The space is beautiful and well staffed. The best thing to do is to develop a relationship with someone who works there who you feel comfortable with and get on their email list. That way you can be the first to hear about any sales. I love working with Cecelia and Pat(formerly at the South End location). Cecelia really knows her stuff and is very warm and friendly. I’ve always felt good about my purchases from her. Other things that make it easier to shop here(if you have the budget!!): regular sales throughout the year, offers of water while you shop, and a small pkg lot behind the shop, off Trowbridge, for loading purposes.
