=========================
I may be a little more "up front" then you ... I visit a few local
furniture stores and just tell the salesperson what I am really
doing...

1.. Tell them I am a hobbyist woodworker,
2. Tell them I am looking for ideas for a future woodworking project

Honestly I never had a problem with the Sales staff and never has
anyone not allowed me to take a few digital pictures...

They frequently volunteer to give me brochures

BTDT. And where does she go to purchase?
