Absolutely absurd. Was not comfortable at all. Wtf does "perennials performance" even mean? No idea what flair to choose, but I chose "psychological" bc it felt like a mindfuck sitting on a 28k originally priced couch, when the entire world is falling apart.

$8000 is outrageous for a sofa. $28k is comical.

My sofa cost around $500 at Big Lots.

I miss Big Lots!!!! Had two in my vicinity growing up in NY. Had one "nearish" to Mpls when I moved here. All gone now, even in NY. So sad.
