Hunting For Bargains
It was the Christmas season.

It was the Christmas season.
My dad recently lost his job.
I needed to find just the right gifts
For family members and friends.
Today I am going to hunt for bargains,
At my favorite thrift store.
I want to find a talking doll for my sister.
My brother wants to play the guitar.
My mom's dishes need to be replaced.
My family needs a new tv set,
I want to fnd books my brother can read,
And I need some new kitchen chairs.
When I hunted for books,
I found some classic Tom Sawyer books.
I found a set of silver plates
That was just the right size.
I found some kitchen chairs
That were made of real wood,
I paid $450.00 for a beginner's guitar
And $20.00 for a talking doll.
The owner of the store gave me
A tv set for only $10.00.
I was happy with my bargains.
My family will have a great Christmas.
