The White Stuff does mail to the U.S. but the advent calendar isnβt listed, maybe because itβs sold out.

However, it didn't save me from driving to the doc's office later in the day to get tested (for everything under the sun) while sitting in my car. On the other hand, within 10 minutes of leaving, I got a call to tell me I had strep! Started antibiotics that night. Though how I got strep is a mystery as I hadn't left the house or been around anyone but DH (who goes out to work) in the previous 10 days. So I blamed him! Of course, he feels fine. :) Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587652444835060129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501869780961229827.post-64772892580971100542021-12-10T14:54:17.993+00:002021-12-10T14:54:17.993+00:00Haha ...

So if I had any sense, I would buy up a bunch of it when it is on sale since it would last a couple years! But then I worry that if I get sick and die, I would have just wasted all of that money on tuna fish that I will never get to eat! <br />You have been so much better at planning ahead and saving money than I have ever been! :)<br />Ellen D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03776803182673252265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501869780961229827.post-66414543704640959752021-12-10T14:28:09.708+00:002021-12-10T14:28:09.708+00:00We must be really fortunate, we don't seem to ...We must be really fortunate, we don't seem to have much trouble at all getting through to our surgery, don't think we've ever had to wait more than a minute or 2 in a queue. And both of us have had face to face appointments offered (and gladly accepted). I guess that's the beauty of living in a fairly rural area, rather than a big hugely populated town.
