Family Balance Sheet

JANUARY 29, 2015

After shopping locally at some furniture stores, I resorted to Craigslist and spent hundreds less on a new-to-her dresser. On the last Thursday of each month from January to November in 2015, I’ll hold a virtual meeting (a post) where we will discuss how we did for the month. Daughter and mommy were both thrilled.

My cousin’s mother’s husband’s uncle’s wife’s sister on Facebook brought bed bugs into her house when she bought a used sofa off of Craigslist… shudder, the story still makes me itch and I think we’ll be buying a new sofa. Have you joined the challenge? One of the frames was perfect for what I needed.

That’s motivation to take some time to scour Craigslist and some local second hand furniture stores this week. On the last Thursday of each month from January to November in 2015, I’ll hold a virtual meeting (a post) where we will discuss how we did for the month. One of the frames was perfect for what I needed.

This post originally published back in November 2008. I could have tried to sell the unbroken pieces online, on eBay or Craigslist, but this was definitely instant gratification. Mondays thru Saturdays in October, I will have ideas to help you find $1000 too. You may decide it is worth it to try to sell online.

We had just about sold everything we could on eBay and Craigslist, cut out everything we didn’t really need in our lives, and now we were even saying “no” to friends, family, and most importantly – ourselves. “NO, we aren’t cheap…just frugal”. When you’re in debt and are willing to do whatever it takes, you will get radical.
