- Bed frame
- Bed room like dresser and stuff
- minimum 62"-70" TV + home entertainment system
- Couches/ chairs/ coffee table for living room
- Dining room table and chairs
- Fridge and Stove (Stainless steel since all the rest are)
- Clothes washer and dryer.


All the wood stuff, I'd like in a dark wood since that would match my house best.

I would come, but!
1.) I have no Z (not like it's stopping Doba lol)
2.) It sounds like it's in the sticks.
3.) There's an SBC meet anyway.

^^ that's right, SBC HAND HOLDING MEET FTW!

i may cancel on the z-fest cruise on sat. too. not really in a long cruise mood. as sad as it sounds, part of the reason too is that i know the z will get dirty and i'm so freakin' lazy to clean her again

I don't think I will this year. Too much going on with the new house, and I start my new job first thing Monday morning. But I will think about it.

You know what company has amazing marketing? Charmin.
Everytime I grab a roll of TP and am walking to the washroom, I think of a bear, about to take a **** by a tree, holding a roll of Charmin. Even though the TP we have at work is ghetto
We use nice TP at home, but I think it's another brand. I think that baller Cashmere stuff. It's really soft.

dark wood is pretty "in" right now so there is lots of selection. since you're buying everything at once be sure to pressure the retailer for a nice deal.

i'm not sure what price range you're looking for. but here's places i like that are nicely priced without being too "ikea-ish":

http://www.structube.com/ (there's a store in toronto)
http://www.eq3.com/
http://www.upcountry.ca/ (new owners, last ones went bankrupt)

also crate and barrel is coming to canada (yorkdale mall) in sept:
http://www.crateandbarrel.com/

here is a manufacturer that i really like. they used to supply upcountry:
http://www.elitedesignfurn.com/

maybe you can arrange something direct with them

^ Good suggestions.
I found the stuff at EQ3 not to be to my liking. I felt it was, I don't know, pretentious? All the furniture seemed to have a visual design first attitude.
