Who doesn’t go impulse shopping for chandeliers on the internet in the middle of the night?
I sure do!
Last Thursday evening, I set out to do some updates to my blog. Amazingly enough, I somehow ended up at HomeDepot.com. Strange how those things happen.
Ultimately my e-wanderings took me to the chandelier page where I came upon this beauty…
How breathtaking! It’s perfect for my living/dining room! It’s the Progress Lighting Berkley Collection Oxford Silver 3-light Chandelier. Better yet, it was on sale for $50, plus free shipping. And the sale was ending at midnight.
It was late, my resolve burned out at least 3 hours earlier, and I had my debit card by my side. A perfect storm. The recipe for an impulsive chandelier purchase!
SOLD!
I decided that I would paint it a metallic champagne to match the living/dining room. Nothing more to say, right?
Wrong.
On Friday Ijust had to share my amazing find with a friend at work. So I pulled up the webpage and I was shocked to see that the chandelier was no longer on sale for $50, but had gone down to $35.96!
ACK!
I promptly called HomeDepot.com’s customer service and they were happy to give me an adjustment to the new sale price! I was now down to Craigslist prices! Woo hoo!
Now I’m just waiting to receive it. The champagne metallic spray paint has already been purchased. I am project ready! I’ll share the details as soon as I have chandelier in hand.
