What ever happened to formica/laminate dining room tables?
I want only one table for dining in my home. I really miss the formal formica dining room tables of the 70's. You didn't need a pad. You didn't need to hide the table with a tablecloth. You could throw your keys and your groceries on it. You could work at it and you could dine at it. Does anyone make such a thing anymore?

Check out Goodwill stores and keep an eye on Craigslist.
I picked one up (for my front porch) at a Goodwill for $5. All it needed was sanding/spray-painting the legs to look (almost) brand new. Sat out in the rain, snow, and heat for 5 years ... this spring I replaced it with another one almost just like it ($10 this time, STILL a great deal!).
I don't honestly know if anyone still makes tables like that, but there are plenty of them out there to buy secondhand. I've even seen them on Craigslist for free.
