Just curious what you guys have been able to score recently.

I don't have anything really good to share, been spending too much. Let me live vicariously (and frugally!) through you!

A couple months ago I got a nice leather couch for $320 CAD. I think it could have sold for about 800 without blinking an eye. I have received much praise from the family with how nicely it ties our family room together. I'm very proud lol.

I got a 50 quid second hand sofa and matching foot rest.

Paid a mate 20 for a pro cleaning and it's basically good as new.

The sofa is like 2k new and the foot rest around 500. Crazy what people get rid of.
