Would you believe Wal-Mart.com??

   The other day I was surfing around the web in search of a small-scale coffee table for a client's formal living room and I nearly fell out of my chair when this image appeared on my screen!




Pretty spectacular, right?  Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would find something so chic and so current from the same place that I buy my dog food, paper towels and about a bizillion other mundane items, but it's true! This brings my Wal-Mart love/hate conflict to a whole new level.


So, I thought if I could find this at Wal-Mart (.com), what else is out there I have been missing?  











Do what you must - I'm not here to judge.

    OMGosh Kim this is amazing. Isn't it funny if you had not written Walmart everyone would have thought a much higher end store. I peruse their web-site from time to time and have found a few treasures myself. Love this post.Kathysue
    PS great research on your part!!

    Seeing as we don't have a walmart over here in Aus....I am thinking it must be something similar to Kmart? anyway I have to say if you didn't tell me where those were from, I would have thought they were from some new hip chic store, that still isn't in Aus.;>

    Yeah, I think they have other suppliers for their website, the stuff on the site is far superior to what's in stores! Awesome finds! XX!

    Have you seen any of these in person? Just wondering how the quality we see in the images on our screens compares to the real thing. I've been fooled by Wal-Mart before, LOL!

    Wow! I ordered an upholstered headboard to slipcover from Walmart and picked it up yesterday. I haven't unpackaged it yet. I'll blog about it when I do though to let you know what I think. I really, really like Walmart's Site to Store delivery too since it eliminates having to pay delivery fees.

    Those are great finds. I carry that first table on my retail website. I looked all over the Walmart site to see a price comparison but could not find it. Do you remember what they called it? Never know what you will find at Walmart or Kmart for that matter!!

    I know what you
    mean about love/hate.
    While I love it
    that WM makes great
    design options available
    at affordable prices,
    I hate that almost
    everything, furniture-
    wise, is made in
    China and that when
    I discover something
    made in the USA, it
    feels like I should
    be sending up fireworks
    and dancing in the
    streets, as it has
    become so rare. I
    think I'd rather hold
    out for something
    antique/old/repurposed
    that is made in the
    USA....
    But....
    I never say never!
