Well yesterday woke up, showered and headed down to Cherry Creek for a few errands. One of our stops was Nordstrom to drop off two pair of shoes to get shinned. We then walked to the Polo Store to see what was on sale when much to our surprise, the whole store was going on sale. Liz, our friend and salesperson, confided in us that it wasn’t public yet, but they’re going out of business. March 16th they are gone are all out of a job. Yesterday morning they put everything in the store at least 50% off, some stuff more. So there we were, with the entire store being marked down. I had Lori start looking for dresses and practical pieces as at these prices, we had to look for her. A few hours later we headed over to Cherry Creek Grill for lunch with our friend Tina for lunch as we’re helping her with a big benefit event April 30th.
During lunch as we told her about the sale, she decided she had to go. We had to drive back over to pick up our shinned shoes so she rode with us and left her car on the street. Well an hour later, Tina had 2 armfulls of stuff too! I’m telling you, the deals are that good. She bought like $4000 worth of stuff for $1100! The women’s stuff was already getting picked over as women  are like vultures when there’s a sale, but the men’s side was still pretty good. When we dropped her off she called her husband Jeff and before we made it back to Vail she was texting Lori pictures of a big pile of stuff from the store Jeff bought as they went back again. Tommy, you should go down today, it’s so worth it. So, I found a pair of shoes marked down to $50 and a briefcase marked down 80%! The rest was for Lori, ha ha. Wish we had the money to spend as there home department with everything from sheets to bedding to furniture was on sale. There was this beautiful Audrey Hepburn like black and white light wool coat that fit Lori marked down from $3600 to $700! It was beautiful but not a necessity, plus $700 is a lot of money. We did really well getting Lori a bunch of stuff  for very little money.
The boys were home the entire time and did really well. We made it home by 5 or so and today will be cleaning out our closet going through old clothes and getting rid of them. It’s sunny and nice up here, not sure of the temperature but I have the sliding door open now at 7am. The boys are on their first Spring Break (they get two, one now and one at the end of April) so they’re both sleeping along with Mom. So that’s it, cleaning and sleeping. Tom, if you go to the Polo Store, you should get Mom some of her white shirts as they have them and tons of other stuff. GB
