Color of the week



Have you checked out the color of the week on Saturdays at the Salvation Army?  Tags that are the color of the week are 50% off all week.  Fridays they are 75% off and on Saturdays they are all 69 cents.  You can find some incredible deals on Saturdays.  I recently purchased color of the week tags only on  a Saturday.  I came out with a $20 jacket for 69 cents and a bunch of kids stuff.  While I was there I noticed this big (30 x 40ish) vintage Lenny Kravitz poster.  It was marked $19.99.  I passed on it because even though twenty bucks might not seem like much, I really should not be spending my cash on it.  Later at lunch I was going over my purchases in my mind and a light bulb went off.  I think that the poster was the color of the week.  I was not really paying much attention when I originally viewed it because I was thinking that only the clothing was included in the color of the week.  I went back to the store to find out that I had been correct.  It WAS the color of the week and it WAS 69 cents.  The mat and the frame were in decent condition.  Only the backing board inside the frame had to be replaced, but it looks good.  Of course, the price for me to buy a new board to place in there was far more than the price of the poster.  Lenny in his youth.  Sporting his dreads and his boa.  I have not decided where I will place it.  I thought I would hang it on the ceiling above my bed....
