Dillard’s

The Dillard’s Clearance Center at Boyton Beach Mall is pretty interesting. It’s kind of like high class thrifting. The building has an odor to it that makes you feel like you’re inside of a Goodwill, people are legit rummaging and the deals are pretty great.
I have a friend who turned me onto this place and she told me, that again, much like a Goodwill, they have certain types of specials every day and list them on their Facebook page.
The store is full of various finds: dress shirts, shoes, some home goods. Really, if you wanted to, you could spend hours here. I believe there used to be a second floor to it but now is limited to one floor.
The fashions may not always be my thing but I’ve found some good deals here. You can get great work shoes here and your basics like ties, socks, and dress pants. Naturally, the selections here are much wider for women, but they do have a large men’s collection.
The thing is: you have to really be in the mood to look. This isn’t a place you go when you need something specific. This is a place you come to browse and hope you find something you may or may not need.

Pretty blah to me… I’m no snob but…
There was a weird smell in the air and merchandise. I initially went there for some work shoes and some bedding. The comforters which I wanted to get smelled really bad. I was thinking in my head no matter the price, I rather not buy them because I wasn’t sure if I would get the smell out.
I wanted to check out some flats for work but didn’t have much luck in my shoe size. But I think that was because we went the Sunday after Black Friday.
I have admit people were buying a lot of things because the deals were there if you were interested. The choices were few though. I bought one tissue box decoration thing for a bathroom and called it a day.
Their store hours are less then the mall hours so make sure before you go.

What a shocker!!!
I have not been to a Dillard in almost a decade and on the insistence of my better half we decided to go there on Black Friday weekend. We got there late on Friday evening but the store was closed by then. Now I would have imagined the biggest day of the shopping year the store would have longer hours.
Didn’t really matter!!! We got there Sunday morning and this didn’t look like a departmental store. This looked like a flea market clothing store. Actually the flea market second hand clothing store looks better.
The store was filled with clothes with no space to walk or shop enjoyably. Even in the walking areas they had stuffed clothes with 65% off original prices throughout the store even though the quality of the products were extremely poor.
Can’t believe Dillard’s has fallen so much. Hopefully management reads this and improves their stores and the shopping experience for there customers.

My boss swears by Dillard’s clearance center, she turned me on to it if you want some nice things and don’t want to break the bank!

This is a clearance center, which means all the awesome stuff that didn’t sell at Dillard’s is available at this clearance center. Usually, all at 65% off. Now Dillard’s has done something all the other department stores should do, have clearance centers, not outlets or sell their stuff to discount stores. Ross and Marshall’s are no longer discounting their stuff past 50% off. This recent shopping trip, I spent $ 190 for 16 sweater vest and a pair of swimming shorts. Top notch and name brand. I go back to Illinois and people think I am rich on my job to wear Tommy Hilfiger and nautica. Nope, I have Dillard’s.
