I always love going to our local Good Will Store on Wednesdays because of Senior discounts of 25% off.

Today as usual I was looking for material and I found two big bags full. As I looked through the plastic bags I saw the rolls of material had been marked as if they had been items in a garage sale. On masking tape it stated the yardage and the asking price. This garage sale reject got sent to the Good Will and all stuffed into two bags full. Each bag was marked $3.99 and with my 25% off I got each bag for $2.99.

Going by what was marked on the masking tape I added the complete total and it was 36 yards of material. Thats around seventeen cents a yard!! I'd sure call that a "Bargain of the Day!"
