I have told my friend who is building a home in St. James that Jennifer at Southern Lifestyles is really great to order furniture that you may have found "back home" at the same or better price. They also deliver and set it up for you.

Is Jennifer still there, does anyone know?

I just cannot imagine why anyone would buy anywhere else. Southern Lifestyles and Showcase Direct have about anything you can dream up, their salespeople are super and prices are RIGHT!

My better half is a great shopper and takes pride in her "hobby". She furnished the areas we are not moving down from Kents and Southern Lifestyle. She told the folks at Kents she was in the market for a ,ot of stuff. When they toyalled it up she asked if they would offer a "deal" before ordering. They did just that as someone mentioned, on TOTV a while back, they would do so. Southern has many nice things but were a little pricey. We still found things we liked there. Kents delivered our things when we needed them according to when rooms were done with new carpet or tile. They made 3 trips in 10 days all free. Highly recommend them

We did the same thing when we moved. Sold all of the old stuff and bought all new. I bought everything from Southern Lifestyles. They were wonderful. We even special ordered a few things and they gave loaners to use until the special orders came in. Their delivery team was superb. They unloaded everything and set it up exactly where I wanted it. Our sales rep was Shane McCall -- he was great!!!!!

Ditto on Southern Lifestyles and especially Shane. We also found some stuff at Family Furniture in Leesburg. They were great to deal with too.
