A little photo trip around the yard

May 8, 2010

Flowers blooming in the yard and feeling the warm sunshine on my face does a body good!!

Thank you Lord for all the special things you do…. each day is a gift!!

I tried to capture Clover in the photo, but silly girl wouldn’t stay put…..

The planter above was a fantastic deal from Lowe’s this past December.  I spotted it on sale for $49.00 while I was  looking around at Christmas greens.  I’ve been wanting a couple of these for a few years, but never wanted to pay full retail at $99.00 each.   Half off seemed like a pretty good price, so I started thinking about the purchase. As I was checking over the urn and thinking, I noticed a chip under the edge.  Awesome, I love chips and cracks 🙂 they were willing to take an additional 15.00 off because of it….so I ended up buying it for more like $35.00!!! Now all I needed to do was find another one to match….To make a long story short, I tracked another urn down at a different Lowe’s and was able to get that one for $15.00 (again because of a defect)…..It was such a big savings to get both of them for $50.00 instead of $200.00. I just saw some the other day and they were back up to 99.00 each.

Tip: Save big at Lowe’s by making after season purchases.
