[ snagging some bargains ]

WHAT DO $10 and Pottery Barn have in common? I know, usually not much. But when the Dubai location has a summer clearance sale in July, it means ridiculous bargains! Get a load of the under $10 goodies I walked ran out of there with:

a couple of buoys...

a bag of beach shells...

some cool tin boxes...

an aqua "coral" cushion cover and starfish pillow...

a cotton curtain panel (for a future DIY)...

a mercury glass ball and hunk of coral...

and some outdoor cushions...

All that for a grand total of $86! Isn't that insane? I felt like the woman on the IKEA commercial screaming "start the car! start the car!" as I left the store!

Don't you just love a bargain? Have you snagged any good bargains lately?

    $86 is a bit crazy (just a bit) :P but these peices do look great! You did get some really good bits here thanks for sharing these! Perfect for a beach themed room.
