I've hit some thrift stores on 23rd St and the pickins are slim. Meanwhile, St Augustine, FL has one of the best thrift stores I've ever seen. I would bet there's little to no competition for a smoking jacket in northeast FL.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-22944037752320562032009-12-07T20:08:46.995-05:002009-12-07T20:08:46.995-05:00Great Jacket.

But, I do recall that my my old Paul-Stewart smoker, from my narrower days, was excellent and worth every penny of the price. <br /><br />My smoker, along with a nice Cashmere dressing gown, from Brooks Brothers overstock at give-away prices. I doubt Brooks wants to repeat that experience again anytime soon. But, second-hand and consignment shops often do have smokers in fair condition priced at a song.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
