Need furniture?

Hell, I got a whole basement and garage full of it. FREE! Bring BIG truck.

Ask @Ultramaroon to verify, he has seen it -

I have a nice bed and dresser, a wardrobe, several tables, desks, and more tables. You just have to take it from Cali to Potato.

Really, just find a "Bubba" with a pickup and a chainsaw -

I would imagine that if mrs Leonardo has her way, the sink would never hold anything but a couple of coffee dirty mugs -

so it's not currently available this week, but there's a competing home improvement store in the midwest that routinely has 11% off sales--home depot's policy is to match any competitors price... they don't have an idaho store, so it likely won't work, but it might be worth trying a few of your receipts here to get something back.

Are you on sewer of septic up there in Idaho?

Septic. Have a guy coming out Tuesday to locate it and pump out.

Went to Oregon this morning. Not much in Ontario, except the pot store. Driving by, every plate in the parking lot was from Idaho,lol.

Because of no sales tax in Oregon or because of the pot store?

PS - I hope you didn't run across this fellow when you crossed back across the border, with your California plates and all. They are looking for "pot runners" -

Hair of the dog is the only thing that helps me when I’m in too deep. Just spent 7 days drinking with customers. I am still hurting from it.

if it shakes the counter, it may be loose underneath in its mounting. I've had one do that before.
