Shopping for Furniture Online
More and more people are making major purchases online. While this can be a good solution if you have a hectic schedule, you may have to wait months for delivery.
Recently, I was perusing an old copy of 'Real Simple' magazine, in which they recommend some sites for online furniture shopping. Among the recommended sites were www.crateandbarrel.com, www.potterbarn.com, www.smithandnoble.com and www.restorationhardware.com.
The delivery times reported in the article ranged from 3 days to 3 weeks. Some sites even offer additional services, such as free fabric swatches to help you in your decorating decisions.
