Cool! MS has so many furniture places! I need living room furniture SO badly. Of course that's not as high on my priority list as food, electricity, and water, so it will have to wait a while, LOL! But, I'll keep them in mind for another day.

Jon would probably know the people that own the place. When you're ready to go buy-- keep them in mind. They DO have great deals! They have a sectional set that I wanted so badly.. but it wouldn't fit in my living room.

Re: How to Save Money
I am shampooing my carpets today. A few years ago I bought my own shampooer. It has already paid for itself. I used to rent shampooers to do this. Back then it was about $40.00 for a day's rental (plus the headache of picking it up and feeling like I HAD to do all of my house in one day). I paid $80.00 for this shampooer (It was a demo model.) Granted, it doesn't clean as well as industrial ones but I do it more often. I love having one!

I asked him about it the other day and he said he wasn't sure where I was talking about!

Sure! It might be cheaper to buy one than drive here though!

Re: How to Save Money
Oh, BTW, I got the carpet shampoo free in a freebie box at a garage sale this summer!
