I max $ 100 to work with .. eBay is out of question: (.... is there hope of finding one in my price range?

Here we have a store called Big Lots, they have a very cheap furniture. Also the newspaper classified and garage sales.

nothing is cheap sorry

Hit every second-hand shop, you can find. The Humane Society has one. Remember Hi Army and St. Vincent de Paul. The ads are responsible for bargains because many items are never sold the owners are often willing to part with it for nothing. If you find something, but it too, give them a number they can call you if it does not sell. Make sure they know what your offer is. Do not be too proud to drive through the neighborhoods of the week before bulk trash pick up. You'd be surprised!
Also, have you been to IKEA?

Try to go to garage sales. Try to go to more areas of the upper class. Believe it or not, they still have garage sales and they have a very nice, sometimes new things for cheap!
