shopping advice (mattress, bicycle)

[adrian-turtle.livejournal.com]

Can any of you recommend a good place in the area, where a newcomer might buy a mattress or futon for a reasonable price and have it delivered fairly soon? My new housemate is not on LJ, and is about to go to sleep on my couch. He will be shopping without a car, when the buses are on a holiday schedule, though he can get to Wellington and Lechmere almost as easily as Davis.

Thinking of being without a car, do any of you know of a good place to get an inexpensive bike for basic short-distance commuting and hauling small amounts of cargo? Perhaps secondhand?

Basics between Harvard and Central delivered a couch we bought. They offered same day delivery.


Bike Boom in Davis has used bikes. I liked their selection, but I ended up with a different bike from The Bicycle Exchange in Porter.

Thanks. That's good to know.
