PIPM: Pretty in Pink Megan: Steal of a Deal

Steal of a Deal

On Saturday I worked a shift at the "Repeat Boutique", which is a second-hand store started by the Junior League of Memphis. The Repeat boutique gets donations from local stores and junior league members. One of the stores that donates to the repeat boutique is Babcock's (where I am registered for my wedding). Babcock's has beautiful china and silver. I was ASTONISHED to show up for my shift on Saturday to see my everyday china in a discontinued pink color at the repeat boutique. A whole place setting (including tea cup and saucer) for just FIFTEEN dollars. I was so excited I snatched it right up and set it aside for myself. I know this is not my color, but I thought the pink might be fun to mix in with my white that I am registered for if I ever have a fun tea party or even for Easter. (these items have never been used, they were a display at Babcock's)

Then, much to my amazement I see STERLING SILVER serving platters that normally retail for over 200 dollars and I got them for a whole SEVEN dollars a piece. I was so excited I could hardly stand it. I also found a tea and creamer set that I snatched up as well. A little polishing and this stuff will be as good as new!!!!

Hannah D. said...: Those are SUCH great finds! One of my professors is the president of the Charleston JL and as a class project we are doing the marketing campaign for their "Whale of a Sale." It's the same concept as your store but here they collect the items throughout the year and hold a HUGE event one weekend in November. She told us last year her friend bought a painting for $20 and had it appraised for over $14,000!; March 8, 2009 5:54 PM
