Time for School

I can't believe the summer is almost over! It seems like it barely started, yet when I'm driving down Central Illinois roads and I see all the beautiful ripening crops, I know that fall is coming. The corn is probably 6-8 feet tall and the soybeans are lush and full. Another dead give-a-way is when I come to UFS and see all the "Back to School" supplies on the shelves- everything from paper, pencils, lunch boxes, back packs, etc. It's hard to believe just how many little things kids need for school- they can really pile up.Poor kids! They're really going to miss swimming, fishing, hiking, playing video games, sleeping in, no homework, and summer ice cream and Popsicles. :) But, oh well... let's bring on the FOOTBALL!

The Splendor of Our New Vendors

So you know how UFS is always looking for new sources for DEALS...Well, the furniture store has found three new vendors of furniture. The first is ROWE FURNITURE which is made in North Carolina and is exquisitely tailored. The ROWE furniture that UFS carries can be ordered in many fabric options. Now you can customize your furniture so that it's just right for your taste.

Another source for furniture is a company out of New Albany, Mississippi called Starmont. They specialize in producing quality products at an affordable cost. We have two cushioned sofas in a patterned microfiber in three colors at an affordable $299.00.

Finally, UFS has added another really affordable vendor called Higdon Furniture. We currently have several bedrooms here at UFS.

UFS prides itself on continual improvement. Come down and see our new furniture!

Are We There Yet???

We're going on vacation! Once a year, we let all the stress and drudgery of day-to-day life behind and escape to somewhere special-- somewhere therapeutic, restful, and calm. I'm SO ready to go, but unfortunately I'm in a big sweat (not because of the heat though). I've left lots of travel details until the last minute.Good thing UFS has suitcases of various sizes, plus totes, backpacks, and purses. I really like the American Jourester for $49.99.

I also purchased a new cosmetic bag, beach towel, small size toiletries and PLENTY of MUNCHIES for the road.

Ahhhh.... Affordable Air Conditioning.

Boy, it's HOT!!!

To be cool as a cucumber, you need to come to the appliance department and check out our window air-conditioners. My sister just bought one for her bedroom. Her bedroom is on the second floor and the central air conditioner doesn't have enough force to cool her room. She purchased the 8,000 BTU for $169.00!We also carry the 10,000 BTU for $239. After her purchase, she only leaves her room for meals. I really miss her.
