Been wanting to get a coffee table and rug for ages now, but unable to justify the cost to myself. Late last night, after walking to the corner to post a letter to my son at summer camp, I kept on to take a lap or two around the block. Saw the rug rolled up with a pad on the sidewalk and gave it half a thought but barely even slowed down. But then, just a bit further on, I saw the coffee table. The small size was just what I had in mind for the space, so I figured I had no choice and carried it home, and decided at the same time I ought to take the rug too, after a very careful survey for gross stains or bedbugs. Very pleased with it all.
