How to find furniture without breaking the bank

Finding the right kind of furniture for your new house or apartment after a move can be great fun; however, it can also quickly turn into an expensive headache.  The good news is that with a bit of creativity, patience and time you can fill your new abode with superb items of furniture without breaking the bank.

Whether you are making a move into your very first apartment or relocating somewhere larger, there are a number of ways in which you can find furniture that is friendly to your budget.  One good tip is to think about your timing and prepare to hit the sales.  New products are generally released by furniture companies in February and August, which means that January and July are excellent times to purchase as stores start clearing out their old inventory.  You might also want to try to buy new items of furniture on holidays when retailers have big sales, such as Black Friday, Independence Day, Labor Day and Memorial Day.

Finding deals online is also a great idea.  Online shopping gives you access to whole furniture stores that you can efficiently sort and search through, and many online retailers have bigger sales and better prices.

Searching online for new furniture following your impending move can also be achieved away from the major retailers on sites such as craigslist.  There are many good deals on such sites; in some instances, you may even be able to score items for free.
