Furniture from Goodwill

Angeles and I moved a couple weeks ago to Rexburg! 😄 We haven't really told many people that we're here yet.

We spent the first few days buying furniture, like a bed and a couch. We both wanted desks and chairs for those desks, so we could have an office. We've been keeping an eye open on Facebook Marketplace, but we were never fast enough to get the things we wanted. Angeles got a hired for a stay-at-home job two days ago and so we decide to work a little harder to find a desk for her. Our budget was $100.

So we went down to Idaho Falls and began going to thrift stores to find one. The first place we went to didn't have a desk that would work. The second place we looked up turned out to not even be a thrift store. It was just someone's house. We don't know how that happened. The next two places were closed 😞. Then we tried Goodwill and we found a desk! Not just one desk, but two and two chairs to go with it! and a small bookshelf :) All for $53! Now, that's a tender mercy :) They aren't in the best condition, but it's was an awesome bargain despite that they are a little beat up. Thankfully, they also all fit in the van, so we didn't need to make a second trip to IF.

As you can see, the desks fit pretty perfectly wall to wall in our office. 😄 Angeles and I were saying how next time we need some furniture Goodwill will be a good place to check :) Just one huge tender mercy. We are so blessed.
