 Hello and welcome to the vlog today's financial Friday and today is actually Jodi's fault. She's right here. Hey guys Her last was at your favorites video. It was yeah, okay, so her last favorites video I'm a link it down below She talked about the Facebook marketplace to like find furniture and like really cool things for like DIYs and stuff and Like I knew it existed, but like I didn't know it existed. So After clicking off of her video I went on the Facebook marketplace and I found this awesome Headboard that we are going to get today Jodi is very kindly driving me because my car is teeny tiny and wouldn't fit this headboard So we're actually going right across the border Which we're like crossing. Are we crossing? No, we're not crossing it right now. We're crossing. Are we? Oh, yeah We are do do do we're in Minnesota and let's see one two three now Um Anyway, this guy lives in Wisconsin. He's got this cool headboard. It's only $25. It is not the Color that I would like but again I am going to change that and do a little DIY with it eventually and this headboard is gonna go in the guest room So just wanted to say hello. Welcome to the financial Friday vlog And I will show you the headboard in just a little bit So we're at people's cafe now and we got the ham and cheese balls And we are gonna split something which I'll show you in a minute We got some ranch because ranch is life and I'm making some decisions on this is my flooring and then paint colors But I'll go into that a little bit later, but Jodi's been helping me. She's been helping. She's a good help. But yeah, we're gonna dive into this this situation This is one meal by the way at people's cafe How ridiculous is this? Are you excited about your scramble you can show them. Oh, yeah, so we ordered ham and cheese balls And Some of them are stuck together and this one has four stuck together I'm not even gonna tell you on camera what I said about it, but we're just gonna leave it at that So I totally forgot to take a vlog of the headboard, which is the whole reason for this little trip and Oops, let's go find it There is the headboard. It's a full size. It was $25. I'm very excited about it There are some little scuffs, but I'm gonna be painting it anyway, but I think this is so cool looking. I Think this is neat Yay, okay, so I am home now I was able to have some access to a my new home before I have closed on the home Because the owner is very very nice and has allowed me to go in there with a couple of contractors I just met some contractors over there which worked out perfect because I had that headboard that I was able to put in The guest room, which is awesome because that's what it's gonna end up living But I wanted to talk a little bit about Facebook Marketplace So as I said before when I was in the car with Jodi, I know that Facebook Marketplace existed I just never really thought to take another peek at it until Jodi's video Which I think I said I was gonna link below, but future Emily link it below first time I browsed in there I found that headboard and I just thought that was kind of cool and unique and different and kind of fun and whimsical Again, like I said, I'm gonna paint it So that'll be a project for later Which I will probably end up filming for you guys because I know someone's gonna want to see it somewhere But I have a couple of quick tips if you want to use the Facebook Marketplace Obviously make sure you know for your meeting. It's kind of difficult to do that with the internet down days So what I did is I brought a trusted friend with me plus she had a bigger vehicle So that's awesome as well agree upon a price prior to actually going I know a lot of times it's already priced But if you want to like haggle with the price then definitely talk about it beforehand and have exact cash He was asking $25 for it. So I went to the bank yesterday and I actually got $25 out. I didn't have any fives, which is why I had to go to the bank Obviously most of the time you want to meet like during the day and not like, you know Two o'clock in the morning to get a headboard normally But you know just do whatever it feels comfortable for you And if something feels kind of shady and weird it probably is shady and weird But all in all the transaction today went awesome and I had a blast with Jodi We had some fun car time which was cool and actually like it was a really easy drive to Wisconsin where we were it was just right over the border So it wasn't as far away as both of us anticipated which was kind of nice So then we were able to have a really really yummy brunch at people's cafe in Cambridge So that was delicious as well and we didn't really anticipate having a meal, but it totally hit the spot So definitely in the future I am going to be using the facebook marketplace for other items as I move into my home and Have other things I need or want or whatever So I'm going to definitely utilize that and if you guys have any questions about anything Feel free to link them or how do I say link them put them in the comments down below And I will get back to you This is definitely a really really great way to find some quality items on a budget and not totally break the bank So I'm going to jet for now. Thank you guys so much for hanging out with me for a little part of your day It means so much to me that you guys keep coming back every single video to watch more as I've said before More home related videos will be coming up very soon in the future So feel free to subscribe if you haven't already for those coming up very soon Once I close on the house, which will be in june I will actually go over all the numbers for you guys because I keep getting tons and tons of questions about that I will be sharing that with the class But that's not going to be until after closing because I want to go through every little thing with you guys Because the price of the house isn't the whole price that you pay There's lots of other costs involved That I just want to go through line by line and show you guys of what to expect If you are purchasing a home as well because I would have loved to see in a video like that when I first got into this So anyway, I'm gonna go. Thank you guys so much for hanging out and I will talk to you all in my next video. Bye guys
