Congrats on the find!

My sofa came from another member at my old squadron. He had bought it
for when his father in law visited (it had a pull out bed). His father
in law came over ONCE, slept on this sofa for ONE NIGHT, and didn't
come back again...ever! After ten years the guy was tired of having a
huge extra sofa in his house.

And I was sitting in my living room in a lawn chair to watch TV!

I offered him $50 for it but all he wanted was "the damn thing out of
my house" so I have a big, fluffy, soft sofa with a pull out bed, and
the guy even delivered it! I have had it for 5 years now. It is
starting to show its age a bit but I forsee keeping it for atleast
another 5 years. It is great to have the pull out double bed for
company.

I just came from an auction here in town where I bought a comfortable
and not bad-looking sofa for only $20! I think the reason it went
for so little was they left it until the very end, by which time most
of the other buyers had either already left or had spent their money
on other stuff.


Congrats on the sofa. There are yard sales all around here selling sofas
and chairs due to divorces, etc. You can usually get some good deals at
yard sales.
