Where NOT to Shop on Mem Day
Jun. 1st, 2010 12:59 amSome friends of ours and we considered heading to Woodbury Common in Harriman, NY, to do a little shopping. Matt asked if the outlet center has a webcam, which I researched and couldn't find. So, I called a couple of places: The Eddie Bauer Outlet and the Rochester Big & Tall Outlet store. Both of them told me (at noon) that if I wasn't getting to the center before 2:00 PM, to forget it.
The outlet center employees (ALL STORES) were being bused in from 5 miles away where they had to park over the holiday weekend. One guy over the phone told me that yesterday (Sunday) there had been recurring announcements that "if you don't need to leave for the next hour, don't; there's a 45-minute wait to GET OUT OF THE PARKING LOT."
So, we decided against that option today and went to Century 21, which was FABULOUS! I got three pairs of shorts, 6 pairs of amazing dress socks, a straw hat, two boxer briefs (Lucky Brand), and about 10 t-shirts for Ptown. Amazing shopping today.
