1. There must be no knobs on the dressers or nightstands.
2. It must not be of a "platform" height.
3. It must be made of quality wood.
4. It must be black.

How do I fix a new apartment from scratch?

Q. I'm going through a divorce and have to start over again.
I really don't know where to start , with cash being tight right now.
any help would be most appreciated.
Thank You one and All.

A. Im sorry for what youre going through, that must be really difficult. however, there is a bright side! youll be out of your crappy relationship soon and on your feet in no time...

as for your question...

I had next to noooo money when I moved into my new apartment. Craigslist and IKEA were seriously lifesavers. I got a set of REALLY NICE couches on craigslist, the woman I got them from was looking to have her floors redone and just wnated them out of her house by the next morning...perfectly nice, modern looking couch and loveseat for FREE. I also got my matress set from craigslist, from some kid who was moving, spur of the moment out to cali (I live in boston) and needed to sell his almost new jordans furniture queen sized mattress and boxsprings...I got them under a year old, valued at 1200 for only 200 bucks. If you look, and you must look, and be vigilent you can seriously find the most amazing deals on craigslist. I have a beautiful apartment, all of my friends comment on how gorgeous it is when they come over for the first time, and seriously to furnish two bedrooms, living room, kitchen total I must've spend less then $1500 bucks. which, when you think of it, is a steal. and Im including the prices of flatwear, kitchen wear etc. that I got all from IKEA so inexpensively. Good luck, it can be done! You just have to be creative

Original Question

Where should I get furniture?

Q. I live in Eugene, Or and want to know where to buy furniture because I've been told to never buy a bed or a couch used. Also, how much should I be spending on a bed(queen), couch, and Bookshelf if I just want cheap stuff to use in my first apartment?

A. You are in luck. You have two Big Lots stores in your area that have furniture departments. Here's the link with the map:

http://www.biglots.com/store-locator?zipCode=&city=eugene+&state=OR

Mattresses with pricing (bed frames are separate):
http://www.biglots.com/browse/furniture/mattresses/queen-mattresses

Sofas, loveseats, sectionals
http://www.biglots.com/browse/furniture/living-room/sofas-loveseats-and-sectionals?sortBy=&offset=0&max=9

You are correct in that mattresses and sofas should be bought new, whenever possible, to limit your exposure to bed-bugs and other pests. If you cannot afford brand new, at least invest in the bed bug protector covers (like protect a bed brand) for your mattress and your box spring. Basic metal bed frames go for about $80 - $100. When buying a bed, you will want to lie down on the mattress you are considering for at least 15 - 20 minutes and in every position you sleep in. The reason you are giving it that amount of time is to determine whether it's comfortable for the way you sleep or you'll end up with sore spots. (Me, I sleep either on my back or on my side. The last time we bought a mattress set, I did not test it by lying on my side for a time - because I was self-conscious. We bought within our budget and it ended up being the most uncomfortable thing to sleep on. I'd wake up in the morning with my shoulder & hip sockets sore/aching because I'd slept on my side and the mattress was firm. We later had to throw more money at it and invest in a memory foam mattress topper just so that we did not wake up sore. The moral of my story is this: Take however long you need to determine if it's going to be a comfortable bed for you before you buy it.)

Case goods like coffee/end tables, dining tables, bookcases, dressers and nightstands can be safely purchased second-hand from thrift stores, resale shops, used furniture stores. Those stores are a great option if the things you need don't have to "match" or come in sets. A lot of times, you can find good quality wood furniture at very reasonable prices. If you go with this option, you may want to cultivate a few different sources because thrift/resale shopping can be very much feast or famine: A wide variety or slim pickings. IKEA book cases are relatively inexpensive. If you'd prefer to buy it new in a box and have the pleasure of putting it together yourself, the Sauder brand is good and the directions are easy to understand. You can get those from stores like Wal-mart, K-Mart, Target and such.

Another option for case goods, housewares and lamps & such would be garage sales.

I can safely vouch for the quality of the furniture at Big Lots because I know people who bought their living room set & bedroom set from them and have been very satisfied, plus they've had it for years and it's still going strong. Good luck to you and I hope that this helps.
