The Misers love a bargain, and sometimes the best bargains are absolutely free. I love the ads for free stuff that you can find in some of the classifieds online: "Free clean fill dirt, must pick up", "Rocks, small, Glendora area, call after 8pm", and "Cardboard boxes, all sizes, free to first caller". It's good to know that there are still some super deals out there. But The Misers don't really need dirt, rocks, or boxes, so that doesn't help us much. What we were sorely in need of was a new queen sized mattress.
The other day, a friend of ours provided us with the above (a mattress, that is, brand new condition, firm, very lightly used) - plus he delivered it! It has been the best thing to happen to us all week, (aside from Barack Obama becoming our 44th president, of course). We'll be having sweet dreams all year long, and hopefully well into the future. Thanks from the Family Misers to the Family Moses.
