Favorite places to shop for cheap lamps:

JC Penney
West Elm
Urban Outfitters
Walmart!
Sometimes PB Teen and Land of Nod have great lamps that are cheaper than their "adult" counterparts at Pottery Barn and Crate & Barrel.

Believe it or not, check out the Target web site. They have tons of lamps online and we found a couple of floor lamps that fit the bill at very reasonable prices. True, there are a lot of ugly ones, but if you're patient and look at all of them you'll probably find something that will work.

I need a couple of floor lamps and having a hard time finding some I like at reasonable prices. Any suggestions? I don't like modern or too traditional. Thanks.
