Looking to buy decent used end tables

8 years ago

Any ideas as to where I can find decent used end tables? I have been watching at garage sales and Craigslist to no avail. I would like some with dark wood, classic lines, and that are slightly smaller in scale. Thanks.

Oh my gosh- if you were in Tampa no question! Salvation Army or Missing Piece. I have to stay away sometimes they have so many really nice solid tables, and unique pieces that you don't see everywhere.

Most higher quality furniture gets donated.

Is this flash drive a decent buy?
Q

Your idea of using 2 thumb drives makes perfect sense. Then you always have 2 backups up to the point of the older copy. Not too much would be lost. Kingston has a respected name so you are doing good there too. Flash drive, thumb drive, memory stick all similar. However I have 2 what I call thumb or flash drives which are a one piece thing you simply plug in a USB port. I also have one which has a removeable memory card the same as those used in digital cameras. This also uses the USB port of course, I am not sure if it has any advantages over the one piece drives. We'll see what others think on the matter hopefully.

do any of you buy health products online- at a decent price

We buy our health products on i-herb.com and we are really happy with them. They have great choice, superfast shipping and good prices. I have dry eye and omega3 helps me and when I got my omega from local drugstore it got bad. After I again went and ordered from i-herb it is better again. So I stick with and believe that their stuff is actually good quality. Anyway, if you try I hope you will be satisfied as we are.

You are buying a decently priced, new car.......

We haven't bought a new car in many years. Always buy a 'last year's' model with a long dealer warranty. We put on very few miles, so it's the years on the warranty that count for us. Had our last car almost 10 years/42K miles. We've had some 'loverly' cars that a first owner took a big hit on for us. (My favorite was a white V-12 sedan.) Very happy with our current Jaguar X-Type 3.0 It's beautiful leather inside, small, great traction and pep, good mileage too, but with the little we drive that's not a major consideration. I'm so sorry it's been discontinued. I guess it was much too nicely priced for them to make enough profit on it. Have no idea what's next for the Jaguar brand now that it's owned by an East Indian firm: Tata.

Where to buy decent windows in Canada?

Thanks all for recommendations. I would up purchasing windows from Marvin. Two Infinity with "Everwood Interior" and one Integrity door with wood interior. In the end we installed the windows ourselves and they look great. We would use Marvin again in the future but would definately go with another sales person. My person measured our masonary opening wrong- (Ok I should have double checked but measuring the door was beyond me. (which forced us to cut our double brick wall)) and once the sale was complete, wanted nothing to do with us. Poor customer service. Here is a link that might be useful: Marvin Infinity Window w/everwood

Is there a company called Habitat for Humanity? Our HFH has stores called Restores, where there is a lot of donated furniture. Also, look for "mid century modern" in your Craigslist search. Those tend to be smaller.

ebay, you can refine searches to free shipping or a certain mile distance to make pick up easy.

Do you have furniture consignment stores in your area? Also, these days, antique stores are not necessarily antiques only(too expensive)so vendors are selling furniture from every era, but usually more traditional in style. Estate sales in your area can also be found on line, as are auctions. These could possibly be your best sources for quality used furniture.
