Desk Chair Shopping Was a Bust for the Most Part

Tweet

We went to Office Max and perused their selection of chairs. I wanted a high-back chair to rest my head. I didn't want leather or fake leather because of the cat's nails and because it cracks. I wanted fabric, possibly mesh. Chair prices were OUTRAGEOUS! The very cheapest one we saw was $169 and didn't have a high back or any arms to it. I sat in one that was surprisingly very comfortable but didn't have a price on it. It was one of those mesh back ones for air flow and ergonomics. We had to flag down a sales associate to look up the price. It was $469. I couldn't have said "NO!" any quicker than I did. We passed on all the chairs at Office Max/Office Depot and looked online at Sam's Club, Walmart, and Amazon. After much intense searching I found one on Amazon for $79 that looked like the one I sat in and liked at Office Max. It'll be delivered on Monday so I guess we'll find out then. I had no idea that office furniture was so expensive now.
