My 1st Craigslist find!

So, I have had 2 experiences with craigslist in about the last 6 months. One good, one not so good! The not so good one was for a tree service and that guy was not good to me or my Granny! He left so many limbs of the trees and didn't tell us, and......oh my, don't get me started! Not good!

2nd one! Loving this one! I found this armoire! I've been wanting one, and my Granny has been searching at yard sales, but I finally found one! This sucker is heavy duty! My dad has been my helper and we carried it down stairs at the lady's house I bought it from and into my house today! SO HEAVY! But we made it! THANKS DADDY!

I got a smokin' deal on it too! I bartered and got it for $15 less! That's so not like me!

Don't you love it? I need a new TV....ya, when I was moving the bed back in place, it fell off the bed. Dumb me should have moved it off, but I didn't, now I'll have to pay for it! GOSH! I'm an idiot!

But, I'm loving it! And now both of my bedrooms are back in business! They've been dismantled for about 2 weeks.

The armoire has 3 drawers below, where I'm keeping towels and sheets for my guests! I haven't had a guest yet....who's first???? :)

Thank you craigslist for renewing my faith in you!

Next steps for my house...guest bathroom (haven't painted it yet), moving in my piano (eventually from Grandma's house) and starting on my back yard (sprinklers and a lawn)!

Looks like a really nice one. I have used craigslist a ton and love it, mostly. I've bought and sold lots of things on there. In fact, before we moved from AJ to Utah, I made over $600 by selling off our stuff on craigslist. That armoire sure looks like a great find, though.

Holy cow, that's a smoking deal! I totally want one. I need lots of things that I can't get here in SJ. Maybe you could be my shopper. :)
