We have done it twice and used Southern Lifestyles both times. They will deliver right away and if there is something you love that has to be ordered, they will deliver while you are gone. We also shopped with the list from property management and I did some pre-shopping online - if you know someone in TV that you can have things sent to. By shopping online I was able to take advantage of sales and got some good bargains. We did a lot of Walmart Belk and Kohls shopping!
One suggestion - Call your credit card company and let them know you are going to be in FL and furnishing a home. We didnt the first time and got into a bind a t WalMart when the $500 sale (2+ carts) would not go thru because the card was not being used in our usual pattern - away from resiidence and large purchases one after the other. We had to go to the manager and call the company. I appreciated that they thought they were protecting us and that perhaps someone had stolen our card but my husband was mortified. Every time we go to TV now, we call first.
