Bargains & Treasures
Sailor and I are going furniture shopping (lamps and other little items), this week. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions.......Bargains & Treasures is the only resale shop on my list so far......and if time permits, (we are renting a car), we may go to the Markets of Marion... on Friday....
According to my numbers, I am a new user with less than 10 posts........that is the reason I posted here....... Thanks all, see you at Crispers Friday at 3:00p.m. Shirleevee :) |

Re: Bargains & Treasures
Hi, we were able to get things we needed from Habitat for Humanity and from Craigs list.
On Craigs list we checked in both Ocala and Orlando. Have fun. HB |

Neerly New Furniture on 441 has some really nice items. We bought a beautiful wood desk and the price was very reasonable.

When I told him it was wayyy more than I'd paid a year ago, he said I could price it cheaper, but he didn't recommend that. Uh, okay. What do you do? I told my husband their prices have skyrocketed. He said 'tis the season because of the part-timers. I just wanted to ditto what you said about the prices. |

Good for them. But just remember what made you successful, please. |
Also try Centsible Furnishings and Almost Perfect on 441 heading north. Very good prices.

B and T prices
I am a frequent shopper at B&Treasures, and the manager defintely raises and lowers prices according to the season. While the seasonal folks are here, prices are much higher. Wait until April or May, and prices will drop again.

I have always been a fan of B&T, but have noticed they don't seem to have the variety of things they once had.
I find myself going to Almost Perfect Furniture (consignment) because of their vast selections and they are reasonably priced. I have found some wonderful things. It is located on 441 two miles west of 42 on the left sitting back from the road, but you can see it. I have not been to their store in Wildwood but have heard great things about it also. |

Perhaps but I was talking about 6-7 years ago and the numbers moving in then were probably the same as now. However, perhaps you are right - B&T then was one of the very few consignments then - since then, there are many. PS. I also took Economics 101! |

Mike and I were in there yesterday to see if the stuff we sent for sale had indeed been sold. Looks like it has. While walking around I noticed quite a few very new looking sofas and loveseats. Quite a bit different from the last time I was in. Saw many dining sets, all nice, a few things I'd consider out of style now, but walking around wasn't easy. Lots of stuff and lots of people. Not sure if prices were higher, but the items I saw seemed to me to be quite reasonable. Maybe that's because I'm not a consignment sale shopper. In CA, the consignment shops near us were very expensive!

I'm looking for some light colored rattan patio furniture. All the new stuff seems to be dark this year. |
I like Neerly New in Fruitland Park on 441. Take 466A east to 441 turn right and it should be about 1 mile. Quality items.
Good Luck |

I agree Bargains and Treasures seems less worthwhile than it used to be.

Carguys, you will have fun furnishing your new home! You must be getting excited -- do you only have three months until you are a Frog?

I guess the tool box weighed more than they guessed? :ohdear: Yes less than three months left before we leave NY. Time must be getting close as I am getting the " Your almost home Herv!" Nice reminders from Gracie Angie and VCDD Bill statements. |

Prices should go down soon, there is so much stuff there but they need to make room for someone who is bringing 1200 pounds too much. LOL
