		<description><![CDATA[Reading a post by Sue on her kickin&#8217; blog Vintage Rescue Squad, I was intrigued with the P.S. she added about bragging. Sue has been on junking roll lately. She tends to attribute it to luck, but I&#8217;d bet my very last dollar that her recent triumphs have more to do with sweat and experience. [...]

		<description><![CDATA[A neighboring antique mall dealer bemoaned folks who like to spend their money on cheap decorating crap at Walmart rather than the glorious vintiques we offer. I eagerly concurred and bragged that I hadn&#8217;t set foot in a Walmart in over three years. &#8220;Well,&#8221; she said, &#8220;We do our grocery shopping there.&#8221;  Looking at her [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I’m sure I won’t make many friends with this post, but it has to be said: Etsy has TOO MUCH advice. Has anyone, save for a meddling friend, ever given you too much advice?

I thought I had bookmarked the article, but now I can&#8217;t find.
