furniture purchased in yards sales,garage sales etc.,etc.. To be honest with you, my neighbors went this way 100%, and their place is awesome. Plus they moved to Puna from the east-coast, and it wasn't feasible for them to ship all their furniture. Just to costly in my opinion to do that. If I remember correctly, I paid 3 grand or more to move from Honolulu to Puna. The majority of my charge was from the weight of my belongings.

Anyway, you'd be surprise on how much nice stuff you can find here cheap. But if you feel you need new products, the Big Island is very limited on furniture stores...especially on Hilo/Puna side.

Without these remarkable people the island would be nothing. With them it's a carnival. They are generous,courageous and comic. They awake each morning to a fresh day that has forgiven the previous day's outrages. In the pursuit of money they are irresponsible. In the pursuit of happiness,dedicated. They are the perpetual adolescents of the ocean, the playboys of the pacific.
