If you have champagne tastes when it comes to furniture, but a budget more fit for beer, then discount furniture may the answer for you. There are a number of places you can get furniture on the cheap, and the advent of online shopping means there are even more cheap furniture options though so-called “click and mortar” discount furniture outlets. And if you hear the words “discount furniture” and picture milk crate end tables, think again. With a little smart shopping, you can find low cost furniture that everyone will assume you shelled out top dollar to get. The only thing cheap about discount furniture is the price tag - you’ll never pay full price again!
Where Can I Get Discount Furniture?
There are tons of places to start to get your bargain basement price furniture hunt under way. Consider giving any one of these places a whirl:
Discount Retail Chains
The furniture in places like Target, Walmart, and Kmart has come a long way. These stores are filled with furniture options that any top dollar retailer would be proud to put on their floor, but for a fraction of the price. Check these places for everything from desks to chairs to kitchen seats. The catch is, most pieces require at least some assembly, put a little elbow grease will seem like nothing when you calculate your savings.
Also, try a dedicated furniture chains like Ikea. At Ikea, quality construction and hip styles come together under one super cheap price tag. You’ll have to the hippest house on the block, and you’ll still have money to spare.
Wholesale Furniture Stores
Wholesale furniture establishments cut out those pesky middle men, and those middle men’s price sticker raising salaries, and pass that savings right on to you. At a wholesale furniture store, you’ll be buying directly from the manufacturer, for the same cost a retail store would pay, and you’ll save at least 20% off the price you would pay if you waited for that retail store to turn around and sell to you.
Furniture Outlets
You already know all about hitting the outlets to get your clothes shopping fix, but did you know the outlets can be a great source for discount furniture shopping as well? Some furniture manufacturers and retailers alike have outlet stores among the traditional outlet shopping centers, and some towns, like High Point, NC, and Farmville, VA, have streets and streets of full of furniture outlets. Organize a shopping expedition and get yourself some great deals on discount furniture.
Online Shopping
Some furniture manufacturers, and some furniture retail stores, have turned to the internet to peddle their wares. Much like wholesale furniture stores, the internet helps cut out the middle man, and so prices are low. Don’t forget to consider shipping costs if you decide to order furniture online, though.
