I scored big deal at Old Time Pottery today!

[ Edited ]

Well, upon my return home I found that spouse had decided to "trash" my old patio set.  I was thrilled since it was a junkie 1980s wrought iron rose pattern set.  It came with the house.   It was time to go -- even spray painting it still looked old & tired!

 

So today decided I wanted to hit Lowe's, HD and other stores.  I knew I wanted updated wicker style set.

 

Boy did I luck out at OTP.  They had what I wanted ($89.99) with 50% off patio but this set was missing the chairs in the box.  I asked the mgr how much I could buy just the table for.  He said $9.99 -- sounds good I'll take it.  Went up front & he said "I have 1 box missing 1 chair if you want this one instead for $12.99".

 

Yup that's perfect!  I figured I can always buy other chairs but honestly, I've never sat on my front porch just wanted table for putting my outside decor on!

(And I have to admit I bought this cute truck it was more than the patio set😉

@homedecor1- Well done! What a great deal. I LOVE the truck. Is it orange? "Pumpkin farm" on truck door is adorable. So very different to what I have seen in decorative trucks of late. With the deal of patio set, how could one pass on that darling vehicle. Thanks for sharing!!!!

yes the truck is a "burnt" red/orange in color.  I have no idea where I'll put it but I'm sure I'll find a "spot"🙂

We love Old Time Pottery, our's is HUGE. If we go (DH & I) we go when we have plenty of time to go through it. Just yesterday I went shopping around but couldn't land on anything I was looking for, specific colored sheers/drapes & matching pillows. Got home and thought about needing to make a trip to OTP very soon.

What a bargain. Love the table, chair and the truck. I'm sure you won't too much trouble finding the perfect spot to park that truck.

I took my friend today...I tried to resist but I couldn't!  I bought some "beachy" things to hang on my lanai.  

 

We were there 2 hours🙄 and she's hooked, of course.  She bought 2 nice wicker chairs 70% off.

@homedecor1  That was a good buy! The Cafe table is very similar to the ones I bought at Leisure Furniture here in Florida. The only difference is the bottom legs slightly turn up. I would check out Dollar General, if you have one near you. I recently saw some matching chairs that would be perfect for your table that had higher backs & more squared off on the top. 9.99 each.& they stack.
