Curbside score

I was coming home last night and a couple was moving out of their house a couple blocks away. As I passed, there was a sign on a pile of furniture that said "Free" I pulled over and got a nice dresser and a couple of chairs that show some wear, but will be great for outside. I also took a big box of odds and ends. I'll use a few of the things, but will take the rest down to the local church charity store. I love it when I come across surprises like this. It is a pick up for the entire week!

I have a huge!!! cupboard in the garage that I collected from a Bank that was relocating.

When we next have to move I'm not sure we will be able to shift it again. Meanwhile there is so much stored in it that we'd be lost without it!
