Yes!

Because of my recent entry into the world of paycheck-to-paycheck living, I’m learning to bargain shop (OK, it’s not really all that dire, or I would not have bought this at all, but you get the idea). In any case, I’ve started becoming a watcher of Craig’s List because moving (eventually) from a four-room condo to a seven-room house does mean we really don’t have enough furniture to fill the space. And it just paid off. I just bought a coffee table that was originally around $450 from Pottery Barn for $40! And it’s in excellent condition.
I could get used to this.

OMG, that’s awesome. I have a $650 armless chair I’ve been eyeing from there. Bargains rock!

You GO, AF! You, too, Michelle. Our latest prize has been an 80″s style l-shaped sofa for our tv room. Friends moving across the country gave it to us, free, and the best thing (next to the stuff being free) is that our family of two humans and two felines can all sit on a sofa and watch tv without kicking someone off.
And the other benefit, of course, is that it is another product of recycling.
