AN interior designer has found a way a clever way of saving hundreds of dollars on furniture. <\/p>\n

She said homeowners are spending way more than they need and her trick saves even when shopping at Pottery Barn.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

This lady should know what she is talking about. She has learned a few tricks of the trade during the course of her career. <\/p>\n

She spends most of her working day trawling the internet for cheap household design deals.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow to save money on furniture," said Vancouver-based Carmen Javier (@carmenjavierco), who has 34,000 followers on her TikTok. <\/p>\n

"You [can] save literally hundreds of dollars when furniture shopping online," she wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m an interior designer, and I source and shop for clients throughout the US and Canada on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

"I comb hundreds if not thousands of items searching for the best prices."<\/p>\n

She was ready to share her trade secret and it was relatively simple.<\/p>\n

\u201c[First] you are going to find the item that you\u2019ve been eyeing."<\/p>\n

She used a coffee table from Pottery Barn as an example, that was retailing in the US for $949.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn a computer, you are going to right-click and click \u2018search image with Google,\u201d she instructed.<\/p>\n

\u201cBasically you\u2019re getting a curated list of every furniture store that also carries the same table.<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst, you want to figure out what the actual name of this item is.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost furniture stores carry wholesale brands, which means they\u2019re buying from another brand and then changing the name, changing the price."<\/p>\n

She used the example from Four Hands called the Me Surround coffee table and found the best price at Lulu and Georgia with a price ticket of $749 for this Placida Round coffee table.<\/p>\n

But don't rush to the checkout yet, she warned. See if Lulu and George offer any discount codes first.<\/p>\n

If shoppers were buying more than one item, she suggested buying them all from one store giving you the lowest shopping rate and lowest retails prices overall."<\/p>\n

It could also save you on anything between ten to 20 percent in shipping costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can combine all your purchases from one store you only have one shipping cost," said Carmen.<\/p>\n

Some commenters came up with their own tips for discount.<\/p>\n

This person's suggestion was typical of others.<\/p>\n

\u201cLeave the item in your cart and walk away. Some stores will offer you a discount for your abandoned items two to five days later.\u201d<\/p>\n

This person had already tried out Carmen's tip: \u201cI did this and saved $500 on an arched curio cabinet.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGreat tip. I\u2019d just add to be sure that you check site reviews because some vendors have terrible service if anything goes wrong or you want to return.\u201d<\/p>\n
