| - I've been here quite a few times. There are lots of good stores, but this isnt the fancy outlet center. There are no fancy stores here at all. This outlet center is for the average shopper. this is the place you go when you need to buy tennis shoes, athletic wear or everyday wear. I've purchased shoes @ Nike, at Famous Footwear (the one where you earn points, etc) They have Reebok, Nike and 2 adidas stores. Nike at least has crappy socks for you to try on shoes b/c lets face it, this is the dessert, odds are we are wearing sandals. Adidas and reebok dont have this unless you specificaly ask for a pair of socks.
They also have the great kitchen stuff store. I LOVE this store.You always find neat things in here that you didn't even know existed.. and you think to yourself wow, that's something that I need...I've always avoided, this or that b/c I didnt like this or that - but now that I have this gadget, wow I'm going to start eating healthier. Tools that have changed my life:
The apple core-er. Wow. Love it. Got mine for $5 @wal-mart but still..
The orange cutter. wow. Its like a ring you roll over the orange and it cuts the peel off into perfect slices. wow. all I can say.
The ultimate discovery- that i've actually been searching for - forever.. Even Williams Sonoma doesnt carry. The TUNA strainer!. OMG. I finally found it and it even had a magnet on the back to take out the metal lid. Dang, that's exactly why I dont eat tuna b/c I dont like to strain the can, it goes everywhere, and I dont want to pay 2-3 the $ of the can to buy the pouch pre-drained. and that one is usually very dry. This is perfect.
One day I went out here and found it and got in line, guess what? left my card in a book bag from buying books @ CSN earlier that day
So I went back... guess what? Sold out. arrrghh...
The only thing I hate is the parking. trying to get in and out of here is annoying. But they have tons of restaurants inside the mall - they have 2 food courts, but they also have a strip of restaurants outside too. Everything u want from Chipotle, MCDonald's, Dickey's BBQ, BWW, La cocina, Outback, dunkin donuts, Weinerschnitzel, did i spell that right?
Now the worst part of this place, which is why they lost another star is the kiosk people. If I dont want to buy anything, I dont want to buy anything. If I dont' stop @ your kiosk, that's b/c I don't have any interest in buying anything from you. Please don't try to hand me free things or put a stupid sticker or stamp on my already done nails (that I do myself for free, thanks).
I feel sorry for these folks b/c I know they are only doing their job but... dang. its a lose lose. you dont have this problem when you go the outlets up north - by downtown, and there you will find fancier stores. PACKED @ XMAS. wow. LINES OUT THE DOOR!.
MY FAV stores here however are:
Nike, Adidas, Famouse Footwear bc/ they sell all diff. shoes and you can earn points toward $10-$15. off. Coach, (those girls are pushy though.. you need't tell me how much everything costs when I pick it up) Guess, VF (for undergarments, Maidenform, and Bally. bras for $15!. You can't beat it!
