Hello everyone,
So today I tried something new and bought my first item with Steem!
The way I did it was I actually tried out LocalBitcoins for the first time and it worked flawlessly.
I only took out a small amount to try it out first but I can confirm that it works and is a reliable way to sell bitcoins.
The item I decided to buy was a chair. My father had been complaining about his office chair for a while and that it hurt his back sitting all day. He works really hard so I decided to upgrade his current chair with a newer more ergonomic one. I went on reading reviews and checking what chairs were available in the nearby stores.
I knew he liked the "gaming" type chairs more than regular office chairs so the one I decided to get him was a "Arozzi Enzo" and he really liked it :) I was very happy to be able to buy it for him and it felt great knowing I had done it with Steem.
Here is a picture of the chair after I set it up at his workplace:
So I just wanted to share my experience with both LocalBitcoins and also purchasing something with the earned SteemDollars. I want to thank everyone for the support and I will continue to post good content in the future. I have a game-review coming out after the midsummer holidays so stay tuned for that. And for any new readers, feel free to follow!
Have a happy Midsummer/St. Johns everyone! Drink with caution.

Comfortable lookin' ass-holder! I'll trade ya!
I know you and your brother are in Europe, has Amazon latched onto there yet? If so, you can stretch your BTC SUPER far by using www.purse.io. It has been a giant life saver for me, the wife, my family, and friends.
By the looks of this post payout, looks like you're gonna be able to get a few more of those damn chairs! haha

Wow, really? Yea, Amazon actually just recently started being used up here but I've been meaning to try it. Was really dissappointed that they didn't accept bitcoins at first but this purse.io seems like the solution for that so thanks for the heads up! :) haha, yeah :D

Awesome yea. That site I know. But if any option we can withdraw by direct atm that is real helpful. It is difficult when I can sell the coin. I believe it is not instantly its depend on user to user. Thanks for the info. great chair.
