Lighting for Less

This weekend I paid a visit to my local Goodwill. I hunt for "treasures" almost every weekend, but lately I've been neglecting Goodwill and giving all my attention to Craigslist. After this score I will never again dismiss Goodwill.

It still needs a lampshade but I think it's pretty darn slick.



And the price I paid for it: $6.95.



And when I looked at the bottom I found the original retail tag: $124.00.



I like that kind of discount.
