Furniture Outlet Opens in East Hanover

Finally, some new life around town.

If you drive by the old CompUSA building on Route 10 eastbound in East Hanover, you’ll see that a new Furniture Outlet has taken up the space.

It’s now open for business!

It’s not a branded store like the one next to Babies R Us further down on Route 10 west.  It seems generic. . . If you’ve been inside, please post a comment and let us know what kind of furniture they sell inside?

Of course the question is no one is buying new homes these days to fill up with new furniture and if banks have effectively stopped handing out home equity loans, who’s going to be buying new furniture?  We’ll see I guess . . .
