The Auction Again

We went to the auction again tonight. I am really starting to enjoy our new Saturday night tradition. As usual, the boys fell asleep shortly after it started. Joe and I just lay them down on pillows next to us, relax and enjoy ourselves. I am surprised at how much fun it actually is. However, I learned an important lesson. When the auctioneer sells an item and says "three times your money" that does not mean you get three items for one price. I thought I was paying $4.00 for a set of three hanging baskets when in actuality I paid $4.00 each, totaling $12.00 for the set. Oh well, I really like the baskets and at least I had fun while buying them.
