lets talk outlets

So on my adventure to become a savvy shopper, I decided to go to the outlets. Actually it was my boyfriends idea but hey what the heck I thought maybe I could find some good deals. So we planned that all day Saturday that we would go. We got early and went. When we got there it was soo packed, I thought oh this is where everyone is shopping now. So I thought well there must be great deals! I got really excited. We went to Norstrom first. Walking in I was taking back because there were so many people just rushing around the store searching for good deals. This is the main reason I hate discount shopping. The atmosphere is nothing like real mall shopping. I get so stressed out from all the people trying to get the best deal. So I went to shoes thinking there would be less people there and I was wrong. I would try on a shoe and someone would come right behind me and grab it after I took it off. It was crazy. But I was real excited because I saw that there was all different really nice designer shoes. But then again another huge disappointment they were still $300!! For a pair of Burberry flats. To me that was not a deal! I was looking to save more than that. So after those disappointments I moved on to different stores. Neimans nothing...still high prices not worth buying. Then Saks...Ok so I found some good deals at there...$200 jeans for $80 which made me really happy. But that's about it! My boyfriend on the other hand found $200 jeans for $60 and others for cheaper. Of course he found better things...which just made me even more mad....

My whole point is that outlets are really not that great...yeah you might save a little but they are not such a huge discount where I would only go shop there now....

This is not really working out for me haha...Still gonna try

  2. I totally agree with you! Outlets get soo crowded and are definately not organized. Sometimes it isn't worth to be in long lines when the discounts are definately not worth it!
