I hear ya - it’s crazy.

What it has also done is raised the prices on Kijiji or any decent used furniture. People are paying a lot more for the used items than they used to, because nobody wants to wait for a year to get a new sofa or chair.

I managed to snag a small new dining room table and chairs that were in stock, plus a bought one chair from the showroom, but other than that, I’m waiting. Grrrrr.

Apparently used cars are far more expensive, as new ones are unavailable. It would be nice to go back to the good old days when there was so much available they were all competing with each other!

Good for you, for the nice dining set snag.

I stopped into a fabric store, today, and they also have a few accessory pieces, lamps, etc.

I spotted a small end table and found out they were 20% off. (I thought...what??? don’t you people know what’s going on with Furn/accessories, right now?) So, I grabbed the cutest little round table that will work perfectly.

If you see something on display, or they have in stock....and, you like it....grab it! As you have seen and proven.

Hmmmm....maybe I should list the pieces I’m replacing on eBay, or Nextdoor! 🤔

Just saw a commercial for Caravana.....they normally sell NEW cars....they want to buy YOUR car!! I bet they do :)
