Moving Day is Right Around the Corner: Cheap Good Quality Furniture Costco Flat Rate Movers and More!
Jul 16, 2009 Author: Katie Lara | Filed under: Thoughts of the Moment
Moving day is right around the corner. BF has officially “asked permission” from my parents to move in with me. Gotta love the old fashioned folks! Anywho, here are my moving tips thus far…
Sleepy’s: Negotiate the crap outta the original price they give you. They’re all full of it! Go to Macy’s and Bloomies too to get a better idea of what you want. We got our bed down from 2900 to 1400, no joke! Personally I think Sleepy’s is still the way to go despite their shady practices of price puffery. Supposedly if you call 2 nights before they deliver and pretend to cancel they’ll knock the price down even lower…we’ll see about that…
Costco: I think we’re ordering our TV from here, or should I say my parents are (love you Mommy and Daddy!! Quite the move-in present!). They double the warranty of the manufacturer, which these days is definitely worth it.
Furniture: We checked out a bazillion stores and so far The Door Store seems to be in the lead for quality and price. We hit Straight from the Crate, which other people had recommended and found it to be super crappy and its prices were about $150 higher than Door’s (about $400 for a dresser and $500 for a coffee table). We’re looking to get nice, quality stuff, not garbage we’ll toss when we move again.
Movers: We’ve chose Flat Rate…will keep you posted…
Forgive me, darlings if I don’t write much, I will obvs be very busy with the packing and move!
