[quote=Anonymous]I’d judge you if you were upgrading an already good couch just because you want something new. If you have an IKEA couch that’s at the end of its life then yes upgrade! Cheap crap is wasteful (Wayfair and world market are worse offenders than ikea in that regard in my opinion) also, Anthropologie may look good but once you read reviews you realize a lot of it is actually not that well made. For what it’s worth we only make 105k, and have outfitted our home with thrift and ikea. There is amazingly nice furniture available on Craigslist and at estate sales. I got my couch at the crate and barrel outlet in Alexandria after a second markdown for $750. Just because I’m poor by dcum standards doesn’t mean I can’t be a snob and have taste. If I had your income I would be buying even higher quality stuff yes, but I still enjoy the hunt of deals and vintage. Enjoy shopping, don’t go the easy online crap order route.[/quote]
