Furniture jokes, stories
Furniture is not an inherently funny subject. There are a thousand jokes that start out “A guy walks into a bar…” but how many have you heard that begin with “A guy walks into a furniture store”? Anyway, I thought I should try to scrounge up a little bit of furniture humor.
Several years ago in our store I marked the price of a Van Gogh print at $40,000,000 (this is a true story). Then I put a line through the price and the words “NOW ONLY $449.00”. A lady asked me why it had been marked down so much, and I told her it was because I found out that it was not an original. “Oh” she said, as if this made perfect sense, and never cracked a smile.
A couple was in a furniture store lamenting over the price of a bedroom set. The salesman told them “here’s what you do: you finance it, then you don’t make any payments for a year”. “Who told you about us?” the woman snapped back.
A Danish furniture sales-rep was in Paris and noticed a beautiful woman smiling at him. Unfortunately they discovered that they had no common language with which they could communicate. The woman drew a picture of a wine glass, so he nodded and they went to a restaurant and ordered a bottle of wine. Then, on a napkin, she sketched two plates of food. After a wonderful meal the beautiful lady, with a smile, handed the sales-rep a drawing of a bed. And, as he tells the story, “to this day, I don’t know how she knew I was in the furniture business”.
