As prices on practically everything are going up, it's hard to pass up a good deal.
At least that's what Lisa Troost, of Peter Troost Monument Company, says.
The Hillside-based company, located near Queen of Heavens Cemetery on West Roosevelt Road, is currently advertising a discounted "Recession Headstone" for $475.
"We've had more customers coming into the store because they saw that message on the marquis than we've ever had off of any marquis message we've ever show before," Troost, who is president of the fifth generation family-owned business, told the Sun-Times.
Well, there's one thing you could check off the "to-do" list.
