Question

Is craiglist a good place to buy old furniture and stuff? i need a cheap used couch and bed for my new apartme

Answer 1

I LOVE craigslist. Check under the "free"section. Furniture is always being given away on there. I don't know about getting a used bed, though. A friend did that once and woke up with a rash all over her body.

Answer 2

You can actually go to Big Lots if they have that store in your area and get a new spring and mattress quiet cheaply.  At least it is new.  If you buy from Craigslist...check out the stuff carefully and don't hesitate to ask "how old is it" and whether they have used a mattress pad.  Whatever you buy...get a mattress pad at TJMaxx or Marshalls for $20.00 for protection

Answer 3

Yes, you can also try freecycle, the local "shopper" newspapers, the classifieds in the official newspaper.

Best though, to deal with stuff in person, at a resale shop, consignment store, charity store, or at a flea market.
