1. I love the bright colors of your upholstered furniture. I work with your furniture a lot. It would be nice to see decorative nail trim on some of them. Your prices are very reasonable. I hope your business continues to do well and have a grest day.

3. Lots of us would love to see you open a store in the NH Seacoast area. There is a vacant store in Dover NH on Central Avenue that was once occupied by Ames Dept Store. Do you have any plans to open a store here to the up and coming NH Seacoast area? It is growing fast….Love Home Goods, but the nearest store is 1 hour away in Gilford, NH.

6. I just read about ‘Hang ‘em high’. I would have never thought about hanging my curtains up that high, what a difference that makes. I can’t wait to redo my rods and curtains. I love reading the tips and tricks of the trade and I love shopping at Homegoods. They offer such beautiful stuff for the home at bargain prices. I have purchased stuff for just about every room in my house.
Please keep the ideas coming…..

7. We here on the Eastern Shore of Maryland would LOVE to see a Home Goods open in our area. There is a new shopping complex open in Easton, MD, that would be central to the area.

Sincerely,
Terri

11. I live in Metairie, Louisiana and became curious about Home Goods due to your advertising despite not having a store within 100 miles. Our area also has numerous areas you may be interested in investigating. Then we might be able to shop at a Home Goods Store.

15. I’m a Decorator and Home Stager . I have referred 100 of customers to you and I shop for probs at your store all the time – I’m totally hooked on you.
I have just finished a decorating job in NJ exept for DR chairs. Yesterday I went all over NJ to find chairs. My problem – only 2 chairs in every store and I need 4 any suggestions – my customer fell in love with the zebra covered chair # # 110713, Type 1, Catgory 8830, Size C0409. We found2 at your Woodbridge Store in NJ. Thanks

16. Thanks for submitting a comment to Openhouse, the HomeGoods blog.

We understand that you have been trying to locate chairs. As an off price retailer, we make every effort to keep our prices low, and our costs down, so that we can pass these savings on to our customers. For this reason, we do not provide a service of tracking merchandise, In addition, we do not have the privilege of ordering specific merchandise from our vendors. To locate the chairs, we suggest that you continue to check with the stores in your area directly. We would be happy to provide you with store locations in your area. If you would like a store list, please call our Customer Service Department directly at 1-800-888-0776.

Thank you,

17. I became interested in your store after seeing ads on tv. I got on your website and found out that the closest ones to me are in the San Antonio, TX area. Are there any plans to put one in the Austin, TX area in the near future?

by Kathy — 5/27/09 at 9:36 am #

18. Hi Kathy,

Thanks for your inquiry.

At this time HomeGoods does not have any plans to open a new store in the Austin, TX area. We have forwarded your request to our Real Estate Department for their review.

19. Out of the major cities in Texas : Houston, Dallas/ Ft Worth , San Antonio , and last and BEST is Austin which has the BEST economy by far. Check it out – Austin is on every TOP 10 list out there. I have been to every Homegoods in all the other cities and I know you are missing out by not planning one for Austin. The problem with buying in another city is your return policy which does not allow Homegoods items to be returned to a local Marshalls & T J Maxx. I am a Realtor / Decorator and it would be one-stop shopping for all my clients decorating needs. The Marshalls / T J Maxx stores here are very popular, but there is nothing to compare with Homegoods. Please consider Austin in the near future.
North Austin is “boom” town.
