We all enjoy decorating our first place or redecorating our current one. Once we see a look we want to achieve, the cost of everything can quickly become a discouragement.
Do not let price tags ruin your décor dreams. You can achieve all of your décor fantasies by shopping for bargains. We know we want everything we see in Pier 1, Cost Plus and Pottery Barn, but the same look can be achieved by shopping at HomeGoods, Ross and believe it or not, high end stores as well.
With that said, let’s discuss the steps required to create your ideal space on any budget. For starters, determine your honest budget. This will keep you on track and keep money in your pocketbook. Now, what does your space need? What room or rooms are being redecorated? Questions like this will help you comprise a list to avoid emotional spending. So, you have your honest budget, and a list, now let’s get to the stores.
Ross – Ross is a great place for bargain prices. You will find bedding, seating options, bath accessories, kitchen items and much more. Ross is the type of place that you will have to visit quite often due to frequent changes. Our best advice is, if you see something you like then, get it!

HomeGoods – HomeGoods is home décor on steroids. They are a little pricier than Ross, but well worth it. HomeGoods offer quality items, at bargainista prices. You can find art pieces, exotic vases, a large variety of lighting options, end tables and so much more. For inspiration, follow @homegoods on Instagram.
Online is the best method for bargain shopping, especially for non-bargain stores. Online stores usually offer free shipping after spending a certain amount. Cost Plus and Pier 1 Import offer 10 percemt off your purchase for joining the mailing list. A true bargainista takes advantage of all savings!
Just because you’re a bargainista, does not mean that you are forbidden to go into non bargain stores. With the savings you have from bargain shopping, you will be able to buy that tufted headboard from Pier 1, or that eight-person formal dining table from Cost Plus. While you’re there, see what’s on sale. You may luck up on even more must-haves!
