I am known to do some looking before I buy something. Usually I'm wasting my day away trying to find something cheaper. Some days I roll my eyes at myself. Rediculous. Other days I feel quite proud of my quest for those inexpensive items I've driven all around town for. I'm sharing my secrets with you today. (Remember this is on a small budget.) Hope it helps you save a buck or two.
Furniture:
- Craigslist/garage sales/thrift stores/auctions (someday we'll get to buy other furniture)
- Overstock.com has great prices
- Big Lots (call me crazy but I was just there and was totally impressed)
- Ikea (may need to buy hemming tape to hem them yourself)
- Target (reasonable price for temporary living, I probably wouldn't buy them for the home that awaits us)
- Burlington Coat Factory (you just might get lucky, big supply but need to weed out the uglies)
- Pier One (check the sale curtains often)
- Pottery Barn (don't rule them out as being out-of-budget)
