Thanks, I completely forgot about craig's list. Because of not being able to drive I have always been more of a walk to the actual thrift store kind of person and these online opportunities do not even occur to me. And we will have IKEA nearby, you can even get there by bus (if you don't count walking around half a mile, lol)! Our previous furniture was mostly from IKEA and after 5 years the only thing with wearmarks was the tabletop because I also did artwork there.
It is definately heavily populated area but at least a year ago freecycle was very slim on the actual daily life useful stuff. I will check craig's list out
