Redundancy

I took a different route home from work today. I passed a furniture store. It sold only furniture, as evidenced by its name and slogan. For example's sake, let's say the store was Lots of Furniture and its slogan was "The best place to buy furniture." It had an elaborately painted advertisement on its front windows that said, "Furniture Sale."

Couldn't they have just called it a sale? Did they really have to specify that the sale covered furniture?
