Ok, like most of you, I love a bargain. Who doesn't love getting something for almost nothing? A friend of mine at work told me she had purchased her designer XOXO purse at Burlington, and it was cute. She said she paid $20, and I was blown away. On Thursday, my boyfriend and I decided to check Burlington Coat Factory out, and when we got there, I made a beeline for the purse section.
I was in heaven! I have somewhat of a purse fetish (ask my boyfriend, he can confirm this for you!) and there were four isles of nothing but designer purses. Tommy Hilfiger, Anne Klein, jLo, XOXO... I went up and down these isles, touching each purse and I came to a cute Mint green XOXO purse that I fell in love with. Hesitantly, I checked the price tag. Regular price? $60. Burlington Coat Factory Price? $14.95. My mouth dropped. $15? Sure enough, I checked other price tags, and most all purses there were under $30. So, again with my purse fetish, I snatched that XOXO purse right up, with dreams of buying more purses in the future.
My boyfriend found me (still in the purse isle) and told me he'd found Timberland pants that normally sold for $80 for $35. He then found a pair of Lugs (shoes) that were regularly $80, with a price tag of $34.95. We bought those too. We were both completely impressed with their prices... and these are current fashions, not fashions that are five years old and "throw aways" from the more posh, high class stores. We couldn't spend a whole lot that day, but we have plans to go back again next week and see what other bargains we can find.
Oh yes, and I found a pair of shoes I actually went back to purchase because I couldn't get them off my mind. Shoes & purses... isn't that what it all boils down to anyways? :)
So, my recommendation is to take a trip to your local Burlington Coat Factory and be prepared to be blown away. I highly recommend this store, and will be a frequent shopper. Afterall, who can truly turn down a bargain?
