Houston furniture store owner opens doors to flood victims 

Charlotte Lister w

How I remember him!! Live Houston when he first started!!

Smiles

ohhhhhh yeah

Patrick Carroll Yes he is an *ANGEL*

I'm starting to feel bad for the man as reality sets in my thoughts. He's doing such a great thing but is going to be faced with some very difficult decisions. Through his kindness he has put himself in a position to have to either kick people out, or shelter and feed them for the long haul.. And I mean the LONG haul.. He mentioned 7 days being a ballpark number for the worst case scenario. I wouldn't expect the man to care for so many for such an extended period, but I'd imagine many will be needing a lot of help for much longer than 7 days.

Magneticitist that's not true coz fema is giving people hotel rooms. Also there are going to be other places for them to go eventually

Patrick Carroll We need more people just like Mr. Mack. He is an exceptional person.

Amen! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lZw2Pejw1M0.html

mark rigsby there's no time to criticize is time to help. Wat Jesus will do?

Jason Castro I think the people will remember all his life.

I can seen lines of vehicles from all over Texas causing traffic jams to load up on his furniture. This sort of act can often be an inadvertent good investment in public relations. I'm sure that is not his motive but you can't buy that kind of publicity. When I was a child there was a gentleman who we called Santa Claus. We knew he wasn't the real Santa Claus but he might as well have been. He owned a big toy store, the only one in the town I grew up in. Every year he closed his store the day before Christmas when everyone else kept their businesses open. Then, working on a list provided by local churches and charities, he and his employees drove a fleet of trucks around town and delivered toys to children in need and they often didn't finish their deliveries until after sun up on Christmas day. He did have a long white beard and he dressed the part too. Imagine being an underprivileged seven year old child and a man in a red suit and long white beard pulls up a truck in front of your house Christmas morning (the truck had a sleigh and reindeer painted on the side) and opens up the back, sets up some stairs and invites you to come into the back to pick out some toys. He let you pick out any three toys you wanted. Many were quite expensive. After that his store would close down for a couple of days. He paid all his employees extra bonuses for their participation on Christmas eve and Christmas day and I doubt any refused. Then he gave them all a few days off with pay to enjoy with their own families. The rest of the year his toy store was the busiest in that part of the state and it was no wonder why. Everyone knew what he did. He really lived up to his motto "We make children happy!" In my town, everyone believed in Santa Claus!

Jason Castro, this man called Jim the Mack probably need not advertise again. This city will NEVER forget him. I want to be bold to say that most of the people that their furnitures were damaged by the storm are going to his stores. Wow! I have no words to describe that man. I am glad that I share the same city with him. He's always been like that. His heart is the reason. As for me, from now on if I want to spend any money on any furniture I'm going to the GF.

nunya biznez But he did it when hurricane Katrina hit too. Did it effect his business back then? And I'm sure other people brought this attention to the media, not him. He does look humble and he gave his parents the credit not himself.

Dude only now at 35 can I afford his furniture. I paid $7,000 for a couch god damn... but I won’t ever shop anywhere else

22aryel I absolutely agree with you!!!! Amen

YES!!!

22aryel I got two big boxes getting ready to be filled! I am sending them to Mattress Mack! This bring tears to my eyes! 😢❤😢❤😢❤😢❤

I assure you they know were their money is going just stop.

manniefaces In the bank account of fraudsters who run the donation industry

Amen.

Facts

Amen! I'm so grateful to Mattress Mack for being the amazing man he is!!!

You too Boss. For Diamond Dogs. Thank you for your contribution towards fighting the vocal cord parasite.

Olsteen didn’t open his doors for flood victims but Mack did.

I guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

@Phillip Simon Instablaster ;)

Love love YES MA'AM!!! ON IT!

He doesn't qualify. To be president you have to be a power hungry corrupt liar.

that is true. everyone knows him in Houston by his commercials on tv, amazing man and store.

DoF - Just saw this question today. Many thanks for your concern. Nobody in my family - more than 40 people - flooded. Miraculously, my mother's house in Green Trails (think Barker Cypress dam and flood plane) did not flood. I got a brother similar to Mattress Mack and he owns a big auto repair shop and is also a Fire Chief in West Houston. So, he was out the entire time rescuing folks. Thank you for your prayers and concerns, again. I'm moving back home to Houston in the next two months after being in Pittsburgh for 10 years. It'll be great being back in the loving arms of my family and my beloved home city.

