Last Friday, Rodney and I took our usual trip to Target. After strolling the aisles in the garden section, I came across the mother load of all finds. I knew the brown and Silver sage carpet had to go home with us from the moment I put my eyes on the the beauty. It was located on the clearance end cap without any markings or a price tag. After expressing my extreme excitement for this lovely item, Rodney hauled it over to one of the Target teenage boys for a price. Of course, he could not locate a price and jokingly I said I would pay $15.00 for the carpet, the teenager said "more like $115.00." Well, a more senor associate was called over in an attempt to locate a price. I told the associate I would pay $30.00 for the carpet. He proceeded to scan another nearby carpet while I made a better offer, $15.00. The senor associate thought about my offer for five seconds and then said the best words in the world "you can have it for $15.00." WOW!! What a steal! It fits perfectly in the breakfast area, even Conan loves it. Can you find Conan? He is located at the lower right. :o) Now, I have to find a doggy mat and bowl set that blends in better with the carpet.
On Tuesday, I went to Target again to price the small door sized carpet and I was shocked to find it was $19.99. I guess I can splurge on the small carpet since I saved about $130.00 on the large carpet. I love great finds!
