You can also look on facebook marketplace. But try to get the really rich nice areas that are nearby, sometimes they give away nice looking couches for free ;D

If you're looking to buy, I donno what kind of shops you got around you. We have a nebraska furniture mart here and that's what I'd suggest. Or big lots, those are always nice and comfy <3
If I wasn't afraid of bed bugs I would probably do that.

I recently bought a couch from a whole sale retail place.
Google something like cheap furniture near me and see what pops up. I spent 600 on a small sectional.

Most of my furniture is from The Khazana. My daughter room is from rooms to go kids. I have a few pieces from IKEA for the guest suite.

I’m no help here either all my couches were hand me downs. I got a nice leather couch with a couple scratches from a dog on it for free. I went to pick it up, he showed me the damage and was like do you still want it. Uh it’s free, that’s hardly noticeabld and it’s going in the kids playroom. Yes I still want it!

I say big lots also. Now of course it is not high end furniture but it's inexpensive and will do the job. I have a see from there. It's fine.

it was a $1600 couch, got it for $800, the cushions latch onto the couches they don't move, its big and comfy and modern....love it
I've never heard of that store but I like your technique.

their stuff is pretty much MCM style, you should google it, it may just be a Canadian thing though

did you find something you liked btw?

I’m about to be couch shopping too. Actually I’m basically going to be buying furniture for an entire house, all except my bedroom furniture and office furniture.

No! Not yet. I'm still looking but I'm getting annoyed. LOL Nobody ever sits in there so I'm going to take my time so I don't end up with yet another couch I absolutely hate.
