How Can They Do It?
Why Is It?
I
Many times people have asked us "Why is it
we can buy furniture so much less in this store than
what we can elsewhere?" Here are only a few of
the reasons:
Our store pays only about half the rents paid
elsewhere. Believes in quick sales and small profits.
Advertises mostly through the merchandise it sells.
Has no commission men, either on the outside or in
the store. Has no collectors, and we are satisfied
with the accounts. Has no department heads at
large salaries. Uses every inch of its floors to dis-
play merchandise. Buys merchandise only when
needed, saving storage bills. Has no surplus delivery
trucks eating up insurance, garage bills.
