Helpful Hints that I found about How to shop at Pottery Barn on a Dime

Step 1.

Pottery Barn sales and clearance events for a good selection of Pottery Barn furniture directly from the store. Ask sales associates what time of year they have the most mark-downs, and go to the store often during that time to find bargains.

Step 2

Ask store employees about returned items, dinged or marked Pottery Barn furniture items. Look for deals on items that have minor flaws and won't sell for full price.

Step 3

Find out if there is a Pottery Barn Furniture Outlet near you or close enough where it would be valuable to make a trip. Go online to the Pottery Barn website and click on the "Outlet" section for more information about the Pottery Barn outlet stores.

Step 4

Scour Craigslist and local classified ads for second-hand Pottery Barn furniture, which is well-made and thus holds up very well through use. You may be able to find items in great condition for a fraction of their original cost.

Step 5

Look for Pottery Barn furniture through eBay, searching under your ZIP code for local deals. Generally, sellers won't ship large items and it would be too costly if they did, so look for items you can pick up locally.

Step 6

Shop discount stores for Pottery Barn furniture overstock items. Gabriel Brothers frequently has Pottery Barn items that didn't sell in the Pottery Barn stores at a fraction of the normal cost.

Meeting with a Pottery Barn Designer

Yeah I'm so excited it's the weekend. A little rainy but there are no better days than rainy day (p.s. everyone may want to stay in, so it's a great time to visit a fav store) to go shopping. Tomorrow I have a meeting planned with a Pottery Barn designer to talk about re-decorating my living room. I'm really excited about it, this is normally somethiing that would have to pay for and I'm getting it for FREE! Score for me...thankfully I already have an inspiration book made with all the things I love, and now the only thing I have to do is take pictures of my living room. I don't have any intention on paying full price for PB stuff (it's great, but pricey) however I will take some free consultation advice and shop on a dime for any great savings I see they have.

Happy Shopping!

Making me into a Dime-Designer--New pillow covers from Pottery Barn!

So I've decided to redo my living room....on a dime of course. So, today I stopped in Pottery barn and immediately asked about their discounted prices or sale items. I found two great throw pillow covers for my living room for $12! Original price $25, score for me if I might say. I quickly brought them home and fitted them to my new pillows...perfection they look amazing. I will post a picture later, def a steal!
