This is a great example of how to actively find great deals on craigslist. Thanks for sharing.

I have used Craig’s List to sell many of my unwanted items and used it to find my current apartment. Love the service they provide

We bought the house in my header off Craig’s list, so we know the power of that site!

I didn’t know about using my feeder, though. Thanks for the great tip. I came here via Simple Mom.

I had no idea you could subscribe to a craigslist search. I’m so glad to learn something new!

I’ve never bought anything off of Craigslist, but i have sold things, and I would say I gave some people very good deals on the things I essentially wanted to get rid of. So yes, it is a great resource to find items that are probably still in pretty good shape, yet you can get on the cheap.

I love CraigsList!!! We just moved to a big metro area where there is a plethora of choices. We desperately needed a couch when we moved here–found a matching couch/chair set in perfect condition for $50! The lady had sold her house and just needed to get rid of them. We also found nice oak bar stools for our island for cheap too.
Hope everything continues to go smoothly with your home purchase. How exciting!!

I can so easily identify with this. We had too much furniture for our old apartment, but when we bought our home, we needed more. We bought several pieces of furniture from craigslist, including a brand new mattress and box springs for a lot less than in the stores. Craigslist is the first place I look for good quality items at low cost (or free).

Hi there. Have you ever tried Froogle, the Google shop search? I find it is usually good at picking up some bargains.
