I'm going in a different direction here and suggest going back to Hanes, rooms to go, Haverty, whatever. You now know the landscape and how the stores operate. Stay firm with the staff regarding whether you want help right then or not. Ask questions, take as much time as you want, be confident, and don't feel like you need to be pressured to do anything.

Anxious uncertainty and indecision are chum in the water for any sales person. Get comfortable in their presence and don't allow yourself to get pushed around and you'll do fine.
