Today Berta, Dolores and I went to Prescott, about 40 miles and one hour away. We started at Noahs, the animal rescue thrift store. Berta bought a merino wool dress for $12 with the original $115 price tag still on it. Unfortunately, so was the security tag. Dolores bought a colorful knit winter cap. I bought…

The goods

…the foam pad for $10, that’s a sequin tube top by Frederick’s of Hollywood for $2 which I’m thinking of making a purse out of, and the book for $2. Score!
Next we went to the Mall. Started at Dillards where Dolores wanted to buy some makeup. She talked Berta and I into a makeover.

Berta first…

Me second…

On the third try we found a store that had the right gadget to take the security tag off Berta’s new dress. Noahs had written a note that the dress was a donation, not stolen.

We also went to Costco, a bead store, a printer ink store and Safeway. And we actually made it home before dark.
