JOSS ME!
we just got an amaaaazing deal on a new furnace. First we were excited to gtt it at cost, no labor. Then we figured out that we got a $500 rebate for getting a high efficiency furnace. THEN we were told the furnace we were getting was on sale from $1,200 to $900! So after the rebate we got our new furnace for just $400!!! Such a blessing since it was an unexpected project! We found it needed replacing while putting in central AC.

Like many others, we also found our home the day before it went on the market. We had been looking for months and found nothing that was really suitable, when our agent called us after attending a private “agent” showing. He said it was perfect, and he was right. More character than we’d ever hoped for, all of the things we wanted in a home, and not even at the top of our price range. We put in our offer before the listing even went public, and closed on our house just a month later. We’re still happy here!

JOSS ME! Our biggest score was our stainless steel fridge, grabbed at over 50% off from the Sears scratch & dent outlet, due to a small dent on the side – which is against the wall and not even visible anyway!
Emily says
JOSS ME!!
Chrissy says
JOSS ME! Getting the house that we are in right now. We shopped for a year to find what we were looking for in the area we liked. We made an offer on this place and found out our offer was accepted even though there was another offer on the house.
Sara says
JOSS ME! :)

Find a great deal on our house in a great location was the best!

Joss Me! …
My luckiest moment was just finding our apartment for the rent that we did. With all of the added free furniture from family and friends, I have a great blank canvas to start decorating on :)
Heather says
JOSS ME!!!
We are getting ready to start looking for our first house… here’s wishing for lots of lucky moments!

joss me!
no home yet… but we have scored lots of mini deals for our 1 bedroom apartment in downtown!
Brianna says
Joss me!
Luckiest moment…convincing the rents to give me the antique dining room table they weren’t using (which is beautiful), and then finding chairs that match on sale at a nearby store!
Jess says
JOSS ME!
After shopping for a dresser for weeks on end for our baby’s room, we finally decided to go with a more affordable cube storage system. Wouldn’t you know that every single piece of it was on sale when we finally decided to buy?! It was fate.
Lindsay F says
Joss Me!
I was lucky enough to be the recipient of my grandmother’s bedroom set. A simple change in the hardware and not only do we have gorgeous furniture – but the largest dresser will be used in our baby’s room! We are painting it dark aqua! Once the nursery is done, photos will be sent!

JOSS ME!
My lucky house moment—getting our first (and current) house. We had bid and lost on two houses already and I was on the road when my husband saw this one. He said it was THE one, and without seeing it I told him to go for it. He bid, we got it, we danced. I feel lucky every day waking up in this house.

Whitney says
JOSS ME!
Hmmm…my luckiest moment hasn’t happened yet. I thought we were lucky to get the house that we are renting currently, but now that we have been there for 3 years, I am pretty close to hating it! The hubby and I are saving up to buy a house in the next year or so… So I think we must be saving our luck for that event!
(Side note: Just noticed that little smiley at the bottom of your site, uber cute.)
Abby says
“JOSS ME!”
We were lucky that the offers we made on the first two houses we fell in love with didn’t work out, even though we were heartbroken at the time. We couldn’t imagine being in any other house or location than we are now. I guess the third time’s the charm! =)
Jess says
JOSS ME! i have yet to find a dream home or dream piece of furniture/household item. i’m still dreaming and saving my pennies until then!
Alesia says

I just bought $50 Pop Art Spoons from there! I can’t get enough of this site, really.
My luckiest find? Probably my bedroom set. Its the only furniture from the house I don’t want to get rid of yet! :D
Susan says
JOSS ME! My luckiest moment was gaining some free furniture from my Mom! Score!
Allie says
JOSS ME! My friend didn’t have room for her old Drexel nightstands in her new place so she gave them to me for free! After a coat of primer, fun Tiffany blue paint and some brushed nickel hardware they’re awesome!
Sabrina says
JOSS ME! My luckiest moment was finding out my sunroom was heated, score sexy sunroom to diningroom transformation!
Cara says
JOSS Me!!!
Mallory says
Joss Me!!
Hubby and I lucked out big time right before we got married. My parents had just bought all new appliances for one of their homes and then decided they were going to completely demo the kitchen. We scored their barely used appliances for our new home!
Jessi says
JOSS ME!
Oh baby there have been plenty of joss moments for my hubby and I…
Personally, i think the jossiest would be the location of our house. we have to live within the city limits (for our jobs) which can be a real challenge for two country mice. BUT, our little abode is surrounded by trees, on the end of one dead end road is OUR little private dead end road… with all the wildlife we can handle.
it was love at first sight…
thanks so much (hope i win!) :)

Joss me please
Cassidy mickelsen says
Joss Me! RC Wiley was having a clearance sale. They had too many mirrors so they said all were on sale for $25. Most of the mirrors were just simple ones to put above a dresser, but we found one that sold for over $800 if ornantely carved wood, and just beautiful. Everyone who sees it comments on it. Score! Even the sales lady couldn’t beleive we were getting the mirror for that amount. I guess they didn’t really they had that on ein the bunch.
Lou says
JOSS ME! My luck seems to come in the form of vintage finds! Down here in Georgia we have awesome vintage stores with great prices.
Jennifer W says
JOSS ME!
I scored an amazing vintage record player cabinet at a yard sale for $5.
Judy says
JOSS ME!
My luckiest moment was completing a bunch of first time home improvement projects with my best friend with no fingers lost, no blood shed and friendship still in tact.
Katherine says
Joss me!
Luckiest moment was having our landlord reimburse us for paint so we can cover up these granny walls!
Julie M says
Joss Me!
My luckiest moment was finding the most amazing pie safe on Craigslist and my best friend convincing me that I needed to buy it. It’s my favorite purchase ever and houses all our children’s games.
Candice says
JOSS ME!
Jessica says
“JOSS ME!”
We feel so lucky to have found a short sale that we love and were patient enough to wait for it. From the moment we saw it, it just felt like home. Now, we just need to fill it up! Coming from a tiny one-bedroom apartment, it looks like all of our furniture shrunk. LOL :)
Laura Wooten says
Joss Me! We are moving and I need some jossing!
Laurie says
JOSS ME!
My parents have hooked us up with some amazing pieces. I have this beautiful 1902 tea chest (a big one that they used to ship tea in) that every person who walks into my house covets. I also have this table that my dad made from an antique work table topped with a gorgeous butcher block. So, yeah, my parents are awesome, they have fantastic taste, and they love to give me stuff. I’d say that’s more than just a little bit lucky.
Elise says
Joss me!
Settling on our house just in time to move in after our Honeymoon was a sweet little bit of luck.
Kendra says
JOSS ME!
We recently moved into my mother-in-law’s old house. She was born and raised here and she raised her own children here. After she moved out, my brother and sister in law lived in the house for nearly 20 years. We recently decided to buy it from my husband’s mom and fixing it up has been a blast! There’s something really sweet and sentimental about living in a house that has been in the family for so long.
