I remembered the paper coming home about it. A school sponsored event where kids can do their Christmas shopping for family members. On Wednesday, as I picked up Zane from school, I noticed the kids filing out holding small items that they had obviously purchased at the Santa's Workshop: a craft store with items ranging from $.25-$5.00. I don't house recipes, bill statements, or my children's pieces of homework or art in this binder. ~ A place to organize large quantities of paperwork. ~ Something that can be done online or with a smart-phone Let's start with what a BRAIN BOOK is NOT. The whole exchange from the initial discussion at the counter to that moment wasn't heated in any way, but I could tell the woman who really wanted to price it at $100 was not too happy to have my input. You guys shouldn't try to pass it off as being real."
One of the guys who was a part of the discussion walked with me. I took that as my cue to walk away, 'cause now I was just getting angry. Someone will buy it, thinking it's real." Now, certainly, any discerning buyer would know that this thing clearly wasn't an original, but the employees wanted to price it high, (just in case), for the non-suspecting crowd. This isn't one."īasically, I was at the counter hanging with the employees who were trying to decide if the lamp was legit, and if so, how to price it. "Before advertising it as such, I'd do some research on legit-Tiffany lamps. "Well, it says it is, so I think we should sell it for $100. Not to mention the "real deal" would come in at way more than 100 bucks. "Yes, it says Tiffany, but I don't think they put tags like that on their pieces." I was really trying to be polite, but clearly, the thing was a knock-off and hardly worth $100. Unless, I feel they are trying to pull one of their second-hand wool sweaters over a customer's eyes. A 1940's-style dress and shoes for our church's radio production of "It's a Wonderful Life." I found them. One of my favorite Wednesday haunts due to it being 50% off day. Had it, as in, time to teach myself something new today: Wordpress.) Sadly, it was too late - after being unable to edit two posts, which then ended up disappearing altogether, I'd had it. (So, as of this posting, the editing feature here at Blogger seems to be working again. I took that as the kick in the pants that I needed to finish a 2011 goal: especially considering that for the past week I've been unable to edit any content here at Blogger, and have thus LOST two posts. Looking forward to seeing what all the fuss is about over at Wordpress. I still have to tweak a few things, so give me some time to play around and redecorate. This kind of stuff is challenging for me. So use the address above for the next 12 days. All archived content has been transferred. In fact, I'm there now, but still living in two homes. The Cuppa Jo will be moving to by January 1.
