OTT Light clearance

Jinx

Wow- congrats you guys - I guess this counts as unexpected afternoon S.E.X.! I might even walk in to the local Michaels as well.

Just be careful you remember you're walking, and don't buy more than you can carry! I've gotten myself in trouble a couple of times doing that.

LOL - not likely to happen, but I do resemble that picture all too often. We're on the relatively strict budget these days...and I'd only be walking from the parking lot. Though I do have a habit of not carting around a cart

- so to speak.

Thanks for the heads up! I went to the local Michael's, and they had a pile of Ott stuff on clearance. I bought a freestanding 5X magnifier. Figured for $15 I could give it a try, and if it's not useful for me for stitching, I can pass it along to my mom.

Imagine, I might be able to see what I'm doing *and* see the TV, LOL!

sue (who typically takes off her glasses to stitch, but then can't see anything more than 6" past her nose.)

I'll have to take a look tomorrow after I drop off DM for her hair appt. DM has a Dazor lamp she uses for the light (but not the magifier).

Nancy (who also takes off her glasses to stitch but still has a magnfier hanging aroung her neck...why I can't stitch and watch hockey games at the same time.)

That's why I bring knitting to the rink! LOL

Well, I have the portable and I have my floor lamp. Really shouldn't go take a look...no Nashua/Salem errands until next week....

Following up on my trip to Michaels.....not much on clearance here. Only the extension magnifier for $80. Not a great deal. And no deal at all without the floor lamp. And they had lots of new Ott lights. Some I haven't seen before and more in stock than in recent visits.

I followed up my weekend score trip with another stop today to both the same Michael's and one other location looking for any type of clip magnifier for my floor stand, but it was marked $79.99 here as well. Nope -- not worth it! At least I know now if it's the same price at your store too, that it wasn't some pricing anomaly for that particular store. I haven't decided yet whether I'm going to try a third Michael's later today or not yet to see what they've got left for Ott stock. I've been mulling going back for the table lamp, but both stores today were sold out of them already. But dang, I really am getting to the point of needing a magnifier to see well enough to stitch even the most basic things. I haven't been able to do any silk gauze work for years now.
