Ooh! I wanna play!

Oh, Mister Alpert
And your Tijuana Brass
Your whipped cream haunts me

Mondays are half price
But the crowds are twice as bad
and the racks are picked

Does this dress smell like
cat pee, or is that BO?
Does Tide get that out?

Is this one vintage?
It has a metal zipper
and union label

The butter yellow
Calls to me from the low shelf
Is that a McCoy?

Was Just Wondering
Should I stay or should I go
Real addictions stink

 Cry

I like to thrift, see
But my new stereo finds
put my wants in check

 Grin

Sure, there will be pro-
active opportunities
to find that Pyrex

 Smiley

But moderation
must be the rule from now on
Only address needs

 Wink

Time to purge my dears
Time to sort the needs from wants
Time can heal most wounds

See you next time
bye for now.

Big Daddy, your haikus read like a story. Was that your intent? I am very impressed!

Can I title your book--_The Zen of Thrift_?

Peace and Happy Hunting,

You can call it that
Not my first choice, but your book
Zen of Thrift is fine

See you next time
Bye for now
