It’s Okay to Sleep On It
The staff at R & R Furniture and Mattress will never pressure you into purchasing something, but that’s not always the case at other furniture stores. Purchasing furniture is a big decision that shouldn’t be made on a whim, so don’t let a pushy salesperson pressure you into buying something on the spot. It’s okay to sleep on the decision and tell them that you’ll come back at a later time.
If you come to R & R Furniture and Mattress, you can speak with our helpful staff and take all the time you need to make a decision without the high-pressure sales tactics you’ll find in other stores.
Major Holidays Are a Great Time to Save
If your purchase can wait a couple of weeks or months (depending on the time of year), you may be able to cut the cost by a few hundred dollars. Major holidays such as Independence Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, New Year’s, and other major occasions are generally some of the best times to shop around. Be sure to follow R & R Furniture and Mattress on Facebook so that you don’t miss out on our biggest sales of the year!
Paying for Delivery Is Worth It
One of the hardest things about buying furniture is getting it from the furniture store to your home. This is particularly true if you have to haul something large through a doorway, up or down stairs, or around tight corners. Paying for delivery is a truly minimal cost in the long run, and it ensures that you, your furniture, and your home aren’t damaged as the new item is brought inside.
Keep the Instruction Manual Around
If you’re like many people, then you probably either throw instruction manuals away or have them sitting at the bottom of a junk drawer. The latter is always preferable to the former, and we highly recommend reading through the care instructions at least once so that you know how to properly care for your new furniture. If something is spilled on it or you just need to know how to clean it without damaging it, you’ll be glad that you know exactly what to do!
Furniture Is an Investment
At the end of the day, furniture is an investment in your quality of life. New pieces will last for years to come, so always keep the big picture in mind and consider how long you’ll have a piece around. If you pay $1,500 for a couch that lasts 15 years, for instance, the overall cost of the enjoyment is really only $100 per year.
No matter what you’re looking for, R & R Furniture and Mattress can help you find it.