JuMONAE He's got My business.

JuMONAE *Mine too.*

I don't think he is that concerned about his loss of revenue and the good publicity his actions are earning him will most likely make up for it in increased business once he re-opens his store. I would imagine that once he does, if he just puts a little sign on each mattress reading "slightly used by our guests" he'll have no problem selling them above cost. Same goes for any other furniture in his shops and people will drive from miles away just to buy from him. If I was in need of furniture I would drive a truck to his store to buy some and I live in Florida.

JuMONAE People will buy more from him...especially knowing his story

JuMONAE All the money he loses will be a tax write off.

People like you give a bad name to your religion, so you hate on others because they don't believe in your god? There are a lot of religions on this planet, and there have been many more. So you want anyone to suffer simply because they don't follow your specific religion? What a good representative of your religion you are.

How does what Toolman wrote, translate to "hate" and "want(ing) anyone to suffer"? It doesn't. Toolman was writing in reference to prophecy, not hate. When he wrote the contextually obvious figure-of-speech > "let the Atheists suffer", that was in reference to their angst that they will disapprove of the above "God Bless" remark. One has to dishonestly embellish what was actually said in order to claim that Toolman said anything "hateful" or of bad representation. What you're doing is creating false accusations in order to pressure people to censor themselves unnecessarily, to surrender their freedom of speech, especially the ones you're targeting. It's Social Pressure, and using Social Engineering Provocateurs online to pressure people through false accusations. You're accusing Toolman of being hateful, when he wasn't. Are they paying you enough to do this " job"?

I am an atheist. I don't get mad when people speak kindly of others. The sentiment is intended as a good gesture so why should anyone get mad? It seems to me you have a lot of hate in your heart. I don't believe in fairy tales but of someone says "may the Easter Bunny bless you" I would not be offended. If my Muslim friend says "May Allah bless you" I am neither angered nor offended. Most atheists would not. I seem to remember a nice man about 2000 years ago spoke of love. Perhaps you should pay more attention to his wisdom and a little less attention to the hate in your heart. I don't have to believe in magic to embrace his philosophy which you do not seem to do.

The phrase "let [fill in your choice of demographic] suffer" is a phrase of hate. Claiming that some ancient writing says it's OK to say doesn't change that fact. And for your information, most of us atheists don't have any "angst" about people offering blessings to others. I am neither offended nor angered. Occasionally amused depending on the context. Why would I be offended by someone offering good intentions? I don't know any atheist who would be so offended. I would never ask you to surrender your freedom of speech. I would merely point out that occasionally we perhaps should not say everything we have a right to say. Any speech that causes hurt or pain should be avoided. Any speech that brings happiness and joy should be embraced. Would that not be in keeping with the philosophy a certain wise man who lived about 2000 years ago?

+nunya biznez If you'll honestly look around the comments on YT, they get mad all day long at mentions of God, blessings included. That was what, I believe, the commenter was pointing out, and that if they got mad, was the contextual figure of speech, that used the word " suffer". Dishonest people don't want to honestly comprehend figures of speech. Your failure to do so, doesn't equal hate in the writer's heart. These false accusations were, in essence, what he was pointing out. And here you demonstrate taking advantage of the opportunity to accuse. The Man that lived 2000 years ago and still does, was about living the truth as defined by God, with Love, not absent of the truth. Many are happy with lies; so now, many want lies to be honored, and the truth not to be spoken. There is no compatibility between between lies and truth. Lies always cause suffering.

This makes me wanna have a mattress or furniture shipped from houston to my house but I live in Utah 🤣 I'd rather support him then ole fatmart

It's up to 10 now! Some people just wake up negative but Mattress Mack is AWESOME! Beautiful story! I think the pollen is causing my eyes to water............lol

Mrs. Adriann: Thumbs down 19 now...perhaps Joel and family!

Mattress Mac is truly an angel of God!

The down vote was from Joel Osteen

20, now. Must be Antifa.

Felix, not just Lakewood Church, but T D Jakes has a Mega Church in Texas, why aren't they doing what "Matress Mack" is doing??. "Matress Mack" is the true living example of God's chosen.

Their false " churches" aren't in the storm zone.
