Got DD's nursery furniture- very cheap

LIAngel · February 2011

My sister's friend was looking to sell her daughter's furniture, so I figured "why not just take a look at it, I got nothing to lose right?". So after playing Facebook/email tag for a few weeks, I was finally able to see the stuff in person. I had seen pictures, but wanted to see it and check it out.

It's 2 pieces- one is a changing table that has 3 big drawers and also a thing that slides out (looks like a door) that I could use for diapers, and stuff like that. The other piece is taller and one side has a door that when you open it, has shelves and a place to hang stuff. The other side of the piece has 2 open shelves (where I can put little knick knacks or cute decorative things (like a piggy bank or nice picture frames or whatever). Then it also has 3 nice size drawers. She won't have as many drawers as Nicholas does, but her closet is a very nice walk in, so even if we run out of room I can always get one of those plastic things with the drawers and put it in the closet. The only thing is, we have to touch up the paint since it's a bit chipped in the front in one small spot.

Anyway, we got both pieces for $250. Very good deal. DH was going to offer her $500, but I asked her what she was going to list it on Craigslist for and she said $300, but since she knows my sister, she'll give it to us for $250.
