Need new furniture during COVID-19 pandemic? This retailer has you covered

SAN ANTONIO – While you're at home during this time, are you realizing you need some new furniture?

Furniture stores may be closed temporarily, but there are ways to support local businesses online.

During the stay-at-home orders, Louis Shanks Furniture store is still available to assist with your furnishing needs.

"We've seen a lot of ups and downs over those years," said Michael Forwood, store owner of Louis Shanks Furniture. "It's because of the amazing customers in Austin and San Antonio. We'll get through this and be here for our community for 75 more."

The retailer now provides a portal (the blue bubble) on its website to directly communicate with customers.

If you would like to speak with a representative, just click on that bubble, and an associate will get back with you quickly.

You can also experience a virtual tour of the showroom while in the comfort of your home, via FaceTime or Skype.

Louis Shanks Furniture is adding 25% value to any gift certificate purchase. For example, if you spend $800, you will receive a $1000 gift certificate.

The process will take place online. Once purchased, you can print or bring in your text to redeem the certificate.
