I’m still in the learning stage when it comes to bargaining, and getting deals, but recently, we got a good deal on our sofa by explaining to the in-store sales person that the price was much cheaper online–in the end, they sold it to us for over $100 less than the online price!

I’M HAUTE!!! I found a rebel camera when we were helping out a friend and he said we could just keep it. Score!

We just bought a new sectional for 85% off – it came from a company that stages houses and didn’t work for them. It’s our first-ever new piece of furniture…

I scored a WS Home leather club chair at a discount store for $200.

My deal was found at good will: Chaco sandals (which are normally close to $100 buck-a-roos) found for only $4 dollars- holla!
Christina Mills says

Best deal I ever scored is our Pottery Barn media console. Sold as a floor model, marked down to $350 from $550, which I was thrilled to pay for such a substantial piece of furniture. And I didn’t even have to put anything together!

I snagged Via Spiga shoes for $5 from Marshalls… normally $100+!

I think my best ever deal (home related of course) was my first “real” piece of furniture I purchased at the VA Chapter ASID White Elephant Auction where I bought curve front solid wood chest with rough cut granite top for $50!! It’s one of my (and the hubs too!) most favorite pieces of furniture.
I think my next most fave/best deal was buying used Calphalon cookware on craiglist. I wasn’t sold on the cost of the pans, so I thought that I could handle $50 for a second hand set. Love them and maybe someday when I “need” a new set I’ll be willing to pay for the quality. Of course will still have to be purchased on sale and with a coupon.

Actually the spouse got the best deal in my opinion. He scored a fabulous down coat on sale and discounted so many times it was only ten bucks! And it was his size! And he had just walked up to a sales rack and there it was! I hate going shopping with him…

I found four sturdy, vintage wood dining chairs that I LOVE at an antique store years back…for $75 total. The store was closed (permanently, due to recent flooding of the building), but I happened to pull up in front of the store at the same time as the owners, who were willing to let us have a look around. Also snagged a pretty bench that needed a re-glue/paint/re-upholstery for $5 bucks.
JulieA says
I’m haute! Best deal ever scored?? I am not sure. Still waiting for the right one!

The best deals I ever found happened to be years ago for our wedding. We got married in January and had a night wedding filled with candles, white lights, and all things silver. It was so rewarding to have the decorations that we really wanted at ridiculously discounted after christmas prices!! Score!

hard to say…maybe our baby crib

That’s a tough question. I can’t say that I recall the best deal I ever snagged. Obviously, it wasn’t recent! LOL

I a serious bargain shopper, so I feel like I’ve gotten tons of good deals…it makes me wince when I have to buy something full price. Anyways, I think my favorite find was an antique sewing box from Poland (with the stamp on the bottom to prove it!)…they wanted $12 and I got it for $10. Doesn’t sound that great? I saw the exact same box that afternoon at two different antique stores…one wanted $60, the other was asking $90.

One of my best deals was an antique floor lamp for $6 at a thrift store. I use it all the time. Three cheers for thrift stores!!!
Erin says

I’ve scored a few bargains for our home, including a $60 mirror marked down to $8!
Sylvia says

My best deal I ever got was picking up the most perfect leather full miniskirt for $1 at a flea market. Every time I put it on I feel and look like a million bucks!

We have an adorable kitchen table we snagged at a place called Vintiques – – it was pretty cheap and vintage. With a littel paint, it’s practically new!
Teresa says

And my best deal ever was the PB Trestle table we scored for the dining room for 90% off at the outlet mall! It was brand new, but they were discontinuing the style to slightly modify it. Awesome. :)

I;m not very good with sales I try but I need to get better.
Heather H. says
“I’m Haute”
Well not really but I try to be….. especially when I nab things like the 8 x 11 area rug in our bedroom which once retailed for $229 that we purchased for 49.99!!! :)
Ruby says
I’M HAUTE!
I never buy anything at full price and I love it. Thrift stores & TJMaxx make up 90% of my shopping trips. My favorite deal was on my leather boots (not home decor, but still fabulous) that I paid $3 for.
Stefanie says

A few years ago, I walked into a J.Crew, fully intending to walk straight back to the clearance section and still find nothing within my price range. The sales girl catches my eye and whispers, “Psst…go look at that rack over there…you’ll die of happiness”. She was right! I got a beautiful black dress, originally $175, for $4. That’s right, $4. And it was a size smaller than I normally wear but fit me perfectly, so it also made me feel skinny!
Sarah K says
I’M HAUTE! I’m so excited to see this site – looks amazing! My best deal so far was a $400 Ikea rug in as-is for $60. So perfect for my new place.

Best deal I scored was on a high top 4 seater table that was out of stock at KMart for my first NYC apt. I wanted a dark color and I only saw light on display but a clerk over heard my request and brought one up from the basement. It was only $180 and I ended up reselling it later but I have fond memories of my 1st NYC table!

I scored some great prints and frames at an auction.

I once used coupons for a few items at the grocery store and actually got money back.
Summer says
I’M HAUTE! We scored and Eames chair from my husband’s family. One night there was a casual converation being had the dinner table about his grandfather owning a furniture store in the 1960’s and they still had some things in storage… low and behold… we acquired the most beautiful leather Eames chair for free!

I recently got an antique chest of drawers from Criag’s List for $75 bucks. It is over 100 years old and a beautiful piece.
Susan Kelley says
I’M HAUTE!
Most of the best deals I’ve scored have been on clothes at the thrift store. After buying a $60 dress for New Year’s Eve, I got the same one in a different color for $6 at a thrift store, only a few weeks later.

My best deal was on an awesome mid century teak credenza. For sale on Craigslist for $50, I contacted the sellers to let them know I was interested but trying to round up a truck for hauling, as my own vehicle wouldn’t work. They offered to give it up for free so I could put the $50 toward renting a truck. Then, a friend happened to show up that weekend with his pickup. I let the couple know that I had found someone to haul so I could pay the $50, but they still insisted on giving me the credenza for free!

My best deal lately was a raffle basket I won full of pumpkins, gords, and fall squash! It is beautiful and I can’t wait to cook up all kinds of yummy fall recipes :)

There’s nothing in particular that stands out, but I’m always shopping for deals. I’ve gotten plenty of clothing at big discounts, stacked coupons, and always ALWAYS haggle for cars, furniture and antiques.
Sarah D. says
I’M HAUTE! Best deal scored would have to be free furniture given to us by family which we painted to give it a completely updated look.
Kathryn says

I’ve had good luck with Craigslist lately, but the best was finding an oak cabinet that retails for ~$150 for $10. It was a little scratched up, but once I refinish it it will look great!
Michele says
I’M HAUTE……
I am a serious bargain shopper so it is pretty hard to choose just one great deal. But, if I had to pick I would say the $2,000 leather sectional that I got for $500!
Sarah Johnson says

Best deal I’ve ever scored? Getting a pair of expensive shoes from Ross for $11 (Saved about $40!)

Mira says
I’m haute! I kinda hate to admit it… but, I think the best deal I’ve gotten was on a toilet. Ha! It was a super fancy Kohler toilet that we bought at the Re-store. 30 bucks… and they retail for 1,000!
Shannon says
I’m HAUTE! 2 vintage rattan chairs on Craigslist for $100, they are in awesome condition. I spraypainted them black and added cushions, a side table and a lamp, and now they’re a perfect vignette.
