If you don't have enough money - buy items more than 2, 10 times cheaper on classified ad websites
If you're a student, a child, a pensioner, unemployed, or working alone, or saving by fully furnishing the entire apartment - you can buy everything by purchasing used items on classified ad websites. If, for example, you don't have a washing machine, refrigerator, tablet, mobile phone, or computer, or your items are very outdated - you can get various essential items for just $20-$50 on classified ad websites. Search for that. When others upgrade technology, furniture, and more - they sell old ones very cheaply instead of throwing them away. Also, refresh your wardrobe with nice clothes for just $10-$20 on specialized clothing classified ad websites (sold after 10 times of usage). You can upgrade everything - search and get a functioning tool (to find a job) - a computer, or a really good desk, wardrobe, large TV, rarely used vacuum cleaner for $60. If your room is very outdated, you can completely renovate it within a month's wage. For the price of one table, you can buy 3 similar used tables for the whole apartment.
You will save at least twice as much, and nicely and well (not just cheaply) renovating the entire apartment (nice TV stands, nice tables, desks, household appliances, trees for interior, kitchen sets, audio equipment, and more). Make decisions. Research - furnish not just one room, but the entire apartment. You can also use better items for the same price - for example, a folding screen phone or a music center instead of a small radio. Also, sell old items or give them away for free on classified ad websites, don't throw them away. Use and classified ad websites too.
