If you want new furniture

If you are in the market for new furniture, you should really consider buying from North Carolina. North Carolina furniture is big business. High Point, North Carolina hosts an annual national furniture show, and Hickory, NC also thrives on the furniture business.

Consider purchasing display models. Often, display pieces are in good condition and are offered for much cheaper prices than the non-display inventory. A friend of ours who was second-in-command (I can't remember his actual title) for a large furniture retailer furnished his home with display models. Everything is lovely and of very high quality.

Which are some of your favorite furniture retailers?
