It's Madness! Madness, I tell you!

It's heeere...

This is, beyond all shadow of a doubt, the wildest and craziest sale here at La-Z-Boy this weekend. Not only will you get some fantastic savings, you'll also get the additional entertainment value of watching the sales staff acting like utter and complete goofballs in order to earn your business.

Before I start hyperventilating and thowing out every cheezy sales-guy cliche to earn a laugh, let me explain how the sale works in a calm, rational voice.

We've got everything - absolutely, positively, bar-the-door Katie everything - marked down in the store. Some of the deals are stupid-good; the Demi sofa, a cute little modern sofa I've sold a lot, is $597 - roughly $100 off its usual price.

If you buy from us this weekend in cash - "cash" meaning money, check, or credit card these days - we'll knock 5% off the marked price. That doesn't apply to everything; that Demi, for example, is as low as it can go. But just about everything else is good for that price.

If you want to finance, we can offer you one full year, equal payments, no interest.

If you recieved some advertising for this sale in the mail, please bring it in; I'd love to see it.

Come on in and see this weekend; it's going to be a riot. Were' closing early on Thursday and opening late on Friday to get ready, so plan accorindgly. Hope to see you there.

Charity Updates

Rather than just list all of the charities our store supports, I've added a collection of links to their websites on the right hand side of the blog. Please, feel free to take a look at their work and do all that you can to support them.

While we're offering a great sale in conjunction with these charities until Easter, please remember that you can donate your used furniture any time that you'd like. We're just making a point of saying "thank you" this Easter Week by giving you a generous discount for your donation. Thanks.

There are a lot of exciting things coming up later in the month here in La-Z-Boy; I can't talk about them yet, but watch this space for further details!

Trade-In Days

Hey, folks. You've probably heard the ads for our trade-in days sales this week on the radio by now. Some of our clients said they were a bit confusing. Let me explain how the sales works a bit further.

If you're replacing a piece of old furniture, donate it to one of the charities we work with. (I'll do some searching tomorrow and give you web links to those charities that have a web presence.) If you can't do that, Ronald McDonald house has a long wish list of goods; ask us for that list, and give what you can.

In exchange for your generosity, we'll take:

$50 off a fabric recliner
$75 off a leather recliner
$100 off a sofa
$200 off a sectional

We're also taking 20% off of select accessories when you by some upholstery. Ask me about a given piece, and we'll see if it applies. (Just about all of the accessories in this store are going to qualify, but you never know.)

I love having sales like this that provide some benefit for people outside of our store. I like getting people into good furniture, but it's even better when someone who needs help gets it as a side benefit of what I do - especially in this economy.
