<p>[QUOTE="cxgirl, post: 80021, member: 63"]Hi,</p><p>Yesterday I went to an antique store sale - they are closing out and everything was 50% off. They had a silver aluminum Christmas tree that was set up to display the ornaments, so I asked if it was for sale. The owner said it was but she didn't want to take it down yet so she said 'Lets look in the back room, I think there are a couple in there'. When she opened the door I couldn't believe my eyes, there was a box of silver Pom Poms waving at me. She said 'just a minute, there is another one in here somewhere' and pulled out one still in the original box. She said if I wanted one I could have it for $40, I said I would take both please, got the pair for $70. Both are 6 feet, and the one loose in the box is only missing 2 branches. The tree that was on display was just a regular aluminum tree. I collect Christmas items so they will be staying with me. I also got 2 Norah Wellings dolls, an RCA money clip in sterling, and this lorgnette,missing one lens.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]20420[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]20421[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]20422[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]20423[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
