Another incentive for Bay Area folks to go to the Dwell NextHouse in Mountain View this weekend: all DP items on display will be available for purchase at 50% off retail! The chance of a lifetime to 1.) see an awesome prefab home and 2.) go shopping…all at once!

As always, these items go fast so if you see something you love, don’t hesitate.

The full scoop:

1. View all the available items at our online outlet.
2. Unless otherwise noted on our site, the products for purchase are considered “like-new” and were used in the home for staging only. All items are sold “as-is.”
3. All sales are final: No cancellations, returns, or exchanges on outlet purchases.
4. ***All outlet purchases must be picked up on April 6, 2008 between 1:00 pm and 5:00 pm at the Dwell NextHouse in Mountain View (515 Mountain View Ave Mountain View, CA). This is the only day/time/location open for pickup. If you are buying something rather large (i.e. the Blu Dot Small Animal Sofa), please make sure you bring an appropriate vehicle and some extra hands to help you collect the piece.

One additional DP request: Please be courteous to Dwell NextHouse neighbors when picking up items (i.e. do not block driveways, leave a mess, cause a raucous, etc.).

Yes, that header is correct: the SF Sunset House Sample Sale is now 70% off.

We only have a smattering of items available, but the stuff that is there is a steal, no doubt. How often do you come across a $1300 Matteo Cashmere Wrap for under $400? Or, an Emeco Kong Chair for under $700? I am not going to even get into the Blu Dot Modulicious Bed.

If you are not in the SF area, I might suggest booking a flight around the date of January 30th (the one and only pick up date). I have heard a few airlines have some pretty smoking deals at the moment. Just kidding (kind of).

Check out what Sample Sale deals you can’t let pass by.

Also, a friendly reminder that this is the LAST weekend to tour the home.

The Sunset Idea House is open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The final day to view the home is Sunday, January 27. General admission is $20; $15 for seniors on Fridays. No children younger than 10. The house is located at 3029 25th St, San Francisco, CA 94110. Parking is extremely limited. Free shuttles will be offered from the San Francisco General Hospital parking lot. For information, call (800) 786-7375 or visit the Sunset Web site: www.sunset.com. Please be courteous to Sunset House neighbors when viewing the home (i.e. do not block driveways, leave a mess, cause a raucous, etc.).

Well folks, we are nearing the end of the Sunset Hose tour. This weekend and next are your last chances to visit the space. Aye carumba! As if seeing the home isn’t enough, we are selling all the sample pieces from the show online. While you look at the house and view all the incredible ways they have made an urban space as green as possible, why not do a little shopping? The challenge this week: try and get to the Blu Dot Modulicious queen bed or Strut Table in dark olive before I do. Ha! I just can’t decide which one I need more.

Check out all the remaining Sample Sale items before they’re gone.

If you have had an opportunity to go to the Sunset House and view some of our DP items in action, now is your chance to purchase the goods at scandalously low prices. 50% off retail on all Sunset House sample items! Yes, I had heart palpitations too when I first heard of the sale.

We are pleased to announce that our DP Outlet is open for a limited time with free shipping nationwide on all orders over $50!

I know we have talked to a number of you who felt a little left out with our bay area only outlet, so we decided to make the great deals more accessible to everyone in the US.

Here’s the scoop:
• All items are returned merchandise so the majority of the pieces are like new.
• If there are any flaws to an item we have made a note about the condition of the piece under the item title.
• Items are priced 20-40% off of their retail price and we will cover the shipping if your order is over $50.
• Wondering if we can ship to Canada, Hawaii, or Istanbul? Check out our shipping guidelines.
• All outlet sales are final.
• The outlet is only open through November 1st and will be closed for the rest of 2007…so don’t hesitate!

I personally have been a bit obsessive about the items in our outlet and have done a good job of purchasing a pile of pieces for my own collection. Don’t let that item you have been eyeing get away!
