New Printer and Shops
As I blogged about before, my stepmom and dad gave me a laser jet printer. The new drum and cartridge came in the mail and I got it all hooked up yesterday. I tested it and all was well. I started printing today and was having issues with some blank pages. I thought it might be the printer, but I decided to exit out of Goggle Chrome and just go through my Internet Explorer and print. Well, that fixed the problem.
I printed 21 shops that were 13 pages each, that made for almost 300 pages! I am going to try to keep track of how many pages I can get out of one cartridge. Each cartridge is only $18....thanks to my stepmom who sent me a link for a company that has inexpensive toner! I want to see how long the cartridge lasts me and then order either one or two for my next order! The website said it should last for 6,000 page so we shall see.
I should definitely save some money though, because I only got about 200 pages for a $16 HP inkjet cartridge! I don't really have to do the math to know I'll save some money. Even with $10 on shipping and handling, I am still paying a lot less per page!
I had a busy weekend with shops and got $15 worth of gas that I'll get reimbursed for. Tonight was the first night I have cooked dinner since last Tuesday. We had four nights of dinner shops and two of those fed all four of us. The other two nights fed two of us! We even got to go to a nice sit down restaurant last night and eat! Tomorrow night's dinner will be a mystery shop too and will feed all of us! I am going to enjoy that because I have doctor's appointments for both boys tomorrow afternoon and they can go three or four hours. The appointment is at 1:30 so hopefully we will be done by 4:30 at the latest and I won't want to cook!
