    Do any of you kynd folk have any idea where I can find an affordable, perhaps slightly used dining room table and chairs. I'm thinking some where below $300, but I know that's not a lot for furniture these days. I'm having good luck finding some pretty good finds, but I'm in need of a table and chairs...4 chairs would be best. Anyone have any links to a good site or something? Thanks for your time.

    I'd look for used: craigslist, classifieds, thrift shops.

    I once bought 2 really nice antique dining tables at an auction for $5. That is rare, but you often find things for cheap. Nice things, too. :)

    Garage Sale season is coming up.... There are always people getting rid of furniture, if you don't mind sacrificing a saturday morning driving around looking for something. You may be lucky to score a dining table ~ with matching chairs, even!

    I don't know about where you live but in Maine there are a lot of unfinished furniture places. They have tables for $100 and chairs for $25 a piece.

    You might even be able to get one for free with FreeCycle. look up a FreeCycle group for your home town, state on Yahoo groups. groups.yahoo.com

    flea markets, yard sales, thrift stores, etc. that's the only way I go for buying "new to me" stuff.
