Fidgeting nervously
at the counter,
the woman waited
until the clerk was alone.
Pulling an object
from her purse,
she barked,
“I’ve never bought resale before.”

Absolutely nothing wrong with resale - there some great finds out there!
My 160 is up too.
We're all feeling it one way or another.
:)
wanted to stop and say hi, running out the door now. but great 160...mine is up too.
I like resale - good deals are okay by me. Was inspired to write this while shopping resale and people watching.
I hardly ever buy retail unless I'm buying ranch at Wallyworld! ;)
Resale rocks!
:)
Great 160!
Remarkable 160!

10Q,
thank you.
...and I like any kind of sale..resale and all!!
I'm a bargain hunter from way back. I hate paying full retail price. So to me this was a funny 160, and she deserves her comeuppance.
And, then, she got over herself!
Good one, Monkey Man!
Ha! And some people don't want the "cooties" seriously. I haven't bought anything for myself new in years, except hiking shoes/boots as you can tell from my blog.
Mine is up HERE
Have a primitive primate week
It's amazing how many buttons you pushed with this one- just reading the comments brought a measure of insight.
Well done!
Thanks for finding me! Enjoying your blog and following you now!
Welcome to the real world I say!!
I've been buying resale proudly my whole life. Now the call it "recessionista chic". I call it, "nothing wrong with being poor."
