Newest Umbrella Acquisition


This is my newest umbrella acquisition, from the Volunteers of America store in Auburn, NY. It was priced at $4, but I was able to get it down to $3 just by asking them if that price was the best that they can do.

Quite a good deal actually, especially considering I paid $2 for the folding gold lame Totes 'brella I picked up a few weeks back. This one has much more charm and sophistication to it, is made of cloth, and the wooden handle is stamped "Made in Italy". I think I got a keeper, someone else thought so too, as it is well used, but should still provide me lots of cover for the whole $3 I paid for it.

Can't wait to try it out when the rains start back again!
