Information on Roy's Furniture, The Stadium Seats Store |
Whether you're looking for chic furniture at affordable prices or some "bachelor-style" to add to your living space, Chicago has it all. And of course Lou Canellis was there to show us the goods.
Roy’s Furniture has a great reputation with old-time Chicagoans, but it’s somewhat of a secret to most folks. Roy himself sells quality furniture at discounted prices. This is because he doesn't advertise and buys directly from the factory.

Now, if you're looking for a piece of Chicago, literally, you may want to head over to the Stadium Seat Store. Diehard Cubbies fans will want to check out these great seats from Wrigley Field. The old treasures sell for $300 for a single chair and $400 per pair.
