Welcome to my Covid Awareness & Support blog
What I did when I realized I didn't have my hand wipes or hand sanitizer on me to still protect myself

Recently, I had gone out and realized I didn't have my hand wipes or hand sanitizer on me (rare). Instead of going back home (I was out doing timed supplemental income opportunities at stores), at one of the stores, I grabbed some free Purell hand wipes that they have in front of some stores. I put the hand wipes in a free umbrella plastic bag (that are offered in front of Total Wine & More's Puyallup location) and tied it in a loose but tight enough knot so I could open again to keep the wipes moist (they will dry out if you don't keep them in a sealed container). I photographed below what I just discussed for a visual. Now when I touch public surfaces (i.e. refrigerator doors at grocery stores, pin pads at check-out machines, etc.) I can safely.
Did you know taking 2-500 mg Vitamin C tablets equates 1,000 mg?

Shortly after Covid hit, I was at Rite Aid wanting to purchase a 1,000 mg of Vitamin C. (This was one of the recommendations to prevent Covid to take 1,000 mg of Vitamin C daily). One of the customers in the store snatched the last one so I had the next best thing (photographed below) which was 500 mg of Vitamin C. I had asked the cashier if taking 2-500 mg tablets would equte 1,000 mg. She didn't know so she told me to ask the pharmacy and I did. And yes, taking 2-500 mg tablets would equate to 1,000 mg of Vitamin C.

CVS has the BELOW photographed hand wipes in their store for $2.09 regular price BEFORE tax and other coupons/discounts you may have. (Recall hand wipes are what you should be using in between washing your hands with regular soap and water AND for when touching commonly touched surfaces, specifically in public such as: debit/credit card terminals in stores, doors, and shopping carts to prevent obtaining Covid).

When I was at Fred Meyer's front inside entrance where the shopping carts are before entering the store this past Friday night, I smiled at an older white woman who was leaving. I had on my usual maximum protection re-usable mask with filters (my first mask I got when Covid first hit over 5 years ago) and she smiled and came by to chat with me on her way out. She had no mask on, but told me that if she wore her mask that would be her plan to rob the store because nobody would recognize her (she was joking). She then proceeded to tell how that when she wore her mask the last time she was at Fred Meyer, a couple of people said "Hi" and greeted her by name and recognized her so, there went that plan. I think you'd have to wear more like these types of masks (shown above) to ro...

As I mentioned in one of my past blog posts, this Covid test can be found on sale at Albertsons grocery store for $9.99 (which is one of the most inexpensive Covid tests I've found in stores). Recently, when I checked to see the expiration date for my Covid test, it read 9-26-25, but I found through Google AI that this specific Covid test is good up to 24 months past the expiration date (I was sure to write that on my Covid test for reference). The expiration date is printed on the side TOP of the box (as shown in photograph below):

I bought this today, (Mon. 9/22/25) at Costco to have "just in case" (chicken soup is great for when you get sick: colds, flus, or Covid). It was $6 off ($7.99 total with tax) regularly $13.99 for 8 cans. Below is a photo of the specs for this healthy and tasty chicken soup Remember when Covid hit for the first time and everyone was stocking up on things? Well, the only thing I stocked up on was chicken soup during that time. Did anyone else do that, too or did you stock up on other things? Comment publicly to this post your answers.
