Don’t be fooled, Outlet does not necessarily mean cheap or discount. Think of these stores as ‘product that has already been on display’, perhaps past season. I stopped with my teen daughter on our way back to Indianapolis, thinking we’d find some deals. We stopped into Claire’s boutique for a birthday gift and found nothing that could not have been found at the mall for the same prices. Ditto the Charlotte Russe store. In fact, I was pretty surprised that the jeans and dress she bought were both $ 30. No deal, but we rarely shop together, so I didn’t debate. Honestly, you can get much better deals shopping online or waiting for a sale at your favorite store. The distance means your option for returns are limited, IF they even allow it. Not at all impressed.
