Well Im finally to that point in life where you start to shed off the furniture given to you or found by the road...
Last week I bought a brand new couch...
This week I bought a brand new table... Just need chairs now! Was just kind of cruising the scene and seen that Furniture Row (Oak Express or similar) was having a tent sale.
Ended up picking this solid oak table for $50. The base doesnt quite match but isnt to noticeable. The table top has a few little rough spots. Planning on buying 4 chairs and sanding it down and redoing it to match the chairs...

lol,
Tell your boss you need to start making some commision per sale
Gimme stuff is cool if its from rich people! Hell theres plenty of them in my neck of the woods. They go out and buy new furniture to fit the current trend. THen they have the "old" furniture put out by the street. Ive been through 3 couches now this way and the last couch was probably the worst...
But hey anything was better than the baby puke smelling one it replaced...

I hated the gimme stuff stage. Mainly because everything I received was outdated fugly crap that smelled funny.
