When I told him it was wayyy more than I'd paid a year ago, he said I could price it cheaper, but he didn't recommend that. Uh, okay. What do you do?
I told my husband their prices have skyrocketed. He said 'tis the season because of the part-timers. I just wanted to ditto what you said about the prices.

I think they have gone up too. I go down there two three times a week. I am looking for just the right tropical looking lamp or fishy looking lamp or shell looking lamp for our lanai. Also a recliner that is not reclinerish...in the right color. Earlier in the season recliners were $185. I don't know about lesser quality, but things are really picked over, I am there enough to see the merchandise shift daily. I wish I was raking in the dough like that. Very lucrative, it looks to me.
Good for them. But just remember what made you successful, please.
