We just read that the best time of the year to buy furniture is coming up...
Best Time of the Year to Buy Furniture?
...in July. So says the new issue of Real Simple mag.
The reason why? According to the vp of the American Home Furnishing Alliance, "Retailers need to weed out their inventories to make room for the new styles that arrive in August."
How much can you save? Discounts range from 10 to 50%.
The next best month? January, during post holiday clearance sales.

From someone with retail furniture experience, retailers need to weed out inventory year round... Not just in July... Although the "new stuff" usually does hit stores in August and February...

So true...I went to Crate and Barrel today and saw the Petrie sofa HALF OFF!! I think I had an orgasm... only to have the salesperson staple a SOLD sign to it. Point is, move quickly, they also deeply discount floor samples so look out for those too
