ALIEN CHALLENGE #16 - Second PANTOUM - Sales

SALES
Copyright 2008, Janet K. Poludniak

Trash to treasure . . . garage sales are for me!
A more useful saving tool you’ll never see:
A quarter here, or spend a nickel there;
I refuse to pay six bucks for underwear.

A more useful saving tool? You’ll never see
a dressing room, but I don’t really care.
I can’t afford six bucks for underwear!
I’m sell my cheap mistakes for profit on e-bay.

And who needs dressing rooms? Why should I care?
If the price is right with limitless supply
I profit selling cast-offs on e-bay.
The clothes I buy are clean and never shrink.

I love the price, the immeasurable supply.
If it fits me when I buy, it will again;
new clothes I buy in stores are bound to shrink.
Everyone should try a sale or two.

A trash to treasure sale is right for me.
