Question

Hiiii mommas!  This group is always so great!Hiiii mommas! This group is always so great! I’m moving out for the first time in May and of course we have nothing! Does anyone know if any thrift stores are still open or are furniture stores even open / delivering? Thanks for any information!  

Answer 1

Try Hometown Furniture in Plainfield. They're still open, delivering, and posting heavily reduced furniture deals about once a week on their Facebook page. Family run and very fair pricing.

@tailrace9407 thank you so much! I’ll check it out!  

---

@laud905 No problem! We've bought a lot of furniture from them through the years. If you find something you like at Ashley Furniture or La-Z-Boy, you can order from Hometown and they'll give you a much better price.  

---

@tailrace9407 ooo that’s even better to know! Thank you so much!  

Answer 2

I will have a box of kitchen items, miscellaneous, that you can have if interested?

Answer 3

We just moved last week and have ordered a few things from ashley furniture (very quick delivery for us). And just ordered a sectional from Hometown Furniture today! They were very easy to work with. Really good price on what we needed.  

Comments

@performance0 okay awesome! Thank you so much!  

Answer 4

Look into FB marketplace. They have some amazing items

Comments

@cairns4 great idea! I’ll definitely be on the look out!  

Answer 5

Sent you a pm

Answer 6

Honestly. Just buy blue painters tape and measure out what you want and where you want it. Then go on wayfair, Serena and Lilly, and ikea and add to your cart. Using painters tape and visualizing dimensions in real life will give you that perspective

Answer 7

I would never ever buy a couch without sitting in it for the record. I’m a lazy boy Lover. I won’t ever not buy the brand lazy boy for couches. So cozy and with a house full of men, I think I chose correct

Comments

@mauro169 painters tape is going to be a great idea! We’re both on a tight budget. I saw some on Costco but I don’t know the quality

---

@laud905 the best thing about Costco. if you don’t like it, return for a full refund! Even 2 yrs later. but I have heard their furniture is great!  

Answer 8

Furniture stores aren’t essential businesses under the governor’s order so you’re going to have to try curbside pickup or delivery. Same for thrift stores (my favorite )

Comments

@way14587 Ca my favorite to! Haven’t seen one at all open! I think market place is going to be it with curbside pick up

Answer 9

We are moving to Texas and have a basically brand new couch, we bought it in June and aren’t bringing it with if you are interested!  

Comments

@mestee could you send me a picture? I gotta check with my significant other to ensure we could get in the apartment  

---

@mestee next if they pass please  

---

@laud905 yup I can get you a picture tomorrow and measurements! It’s a L shaped sectional but it comes apart, we had it in our one bedroom apartment.  

---

@multifoliate no problem, I’ll keep you updated!  

---

@mestee the could work!  

Answer 10

Watch FB market place, I’ve bought and sold SO much. This time of year because people are usually moving it’s awesome! Buy nothing new, it’s so overpriced and if you’re moving around it’s going to get beat up anyways. Invest in a nice rug and furniture cleaner and buy second hand (and put your savings away in the bank).  

Answer 11

I have a very good Ashley sleep sofa if you are interested to check it out

Answer 12

If you aren’t picky, try dollar stores for things. We got mugs, plates, bowls, and kitchen tools there!  

Comments

@sinistrocular I’ll be going there this weekend  

Answer 13

I have a nightstand if you’d like it

Comments

@chanel that would be great!  

---

@laud905 I have it in my garage. Pm me and let me know when u can grab

Answer 14

Sent PM with some items for pickup if interested

Answer 15

Check FB marketplace. It is full of furniture at great deals

Answer 16

I'm not a thrift store, but I'm doing the opposite, we're selling our house and moving in with my brother temporarily and getting rid of a lot of stuff. I have a love seat, a couch, a chair, futon, and some other things I'm getting rid of

Comments

And MOST of my kitchen supplies!  

Answer 17

Is there anything specific you’re looking for?  

Comments

@valero0 yes! Bigger items are forsure something we don’t have tv stand, night stands, dressers, kitchen table. We really only have a bed and desk at this point

Answer 18

We’d like to replace our sliding glass door with French doors. The space for a door to open is tight, but we don’t need both doors to open. What are some options for that?
