I was impressed with the Babylock going for so inexpensively. Even if you have to have it serviced, it still comes out a good deal.

Wow -- you were in the right place at the right time. Lucky you! And how nice of you to pass on the bargains to your animal shelter!

That was so sweet of you to grab the towels for the local animal shelter. For those of who don't know it, towels are the best item to be donated to any animal rescue since they can be washed quickly and reused.

I think they have been around for a long time too. Maybe they are just ready to retire.

Turns out evidently only the actual brick and mortar store is being closed. Online will still be open. So at least that's good.

The staff did seem really appreciative for the towels. I wish they were always that inexpensive.

Glad you got to participate in the sale. Sorry you couldn't have gotten there earlier. But at least you were able to get some of the bargains.

I saw office chairs on wheels and with arms go for $15, someone got a refrigerator for $40???

You see those prices and can I use that???
They had embroidered can coozies (I think that's what they are called) go for 2 for $1, and they had team names embroidered on them.
