Party Fun

1. Hi Betty,

I know what you mean when you say you get excited when you enter Home Goods. I am so addicted to that place, I think I may need therapy. I am a stay-at-home mom who plans to pursue interior design in the fall. And I know where I will do my shopping once I get in the field. I practically decorated my home with shopping trips to Home Goods. I refuse to shop anywhere else for accessories, towels, bedding and wall decor. I have gotten several friends addicted also.

2. Betty, Wheres the party? Looks like fun. The cotton candy maker is so cool. Also the ice chest. Looks like a nice piece of furniture. Really great stuff. Thanks for showing us.

3. Ok, I have to admit it; it is love, hate relationship when it comes to me and HomeGoods. Yes, I admitted it! I’d love to go to homegoods everyday if I could, the only problem is, I would ALWAYS come out with something. One day I said to myself, “self, you are just going to look and not touch, but more importantly, you WILL NOT BUY”. Long story short, I bought something, more like two to three things that day. So, the purpose of my admission is, although I have not physically walked into the store, your photos make me want to go and purchase the popcorn machine, and cotton candy maker. It also makes me wonder, what else am I missing this day or week? I tell you, I can’t wait to get my business up and running. Not only will it be rewarding, it will be therapeutic!

I appreciate your photos!

4. Home Goods!!!!! I just have to tell you that there is not a greater place to shope than Home Goods. I began a year and a half ago renovating a house and in that year and a half I shopped Home Goods CONSTANTLY!!! To the point that the employees in MY store knew me and went out of their way to assist me and to show me new and interesting items that they thought I might like. I have purchased everything from dishes, towels, bed ensembles, knick knacks, yard items, holiday items, art for my walls, books, kitchen ware and even broke down and bought a sewing machine I found in the store. I have purchased great outdoor dishes for summer cook-outs and graduation gifts for the graduates in my life. I just can not tell you how great it is to have a store that carries WONDERFUL unique items that are affordable. I have gotten so many people in the store it is ridiculous. So thank you Homw Goods. You assisted me inturning a house into a home.

5. Hi All,

It is obvious that we all LOVE HomeGoods! It is the most exciting place that one can shop. I get excited over the quality of the merchandise and then to know that the cost is so reasonable. For many of us, shopping at HomeGoods is therapy (smile).

I like many of you have brought so much from HomeGoods that it seems as though I can’t buy anything else. Then I go into HG again, and I see something else and I get ecstatic over a new find. The one thing that you know is that you can’t go wrong with your purchase.

Keep shopping at HomeGoods and keep inviting your friends to shop there also. They’ll love you for it. Thanks for sharing!

6. Hi Jules,

I’m glad that you get excited when you enter the door of HomeGoods. Now, (smile) I don’t feel so badly when I say to people, “I feel so much better when I get into HomeGoods because everything is so beautiful and inviting.

Good luck on your career in decorating. Again, you can’t go wrong by making your choices of purchasing a lot of your specialty items and conversation pieces that bring attention, from our favorite store. The best thing that you can say and do is that “you won’t shop anywhere else…” for accessories and other specialty items. Every merchant wants to know that you love their products and have encouraged other people to shop with as much enthusiasm.

Keep in touch and keep on shopping and having fun!!!

7. Hi Cathy,

Thanks for joining the party! HomeGoods makes it possible for us to have great and exciting parties without extensive planning. They have planned for us.

8. Hi Chris,

I know how you feel! Even though you told “self” that you weren’t going to shop, you saw a few things that you had to buy. I am so pleased that the photos shared showed you some of the wonderful things that are new and available at HomeGoods that you hadn’t seen before. Just know that every week, HG gets different shipments of beautiful merchandise for fans like us to purchase.

Thanks for sharing! Let us know what you purchased as a result of your most recent visit.

9. Hi Kathryn,

It is obvious that you are one of HomeGoods best customers! When you get to the stage that the clerks are going out their way to show and tell you what is new and exciting, you are indeed considered a valueable customer to the people at that store.

It is wonderful that you appreciate HomeGoods and value the purchases that you have been able to make. I know exactly what you mean. Whenever I am buying a gift, I think first of what there might be in HomeGoods and start my shopping there. Most of my gifts, lately, have come from HomeGoods. I always know that whom ever I give the gifts to, they will love the quality, beauty and uniqueness.

Thanks for sharing and keep in touch and let us know what great buys you make.

12. Homegoods is the best store ever! I go there every week sometimes more. I do know 4 of the people now that work there also. I go to the Crofton, MD store, that seems to be the best one closest to me in my area. I would love to help people decorate or have some sort of job staging homes. I always get the best compliments on my home decorating! I can go through every room of my house and can say…yep…Homegoods! I think most of my house is ocean/beach themed…adds a calmness. I am always amazed at the cool unique stuff at Homegoods and always tell people about it that I don’t even know. I went in Pier 1 once and was so turned off at their prices. I saw a young couple in there thinking about purchasing a little tiny vase for $45 dollars, I told them Homegood has one that looks better and way bigger for only $8. I told an older woman in Kohl’s about Homegoods and she said she was going to make it a field trip to go there with her whole woman’s group. If you haven’t been there you are missing out! Thanks for the great prices and original items! ~Kathy Laurel, MD

13. Hi Kathy,

It is obvious that you too are a lover of the wonder of HomeGoods! You are so right, there is no comparison between some of the other stores that have comparable merchandise. The quality and the price do not compare with what you are able to get at HomeGoods. What is especially great is that you can always be certain that much of what you get at our favorite store will be so unique and will add to your home decoration a conversation piece gracing the inside and/or outside of your home.

If you are interested in staging homes for sale, contact real estate companies and share a portfolio with them and let them see what you are able to do. I am sure that you will gain the success that you are seeking. Let us know how you make out. Good luck!!

14. Hi Alli,

Your dessert looks wonderful. Were you able to locate the little candle holders I wanted?

by LoLo — 7/17/07 at 1:32 pm #

15. Hi LoLo,

I think that you are referring to Alli’s desert and the question that you asked her about the candle holders. I will refer your comments to her.

Have a great day and continue to keep in touch with us. We look forward to hearing from you.

16. Since I have a very small kitchen and hardly not enough counter space, I am interested in buying an electric rotissie, (small). I have seen a vertical one on the net but either its sold out or not available. Is there anything that you can do to help me?

by Joy […] — 8/11/07 at 1:09 pm #

17. Hi Joy,

Thank you for your communication! You might be able to get this vertical rotisserie from Bed Bath and Beyond, or a specialized kitchen store, or one of the major department stores that have a variety of kitchen products. Also, keep checking with HomeGoods. They get a large shipment of different products and specialized items weekly. The kitchen products are awesome! But, they can not tell you in advance what to anticipate in a shipment, because they do not provide a service of tracking merchandise. In addition they do not have the priviledge of ordering specific merchandise from vendors.

Try all of the stores in your area. I hope that you can find this vertical rotisserie. I know that it would be a great addition to your kitchen! Let us know how you make out. If we come up with additional information, I will let you know. Good luck!
