Would you get a Kidney Table if it were Cheap

Post by mrsrandolph » Tue Nov 30, 2010 11:45 am

I have the chance to purchase a kidney table for $100. That is a good price. I LOVED this kind of table for groups when I was teaching. I think I would like it for HS my kiddos.

On the other hand, I have a good rectangle table my church lets us borrow for free.

What do you think?

If it's a good deal, I would get it and try it out. If it doesn't work for you, then resell. There have been so many times where I hemmed and hawed on a good deal, let it pass and then was kicking myself later. If something's a good deal, I want/need it, and I have the money I have learned to jump on it.

Craigslist has made it so much easier to resell things. The ability to resell lowers your risk considerably. :D

I think if you'd enjoy having a table to use each day, it would be worth it and I'd get it. :D Borrowing is free, but it is also inconvenient, and because you don't own it, you can't use it daily. :wink: Plus, I know it sounds strange to say - but once and awhile a new something like that can really be a ray of sunshine in my homeschooling day. Just yesterday, I was dragging my heels to get groceries for the umpteenth time, and my dear sister suggested switching grocery stores. I cannot even tell you the difference that made in my mood about getting groceries! I'll be shopping at the "new" store for awhile I'm sure - and then who knows? Maybe I'll be back at the "old" one for a "change" in a few years. :lol: HTH! :)
