I went to Goodwill this morning to see if they still had two upholstered chairs we saw there Wednesday night. The chairs were there and I bought them for $9 each. I had watched a video on detecting bedbugs and educated myself on that before committing to these chairs.
I was surprised, actually, that they were still available this morning. They are in nice shape and although not expensive, they look better than typical thrift store chairs.
I spent quite a lot of time shopping there this morning. I am looking for household goods for our weekend house, but I dont want to fill the house with crap so I am carefully considering the absolute basics we need.
The store was very busy and it had lots of merchandise. Given how busy it was, I put anything in which I had interest in my cart. At the end, I culled stuff and removed a crockpot and a big floor basket, deciding tnat they were too cheaply made. i will wait for better quality items.
This afternoon we returned to pick up the chairs and lo and behold, that crockpot was gone and so was that basket. I dont regret not getting them, but dang, that was fast!
I wonder if January is a time when everyone cleans out stuff from their homes.
