Room Store
I just got my dining room set from The Room Store in Waldorf. They have some really nice furniture and the prices aren't too bad.

We have a beautiful China Hutch and End Tables that we purchased from Raleys in Lexington Park. We just ordered a new sofa and love seat from them as well, but we are just nearing the end of our 5 to 6 week wait period, so we do not have them yet. I'm so excited for their arrival (sad that new furniture excites me). We shopped around and found the best prices there.
Sofa Corner and Thompson's prices were too high.
We also went to Regency (sp?) in Waldorf because they were having a huge 4th of July sale and that place was crazy! Great prices, but people were letting their kids jump on and kick the furniture. Some of the furniture had bird poop on it and pen marks. Yuck!
My cousin goes to Amish Auctions in PA all the time and scores some great furniture for great prices. I cannot remember where in PA though...

I think Thompson's is a nasty place. The furniture is nice, but the prices are too high in my opinion. And their facilities give me the heebie jeebies; it is dark, dirty, and musty smelling.
We went there when we were looking to buy furniture. I was not impressed at all and thought their prices were very high. Unlike some people, we had good luck at the Raley's in Waldorf. We also bought things at the Roomstore in Waldorf. We could'nt find anything we both liked at The Sofa Corner or Raley's in LP.

Thompson's, Raley's, Thompson's, Raley's...
I hate to break it to you, but if you drive North of Sandy Bottom, the Earth doesn't end, and you won't be thrown into a pile of sea serpents.
I highly recommend 'The Room Store' in Waldorf for living room furniture. A sad selection of bedroom/dining room stuff, but the selection and quality of their living room furnishings is top-notch.
There is a furniture outlet just North of Waldorf on 301 that has great bedroom sets at very low prices. Racking my brain, but just can't think of the name. Also, some very nifty living room table sets, all on the cheap.
You should be able to walk out of both of the above stores with a cumulative bill well under $2K.
Avoid Marlo. Poor quality, and the design is Al Quaida living abroad on per diem. (Gold dolphins vomiting water into a gold pool between purple velour chaise longues.) Avoid!!!
Buy cheap but serviceable stuff until you can afford a house with a workshop and a good table saw, router, and pocket hole set. Your great-grandkids will be making your great-great-grandchildren on the bed that you made in your shop.

Similar thing happened to me with Nationwide Warehouse and Furniture in Alexandria, VA. They wrote a check they're arse couldn't cash. Gave me the blues and it took a month for me to actually receive my furniture because they didn't want to deliver down here on a weekend and I refused to take off from work when I was promised the delivery day of Saturday that they let me choose.
I actually went to a lawyer after fighting with them on my own and it was A Shane Mattingly who saved the day and I got my stuff delivered that Sunday after Shane called that Friday. Shane is so Boss.

Sounds like the Bargain Barn. But, they have an excuse what's up with Thompson's?
Speaking of the furniture store in Mechanicsville called Mattress and Furniture or some crap is a rip-off. Before I bought the house one of the things that excited me most was the Family Furniture circular. I would cut out pics and paste them in my homebuying journal and I had the costs figured out to a tee. Don't ask how I ended up at Nationwide.
Anyway, I wanted to buy in SoMD so I stopped at that place and the furniture in their notebooks is the same furniture that FF has. Except the prices are UFB... In addition, they tell you that the stuff comes from their distributor in New York and so the cost for that is also on the buyer. It was hard to not say I saw their items in the FF circular for less.
One thing I can say about furniture places here is that they are probably more pricey (and some better quality) than the chains closer to DC because they are not as big and the clientele is limited due to location and supply and demand.
I bought my son a new mattress at Mattress Corner and it was the one on a bunk bed display. They didn't have any mattresses sold separate from the boxspring in the store and we didn't need it. I was able to get the display mattress for a discount of $89 and it was a nice mattress and I feel it was worth the price.
My own mattress set is a pillow top from Nationwide and they were on discontinue for $99 each piece. It was a steal but at the same time it is not good quality meaning if I was married I would not have bought it because it wouldn't last for more than 3-5yrs if that.
And my whole point of saying that is to say that it is important to shop around because some places may sell some things in good quality but other things in mediocre quality especially when it comes to brands. Do your research.

Thanks Mike!
Regency had good bedroom sets at great prices. (Albeit in a warehouse environment, replete with birds.) I was most impressed with some of their coffee/end table selections. My favorite was a metal set crafted from gray painted/anodized angle stock, with fired but unglazed earthtone ceramic tiles as the tableau. (Looked a lot better than my description.) I would have bought the set, but I knew that I would eventually lose a pinky toe to the metal edges.

We got our new sofa and love seat from Raleys today!!!! The sofa has the recliners on either end and it is awesome!!!
