First came my iPhone and now that I admit I am fully addicted to the crack they call "apple"- I can also admit I am addicted to what I call Garage Sale-ing from your couch. Or in my case the recliner I nurse in. And lately I have had A Lot of time to shop at this Garage Sale!
At first I lost out on a couple of items, I think because I asked too many questions about the item and didn't move fast enough. But now I have the hang of it, as you will see documented with the picture evidence below.
Here are my reasons for loving the State College Craigslist app:
1. I can peruse by category, no need to look at clothes, or knick nacks or farm equipment if I don't want to!
2. It has allowed us to furnish rooms in this much bigger house on the cheap!
3. I feel creative b/c we are taking someone else's crap and making it "cool" for us!
4. Reduce, reuse, recycle!
5. Did I mention this is an app?!? I can make these purchases on my phone, with my thumb, at 3 am if I want too!!
6. Jeremy goes and gets the stuff for me!
7. Some of the post descriptions are hilarious, for instance it may be the only time you see exquisite and Ikea used to describe the same item. And why do people say "one seat sofa" - it is a chair people! My fave is the posts that are willing to "trade" their item for "guns or ammo"....yikes!
8. My new kitchen table
9. My new kitchen chairs
10. My new coffee table
11. My new end tables- still need to paint
12. Our new King Bedroom set
13. Did I mention Cheap??
14. Pottery Barn Kids Butterfly decor for Ava's room
15. Fishy decor for kids bathroom
16. Four shelf toy organizer with bins for kid toys
17. And finally - CHEAP!!!
