Whether you’re shopping to fill a new space or replacing older furniture, a bit of preparation can ensure you leave with exactly what you want (and maybe a little extra!). Here are some pro tips to help you get ready for a successful Black Friday shopping experience at Smitty’s:

1. List Your Priorities

Before you head to Smitty’s, take some time to make a list of the furniture items and rooms you want to focus on first. Black Friday deals can be exciting, and having a plan will help you stay organized and avoid feeling overwhelmed. Think through each room in your home and consider what could use an upgrade, replacement, or fresh look.

Are you prioritizing a new sectional for the living room? Perhaps a solid wood dining set is on your wish list. With our Buy One, Get One 50% Off promotion, you can plan out your purchases strategically to get the best value for each room. For example:

  • Living Room: Choose a sectional as your main purchase, then add an accent chair at 50% off.

  • Dining Room: Pair a new dining table with a bench or dining chairs, taking advantage of the BOGO offer.

By listing and ranking these priorities, you’ll have a clear path forward and be ready to make the most of this sale.

2. Bring Measurements

One of the most common challenges in furniture shopping is ensuring that everything will fit well in your home. To avoid guesswork, bring along detailed measurements of the rooms you’re upgrading. This way, you can confidently select pieces that will work with your space without the worry of a misfit.

Consider bringing measurements for:

  • Overall room dimensions: Length, width, and ceiling height.

  • Entryways and doorways: Ensuring the furniture can be maneuvered into the room is crucial.

  • Specific wall spaces: If you plan to place a sofa along a wall or a dining table in a nook, note those measurements.

  • Existing furniture: If you’re adding new items to a room with existing furniture, bring those measurements to visualize how everything will fit together.

Being prepared with these numbers can streamline your decision-making process on the showroom floor and give you peace of mind that your new pieces will work beautifully in your home.

3. Explore Customization Options

At Smitty’s, one of the standout features is our range of Canadian-made brands that offer customization. Many of our brands, including Decor-Rest, Bermex, and Durham Furniture, provide options for tailoring finishes, fabrics, and details to make each piece uniquely yours.

When exploring customization, here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Fabric Choices: Consider the durability and style of the fabric, especially if you have children or pets. Our selection includes a variety of stain-resistant and pet-friendly options.

  • Wood Finishes: Select from a range of wood finishes that can complement your home’s existing decor, whether you prefer light, airy tones or rich, dark woods.

  • Cushion Firmness and Fill: Some brands, like Brentwood Classics, offer options for cushion firmness, so you can choose seating that’s tailored to your comfort preferences.

  • Metal Accents and Hardware: Look at the small details, like drawer pulls or metal frame finishes, which can make a big difference in the final look of your furniture.

These customization options give you the freedom to design furniture that’s not only high quality but also reflective of your style. By discussing these options with our team during the sale, you can find the perfect fit for your home that you’ll be happy with for years.
