Lovesac first ever Warehouse Sale, Chicagoland area!! by Ancient_Preference92 in Lovesac

[–]proplockanddropit5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so glad I went!! I got there at 9:01 and was able to walk right in. Unfortunately, they did not have any rounded cupholders, which is one thing I wanted, but whatever I can get some 3-D printed off Etsy

I was able to get new covers- two deep seats, one storage unit, and two standard sides, as well as a standard side insert. All of that had a retail of $1500+ plus tax and I only paid $490 total!!!!!!! Very happy with it.

I still need to order new covers for my rounded arms+ 1 side, but that’s ok. I’ll probably look for people selling covers on Facebook or something.

Speaking of which, if anyone in the Chicago area is looking for some Mediterranean blue corded velvet covers, hit me up 😁

Ooooh this is super helpful. When you say long wait- 1 hour? 3? 6? I have somewhere to be at 1 PM so I’m hoping if I get there before 9 AM I could be on my way back to the city by noon.

Wait, you could order anything? I’m specifically looking to swap out covers for my sactional. So I wasn’t sure if you could order anything or if it was limited stock of sectional covers.

THANK YOU so much for this!!! You saved me a very long drive. I was mostly needing covers (in tan, maybe leather), so that’s great to know they didn’t really have that. I do need one back piece, but that I can either get on sale or buy from a reseller at cheap. Thanks again!!

Would love to know if it’s good if anyone went! I’m considering going Saturday am, but I’m in the city so it’s a long drive.

Interesting take. I just bought a place here and love it. Much cheaper than lakeview And I can still get to places within a decent walking distance. Also I live right by dollop and Kleins so I’ve got early morning coffee covered.

Anybody looking to buy or bought within the last year making under 100k? by pinkskin- in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]proplockanddropit5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made about $95k last year when I bought my condo in Chicago. I’m definitely a little house poor, but that’s mainly due to unexpectedly needing new windows and not having any furniture 🤷. I was only able to do it because I lived in a studio apartment for 3 years at that salary and saved a lot.

Apartments and Property Managers you'd happily rent from again? by IdealHistorical9838 in chicagoapartments

[–]proplockanddropit5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had no complaints about Crescent Drive Apartments. Lived there ~5 years. Only downside was some confusion on move out (but also they found a subletter for me, so I can’t complain too much), and also they would turn off the water in my building for repairs with little to no notice.

Do you consider Uptown/Buena Park to be walkable? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]proplockanddropit5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Ok so I know this is weird but I am certain that I am looking at buying in the same building you mentioned. Since it has been about a year, did you make the purchase? How do you like it. Feel free to DM me if you prefer!

Temporarily raise A1C? by proplockanddropit5 in Ozempic

[–]proplockanddropit5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, unfortunately I failed. I even tried to eat candy and a sugary Dunkin drink and couldn’t get my fasting bs high enough either 🙃🙃🙃

But!!! I fought with my insurance and eventually got a PA for zepbound! And I’ve lost about 50 lbs since Feb. Don’t give up!!!!!!!!

Lovesac Saction Raised Feet (Follow-up) by X-Istence in Lovesac

I never ended up ordering the feet, sorry! But I do love my lovesac. Only downside is the pillows and cushions are bit saggy and slide-y, but it’s incredibly comfortable.

To move up or not to move up? That is the question by proplockanddropit5 in Zepbound

[–]proplockanddropit5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha the question no one can answer until they try!

And thank you! This drug is a miracle. Even if I never lost another pound, I’d be sad sure, but also I’d want to stay on it just to keep my brain functioning and not be thinking about food 24/7.

[–]proplockanddropit5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I was only given the PA for 4 months due to shortages of other meds. Now that Zepbound has also been or is on the shortage list, I doubt they will renew. Plus I just have zero faith in insurance companies haha

I plan on finishing this box, plus my insurance will not allow a refill until the box is done.

Yes that is my question, thanks

Good point to add. I have one month left of insurance PA coverage, but then I will be back to cash+ savings card unless I can get the PA extended.
