The Good Buys Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Monday, July 28, 2008

We learned that, sometimes, friends cannot give us a better shopping deal.  How much they care, and try their very best so that we can have a little saving, it is impossible unless they are the 'boss'. 

We were rather fortunate as not to act on impulse to purchase some furniture last week.  We might disappoint our friend but, surely, he will understand the savings that we made - almost to a thousand dollars.

Over the weekend, we decided to go to the store second branch - thinking that we might see different things here.  Though we didn't get to see the sofa that we liked from the other branch for display here, we ended confirming our purchases, for this sofa plus few other things in this store.

To Danny - We are sorry.  Hope you understand.

The 2930mm fabric L-Shaped Sofa:

For a change, we are choosing fabric over leather.  It is on high density latex foam and the fabric is 100% polyester with dupont teflon fabric protector.  What we like about this fabric sofa is the tightly sewn velcro and it will make washing easier.  At the same time, with its high density latex foam, it will not crease easily when seated.

The two 'short' sofas can be extended forward with just a light glide.  Just like the headrest that can be straightened or bend, it is equipped using a mechanism which the store boasted made in Germany with a 10 year warranty.

We are also getting a 1200 x 600 mm ottomon:

Getting the store to fabricate with the same fabric as the sofa.

The 900 x 900 mm coffee table:

We are still considering this long standing black lamp:

Not very sure should we get this or to have a long hanging ceiling lamp.
