Home Plates

I see where I get this now. Not only is my mother, Colleen, a champion ThriftScorer, but my bonus/step mother Holly is too. How could I ever escape this fate?

We are getting married in August at Holly's winery and vineyard. And, in the spirit of being as sustainable and practical as possible, we added to her collection of beautiful restaurant/caterer plates to serve 100. If we'd rented them, they'd cost about 55 cents each. Which is about how much we bought them for. So now she can just keep them there and use them as she needs. I don't ever recall going to an event and noticing if the plates exactly matched ... The other great thing about ThriftScoring plates is that you can bring food over to people's homes and let them keep the plate as a gift.
