Today marks the THIRD day in a row the temps here in Maine will be above 40 degrees. I’ll take it!
Sadly though, the heatwave won’t last for long. After today the highs will be back in the 20’s and 30’s. Oh well. I suppose that’s why it’s called winter. 😉
What do you think of my coat?
The HH and I stopped by Costco {for batteries and socks} the other day when we noticed all their coats were on markdown.
Guess how much the one I’m wearing was?
FOUR DOLLARS!! Can you believe it? When was the last time you could get a brand new coat for four dollars?
Is the coat my favorite color? NO. Is it going to win any fashion awards? No. But for four dollars? Come on now… That’s a deal.
The coat is warm and has a nice fuzzy lining plus as an added bonus it has huge pockets!
Look at the pockets on this sucker!! Seriously, they’re huge. And perfect for beach combing if you ask me.
While I’m always on the lookout for buoys and other oddities that wash ashore, I’ve been on the hunt for usable pieces of driftwood and clamshells lately.
Yesterday I scored big time.
I plan on using them to make a wreath for the front door once everything dries out.
But a new coat for four dollars? I think that was the best find of the day!
Have you found any crazy good deals lately?

There is a little country store in my neck of the woods that has amazing deals. One of the lates was 80 pounds of organic bananas for….$10. You read that correctly. So, we bought the 80 pounds and distributed them to a local food bank.

That’s is a crazy deal!!! Wow.

Costco has the best prices on coats and clothes – even better when they are marked down! Great score. I would’ve bought it too.
