Good Deals

I think my computer is finally dying a slow and agonizing death. I'm sad to see it go because it is an XP machine (I know, but I don't like learning new technology), and it has served me well for a long time. It has been difficult to update since they stopped supporting XP and that is actually the problem. I fell for a fake Norton virus.

Sometimes things are not always what they seem. I thought that when my son told me about this deal he got online at the Men's Warehouse for a suit. He asked me to hem the pants and then proudly told me he got the entire thing for $29. Of course I was stunned. You can't even buy that much fabric to make a suit for $29. He laughed and told me it was clearance and then they took an extra 40% off. So I immediately scolded him for not telling me about it at the time.

Then over Labor Day weekend I got a text, "The suit sale is back on!" I put my sweetie on it and promptly forgot about it, figuring he probably didn't have the time to figure out his size, let alone peruse the online site. Then this week they arrived, 3 high quality suits, one for my sweetie, one for Sport, and one for Curly. Yeah, he had to order 3 so he could get the free shipping, and for all 3 the total was just over $100.

Some good deals are exactly what they seem to be, but you have to be willing to hem your own pants.
