A new home is a fresh start for you and your family, but it can be an expensive time shopping for everything you need. The good news is that you don’t need to buy everything new to match. Dmitry Zozulya was looking for a corner sofa but found that brand new ones cost too much for what he wanted to spend. A quick browse on Kleinanzeigen later and he found exactly what he wanted – a cosy sofa at the perfect price.  ‘It was a dream advert. As soon as I saw it I quickly borrowed a car and went to pick it up. That Saturday evening my wife, daughter and I enjoyed our new purchase during our family film night’, said Dmitry. ‘I bought it from a lovely family who even offered to help me carry it out to the car. So not only did I find something cool, but I also found some cool people, too!’ #OOAK #ChangingCommerceTogether

Last week, our Kleinanzeigen colleagues channelled their inner superheroes at our epic Summer Offsite! Under the rallying cry "Be Your Own Hero," colleagues from our Berlin office took a day to unwind, get creative and bond as a team. From trapeze lessons to flower crown workshops, it was a day filled with freedom, fun and a whole lot of community spirit. Because even heroes need a break sometimes, this offsite was the perfect chance to recharge, try new things, and remember what really matters - taking time to breathe and connect! #SummerParty #ChangingCommerceTogether

A sign that an item is a true #OneOfAKind is wanting to look after it for the next generation.     When Enrique Gaya found a bedside table on Marktplaats that had been owned by the same family for years, he wanted to continue its story – he felt it was now his responsibility to show it the same love and care they had.    ‘It had been in the seller’s family for three generations! The daughter was the latest owner and she’d managed to refurbish it, but after moving to a small studio in Amsterdam she sadly no longer had space for it’, said Enrique.    It had such sentimental value to her that her one request was that I take good care of it — and I have! I love to wake up to it by my bed every day.’ #OOAK #ChangingCommerceTogether

🌟Amsterdam Do Good Day 🌟 🤝 On 27 June, our Benelux teams participated in the Do Good Day, marking the very first for all our Amsterdam and Brussels colleagues!
