Search for the item you need. When you find what you like, right click copy the image and do a reverse image search on google images. AKA google lense. Click on the "camera" icon at images.google.com or go this url https://images.google.com/?gws... and drag or paste the item into it.
This should bring up numerous photos of the actual item on various pages. Click on those photos and you should find the actual vendor that Wayfair or Overstock is scraping from. I've seen stuff thats $600 on Wayfair at half the price. What those sites at least do well is giving you options that you can filter, because Amazon filters and search terms don't work for ****.

As the resident deal poster, I haven't had much luck with this myself. I have tried it a few times but it didn't yield the results I was hoping. Just my experience.

Happy Hunting!
Pretty cool if it works.
For some things it probably won't. I was looking specifically for dressers, which IMO are the toughest item to shop on a budget for, and good brands are already expensive so they seem that charge in line with that. Amazon is already pretty competitive already so I wouldn't expect much of a spread there but I've seen some pretty significant markups on Wayfair and Overstock. Their business model is scraping the internet for every furniture vendor and charging whatever markup they can get away with. One of the image searches linked me to a site specifically for commercial hospitality purchasing.
I could see this working for dining tables and nightstands as well.
