    Awesome job Alpha!! You should start an 'extreme couponing' type of thread! That was well done!

    I've got a pic up in weapons already, but I bought an M&P 22 today. I want to ramp up my range time and it seemed a good choice for that. I think I may get both steel bb and air soft versions next.

    Had a coupon for Dollar General for $5. off for every $25. you spend (use every Saturday only). Our DG store here is the new combo small grocery store-general store. So, yesterday, we picked up 6 ea. one pound canned hams (11/2019 use by date) to add to the medium term inventory. Also, picked up 10 ea., 5 oz cans of chunked ham also with the same use by date. We use the chunked ham all the time when cooking omelets or to throw in mac and cheese or even a tossed salad.

    We do this every other week and makes it painless money wise, and really builds up the inventory.

    Also, picked up some 556 for .29 each from a buddy.

    Nothing financial, but given our unnaturally warm spring, I've got most of my raised gardens ready to go, and have started cleanup on my yard.

    Lil'Bravo and I went and tested several of my reloads I havent gotten to do since all the snow.

    I found the "happy spot" for both .45 and .40 with ETR7 powder, I also identified the charge with 40 at which I am seeing early signs of over pressure on the primer.

    Will be posting a video later tonight.

    Planted a goji berry, and 3 Nanking cherries today so far. Going back out to plant 1 of the 2 elderberries I need, and 1 of the honey berry plants. I've got raspberries and more honey berry on order, and I've got to find one more elderberry. Got several herbs to fill a spot in the herb bed by the back door, and worked a little more on the garden today.

    I pit a kel tec ksg on layaway. It's the only thing from the brand I like. A shotty has many uses, a 26" one with 14 shells has more. Now for the funding it....... I figured I needed a good gun for my sustainment bag, I've got rifles and pistols but not a good all around tool.

    I killed 12 roosters, and 7 ducks and canned them all. Ended up with about 30 jars of food. Got about 50 broilers to kill next week, and 50 more in a month or so. Half will go in the freezer the other half will get canned. Planted lots of peppers, cucumbers, squash, zucchini, and so on. About to slaughter about 80 rabbits, half will go in the freezer the other half will get canned. I have 24 blueberry plants and they are full of flowers, can't wait.

    Picked up some Blackberries, Raspberry and Fig plants. Planted our taters and Stuttgarter onions. Started lettuce, cabbage and leeks.

    AK, check out Starks.com for the Edlerberry, honey berry, and goji's.
