One more thing before I go outside and start working on the slab of ice that used to be my driveway—are you checking the Lands’ End On The Counter deals each week?

If you’ve never been, check it out. New items are posted every Saturday (in limited quantities and at deep discounts), and then whatever doesn’t sell out gets price-dropped every couple of days thereafter until everything is gone. So, you can wait and hope to get a better deal, but you’re risking items being gone.

(It’s like gambling! But with shopping!)

I’ve been wanting a bedspread for my enormous king bed (which is so tall that no normal comforter covers the entire mattress), and just picked one up—in that unbeatable all-cotton Lands’ End quality—for under $27 shipped. I pink puffy heart Lands’ End.
