Great money saving tip

September 30th, 2008

I took a brisk trip into town this weekend just gone and quickly realised that many shops are having sales. Why are so many shops having sales in September I asked myself. I soon discovered that loads of shops have got sales on because of the credit crunch, they want to try and sell as much produce as possible at the moment to try and balance the books. Furniture stores in particular are going savings crazy! As no one is really moving house many people are subsequently not bothering to buy bedroom furniture, kitchen appliances, sofas or any of this stuff. So the shop puts on a sale! I went in to a furniture store just down my road in london and picked up a new sofa for my spare bedroom for about £200! What a bargain!

So, if you were after some good savings at the moment on house furniture then get yourself down to your MFI’s and IKEA’s!! You’ll get some great deals!

    We were at an estate sale the other day and they had a house full of contemporary furniture for cheap.

    I still think that shopping at garage sales are the best places to save money if you are buying furniture.

    Don’t be so proud that you have to have new everything. Even if you think you’re buying new on sale, you can still save more than half that at a garage sale. That extra spending will catch up to you in the long run.

    Like everyone, I would also like a product at half price in sales but this highlights are a very delicate issue. Sales either highlight that you want to clean up your old junk so you can get a new one or either you’re trying to attract customers. I don’t say all but few would be definitely suffering from this policy as well, like low-scale or medium-scale business owners, they can’t give huge discounts because they don’t have enough capital.

    I may keep on saying on it but in short, I want to say that no one saw recession coming or realized. No one really took the Demand & Supply rule into account, Shops kept increasing the supply but the demand was quickly declining. This brought troubles for everyone.
