Beware my shopping-fu
I was at a mall tonight and decided to go to Sur La Table and cruise their clearance section.
Right next to the clearance rack was a baker's rack full of really pretty glassware, and I told the woman stocking it that it was no fair putting NICE TEMPTING things next to the clearance rack.
"These are all 50% off the marked reduced price."
8 clear-stemmed ruby water goblets
4 greeny stripey pint highballs
4 clear glass mugs (to replace some that are so old they are turning white)
Original price: $103.
My price: $37.

I think I just spent the difference - and then some - at Barnes and
Noble. LSAT prep books are NOT cheap. *sigh*
