WHAT I BUY WEDNESDAY and a GIVE AWAY

This was an accidental, impulse purchase. 
I saw it at the beauty supply place that I go to to get perms...  They had them on the counter and I looked at one.  The clerk told me all about it, so, I will tell you.

This is a glass nail file.  You use the clear end to file.  And, IT LASTS FOREVER! 
After a few times of filing my nails, you just wash it.  With water.  Then dry it and it is ready for the next time. 
I have had mine for about 4 years.  I have never broken mine.  I keep a cardboard emery board in my wallet and in my travel stuff.  Other than that, this is all I use.  I have not bought emery boards in years.
The price varies by size.  The tiny 3 in. one is $5.00.  Mine is 5 1/4 in. and is $8.00.  (They do have longer ones and other colours.)

And so is the one that I AM GIVING AWAY TODAY.
To celebrate my 200th post I am giving away something every day this week to a follower of my blog.

And the lucky winner is ...#33...Jay and Danielle!!!
Leave a comment telling me how to contact you BY SATURDAY, 7 May.


I am visiting The Thrifty Home's Party with my idea.  I appreciate her hosting.  Again :)

Tommorrow I will "random.org" a Princess Clippie (+) from BITS AND PIECES.
