Me Either.. However, I did come as close as one can get to it this past Friday.. As most of you know it’s wedding season, which means it’s bridal shower season, which means a lot of trips to Bed Bath and Beyond.. This particular trip was no different- go to the bridal registry section, print the bridal registry, go find the goods; that is until– from the corner of my eye I spied a Monique Lhuillier for Waterford China set box for 75% off! (This was my immediate thought process: WHATTT!?!? Couldn’t be, could it!! No way- not my china pattern. Don’t get sidetracked, you’re here to buy a gift, but what if it’s my china pattern..) Needless to say I walked over to the rack and there it was in all it’s glory- the china pattern I’d registered for for my wedding.

I screamed, I shouted, let it all out (using my inside voice of course- I am semi-civil)!!

129.99 and 75% off, do the math.. Fine- i’ll do it for you. It’s $97.50 off of the retail price. So the grand total for this 5 pc china set was $32.50. SOLD!!

Can you guess what my next thought was? You guessed it- do they have more? Unfortunately, that location did not, but the extremely kind and attentive manager called a local Bed, Bath, and Beyond that had 7 on hand.. Woo hoo you say?? Not really. He said it was up to each store to determine the actual markdown. So I stood there pacing back and forth, sweating, fingers crossed that I might just be able to complete all of my place settings.

Similtaneously, I called my husband, mom, and mother in law to tell them the exciting news.. My husband tried very hard to match my enthusiam but since when are men enthusiastic about china? My mom and mother in law on other hand understood that this could mean completing my missing placesettings at the fraction of the cost. By the time I completed my calls 10 minutes had gone by and the other location was still trying to locate the items. That’s when the super awesome manager took matters into his own hands! He told me he didn’t want me to wait any longer so he would honor the 75% off and have
them shipped to my home- Score. Just like that this little lady purchased a total of 5 additonal china sets for just $162.50.

That means I got 5 for the price of 1 plus $32.50. I’d say I struck gold.

The reason I am posting this is because the goods arrived today and I am just way to excited not to share!! Plus, who doesn’t like to brag about a great deal.
