Personal Shopper








My swimming pool patio is in desperate need of some sprucing up.

I'm immediatly commencing, 
"Operation
Pool Area Re-fresh."

These outdoor pillows from
are part of the decor plan.


What drew me to them was the bright, golden yellow embroidered flowers
against the red/orange background
and look at the dots,
dots are where it's at.

These pillows will be perfect for the patio chairs.

Speaking of perfect, the price was not so bad either.
$4.79 each
at G.W.
(Goodwill)

The pillows were in perfect,
never been used condition.
It looked like someone purchased 
them from Pier One the day before,
decided they didn't like them,
then dropped them off at G.W.

The only reason I'm making this assumption
 is because the day after purchasing them,
I happen to drop in a Pier One store,
and there they were on display for 
$29.00 each.


I couldn't resist taking a picture after thoroughly inspecting the pillow,
 just to make sure they were exactly like mine.
I'd recognize those dots anywhere.


To continue with "Operation Pool Patio Re-Fresh"
I'm going to need a couple more items and I have  one more thing to say.



Dear Personal Shopper,

Please purchase the above items,
platform sectional, 
umbrella, 
gigantic lantern,
deliver them to my G.W. 
where I'll be waiting to transfer them into my possession, 
all at a discounted cost.

Thank you.

Now get on over to 
Coastal Charm,
say hey to Linda,
and see all of the thrifty finds,
and tell her Popcorn sent ya.

Wow, what a bargain you got on those pillows. I cannot believe somebody bought those and didn't return them instead of taking them to Goodwill. Their loss is your gain. That is so funny asking them to drop off the other things you need. You can certainly dream!
