Now that my nieces and nephews are older, my son is hanging out with them and not feeling like the baby. I happen to live at one of the most beautiful beach hamlets in the world and my family has been spending a lot of time with us. East Hampton is a gorgeous place, whatever the season. But there is something magical about it during the hot summer months when all you do is roll out of bed, head to beach, or just sip margaritas on your deck.
I realized that something was missing. Although the deck table and chairs were fine, illuminated by Christmas lights by dusk. But there really was no where to lounge. So I began to search for what I thought was necessary for next summer: The Outdoor Sectional.
Alas, my budget - and conscience - would not allow me to spend $2 - $5K on one, not when I put any extra moneys I have into either our vacation savings (February is hell out here), and Kyle's college fund. And I'm all about the hunt anyway. I love a good bargain, whether I have the money or not so much at the time.
As much as I cringe when I think about Walmart's politics, I decided to see if they might have one that I could purchase without jeopardizing my goals for VaCa or Kyle's future. To my surprise, they had EXACTLY what I had been looking for. And for only $498! Then I shuddered... what were the reviews going to be? They were fantastic! Then I remembered the unethical ways Walmart gets prices so low... but this was FSC-certified: the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) promotes environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world's forests. "By choosing an FSC product, you can be confident that you are protecting the forests by not contributing to the destruction of them." My guilt quickly dissipated. I purchased the Delahey 6-Piece Sectional Set With Natural Cushions.
