My Friend JCPenney

Since moving into my wonderful Townhouse, I've come to realize I need a floor lamp in the bedroom. And of course I want the one that matches my adorable bedside lamps, which my sister already has both by the way. I trek over to JCPenney on a quest for my coveted lamp. I'm quite worried since it was in the fall when my sister and I found those cute lamps. I find the floor model, but can't find any boxes underneath. Blast! I frantically run around looking for someone that works there. Have you ever noticed when you don't need someone they're all over the place, but as soon as you need help they're nowhere to be found?

I finally get someone to help me, and we can't find any on the floor. She then goes in the back to check if they have more. Nope, of course not. Then she looks to see if other stores have them....Nope, of course not. Then, she checks to see if they're getting more in. By this point, I'm about ready to have a complete break down. I need my lamp people! Don't you understand that!!!! And yet again, the answer is no, they will not be getting anymore in. At this point I start thinking, hmmm....maybe I could buy the floor model if it's in good condition.

We pull it off the shelf and I inspect it carefully. Bingo, it looks great to me. Let me add that this adorable floor lamp is normally $160 (my sister paid that....poor Laura), but it now on sale for $80, and since I'm buying the floor model, they give me an additional 10% off. This must've been my lucky day. I only paid around $75 for this baby and it now looks so perfect sitting in the corner of my bedroom by my chest of drawers. I'll need to take a picture and post it since I can't find any online (once I find my camera of course). Those blasted boxes I still need to unpack are haunting me.
