Free Sofa - The Nine Days
Question
I have the opportunity to take a sofa from Agorah for free now during the Nine Days — is it permitted to take it, and would it be better to wait and not use it until after Tisha B'Av?
Answer
Shalom,
It is permitted to take it, since it would otherwise be a lost opportunity (Davar He'aved).
It’s better not to use it until after Tisha B’Av.
