Today I decided to take a quick trip to the outlet stores in my area.
This photograph shows the outside of a few stores.
We went shopping early, so there were only a few people out.
Outlet Food CourtThis is the food court at the outlet.
I rarely eat there as I like to stop on the way home for lunch.
This photograph shows a large cylinder structure in the middle of the food court. The circular bands are wood tone colors.
There are some very long ivy plants growing inside the cylinder.
Sidewalk at Outlet Grocery Store, Dinning Room AreaAfter shopping, I stopped in a local grocery store for lunch. However, it was an extremely busy shopping day at that store. The store was packed and the lines for sandwiches had several people in them.
I decided to try to try the hot food choices but discovered my favorite salmon and asparagus dishes were all gone. The only non fried food choice I could find was one small Peruvian drum leg. I also had some cauliflower, a vegetable egg roll, and a spoon of cold mixed squash.
The above photograph shows the dinning room area on the second floor of the store.
I enjoyed eating up there since it was much quieter.
What Did I Buy?
Holiday Sock Sale Queen Sized Mattress Pad Blue T-Shirt with Print Pattern Blue Peasant Top with Long SleevesWhen shopping at the outlet keep in mind you want to save money as well as get a deal on something you can use.
I liked the holiday llama and the ice skating cat socks. They were well made and marked down from $7.50 each to only .89 cents. I grabbed a handful of those. No one is going to see your socks when you wear pants. The duo slipper sock was $2.59 marked down from $20.00 and has anti skid dots on the bottom.
I found a great deal on t-shirts. This blue t-shirt was only $7.09 marked down from $28.00. This is going to be a gift.
I think my best bargain by far is is the queen sized mattress pad purchased in the Williams-Sonoma Outlet for only $12.68. It was originally priced at $39.00 on the markdown section. It was considered a special program item marked down an additional 40% off.
I had a great day shopping, saving money, and buying some items I needed. Today I definitely had some good shopping vibes going on.
