by Once again, we celebrate not only the start to the summer season but also one of the biggest furniture sale holidays of the year this weekend. For those not at the beach, a picnic or a camping trip, this is the perfect time to shop for furniture. We mean that. And it’s not just a hunch. As usual around this time of year, we have scoured the web and found a host of aggressive promotions offered by furniture retailers around the country. From major discounts on multiple categories, to low or no-cost financing, it’s a great time to be a consumer in the market for furniture.
Below are some of the retailer websites that caught our eye and what types of deals they are offering. As always, we hope the holiday weekend provides a much-needed boost to the industry at a time when consumers’ attention has been diverted to other purchases, from travel and autos to dining out and other forms of entertainment. And if we missed your sales promotion, contact us at tom@homenewsnow.com and we can add (no pun intended) it to the mix.
