Re: furniture needed, cheap or free!
Have you tried Freecycle? Plenty of people give away good furniture they no longer need. Definitely worth a try.

Re: furniture needed, cheap or free!
I have a very comfortable chair. It would be fine with a cheap throw over on it. You would need a small van or estate car to collect and we are in Wilpshire Blackburn

Re: furniture needed, cheap or free!
You could also try ringing Maundy Relief. They help people on benefits etc I think. Might be worth a try.

Maundy relief send you to Hufs.. If Hufs dont have what you need then Dorothy may be able to it for get you but you have to try Hufs first.

Ah right sorry I didn't know that.
I think they have just opened a furniture shop on Abbey Street. Not been in it just saw it when drove past the other day. |

Re: furniture needed, cheap or free!
Exactly. When I went the stuff was disgusting and I wouldn't set foot in the place again. I'm far from a snob but I wouldn't have let my dog sleep on the stuff I saw.
Did you ring up and complain? Surely if you paid for the stuff then they should have brought it?? |

Re: furniture needed, cheap or free!
I think its quite unfair if you're complaining about the quality of stuff from HUFS. They are a charity and selling used items for an extremely good price. They cannot control the items that are donated. There are many used furniture stores that operate as a business and make much more profit.
The items that were missing, well yes, that is a problem but if they were replaced, then thats something. I do think credit should go to places like this that do help people, and I know many people that were extremely happy and grateful to HUFS. |
