saver shipping" and didn't have to pay to have this mailed to me.

Why a frying pan? Oh, the better to whack my husband over the head with ... no, seriously, we had an old, old frying pan with Teflon coating that we've had at least 10 years now. In the last few years, the Teflon coating has gotten scratched, and we've probably been ingesting low doses of Teflon each time I used the pan. I looked at stainless pans a lot - but somehow even the $20 ones at Walmart seemed like a splurge on something that we didn't "need" (unless you google the effects of Teflon ingestion, which might impair one's health!). BUT with my swagbuck accumulation of the last 2 months, I was able to purchase this one free & clear. It's from T-fal, so while it isn't gourmet quality, I think it is satisfactory for the limited cooking I know to do - and may inspire me to keep on trying to cook at home. :)

I just cashed out for $10 more worth of amazon gift cards on the 17th ... and am half way to yet another $5 any day now if I continue to use my swagbucks toolbar and check their blog for codes and such. Swagbucks work, my friend! I was skeptical - very skeptical - but now that I've reaped the benefits, I am excited about funding more "wants" for me and my family this way! :)
