Just to let you know when I first moved out I was cheap! You know those plastic shelf sets you can get for the garage, well they where my bedroom dresser and TV stand.
Some nice wicker lawn furniture looks good in the living room as well, is durable, comfortable and cheap. Gives the place a vacation cottage feel.
Take the mattress and boxsprings and you don't even need a bedframe.
Once you see what the future brings then you can upgrade.
