I used to work as an accountant in a furniture store....Most of MY furniture came from their 'discontinued, sell it at any cost' area and got a company discount to boot so it was usually less than THEY paid for it wholesale. I would show up early for work just so I could go through that area before customers came in to see what new things were on the chopping block.
