Lines-N-Things is back... sort of

I don't know if you guys had a Linens-N-Things where you are, but we used to. (For those who don't know, they were a similiar store to Bed, Bath, & Beyond.) I even shopped for last-minute deals when they were going out of business.

So, just for fun, I went online today (http://www.linensnthings.com) to see if their website was still active. And it appears that they are now an online-only company that sells home goods. I was pretty excited to find a new spot to shop for deals. Except I noticed something.

Linens-N-Things:
Kohls:

Now, granted, the bed is different... but you can see the similarities, right?

Let's try it again:

Kohls:

I mean, on that one there's not even a different bed!

Linens-N-Things also seems to have similiar pricing to Kohls (including seemingly inflated 'compare to' prices). In a couple cases, L-N-T had more options available (i.e. comforter sets AND duvet sets in the same style) but other than that, (and their odd return policy- you have to get a return number before you can return it) not too impressed.

I will say I want this orange decorative pillow though:

... and the white branchy one next to it. Now I just need to find them in the $10.00 range!

  1. I'm going to be decorating an entire house soon (hopefully). I'll be referring to your archives for inspiration. Now find me some funky yet functional furniture.
