Since it’s the end of the week lets label this one the Steal Of The Week. Sure it’s not the most amazing dresser, but for $10 it’s good enough. [CL]

Why don’t you come sit by my bed? I could rest drinks on you and stuff you full of past editions of
The Economist. What da ya say?
What a steal this is though, for serious. $40 for a really nice looking night stand. If things like this popped up everyday IKEA would be lobbying for a ban on furniture reselling.[CL]

Do you ever see flowers in the supermarket and think, I should totally buy some flowers for the kitchen. Then remember, wait I don’t have anything to put them in. Well, here’s your chance to get something for those flowers. For only a tenner there’s six vases with three distinct styles. So now you can think to yourself, why not? [

If you’ve spent any bit of time wading through the craigslist ads for mid century furniture and decor, you’re well aware of the fact that there are quite a few items of extremely high quality as well as – dare I say it – historical significance. Something like
this comes to mind. However here at Mudlark Global Headquarters we find it hard to plop down over 6 months worth of rent money on a pair of authentic Eames Lounges, the same goes for
$1500 credenzas and
$400 Lamps. No matter how nice they might be, and no matter how hard we try to convince ourselves they’re feasible purchases, they’re simply too little bang for our meager buck.
Which is why our objective here (and throughout all of life really) is to find the things that occupy the space where price and quality meet (or where price is way lower than the quality preferably). Which brings me to our specimen for today. A Herbert Inc. office chair from 1967, in good condition and perfectly reflecting the style that we love so much. All for the low, low, price of $55. [CL]

It might only be Sunday, but I want to say we’ve already found the deal of the week. This queen size teak platform bed has built-in side tables and two built-in headboard lights. Some TLC might be needed, but for $35 bucks, this thing’s cheap cheap cheap! [
