Overstock.com Hero Chair Benefits Wounded Warriors Project

Color me impressed. It's hard enough to find a good-looking accent chair for under $300, but Overstock's Hero Chair ($250) does just that. And even better? $50 of that price tag is actually directly donated to the Wounded Warrior Project, a program which serves the wounded men and women of the United States armed forces by raising awareness, enlisting public aid, and providing programs to meet Read more

Desire/Acquire: Hans Wegner's Wishbone Chair

On the heels of my 10 Knockoff Designer Chairs From Overstock slideshow, I found a knockoff of noted midcentury Danish designer Hans Wegner's Wishbone Chair ($730), designed in 1949. The Wishbone Chair, also known as the CH24 Chair or the Y Chair, is a small, light armchair with a gracious shape and elegant Y-shaped back. It offers good support, is easy to move around in, and can be pulled up Read more

Overstock Selling Largest Floor Rug in the US . . . For $135,000

Overstock has made a name for itself by selling surplus merchandise to consumers at deeply discounted prices — and always shipping for only $2.95. Cheap is the word that the company most brings to mind. But there's one product that most definitely calls for an exception. The Rare Antique Meshkabad Persian Rug, at 26 feet, nine inches by 37 feet, retails for a whopping $135,000. The Read more

10 Knockoff Designer Chairs From Overstock

Overstock.com makes a business out of selling surplus, returned, and new items which from the get-go are usually more affordable than the products at full retail in other stores. Top that with the fact that Overstock always ships for only $2.95 (even furniture), and you've got yourself one hell of a bargain. But just because something's cheap doesn't mean it's beautiful, right? Think again. As it Read more

Summer Style: Outdoor Rugs at Overstock.com

Overstock.com can be a wonderful shopping treasure — kind of like a low-rent ShopStyle. But, unless you have the patience to dig through its wealth of tacky inventory, it is a pain in the bottom. Since I noticed that they have a vast selection of outdoor rugs, and I told you that outdoor rugs were a must-have this month, I decided to be a good friend and weed through them for you. Overstock Read more

Get a Great Deal on iPhone Cases on Overstock.com!

Overstock is one of those sites that I totally forget about and then remember AFTER I've bought something I could have gotten there for half the price. What I also constantly forget about Overstock is the availability of good tech accessories. Which is a shame, because I tend to stockpile cell phone cases and iPod docks like it's my job (oh wait). Anyway, I just jumped on their tech accessories Read more

Steal of the Day: Hand-Tufted Zebra Rug

Oh, Overstock, sometimes you tempt me with items I wouldn't normally order for my rather laid-back, nonanimal-hide-decorated home. For instance, it seems a shame to pass up this Zebra Stripe Rug (on sale for $239.99, originally $749). At an expansive 5-x-8 feet, this hand-tufted wool rug will add a safari flair to your home. If you need some inspiration on how to make it fit, Desire to Inspire Read more

Steal of the Day: Petite Sphere Crystal Table Lamp

Overstock has been a good friend in the past, when it comes to steals. Today, I am bestowing upon you their Petite Sphere Crystal Table Lamp ($50). Its crystal ball base is simple, elegant, and chic — just the thing to shed a little light on a small side table or your favorite cozy corner. I'd suggest picking up another shade, though; the camel-colored shade that comes with it is a bit Read more

Steal of the Day: Hand-tufted Blue Stripes Wool Rug

I'm a loyal supporter of Overstock.com. Their inventory is enormous; it's all discounted; it's changing all the time; and last but not least, the cost of shipping is always just $2.95. Yes there's a lot of ugly in there, but if you take the time to sift through it all, it might be worth it. Doing just that, I found this gem: an 8' x 10' hand-tufted blue striped wool rug ($247), which originally Read more
