However. . . . this weekend . . . . we were back at Tuesday Morning looking to see what bargains they had on clearance which was an additional 50% off!!!! Bargains to be had, for sure!!!
And what do I spy on the shelf at the very last Tuesday we went too -- minutes, just minutes, before closing time?
Spode Blue Soup Bowls!!!
The back label says that they normally retail for $53 each and they originally sold at Tuesday for $24.99 (which is what I paid for the first four, methinks) but they were marked down to $12.99 (and I would have paid that had I been in there earlier in the month) but they were half of that!!! $6.50 each!!!!!
This pattern is Camilla and I like the patterned blue border with the camilla in the center. I do have one Spode Blue Room plate in this pattern.It's great to now have 8 bowls for I can use them when we have dinner parties. I do love setting the table with the Spode for it sets a pretty table AND it goes into the dishwasher as well!
And just think for just half of what I would have paid retail for one bowl, I got all four! Truly a great find and certainly made my day traipsing from one Tuesday Morning to another worthwhile. The bowls (and a birthday present for my greatniece) were my only purchases. It was the third day of the sale and the clearance items were picked over. But somehow, someone, didn't buy those bowls!!!
It's Monday and time for Blue Monday at Smiling Sally's at I can't think of a better blue than Spode transferware! And since the bowls came so cheaply, I'm also at Today's Thrifty Treasures hosted by Southern Hospitality. Please visit and see what is happening this Monday!

It's easy to see why you're excited, Martha. These bowls are so special, and you got them at bargain prices! Happy Blue Monday.
These are really pretty and a fantastic bargain. I love Tuesday Morning!. Happy Blue Monday
The bowls are wonderful Martha. You've picked a great find to share with us on Blue Monday. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
Oh congratulations. They are truly beautiful. I have a lot of Blue Room too, but the border on Camillas is so different - just beautiful. I'm looking forward to seeing them in a tablescape!
I'm hosting a new meme called, "Summer Sundays". It's all about what summer means to YOU: like your gardens or a beautiful tablescape. I'd love to have you come and join us.

they were meant for you Martha, that's why! congrats.
Martha, Your bowls are a find and a treasure... as is you SILVER MEAT DOME! I, like you, have been lusting over them for a couple of years, but have now found one in my price range.
You lucky girl on both accounts!
I can't wait to see what you will do with both in future posts!

Martha, I don't generally shop too often in the TJ Max/Homegoods type stores, but I've been very lucky on a few occasions in Tuesday Morning. Great find!!

I have never known anyone that comes across such fabulous "FINDS" as you do. WOW, they are beautiful and that would never happen to me. If I had bought four at one time and hoped for a few more my luck would be that I would never find them. Glad that you found four more.
