What did you buy this week?

[ultrarunner]

I have a set of Big O Tires back when warranted forever as long as minimum tread depth…

About 42 years old now and still have nubs on the tires… VW Thing

Always a big fan of lifetime warranties and for a time just about everyone was offering… from batteries to mufflers…

With me owning some cars more than 50 years it’s the gift that keeps giving.

I bought a new deer feeder and a pallet of corn.

Now that is illegal in VT. And many other states as well.

Strangely, it is NOT illegal to plant a "deer plot" of food with the intention of attracting deer for hunting...

But you can feed the squirrels and birds, with the same warning any deer daring to eat the squirrels feed can be shoot.

Technically, we are required if baiting, to bait continuously for 6 months. All that excludes the CWD zone, where baiting is banned as is baiting on public lands.

Do my prize rose bushes count as baiting???

Even our gas stations generally get a pallet or two of deer corn in, for sale in late august-december. I buy regular whole corn, cracked corn, or even scratch feed depending on the prices. Deer dont care if the bag is orange with a buck silhouette, or a white F-R-M bag.

On nice thing with scratch feed or 3-way scratch, the wheat and millet will spout and also provide food.

When we were up in Minnesota and Wisconsin a couple weeks ago there were pallets of bags of deer apples at most gas stations.
