I *love* seeing if I can get the things I need for free (or close to free).
I would love to hear the best "scores" (garage sales or other wise) people have come home with. I will start.
- I built my kitchen for $400! Thanks to dumpster diving, recycling, and garage sales. And to be honest It turned out beautiful.
- I built a desk from a plywood crate that turned out great.
- I always keep metal that I find abandoned. You never know when I could do a little metal fabrication to build something beautiful for the house. For example I took some 6" pipe and build a forge which I use to build wrought iron accessories for the house. Oh BTW I used an old rail road tie for my anvil.
