Ambiente Furniture Sale

I was watching the new season of Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice last night. I don’t know if this has ever happened to you? (…’cause it happened to me)…but it’s a strange feeling when you see someone on TV that you’ve met… especially when at the time you met, didn’t know that person is a celebrity.

Raleigh Cupcake Shoppe's Lemon Zinger Cupcake

So Eric tried the Lemon Zinger Cupcake from the The Cupcake Shoppe…finally!!! eric_lemon_cupcake_shoppe_cupcake

I talked about The Cupcake Shoppe in an article I wrote a few days ago.  In case you missed it, it’s here… Raleigh’s Cupcake Shop

We’ve had Russell Stover’s chocolate (a gift), oatmeal raisin cookies, and chocolate covered pretzels lying around that he had to help finish first! But anyway, the cupcakes from the Cupcake Shoppe are like most cupcakes where they only have a certain shelf life, ya know!

Raleigh's Furniture Deals

Furniture Land South Entrance

Furniture Land South Entrance

Well no furniture deal in High Point. We just got back from our Valentine’s Day weekend. In fact, the only deal you’ll find in High Point is an overpriced one. FurnitureLand South is our country’s largest furniture store with over 1 million square feet of space. Here’s a photo of a $55,000 table that sold at FLS.  54000_sold_table_furniture_land_south1Isn’t that crazy? But I guess if you have enough money just sitting around like that, then that’s okay. I’m being sarcastic of course. Even the Clearance Center attached to the Mart and Showroom was overpriced. I think they live in a bubble out there…don’t they know about our current state of economy? I mean a few years ago, you could  buy for $5,000 at Furniture Land South – a Lane living room set with tables, a beautiful King all leather sleigh bed AND top of the line Sealy/Simmons mattress. This time around, I’d be lucky to find a headboard!
