      I genuinely fucking hate “local” furniture stores. That industry seems slimier than car sales honestly. Sell dog shit quality products for hundreds to thousands of dollars and then are allowed to act like they are going out of business constantly. There are always furniture stores around me having “liquidation sales” and “going out of business sales” and literally none of them have ever gone out of business. If anything, they usually raise their prices before their next sale.

          There’s no way it’s not. Either that or there is some kind of tax loophole they’re able to take advantage of that lets them write all of the furniture off at a loss every year despite turning a profit.

          Same. We have an Ashley furniture and an Ashley furniture outlet that are perpetually liquidating their stock
