I have a wooden nightstand that I use as a TV stand, some plastic shelving, a tray table, and a borrowed folding chair. More furniture was available to me but this was all I wanted. I sleep on the floor and I find it more comfortable than a bed. Frugal Miser – I don’t have much in the way of furniture.

To actually live with less than 100 would be impossible unless I resorted to the "grouping" you referred to. I have more than 100 pieces of silverware/dishware/pots and pans alone if left ungrouped! Don't you have any furniture? I sold my living room furniture and thought that was extreme. I still have a bed, dresser, desk and bookshelves. Then the garage: tools, vacuum cleaner, cleaning supplies. Wow...there's no way all that would fit into my car. Pray tell how you do it (specifically around the larger items such as a bed)... are you renting a furnished unit or something? Wow… and here I was posting about getting rid of 100 items in December.

I have two cartons of books sitting here, that I was going to sell cheap to a used bookstore that is opening locally. Unfortunately, the person who was supposed to come and get them never bothered. Your post inspired me to finally start putting them up on half.com this afternoon, so thanks! I, too, have been trying to get rid of a lot of possessions.
