Since getting the RV I've been looking for an awning but when you are on a budget that just doesn't work at all. Everything I could find averaged around $500. Well this week a family moved out of the RV park and were selling the RV dirt cheap or scrapping it. Well we asked about buying the awning and they never got back to us. Then today they stopped by the RV and said we could buy it.
My husband went and talked and they only asked for $30 for the awning with no leaks! The problem is we only have $20 till Friday and they said that that was fine. So we got the awning for a grand total of $20. It isn't the model that fits our RV and not long enough for the brackets already on our RV but my husband says he won't have a problem attaching it as long as he can get some help putting it up.
This is great because in storage we have a deep freezer and there are other people in the RV park that have them under their awnings and say they work great as long as you keep the rain off and them up off the ground. My husband is going to build a platform with pallets to raise it up and then he will put a lock on it to secure it from thief. This will go a long way in saving money since we can buy more when things go one sale and my husband can kill a deer and really save us some money on meat.
