Decorating on a Ukrainian Dime

Welcome to Winnipeg where the winters are blustery and the prices are cheap, cheap, cheap. Or maybe it's just Ukrainian shoppers that can't rest until they find the best deal. For example, these chairs were $129 apiece at JYSK. Then my sister alerted me to the fact that they were on sale for $99. Made the trip back and got a price adjustment of $134. Couple that with a Palliser dining table purchased at Factory Kitchens Direct on King Street for a whopping $169 and you've got a great looking set. Total price: $565 plus tax. Baba Zolkewich would be proud.
