Guest Madz25 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone knows any good and CHEAP furniture stores in the Halifax area. Big stores like Leons are so pricey. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Madz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Night Moves Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 I heard that they opened an IKEA here a while back and it somehow failed?! Two universities and they couldn't figure out how to make it work. Anyway, one place I know of that has a half-decent collection of stuff is the Sears outlet store. Everything there has basically been returned, or it's the stuff that fell off the back of the truck and has a scratch that you'd never notice. There isn't a ton of furniture, but what they have in stock always changes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Left and Leaving Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Hey there, it's true, they did have an IKEA in Dartmouth and it closed! Bummer. Anyways I'm not going to Dal next year (Mac - but forgive me for posting in your forum..I've been living here for 3 years.. ) Well, there is the Urban Cottage, which is a used place, it's downtown on Granville St (you could find the # in the phone book). From what I remember it has a big selection of stuff. Other than that I'd try sites like craigslist and thecoast.ca for classifieds. And the paper too! Good luck!

Guest Madz25 Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks for the tips! IKEA failed?! How is that even possible lol. Overjoyed - I was also thinking about having my furniture shipped from IKEA but thought it would be too expensive. I'll look into that in more detail now. Thanks!

Guest BlueSkies Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Could you let us know how much it costs to ship things to Halifax from Ikea? Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest overjoyed Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 shipping cost is based on weight. for the 5 items i ordered, which is just under 400 before tax and shipping, the shipping costs around 130. for what i'm getting it would cost more to buy it at one of the furniture places in Halifax, so it works out cheaper for me in the end. but it does also depend on what you're looking to buy. hope that helps a bit more.
