Craigslist is a sweet goldmine!

I scored a vintage vanity and a funky chair for $120.00 off of craigslist. I originally planned to buy the vanity for $140.00 and talked her down to $120.00. This luxurious chair was just sitting on her porch and I remarked on how unique it was... and wondered if it was for sale... next thing I know she's offering it to me for free... sweet!

I also love perusing the Free section. I recently scored a tall dark brown wardrobe with a full mirror on the front. It was originally purchased at Ikea and retailed for $230.00. Talk about treasure find! On top of that, the guy gave my friend his cat (with all necessary shots), kitty litter, 2 scratching posts and all the toys because he was going to be travelling for a long time. Turns out she was wanting to buy a cat to catch vermin because she lives in an area surrounded by farmland. He also threw in another bonus... a HUGE display toy ship from Pirates of the Caribbean with a whole bunch of accessories. My nephew loves it! Happy ending for everyone!

That is 3 pieces of unique awesome furniture, a bomb diggity cat named Ujoo, and a cool pirate ship for the lovely price of $120.00! craigslist truly is a goldmine!

Divas 2 cents: Curiosity doesn't always kill the cat. Also be sure to cruise the free section on craigslist. One persons trash could be another persons treasure! When you buy vintage or antique you are also guaranteed to find something unique and one of a kind! Be safe! You should never go alone to check out or pick up an item from craigslist.
