A Tale of a Bistro Set


Once upon a time, a shopper went to Rite-Aid and purchased a box set of an iron table and two chairs. She took them home and put them together and used them merrily out on her patio for nine blissful years...

Then one day she decided everything must go. She hired an estate sales company who placed this set in the entry of the home where it was seen by all who passed. A strange man with double glasses (one set clear and one set dark) came through the doors and wanted to purchase the set. He did not want to pay the $40 asking price, but struck a bargain for $25 cash. He carried them away as quickly as he arrived.

It was just an hour later that the shopper went for a ride and here at the neighborhood antique store, out front, by the entrance as it was at the sale she was having that very day, were the table and chairs, with a sign for sale. She returned home to share a laugh with the estate sales company and friends.

Life has a way of putting us through different sets of emotions, but as we experience them, we need to keep our perspective and always remember this -

Yes, the sign on this lovely set is $60 as pictured in the photo taken later that day by the estate sales company.
