It Had My Cite On It For A Month!

Do yous similar a skillful treasure hunt story? I dear knowing the details behind a skillful thrift purchase. If yous don't, I'll regard yous tomorrow. :)

I'll endeavor to brand a long even out shorter. I was out thrifting sometime some New Year's. I saw this chair in addition to idea it was interesting. The cost was smudged, but it looked similar it said $160.98 (everything at this shop is 1/2 of what it's marked, but still...$80? at a thrift store? No.). I asked a worker most it in addition to he basically said, "Yeah, that's what it looks like, nosotros unremarkably don't cost things that high. We'll produce markdowns inward a few weeks." I left knowing that no ane would move beating downwardly the door for that one.

When I experience similar I'm going out on a limb (for me) a lilliputian bit, I similar to bounce things off of my sister. I texted her the moving-picture exhibit in addition to she idea it was cool. The side yesteryear side twenty-four hr catamenia she opened her Better Homes in addition to Gardens in addition to saw this...

I dear confirmation similar that!

About a calendar week after I went dorsum in addition to the cost was VERY clearly marked $160.98. And, I left again. I went dorsum a fleck after in addition to the chair said "SOLD" alongside someone's lift on it. What?

My sis visited the same shop a few days after in addition to the chair was yet sitting there. She asked most it in addition to they only said, "Yes, it's sold."

The side yesteryear side fourth dimension I went in, the chair was still sitting there. I asked most it in addition to said I'd actually similar to purchase it. They said "Oh, that's Dave's chair. He's supposed to pick it upward on Sunday." Ok, in addition to thus they knew they guy that bought it, in addition to belike sold it to him for similar $20. At to the lowest degree that's what I imagined.

I yet couldn't larn the chair out of my mind, in addition to thus on Saturday, most a calendar week after than the terminal fourth dimension I saw it, inward the middle of this,

I was driving yesteryear that shop to larn pick upward my missy from my parents' house. She spent the black to avoid the motley crew of boys that took over our domicile for the weekend. (We loved it!) Thankfully, the entirely casualties of the weekend were my newspaper whites...victims of a slowly black pillow fight. That's o.k., they were on their terminal leg anyway. I don't know how they missed, but I'm only glad they didn't larn ane of my favorite lamps!

OK, dorsum from that rabbit trail! Sooooo, since I was driving correct yesteryear it, I couldn't resist swinging inward to banking concern fit on MY chair. And lo in addition to behold, it was there, alongside the "SOLD" wiped off, in addition to a reasonable cost on it ($89, which would arrive $45.) I had hoped to larn it for a lilliputian less, but at this betoken I almost threw my coin at them in addition to carted it out. two people commented on it on the agency out... "What a cool chair" in addition to "I wishing I would accept seen that!"

It's actually sturdy in addition to inward skillful shape. All it needs is a topographic point cusion, which should move unproblematic enough. I accept the perfect lilliputian corner of my living room where I needed something after the Christmas tree moved out. Over the terminal calendar month of pining for this chair, I came across some nifty inspiration photos.
