I was in a thrift shop recently and saw a table cloth I really liked. The sign on the window indicated that items with a red dot were 1/2 price. The tablecloth was $5.00 and had a red dot. The cashier was color blind I guess. She said the dot was orange. So, I didn't buy the table cloth. But I just kept thinking I should have bought it. Friday on my lunch hour I decided I would go in and if they still had it, I would buy it, It was still there. Friday, the color for half price items was yellow. The tablecloth was still marked with the red dot so I figured I would pay the full $5.00 price. I took it to the cashier and she rang it up at 1/2 price, $2.50. Whoo-hoo!!! Guess it just depends on the mood of the cashier. :) Maybe the color of the day doesn't really matter???? Whatever the reason I got it and for the price I wanted to pay!!
Isn't it pretty? It had no stains or anything wrong with it. A great buy!
See how it matches the rug? I bought the rug several years ago from a consignment shop for $40.00. It is really well made.
The other day, I changed the center piece on the dining room table from the silver service to this floral arrangement. It is also a consignment purchase for $20.00 a couple of years ago.
