So Smart Sales Clerk

I want a headboard for my bed. I've considered a lot of options but mainly I want to be able to replace all the pillows I use now for a headboard. Today I figured out foam would be the cheapest doable option. There's a fabric outlet down the street that sells foam. So I went to buy some. They have just what I want. 4" thick, 27" high and they will cut it to the 50" long I need. Perfect. $28.

But, says the really nice clerk, if I wait until Monday and come in then, everything in the store will be 25% off. She made a good case and then suggested that I also look around to see if there was anything else I needed Monday at 25% off.

Criminey... now they sell yarn there, too. So, I will not be saving that 25%. But I was smart enough to write down the prices of the yarn I might want and only the sock yarn is a deal so maybe I'll limit myself to only the $7's worth which is equal to what I will have saved... seems fair.
