Michelle Bajada was at Target last year looking at a 9-by-11-foot rug that she thought would be perfect for her kids to play on in their Floral Park living room.
But at $200 she felt it was too expensive so she walked away and forgot about it for a while. The following week, she noticed on her Facebook feed someone was giving away a shaggy white rug in the exact size that she had been eyeing.
So Bajada hopped into her SUV, drove to the owner's house five minutes away and came home with a new rug.
