I was thinking, hmmm, didn't know they had a catalog. Didn't know they sold bedding. I just thought they had out of this world biscuits and a neat country store that sold old fashioned toys and candy. <BR/><BR/>Now I get it! Yes I agree. I used to hold on to my CB catalogs for eons and peruse the pages dreaming of my house full of their furnishings. Now I do that with Pottery Barn.Pamelottahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550174596822799480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-19318643526068170582008-01-14T13:20:00.000-06:002008-01-14T13:20:00.000-06:00I used to live in Hong Kong.

I would have given my right arm for a wal-mart.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, it was that bad.<BR/><BR/>Oh, but the clothes shopping? Yeah, it was out of this world!Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13603469382689054493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-71814645751356603572008-01-14T12:11:00.000-06:002008-01-14T12:11:00.000-06:00Upstate, The Company Store has some beautiful quil...Upstate, The Company Store has some beautiful quilts, thanks for telling me about them.<BR/><BR/>Angie, I agree, they are just terrible.<BR/><BR/>Jennifer, I did look at PB, but I don't want to spend that much money and the offerings on ebay are stupid expensive and have two inch box cuts in them.
