Every year, 700 manufacturers of juvenile goods
gather in Vegas, showing the latest furniture, gear and accessories. But what do
all those exhibitors do with their samples when the show is
over?
Instead of shipping the furniture
back to their warehouse, most manufacturers quietly sell their wares to a baby
shop near San Francisco (Lullaby Lane in San Bruno). Then it’s sale
time!
This year Lullaby Lane will hold
its annual Trade Show Sample warehouse sale over eight days in November (Nov
11-13, Nov 19-20 and Nov 25-27). Hours are 10 to 4. Prices are up to 60% off
regular prices and the best part: you will find many fancy designer brands that
are hard to get at a discount. Examples: a $300 Pali Dawn crib for $199, a
Morigeau crib and matching dresser and bookshelf for $1398 (regular $2000), Cara
Mia cribs for as little as $199 and so on. You’ll also find glider rockers from
Best Chair, Inglesina Zippy strollers ($229), mattresses and more.
Now, we normally don’t blog about sales,
but this one is so unique, we thought you should know!
The address of the warehouse is 1065 San
Mateo ave. FYI: This about a half mile away from Lullaby Lane’s main store in
downtown San Bruno. For directions, click here or call (650) 588-7644 or 800-588-7644. If
you are near San Francisco next month, check it out. And email us with the deals
you find.
