Things I Would Buy Used
The economy is a shambles. We all have to watch our pennies and make do with what we have for longer but there are certain things you just have to buy:
1. Books - of course! I love used bookstores - you never know what gem you'll find hidden under a pile of old Highlights magazines.
2. DVDs - these things are so cheap to make, I find it hard to spend more than 10 bucks for a movie I really want.
3. T-shirts - you gotta be careful with other people's clothes, even the "vintage" ones. I would never buy shoes, for instance, and maybe not even jeans - there are certain items that get a little too personal, if you know what I mean.
4. Lamps and wooden chairs - used furniture is okay so long as there's no fabric that could retain any kind of smell or cat hairs.
5. Dogs - I have longed for a dog for so long and I know that when I do get one, he'll be a rescue. No puppy mills for me.
Used items to stay away from : lingerie, appliances, computers, cell phones, food, and pillows. Anything you'd care to add to either of these lists? Share your money-saving ideas!
