Ice Cream Truck Of Another Kind

Saturday, while we had a few friends over (don't worry, pictures of that are coming soon), we noticed a HUGE furniture truck riding around the block. Someone had ordered a TON of Thomasville Furniture! Just minutes later he came walking around the corner. The Ice Cream man furniture truck driver. Seems an Interior Designer in the area had order the furniture to stage a home and didn't have the money to pay for it. They had gotten a permit at the town hall to basically go door to door to sell the furniture at 1/3 of the price! AMAZING DEALS!! Found a couple chairs I LOVED! Only wish I had somewhere to put them and/or the $$$ to buy them!



Doesn't it look a lot like this picture that I posted earlier?
