We are shopping for patio furniture. Where to look?
Specifically a 7 piece dining set for the deck and maybe a smaller 5 piece set down by the pool with maybe some loungers.
It would be nice it they somewhat coordinate with these chairs we purchased at 50% off
at HomeDepot on clearance.

We bought 3 sets of the Thomasville Nature's Retreat Bridge Chairs which can be used as 6 individual chairs. We also got the glass coffee table and 2 end tables that we are actually using INSIDE the house right now. Too bad they no longer make or carry the rest of the line. It is a discontinued line and thus the clearance prices at HD.
So, I am looking on the HD, Sears, Macys, Costco and even overstock websites. Any other places to look on-line or visit at a B&M.
My outdoor budget is around $5000. But we spent around $750 for Thomasville chairs and tables already and will be spending around another $699 plus tax for a Weber Genesis E320 grill (at least that is the current decision), so I really want to keep it under $3500 for the rest of the outdoor furniture including all the odds and ends like grill and furniture covers, etc. and maybe even a hammock.
We need a large table to eat at on the deck where the BBQ will be. And definitely something by the pool area which is not that near the house. Either a small dining set or small lounge set and "maybe" 2 lounge chaises.
The area is not that big and it is shady. We are not sun worshippers so the lounge chaises are not a priority. Maybe a hammock would be better.
But we definitely want some seating down by the pool for any adults supervising the kids swimming. We may move some of the Thomasville chairs down to the pool area when we get a dining set for the deck.
I, originally, wanted some really comfortable deep seating sectionals like this one at Costco. http://www.costco.com/Browse/Produc..._Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&topnav=
But the area may be too small AND both my MIL and DH's Aunt complained separately that the Thomasville chairs were too "deep" for them. They like a more upright chair where their feet can touch the ground. Whereas I was thinking of curling my legs up. Lol.
Since, they and maybe some older adults may wind up spending time down by the pool supervising kids at family gatherings, I figure a small dining set with upright chairs would be more ideal in that case...
So, put on your hats, bargain shoppers and help me look!!
OR at least point me in the right direction of WHERE to look besides the places I am already looking. So far, nothing has jumped out at me...
