      Spot your furniture with online services like Overstock.com. Visit the website often to keep up with the ever-changing selection of furniture. Watch for clearance deals or shipping specials on expensive designer furniture.

      Watch your local Craigslist or eBay furniture postings. Consider purchasing used designer furniture but ask to see the furniture before purchasing it. Beware of shipping costs and in-home delivery fees when purchasing furniture online.

      Travel to furniture hubs like High Point, North Carolina. Browse through design shops and manufacturer's showrooms that are open to the public. This allows you to see high-end, designer furniture at discount prices normally only available to interior designers and others in the trade.

      Study and earn an interior decorator's license. Attend "trade only" furniture showrooms and order furniture directly from wholesalers and design showrooms thanks to your license.
