Faux Fur Hides: Popular Home Decorating Alternatives

This summer, GoShopUs.com introduced to its online catalog its line of faux fur rugs. Unlike the fake fur hide rug of the past, today’s faux rug is a stunning alternative to its genuine fur counterparts. Since they are manufactured to strict quality control standards, fake fur rugs are often thicker, softer, and more luxurious than real fur. The pile and color are carefully controlled to produce a beautiful faux fur hide rug worthy of a place in your home.

Even environmentally conscious home decorators appreciate the eco-friendly nature of our fake fur hides. Since our faux rugs are made entirely of an acrylic/polyester blend, they are hypoallergenic, stain-resistant, and cruelty-free. This makes faux fur hide rugs a popular alternative to real animal fur and a compliment to virtually any living space.

As the owner of a new home, I purchased a faux sheepskin hide to snuggle on in front of the fireplace. The Kanecaron fibers used in faux sheepskin pelts look and feel like the real thing. My guests often comment on how nice it is to step off the cold tile and sink their toes into the warm plush softness of my faux sheepskin rug. The vulcanized latex backing keeps my rug in place, so I never have to worry about it slipping. Best of all, this gorgeous 3'X5' faux sheepskin pelt beautifully compliments my home decor. With the wide selection of colors available including tiger, polar bear, zebra, and more, there is an array of choices to fit your home decorating style as well.

GoShopUs.com offers FREE U.S. shipping on all orders, including faux fur hide rugs. Save 10% OFF your entire order by entering promo code GSUSAVINGS at checkout.

GSU Customer Photos of New Outdoor Standing Ashtray

A GoShopUs.com customer recently e-mailed us photos of his new Cigamate portable outdoor ashtray. The outdoor smokless ashtray that was purchased in April 2009 is getting lots of use on his home's front deck. He tells GoShopUs:

"Cigamate looks great on my deck and I no longer see cigarette butts all over my front lawn and in the bushes! I highly recommend these eco-friendly outdoor ashtrays to all my cigar- and cigarette-smoking friends who are tired of always bending over to clean up their smokers' waste."

-Bill M.

GoShopUs.com Gets Personal On Facebook

Now it’s even easier to find GoShopUs.com on Facebook.

In June, the discount home décor e-retailer launched two Facebook vanity URLs—Profile Page http://facebook.com/GoShopUs and Fan Page http://facebook.com/GoShopUsFans.

Having a personal username provides Facebook users with a simple way of finding friends and organizations. GoShopUs first learned about the introduction of Facebook’s optional vanity usernames on Mashable, the world's largest social media and Web 2.0 news blog.

When the clock struck 12:01am EST on Saturday, June 13, 2009, anxious Facebook users – on a first come, first serve basis – frenzied to grab their free personal destination URLs. And, GoShopUs.com was part of the action! In the first day, more than 3 million usernames were claimed.

Facebook Fan Pages with at least 100 supporters were allowed to register a vanity Fan Page URL beginning on Sunday, June 28. The following day, GoShopUs.com Fan Page launched their new URL.

In May, GoShopUs.com joined the Twitter community and can be followed at http://twitter.com/GoShopUs.
