Probably 60/wk.

1/6/2009 1:30:44 PM

i would imagine it would all depend on the quality of furniture you are looking for.

1/6/2009 1:31:44 PM

cant you rent a furnished apartment?

1/6/2009 1:32:39 PM

craigslist will be cheaper

1/6/2009 1:34:25 PM

yeah, I was going to recommend that if you don't care about the quality of the shit, just surf craigslist for a while. buy some junky furniture to get you through, then just leave the shit when you move. either that or put it back on CL and get your money back. Shit, if you know how to play CL, you can probably make money on the deal

are you trying to impress some broad that will be in town for the next 6 months?

1/6/2009 1:35:56 PM

the rule of thumb is that you can keep as much porch furniture as you can carry in the dark

1/6/2009 1:37:08 PM

no, the rule of thumb is that you may only beat your wife with a stick thinner than your thumb.

1/6/2009 1:37:53 PM

well yeah, if you get all metaphorical and shit

1/6/2009 1:38:16 PM

1/6/2009 1:38:21 PM

I rented a chair for about 6 months

I had all my other furniture, but I wanted a baller recliner and didn't feel like dropping over 1000 on it

So I went to that Aaron's place that you always see in the commercials, and all they had was shit

So I found this other place that rented higher quality shit and got the leather recliner with built in massage and an armrest fridge for like 46 a month

hell of a fucking deal, I couldn't believe it

I took pretty good care of it until near the end when I had big ass party and somehow the cushion got split right down the middle and some of the stuffing came out

I got my friend who is a professional sewer to sew it back up and I stuffed some stuffing from my comfortor in there as well

It looked good as new, and we returned it no questions asked, just had to pay a 30 dollar charge for general wear and tear

Overall, a good experience

I pay $200/month for:

Couch
Chair
2 Lamps
3 Tables
Queen Size Bed
Washer and Dryer

1/6/2009 4:22:39 PM

So you pay $2400 a year to rent stuff that you could have bought new for $2400? Brilliant!

[Edited on January 6, 2009 at 4:28 PM. Reason : witn 0% financing for the first year!]

1/6/2009 4:27:10 PM

Technically i dont pay, company pays for it. I travel too much to lug that shit around the country.

1/6/2009 4:33:54 PM

LOL

1/6/2009 4:37:01 PM

ive paid over 4k for this fucking ottoman

1/10/2013 7:45:15 PM

I would try and craigslist anything you can. Almost definitely much cheaper and you can probably even find better quality stuff than what you'd rent. Sell it at the end and cut your cost further.

I guess it depends on where you'll be as far as the quantity available on craigslist.

^^more than craigslist

1/29/2013 9:15:16 PM

you will get totally screwed over renting furniture from those rent places. It's like those check in to cash places.

...im trying to work some numbers to live on the west coast for 4 months

[Edited on January 29, 2013 at 9:28 PM. Reason : about 4 years ago i was doing the same thing ]

1/29/2013 9:26:54 PM

get an air mattress and some balls

1/29/2013 9:27:44 PM

im telling my wife to grow some balls right now

1/29/2013 9:30:26 PM

get a craigslist bed and couch. those west coast hippies will have plenty of shit on there. the rest of your needs can be filled by cinderblocks and plywood.

sack the fuck up. 4 months is nothing.

1/29/2013 9:32:18 PM
