Man I bought a new chair

edited January 2008 in Social Entropy++
So today I ventured to my nearest second hand shop to purchase some new computer speakers. I ended up leaving with a reclining armchair


The best part?? £15! I have a lovely new chair and it was very very cheap

Has anyone else recently had a good bargain? Tell me about it

    Man i would seriously take a picture i swear but I dont have a camera or any way of sending pictures from my phone to my computer

    maybe i could email a pic from my phone to my computer. I will try but if it does not happen i have failed. unless someone wants to send me their number and then i will send them a picture of said chair and they can post it but man i just dont really care so much

    Sometimes when I end up at a furtniture shop, I think to myself, "Man, I could really use a good chair," or sofa or whatever. Then I realize that it's just going to be one more piece of shit that I have to move when I leave this apartment.

    Thanks for having me and all, but, why would you get a wicker toilet?

    I mean I'm half way through and billy comes in to get a glass of milk and he just stares at me with his eyes wide open

    ok drawing this recliny-chair is hard, and I don't seem to have a photobucket style account, so I will draw it with words

    It is green, a nasty green colour often spotted in British living rooms in the 70s and 80s (I think most brits here will get me) and it reclines, which is lucky cos otherwise I wouldn't've got it inside my house

    Worst word-painting ever

    I've been thinking about buyin one of them newfangled lovesacs. But man, $300 for a comfy chair seems outrageous, since that is the price of all my bedroom furniture combined.

    I mean, sure it's fun and all, but day-in day-out it tends to be a little uncomfortable

    not to mention distracting

    in fairness this isn't a massive chair and can be carried by one person, or easily by 2 people. The back of a Ford fiesta would do it

    I bought a plaid button up shirt at a thrift store for a dollar.

    I found two dollars in it's chest pocket when I left the store.

    Also it's fucking mega hella hot awesome.

    The first thing I do when I buy new clothes (which are pretty much always from a thrift store of some sort) is check all the pockets, just in case. I don't even want money, I want a good story about how I found a bullet in this old hole filled red blazer. That would make me happy.
