Sofa + matching chair, 2 coffee tables, set of drawers = ALL MUST GO! – $200
I live in Lancaster, PA, so you’ll need some kind of transportation back to your place. I live in a third floor apartment; you’ll also need to bring people to help you get the stuff down the stairs. Photos are available upon request. I MUST get rid of these items by May 30; prices are negotiable! Thanks; I hope to hear from you soon!
SOFA:
The sofa is 84″x35″x24″ total. Seating area is 70″x21″x9″. Cost: $100 plus you coming to pick it up and get it out of my apartment.
CHAIR:
The chair is 34″x35″x24″ total. Seating area is 23″x21″x9″. Cost: $50 plus you coming to pick it up and get it out of my apartment.
DRAWERS:
The set of drawers is white; three small top drawers and six larger lower drawers; 45″x33″x15″ total. Cost: $35 plus you coming to pick it up and get it out of my apartment.
SQUARE TABLE:
The square coffee table is in decent shape; some knicks on the legs, but nothing a little polish won’t fix; 28″x28″x20″ with room for storage underneath, if necessary. Cost: $25 plus you coming to pick it up and get it out of my apartment.
RECTANGULAR TABLE:
The rectangular coffee table isn’t in as good shape as the square since it’s seen more use, but it’s sturdy and with a table cloth or runner will do just fine in any home; 50″x21″x14″. Cost: $35 plus you coming to pick it up and get it out of my apartment.
OTHER OPTIONS:
Sofa + chair only: $125 plus you coming to pick them BOTH up and get them out of my apartment.
Everything: $200 all told plus you coming to pick ALL items up and get them out of my apartment.

PayPerPost actually pays

I’ve had my ups and downs with PayPerPost. Although I’m relatively loyal (meaning, I write decent posts and do what I’m supposed to do), ![[info]](http://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
5reasons is–unfortunately–a second-class blog because it’s hosted by LiveJournal rather than having my own domain name or whatever. I was so irritated one day that I took a screen shot of the PPP website to prove that, at that time, there were no opportunities at all for “little bloggers” like myself. Still, when I signed on last September, I wasn’t honestly expecting for my membership to go anywhere or to actually be paid anything for the posts I did write. Thankfully, I stuck it out, and was surprised one day in October to see a payment in my PayPal! As it turns out, I can make money blogging, and even though it’s not TONS of $$$ from the Big Opps, it’s still something. Every penny counts!

No more ice floors!

Hate waking up in the middle of the night or early in morning and feeling the shock to your system when you step onto ice-cold floor? Underfloor Heating by WarmFloors supplies a revolutionary underfloor heating system so thin it hardly makes an impression on floor height at all. Underfloor heating goes well with wood and laminate flooring and has many advantages over traditional heating systems.
First, it frees up wall space since WarmFloors’ flooring is literally hidden right under your feet and there’s no need for radiators and other unsightly warming systems.
Second, underfloor heating provides fast-acting heat when in use, filling each entire room with warmth from the bottom up (especially effective since heat rises).
Third, WarmFloors includes a ten year guarantee with each installation; the underflooring is designed to be durable and robust while at the same time less than half a millimeter thick!
Finally (and most notably!), underflooring eliminates the discomfort of walking on cold tiles, stone, or marble.
The system is most popular in bathrooms, kitchens, sun rooms, and conservatories, but can be installed anywhere where wood, stone, or marble floors are being fitted.
