JOSS ME! Luckiest home improvement moment: my inlaws were moving out of a great house at the same time we were looking to purchase – so they sold it to us (and gave us the ‘family discount’)!

We scored a HOUSE FULL (two bedroom sets, dining room set, and additional chairs) of beautiful mid century modern furniture on Craigslist for under $500!
Helen says
JOSS ME! We had just moved into a new apartment and were desperately lacking furniture and money, and our landlord gave us 2 couches and a recliner, for FREE!

My husband and I definitely found the house of our dreams the day it went on the market! we never thought we’d get so luck ON OUR FIRST HOME!

Some of my luckiest household moments are the scores I find at Goodwill! My husband is slightly annoyed by my spray painting habit by this point.
Also, we found our house after only a few weeks of looking and got the deal done in a span of about 4 hours!

I’m lucky enough to have a father with a construction business, so he’s been working on projects at my new house for free!

I can’t recall a “lucky” moment, (we rent) but if I win, this will take the cake!
Christy says
JOSS ME!
And I face a lot more home improvement disasters than lucky moments, lol.
laura says
JOSS ME! The first apartment I tried to lease fell through, so I ended up with my 2nd choice…I’ve been here 5 years now and love it! It ended up working out perfectly (the other one would have been too small, even though it had hard wood floors)!

My luckiest moment was when my uncle decided to put all his stuff in storage and travel the world….leaving behind his Barcelona chairs for my apartment!

I’m gonna go ahead and say that just finding our house was our luckiest home moment! It has a great layout, the original hardwood floors, just great bones in general :) Plus it is in a great neighborhood and down the street from my sister!

I went garage saleing on Saturday and I found two wingback chairs that went perfectly with our living room for 25 apice. I got them both for 40! It was awesome. Then when my Hubby took the old couch (that was replaced by the chairs) to goodwill he found a lovely bookcase for 29 that would work in the room too. Two scores in one day and all together under 80 bucks. :)

My luckiest house moment was finding our house that had been on the market for a while and managing to sell our home before our new house was sold. (Another offer on it even fell through during this time.) I just keep saying it was meant to be ours and everyone who comes over agrees.

My luckiest home move is living with my boyfriend Ryan! He builds the prettiest furniture (TV table and dining room table). I am one lucky girl! =)

My luckiest moment is when I have a vision for a home improvement project and it comes together just as I had imagined!

luckiest find was when my husband found the perfect card catalog (after I had been looking for years) & it was affordable. I love it so!
Roya says

Luckiest moment was finding a rental that would let us keep our chickens. I love our girls and can’t imagine life without em!
Michael says
JOSS ME!
Ngoc says
JOSS ME! We got our house as a short sale. It needs lots of work, but we’re in the best school district which we didn’t think we could afford.
Lisa says
“JOSS ME!”
Luckiest home DIY was having a friend & her husband help me re-install my shower after I tried to ‘do it myself’. Sometimes, you just have to know your limits and ask for help!

JOSS ME! I think our luckiest home improvement experience was not really improvement, but a repair. The bath faucet in our guest bathroom fell off the wall (yes, just fell off), and we were convinced it was going to take hundreds of dollars for a plumber to fix. But luckily our next door neighbor dabbles in minor home repair and he told us all we needed was a new faucet and some plumbers tape. A trip to Lowes and $9 later we had a shiny new & functional faucet! The homeowner Gods really showed us some mercy that night.
Nicole C says
JOSS ME!!!
Our luckiest home improvement moment was when we inherited MUCH of our home furniture and furnishing from generous family and friends when first moving out on our own!
I don’t know what we would have done without them!
Cher says
Joss ME! I still live in an apartment and don’t have any interesting stories yet :( Awesome giveaway by the way! Dying for the Thomas Paul rugs they posted today, or some chesterfield sofas!
Melissa G. says

I’ve found some great stuff on craigslist. My favorite was a ceramic tile table with iron legs and four chairs for $115.
Leigh-Ann says
JOSS ME!
When my hubbie and I went looking for a new couch–we wanted one in red that was wide enough for cuddling–we just so happened to find the perfect one in the perfect shade in the window of furniture store!
Anna says
Joss me! Please :)

My most recent bout of luck was West Elm bringing back those cute ceramic owls. I was SO sad when they stopped selling them, but now they’re back, and I bought one!

All 3 of my favorite pieces of furniture are vintage and came to us for free. MCM modern dining table and a pair of MCM chairs belonged to my grandmother and my fabulous yellow and white mod-style china cabinet was free from my former boss!
Allison says
Joss Me! My husband just discovered a perk at his non-profit publishing employer- free canvas printing. So for the cost of 1x2s and the effort of wrapping them himself, we now have large, beautiful photos to display, including an 18″x 24″ from our wedding day!

My luckiest moment came when we were searching for a new couch set. My boyfriend and I found a set in a furniture store that we fell in love with. However, I’m stingy and didn’t want to pay full price. I scoured craigslist, and found the exact same couch set for HALF THE PRICE! It was only a year old, and the previous owner took really good care of it. Needless to say, we jumped on the opportunity! Now I have a couch that I can melt into with my puppies each day when I get home from work!
