I asked the sweet lady who was incharged and asked how much she is asking for these hula skirts. She asked me how much I was willing to pay for them. My inside voice said I will pay a maximum of $5/ea, but I didn't say anything. When the lady asked me if I dance Hula, I said yes. She said, "You can have them for $1/ea; how about that?" All I could say was, "What a great deal."
The skirts come with these tops and pants which I will not wear to practice, but they are nice to have for performing.
I couldn't hide my excitement; I asked the lady for this dress. She said, "You can have it for $2." I couldn't have pulled my $5 bill fast enough; I was so happy. I didn't even care if it wasn't gonna fit me, for $2, you can't go wrong. I'm glad it fits me. I spent a total of $4 for 2 skirts and a beautiful dress.The lady mentioned that she is just happy the costumes are going to someone who appreciates them. They were her daughters. And if you know hula performances at all, you have to sew all of your own costumes and make most of the accessories, so they were made with a lot of love. And in my case, it usually includes late nights/ last minutes sewing, or having my hula sisters sew them for me (I know, how sad is that I don't sew). Well, in my defense, I just bought a sewing machine, and I will learn and try to sew my next hula outfits.
