Picture yourself dozing off on this...

This overstuffed denim sofa, available for $250 in Falls Church, looks like a comfortable spot for an afternoon nap. It has a pull-out bed—which the seller says is heavy, but fairly comfortable—and comes with the matching throw pillows. The seller’s cat left a few scratches near the bottom, but the piece otherwise looks to be in good shape.

Other good finds:
Kitchen table with wrought-iron chairs for $99
• Cherry armoire with seven drawers for $575
• Beveled gold mirror for $225
Wine rack with storage for six bottles and stemware for $45

Thanks, Craig!
