Two words.....garage sales. Its amazing the good quality stuff you can find. From pots and pans to furnature theres nothing you wont eventually come across. My dad got a set of 5 pots for 40 bucks and none of them alone was worth less than 45. Most of the art work i have on my walls is from garage sales

Dude, I'm set for shit to hang on the walls. lol I've got my creative writing certificate, a Masters of the Universe poster my brother made when he was taking graphic design. It's in a nice wooden frame. Plus I have a large street sign that says Banff Avenue, which I my sister got me for my birthday. I've got a Godfather poster and a Sopranos poster, both are laminated. lol
I definitely have enough shit to hang on the walls. lol
As for garage sales... some times I curse being a materialistic person, but it's true. lol I'd be a little hesitant to buy pots and pans at a garage sale. I'd probably buy stuff like tables and that, as long as they were in good shape.

two singles (twins) make up a King. In the old days you could shove two twins together and there was a little foam "T" that you could put in between to keep your ass from falling into the crack.
Best of luck man! First time out, buy cheap then upgrade as necessary.

Well you hit everything I would need except for a corkscrew - there is no easy replacement for one. Oh and Duct Tape. Amazing what you can do with Duct Tape. http://www.stuckatprom.com/contests/prom/
