What's this?

Sometimes timing shines on you. Saved about $100 on a new light for the

kitchen.

The overhead light in the kitchen has been weird since we moved into this place about 4 years ago. It takes 3 bulbs, but somehow it burned out an LED.....then another. And more recently, another LED seemed to be not working, but then later in the day it was. Then it wasn't, then it would and so on and so on.

So I decided to just get a new fixture that will give off more light anyway, since I like the kitchen to be very bright. I found what I wanted online at Home Depot and used credit card reward points to get Home Depot gift cards to pay for it.

Today I go online to buy it, and it's $95 LESS than it was when I made the decision to buy it in the first place. Yay me! Glad I had to have that roughly 2 week delay.
