It's All About the Hunt

Who doesn’t like an Easter egg hunt?! Maybe that is why we get so many people telling us that they love shopping at The Stock Exchange - because “It’s all about the hunt”! 

How many of you have thought you lost out on something only to find that it was just on a different shelf or in a different room?

If you drive down the street and that great chair you saw in the window when you drove by that morning is gone - don’t keep driving - find a parking spot and come look for it! It may have sold, but it also may have just moved. 

Or, if you walked out and forgot to grab that pillow you saw downstairs and came back for it that afternoon only to see that it was gone - make sure you ask us if we still have it because we could have just moved it. 

Be careful though because more often than not it will be gone. I can’t tell you how many times a week we hear “I knew I should have bought it when I saw it”. It’s fun to play the game and wait to see if it lasts long enough for a markdown - but make sure it’s something that you know that you can live without.  Our merchandise tends to fly out the door - sometimes even the same day that it comes in. Furniture has been know to sell right off the sidewalk before it makes it through the front door!

So as much as we like the hunt - always remember the old saying “a bird in the hand”. 

"A bird in the hand," is yours, and it's not going anywhere unless you let it go. But if you leave it and go for "two in the bush," there is no guarantee you'll catch them, you might end up with nothing in the end!

... We hope you enjoy the hunt as much as we enjoy moving things around for you!

Look What I Found

I don’t know about you, but my entire house is furnished with Stock Exchange unique finds. Everywhere I turn it’s “I bought that at The Stock Exchange”, “...and that”, “oh, and that too”.  My kitchen is full of someone else’s passed along treasures. My living room is decorated with rugs, lamps, side tables, coffee tables ... for crying out loud - I even sleep in some else’s bed! (oh, that didn’t come out right).

If you compliment my outfit on any given day I can guarantee you that I purchased not just one item, but sometimes my entire outfit here from The Stock Exchange.  As the youngest of four girls I was always complaining that I was never able to buy anything new - EVERYTHING in my closet was a hand me down from my sisters. I hated that word! Who would have thought that as an adult I would be so thrilled that my entire closet is second hand-me-downs from someone else’s closet!

We hear this all the time from our customers and now we would like you to share your stories. Did you wear a dress to a wedding that everyone wanted to know where you got it? Was your husband SHOCKED that the kitchen table you brought home was only $150 dollars? Did you furnish your child’s first apartment from here? 

Do you recognize this blouse? I wore it to a Christmas party (everyone loved it!) and then I used it for the Christmas mannequin for our window this year. 

I wonder who wore it first?

Share the love - we want to hear your stories and see your pictures.
