My Purchases

I have been looking for some items for our new house. We sold our camper so Michael and I each had $2000 to spend. My main goal was to get a dining room table and chairs and hopefully a hutch to go along with it. I also wanted a couch for the den. Michael was looking for outdoor machinery. We both had good luck with deals. Here’s how we did.

This is what Michael got for his money. I’m not sure if he has any left, but I think he's going to put a roof on as payment for a tiller, outdoor fireplace and who knows what else.


John Deere riding lawn mower

Stihl weed eater




Stihl chain saw






This is what I got. And I still have about $300 left. Yay!!!


$ 60 - solid wood coffee table from Pottery Barn for living room



$ 100 - light sage green couch for man room



$ 50 - 27 inch Sony flat screen for man room

$ 80 - Sony surround sound
$1400 - Thomasville dining table with 2 leaves, 6 chairs and hutch. The table is probably about 6 ft without the leaves. We’ll be able to seat 10 or 12 people with the leaves in!!
