[vcf-midatlantic] Cheapest way to buy nice stools?

[Evan Koblentz]

I took Bill Deg's advice and went shopping tonight for (ahem) "stool 
samples". :)

Alise and I went to Ikea. We checked out the $5 stools. They're 
surprisingly strong, but quite small. Then we looked at $15 ones. 
They're larger, but they were wobbly (and I made sure they weren't just 
loosely assembled). Finally we found a $22 one that's more of a chair 
than a stool -- it's stable, adjustable height, and comfortable, but 
apparently it's only available in blue and red. Also it's plastic -- it 
looks like a Lego. :)  For that price we're better off getting the 
sturdier ones that I linked earlier (http://tinyurl.com/ja93zrf).
