I LOVE LOVE LOVE craigslist! I got this couch for $75 from a rich lady. Do you see how dirty Noah’s feet are in this picture? If I had paid 85 bucks a lot of money for this couch, I would care. But I don’t because I can always find another couch for $75! Buying stuff for my house from craigslist helps me calm down when people are here with little kids. The Bible commands us to be hospitable. Look it up, it isn’t something recommended if you have a BIG house or you enjoy it. we are commanded to do it. This is another reason I love craiglist. We have kids from church over here constantly. Buying stuff second hand has kept me calm when there are 5 hyper boys wrestling on the couch with mustard on their shirts. People are more important than mustard stains. Don’t get me wrong, I would never give my kids a bottle of ketchup and tell them to go be creative in the living room but I also want my house to be a place where people can come and relax without feeling like they are doing something wrong. So if you have expensive furniture, God bless you. I’m happy for you. Just make sure you are letting people enjoy what God has blessed you with.
Side note: I cleaned those windows yesterday people!!!
