A couple of weeks ago, I told you about Woot – one of my go-to places for snatching up products at deep discounts that I can’t always buy at my go-to thrift stores. 🙂 I also told you about their upcoming birthday week and all the great deals they would be having.

Well, I kept a close eye on their site in case they had anything we’d been holding out on purchasing or in case I saw any great potential gift items for the holidays. I ended up walking away from their birthday week with a few fantastic bargain purchases….

Every time I go to pull out my nice china, I kick myself.

Because its not there.

It never was.

I have my great grandmother’s floral patterned china which is perfect for Easter, but no wedding china of my own.

No, we needed this stuff.
