A real bargain!

Tomorrow Eden is coming to stay for a whole week so when I went shopping on Monday I decided to treat myself to a couple more T shirts so that I don't have to wear my tatty ones when I go out. Around the house or garden I tend to wear things that are baggy or faded but I won't throw them out while there is wear left in them.
I went into the only shop that caters for 'ladies of a certain age' and doesn't charge the earth and they have just started their sale. They also do a loyalty card which I have and on certain days you can get a good discount if you have this card. So there I was looking around but there wasn't anything I liked in the sale so I wandered around and the T shirts were on offer, 3 for £12 and they are all cotton.
The only problem now was choosing the colours and after some deliberation I picked out three, white, orange and turquoise. Then I thought I might get another pair of their canvas cropped pants and found a pair in my size in a neutral sort of stone colour. These are usually £14 but I noticed that there was a fairly big red mark on one of the legs. I hunted around but couldn't find any other pairs in this shade so I went to the till and asked the assistant if they had any more.
She was very helpful and went upstairs to check but came back and apologised because they were the last pair. I said I really liked them but there was a mark on them which looked a bit like beetroot juice so I said I was willing to take a chance and asked if I could have a reduction on the price. So she asked if I had a loyalty card which I gave her and then she put all the items through the till and gave me a 40% discount on the whole lot!
I washed the pants on Tuesday, using a stain remover first but the mark didn't budge, however, when they had gone through two washes and I ironed them, the mark had come out completely. I feel really chuffed because I got a real bargain there and all girls like a good bargain!
