{that missoni blanket}

Remember that Missoni blanket for Target that sold out in minutes and then was being sold for hundreds of dollars on Ebay?  Well yesterday in a random story of perfect timing, I was able to buy one of those blankets for the original $39 price tag!  On my way back to my car after running a quick errand at Target, I passed a woman walking into Target holding a bunch of the Target Missoni blankets  (presumably to return them).  I politely asked her if she had bought them recently online or how she had them and she mentioned that she had bought them a while back, but didn't have the time or energy to list them on Ebay.  She immediately offered to sell me one, but I said no thank because she seemed to only have the pink and brown colored ones, not the color scheme that has some blue in it, but suddenly she produced that coveted throw from underneath her stack of Missoni blankets and let me have it for a mere $40!! This blanket is insanely soft and I love the pop of color it adds to our living room.  I also did a quick search on Ebay and it looks like the demand on these has come down significantly from the madness at the beginning and you can get these blankets for around $75 now.
