I know what you mean. I needed a new living room set...well, maybe not needed, but I wanted one. For some reason my eye caught a leather sectional in sort of a horse shoe shape, took my husband to see it, he said he liked it, so we bought it. Took me all of 2 weeks to realize I HATE the thing. I hate how it fits in the room, I have a wall of windows which it obscures to an extent, it has recliners on either end and those are comfortable, but everywhere in between isn't. There is no place to really lay on it. I'll never get my money back even if I tried to sell it out right. Dumb, dumb mistake.  |

Did I mention I hate the end tables we bought to go with it as well?? I do like the pub table we bought for the eat in kitchen. It's black accept for the cherry finish on top. I only got that right because the previous homeowners had almost the same set and I copied off them! I'm not much of a decorator. |

I kinda know what you mean I bought a computer because it was small and cute and actually fit in my hand, it was about the size of a PSP, well it was a lot of money and there was one a lot cheaper that would have been more benificial to me but I bought the tiny cute one instead just because I like the way it looked and it was so cute but i hate the thing too small to really see unless I put it on a monitor and it's not a great functioning computer either.  |

Hey there, Becky Dew. A washer and a dryer are an absolute "must have" in my opinion. Those delivery guys can sometimes work wonders. Write on.....  |

as for your exact situation though I remember there have been several times buying furniture that didn't fit or couldn't get into the house. |

Well thankfully no matter what, they'll be able to get it in the house. I was hoping for them to go through the garage....(less stairs) But the door doesn't appear to be wide enough. *smack self* But we have a large sliding glass door on the second floor that they can get it in. So I dunno. we'll see. Maybe if it comes to it, just get a second matching love seat for downstairs. And then when we move into our own home (And out of paying OTHERS mortgages) We could easily put something upstairs and then something downstairs. Cheaper than going the recliners we wanted  Heck if I know!  |

Kelly, I found a sectional that I really liked. She messed with the numbers and said there was no way it'd fit. I think that's a crock. But...thankfully I went ahead and listened, because they definitly wouldn't have been able to get it downstairs!!! |

Upon thinking about it a little further. We might have luck if we remove our washer/dryer and put them in the garage the day they get delivered. That way they have some more room on that landing to work with. hopefully they won't be cruel and with hold the entertainment stand until they deliver the couch/loveseat. Then I can ask the delivery people about it then.. |

I love the way you've told your story Becky, very entertaining. The furniture guys should manage. They really do work wonders, it's their job, and they see how it can be done far better than you or I. It's great that you are getting all of the things you've wanted for awhile. Better doing it the way you are, and not going into huge debt when you first get married. We did the same thing. We had everything second hand when we first moved in together. Gradually getting new stuff as we went. Enjoy your new furniture! Oh as for the cloth nappies. I was so into them with our first bub, no throw away nappy on his butt unless we went out. By the time the second one came along, I was a tad over it. In the end, a cloth nappy only went on when we'd run out of the others. LOL  |

Ohhh too funny Becky, like my husband buying the 746 pound wood stove, knowing he wouldn't be able to lift it and get it down to the basement {had to hire some BIG boys after trying for a few days} I am sure the guys bringing the furniture will figure out something But hey, isn't getting new stuff FUN!  |

Yeah, I brought my concerns up with Danny. He just told me 'you'd be surprised what those delivery guys can do...' So we'll see.  Aussie girl. Too funny. Their amazing. I started off I wasn't going to use them when out and about, or at night. Now I don't even have a disposable on hand for him at all......These things are amazing. (Yeah I'm easily amused!!) I figure if I stop buying them....then I might at some point actually come ahead $$ wise |
