I'd say that qualifies for this thread

Since we moved 11 years ago and switched to a king-size bed, we've been using IKEA pine nightstands originally purchased for our (now adult) children's rooms. Our dressers are beautiful Scandinavian-style teak that we've had 30+ years, so it never was a good look. I've searched for something better off and on but never found anything I liked that seemed reasonable price-wise. Last week, a random ad popped up on the web with an interesting-looking teak nightstand, so I checked our two local contemporary furniture store websites and found a very promising option. Checked it out in person and ordered them immediately; picked them up yesterday (to save the $85 delivery fee - I'm still cheap even when I'm blowing that dough). They are awesome!!!

How exciting....good for you!I’m buying a lake house. Why? Because I wanted a place with a pretty view sometime in my life! Now’s that time.
So I guess all popup ads are not worthless!

Beautiful! I love teak, but nothing in our bedroom is teak.
Do you have a link (google won't "image search" on the images on this site)?

You can always download the image, then use image search based on the file from your computer. Doing that, I found this for you: https://www.copenhagenliving.com/product_detail/bedrooms/beds/1598992
This is my first post to this thread. Normally we're pretty [-]cheap[/-] frugal but here we go...
$42k out the door, it's a 2021 Promaster 2500 with lots of options: swivel seats, electronic rear view mirror, tow package and more. Expecting to put about $30k more into it to outfit it for travelling.
We ordered it mid-January and it arrived last week. We were surprised because we were told to expect it mid-May. Promasters are in really short supply due to Amazon and the USPS buying so many for their fleets.
The little Nissan in my profile picture is for sale, lots of wonderful memories and I will be sad to see it go.
A new adventure begins!

Very nice, I look forward to what you intend for fitting it out. I do my own custom woodwork so I would definitely have some ideas for you there.This is my first post to this thread. Normally we're pretty [-]cheap[/-] frugal but here we go...

While this was a BTD event, it's also a happiest moment candidate.
Decided to order a treat late last week, stone crab and Key West Pink shrimp from the place we've patronized in the lower keys on visits (they supply a lot of the restaurants as well). Haven't been for a few years.
Well, Thursday my order arrives, and it's missing the shrimp and has only about 75% of the crab! But the packer did add some smoked fish dip I hadn't ordered this time, but did last time, since they forgot my mustard sauce last time (he looked up my previous order). Sounds like they got some things out of order because I wasn't the first one to call in with an order error.
Tough to get on the phone that time of day, but I got a guy who handled the orders. Offered to give me money back or send another shipment my choice. The overnight shipping/packing is NOT cheap! I said I'd prefer to have the order, and he said fine.
So, Friday my supplemental order arrives. He threw in an extra 2 pounds of stone crab and a pound of shrimp (over my original order). And more fish dip and mustard sauce. Got about an extra $100 worth. Plus they paid the second shipping, which isn't cheap $100+. Needless to say I'm a happy camper.
Will be finishing off the stone crab and shrimp for dinner tonight (which happens to be my birthday, the reason I ordered in the first place, since it fell on Sunday I got it early). When I opened the second pack and weighed it, I told DW - "Happy Birthday TO ME!"
Have eaten a lot of shrimp and crab in the past 4 days, but not tired of it.
Van for travel or for business?
If for travel, does it have beds or a bathroom? Kitchenette?
Otherwise, why lug a large vehicle around if you're going to sleep in motels or hotels or Airbnbs?
Stone Crabs - You Rock Baby!
Been a long time. Next up as the season will be ending soon. Much cheaper to send the crabs to me compared to sending me to Florida.
