Not IKEA: 4 Places To Buy Good & Cheap Furniture So You Don’t Have To DIY

When it comes to sprucing up your new home, IKEA is typically the first place that pops into mind. There’s no doubt that it offers cheap furniture at decent quality.
However, this option is sometimes not ideal, because you’ve got to put the furniture together yourself. Also, when friends and family start spotting the same furniture as you, it gets a little too predictable.
In order to differentiate your home interior from your family and friends, here are four places to go furniture shopping at without burning a hole in your pocket!
