Why we don't do Black Friday.

Why we don't do Black Friday.
All year around, we’re all inundated with endless promo sales—email after email, ad after ad, all claiming “last chance for 20% off” or “don’t miss our biggest sale of the year”. Yet, more often than not, these same companies seem to have another “biggest sale” just around the corner, conveniently tied to the next holiday on the calendar.
To us, this trend in sales tactics feels insincere. It often signals a strategy where products are marked up by 15-20+% just so they can appear generously discounted, all while maintaining their desired profit margins. When companies are perpetually running sales, they risk devaluing not only their products but also their brand as a whole.
At Department Home, we take a different approach. We don’t rely on constant discounts or flashy promotions. Instead, we price our cabinets fairly and transparently—ensuring that we can produce high-quality products, pay our team livable wages, and create a workplace where people are truly invested in what we do. This commitment shows through in the quality of our craftsmanship, our customer service, and, ultimately, the experience we deliver to you.
With that in mind, we’d love for you to shop with us this holiday season. If you're reading this when it's posted, you can, of course, continue to place orders or reach out with any questions, but we will not ship orders or answer emails until we return on Monday. It’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of the busy holiday season, but we believe in fostering a healthy work-life-balance and acknowledging the hard work our team puts in throughout the year. 
Thank you for supporting us, and we hope you have a wonderful holiday!
P.S. Yes, we do have a “Sale” section! From time to time, you’ll find rare B-Stock items or cabinets that have been patiently waiting a bit too long in our Ready-to-Ship collection. If you haven’t already, be sure to sign up for our newsletter to stay updated on new additions to the Sale section—you might just find the perfect piece at an incredible value!
