Excellent find. I'm currently revamping the entire first floor of my modest bungalow and I've assigned my daughter-in-law as the overseer of this endeavor... she has strongly recommended saving a wad of cash by shopping for as much used furniture and "whatnots" as possible.

@rinkydinkydoink Thrifting is a hobby and kind of a "lifestyle".
A lot of hit and miss. But when you find a couple awesome deals, you get hooked.
If you thrift regularly, something else kind of nice happens - if there is something you need or want and do not need something "exact" but are open to variety, eventually it will show up at the thrift store.
Some people think thrifting is somehow "icky" or "just for poor people" but there is no shame in doing it. Your wallet will thank you.
One thing though - do make sure to inspect the condition of stuff, usually it is okay but just to make sure.
