christmas shopping WIN

[pennie_dreadful]

I want to buy my parents a fire pit for Christmas.  They've done a lot of work on the yard and it looks nice, and a fire pit would be just the thing for their deck.  So I looked on Amazon to get a general idea of prices and styles, and I found one I liked, more or less reasonably priced.  But I was going to shop at Home Depot and Lowe's just to see if I could find a better deal, 'cause shipping something that weighs fifty something pounds is going to cost.  Well.  Just today I was at Old Time Pottery to buy some mini loaf pans so I can make banana nut bread (walked out with more than that, of course; I always see something else I "need", hah), and right there in the front of the store was a fire pit--the same dimensions, and nearly the same style--for almost a hundred dollars less.  Score!
