Definitely IKEA... I love their stuff, especially if you're just starting out... Although you can buy online, if you can get to one of their stores, it's even more fun, as they're set up all over the store as if you're walking thru people's rooms.... Just like in a magazine. And they have great deals! The furniture is quite sturdy, too. Oh... and in the stores, they always have a section for end-of-line items that are inexpensive and slightly damaged goods... You'll be amazed at what you find.
Here's the link:

Occasionally, I find a great buy on Overstock, gotta love the discounts and the almost free and sometimes free shipping costs.
I purchased a bed frame and a mahoghany cabinet there.
Another consideration is nextag, they do a comparison between multiple vendors to identify your lowest prices.

There are many great websites online for finding reasonably priced, high quality furniture: furniture.com, ikea.com, everything furniture.com, ashleyfurniture.com, thomasville.com, perfect-coffee-tables.com and more. Try searching on google.com for more great sites. Just make sure to stick with name brands and from sites that have good return/refund policies.

Try Ikea, if you don't mind assembling stuff yourself. You can't beat the style and price.
