Looking for the silver lining.

Lydia Wagner sends this photo from a jewelry store near her office in San Francisco. She says:

I'm not an expensive jewelry kind of person so I don't shop there. It just surprised me to see such a high-end place advertise in what could be called a low-end way.

In case you can't read the sign, here's what it says:

**** Jewelers over the last 95 years has made friends with many large jewelry manufacturers. During this extremely slow economic time some manufacturers are clearing out overstock unique and classic jewelry at well below market prices. You, our friends and customers, will get a bargain and the manufacturers raise some needed capital. A Win! Win! situation for everyone.

Keep sending those pictures. We love to see them. Upload them to our Facebook page, send us an email (planetmoney@npr.og), or added them to the newly created Planet Money Flickr group.
