Wow that's nice! I've tried that and they told me they can't do that.

And sometimes, it's plants that have already bloomed and they're not as attractive without the flowers. Or the plant just needs to be repotted. The fun for me is sifting through the clearance rack and finding that hidden jewel

I asked about it and wondered if I could buy them, and she said no! It was against their rules, and they had to toss them.

That's disgraceful and one of the reasons I won't contribute to Goodwill anymore (that and the CEO's salaries) -- Salvation Army yes. How could they throw perfectly good books out.
