Thousands of Boston Red Sox fans are sitting pretty.
That's because back in March they took advantage of a local furniture store's promotional offer for full rebates if the Red Sox win the World Series.
Jordan's Furniture promised free sofas, chairs and beds to customers who bought between March 7 and April 16th, if the Red Sox win the title.
With the Red Sox holding a 3-0 Series lead over the Colorado Rockies, callers to Jordan's were being directed to its
Web site for information on applying for rebates.
Jordan's took about 30,000 orders during the promotion.
Chief executive Eliot Tatelman hasn't disclosed how much the rebates would be, but he won't have to pay it all. He bought an insurance policy to cover losses if the team wins.
