I'm Still Thankful!

This is a continuation of my post last night( I'm Thankful).

Number 5:

The Basket!!!

I had been looking at these baskets since I first stepped into this Michaels over the summer. the colors were perfect for me, but I didn't want to pay $24.99. The sales and the coupons would come and go and I kept putting it off. Finally, one Tuesday night when I was there,they put them on clearance-- fall merchandise 70% off. I figured since they had so many, I could wait until payday. I didn't work that Friday and totally forgot to come back. Evidently everybody else had the same idea, because when I did go back they were all gone. ---ALL, every last one of them, every shape and size. I was soooo disappointed! And then, I was in the store last Tuesday and happened to go into the bathroom. I never go in that bathroom at Michaels, but there was my basket filled with scented pine cones. I say my basket because there were several shapes and sizes lined with this fabric, and this is the one I wanted. I asked about it tonight and they sold it to me at the 70% off price. I am very thankful and happy about that right now.

Either you totally lucked out, or someone is really smiling down on you, Miss Jones!!! I'm totally surprised they didn't just give it to you for FREE!!
