Sample Sales, Sample Sales, Sample Sales

Treat yourself with something special for xmas. If you've never been to a sample sale before your in for a treat. They can be really good. You can get pieces that no one else will have or designer pieces at knock down prices. But be warned there sometimes is a lot of crap. You might find not very well made things that were tried out and rejected or pieces that are so small your big toe wouldn't venture in! Just don't buy something you have to fix or have no idea how to fix. Make sure you try it on there are no refunds or exchanges. It might stay in your wardrobe for a long time. That one off, spur of the moment bargin could turn into a wardrobe skeleton.
It is worth going to have a look though.
