September is National Home Furnishings Month and many Las Vegas stores are joining the campaign to award one lucky winner mortgage payments for one year.

With a total of 8,000 stores across the United States joining in the campaign, The World Market Center is preparing to give one lucky winner the grand prize of mortgage payments for one full year. The actual prize will be $24,000 in cash, calculated to be the average mortgage expense of $2,000 per month.

One of the most active participants in this sweepstakes has been the Ashley Furniture Home Store with several locations around Las Vegas and nearby Henderson. Another store that has joined in and is now promoting the sweepstakes actively is Walker Furniture on Martin Luther King BLVD. in Las Vegas.

"National Home Furnishings Month was created to unite retailers, providing them with the necessary tools to inspire a newfound customer enthusiasm," said WMC President and CEO Bob Maricich.

"We believe the new addition of the Home Mortgage Sweepstakes for 2010 is compelling for both retailers and consumers, providing an exciting opportunity for families to ask themselves what long dreamed-of items they would purchase for their homes if they had the extra money in their pockets each month," he said.

This initiative is the second of its kind and takes place from September 18th-26th, during National Home Furnishings Month. For over a week, 300 stores participating in the campaign will offer special deals and sales to celebrate the yearly event.
