Coat trees

Please tell me someone out there knows what a flippen coat tree is? Well half of Minnesota does not have a clue what it is. I decided to go to Target the other day to try and find this coat tree and the guy I asked just looked at me and asked what I was talking about. So I explained it to him and such...oh FYI Target DOES NOT have coat trees in their store. So I proceed to walk over to Home Depot and ask them...same reaction. The first lady had to point me to a new person to ask because she had no clue what I was talking about...FYI Home Depot ALSO DOES NOT sell coat trees.


For those of you who do not know what a coat tree is...it is a stand that you can hang your coats on. Jeesh!

Haha, I've never heard it called a coat tree before!! I'm from Minnesota and I've always thought of it as a coat rack, but I'll definitely start calling them coat trees, it makes me laugh :)

It is really surprising that two major retail outlets do not have a single coat tree/rack. Personally, I would think it would be a coat stand but tree works as well if not better.
