莱斯卖光
明天是正式开始莱斯卖光,法国政府允许商店折扣商品的两次时期。通常过去四个星期,尽管在过去的几个月中,无论如何,几个嘲讽的事情一直在谨慎地标记,在这些现金短缺的时期中炫耀了法律。
The area I live in is the Bastille, and it was once known as a hub of activity for furniture makers and interior designers. During the past few years, the Gap, Levis, and Nike, have muscled their way into the neighborhood as well. Unlike their American counterparts, they have to wait for the sale period as well.
我在这里不是一个销售购物者。一方面,我没有很多空间,而另一方面,价格也很高,因此,即使在25%的折扣中,对我来说,事情似乎并不是一个便宜的。(但是,一旦他们在几周内超过50%的成绩,就避开了我的路!)
抵制变革并留在附近的商店之一是Romeo。
他们的标志说他们是“全世界建筑师d'Intérieur”(原文如此),我认为它们用英语和法语混合在一起,以涵盖更多的基础。这家商店非常时尚,低调的立面在假期里像往常一样高雅。一种lthough I’ve never been inside, you can see through the crystal-clear windows that there isn’t a piece of pricey furniture or Grecian urn that isn’t mirrored, rimmed in brass, gilded, or polished within an inch of its life. When Versace went to heaven, I wouldn’t be surprised if Romeo was hired to decorate his digs.
不幸的是,一对真人大小的金色和斑点的玻璃锤鲨不再在窗户上,我几个月来一直很欣赏的鲨鱼。显然,一个与我抢购的人一样精致的人。但是,这个家伙仍然在窗户上,虽然我震惊它尚未被买来,但我认为我的机会可能会出现。而且价格也很便宜。
So tomorrow, when the sales begin, even though I don’t usually make an effort to hit the stores until the prices drop further, I might have to camp out tonight and snuggle up in the freezing cold so I’m first in the door tomorrow morning. (From the looks of things, it’s obviously not all that chilly in the store, though.)
如果我确实是第一个在门口并得分的人,那将是一个景点,看到我把他拖走了杜布尔格街街。我敢肯定他很重。
幸运的是,从巧克力蛋糕到26磅的火鸡,我有很多经验在巴黎周围拖着笨拙的东西。但是,我认为我将这个包裹带回家并没有太多问题。
一种t least this one comes with its own handle.
