$12 Bargain Find At Beads on Fifth, I discovered much of the merchandise was for wholesale only. An exception, luckily, was this bracelet, which came with clear or lime-green beads—I opted for the green. I was almost in shock when I saw the price. Sure, the quality wasn't great—I could easily bend the silver band. However, if I would pay this much for a tossed salad at lunch, I felt compelled to fork over the money for a bracelet I would sport all season long. 376 Fifth Ave., at 35th St.; 212-244-6626. |
