Don't know which of those 2 detergents would be better,,, maybe A&H?

I just have to say I really like A&H. IMO, I know not many agree, but I think its every bit as good as other brands, except Persil. I love that brand!
Anyway, it's way above Xtra and some others

I know you posted this a while ago but for paper goods like TP and PT I usually use Staples Rewards . . . there is a minimum spend on ink every 3 months to be able to turn in 10 cartridges a month and earn $20 in Rewards. We are premier members so we can turn in 20 cartridges a month and earn $40 back. My husband is a teacher and we spend a nice chunk of change there -- especially during the height of the pandemic and when he was teaching from home. I purchase empty ink cartridges in bulk to turn in -- the more you buy the less each cartridge costs out of actual pocket. I can combine the rewards with coupons so when I place an actual order the out-of-pocket is usually a dollar or less.
We belong to BJs which is like Costco. The prices there are OK but not deal-worthy. Shoprite our supermarket of choice has a store brand that goes on sale but they are super thin.
The last time I really needed paper towels, Walgreens had a sale plus a coupon to use on a pickup order. Again, not stellar but better than the regular price.
I recently stocked up on PT and TP from Staples and they are in the same closet with the tampons I bought a few months ago at Walgreens on clearance with Register Rewards popping out . . . So as I just shared on another thread that closet smells a bit like a dainty flowery brothel.

I try to do my qualifying ink purchase a couple of days before the end of a month, then do the recycling for that month. For example, my last purchase was near the end of December 2020. It allowed me to recycle for seven months, December through June 2021. I'll do my next qualifying ink purchase near the end of July 2021 and it will allow me to recycle through January 2022 (another seven months).
While Office Depot is now more convenient to me, and I do ink cartridge recycling there as well, the Staples program has free shipping, which is pretty awesome.

We no longer have Office Depot or Max here but there are several Staples stores and the one by the house while a smaller store is very convenient. A major plus for me with Staples is converting coupons good for instore only purchases can be used online if you place the order in the kiosk . . .
So about once a month I get a coupon on my instore purchase good for $10 off $20 in-store only. I figure out what I want to buy online and put it in my cart on the Staples website. I go to the store and sign in to my account at the kiosk and proceed to checkout. I select pay at the register and a receipt pops out. I go to the register and give them that receipt and show them the code for the coupon and POOF it comes off. As an added plus I can add anything I find in store . . . So let's say I have $15 worth of items in my cart and I want to pick up $5 worth of cleaning wipes they can combine the purchases to meet the $20 threshold to use the coupon. The items from online are shipped to me for free and are usually arrive the next day.
I JUST picked up Ziploc containers there in fact . . . They have the tall cylinder ones in the store my husband uses in his classroom. They used to have the small rounds I would pick up at Target after Christmas (with no decorations) but they don't seem to carry those anymore in-store or online.
Also, Staples will price match in-store. I have even price matched to the Staples website when the prices online are cheaper than in-store. I have never done this with an item that I am purchasing through the kiosk because you can't combine a coupon and a price match . . . But for instance the labels I use for my printer were $40+ in the store. Sometimes they were $17 on Amazon (sold and shipped by Amazon) and I could price match that. Staples online also has them for around $20. Depending on who was cheaper if I needed labels I will price match them and earn rewards back.
Unfortunately, they are no longer carrying the labels in the store. I liked being able to grab them so I try to plan better now . . . The positive of this that while Amazon is often a few dollars less I can put the labels in my cart, I do not need to do a price match and then I can have the coupon applied.
Can any of you tech saavy people tell us whether we need to be concerned about this for home users/printers??
Read this a few times, and can't figure out if its only business servers or everyone who prints is vulneralble. No patch available yet..
I'm afraid to print anything!!!

Its odd that this has not been all over the news. THey talk about all the recent Hacks to businesses for Ransom, but nothing on this. I just happened across it as another headline/story to read when I was reading something else.

I think the lack of publicity may actually have been people behaving responsibly during the time there wasn't much the average home user could do about it.

Overnight, I finally figured out how to find my update history, etc. It showed update available, same KB number as in your post. After I was done with my reading , I did click "Install Now"
(after making a note of all the tabs I had open in case I lost them) Weird, immediately it showed " Installing 45%",, then 100%. Few minutes later showed 21%. I let it go, and now it shows "Pending Restart". I'll restart it later after I'm done using computer.
Thanks for all your help/info!
