I love me a good outlet last time I was here was 1yr ago I felt it had more or about the same but I found good deals last year with under armor they year nothing there but they will giving 20% off healthcare workers so that was nice to see. This year I got some socks at Nike and they were on sale and with signing up for Nike app I saved more so I felt I got a nice deal there this year. I love that there are still stores here with Covid and the economy I hope they can stay it is a nice shopping areas I hope to return in the future.

So I expected stores to control the number of people in the store at a time. I also expected to have to wear a mask. What I didn’t expect is several of our go to stores shutdown. Most stores do not have fitting rooms open. Then on top of that, some are not allowing returns. The lines in popular stores were extremely long and I’m guessing at least a forty five minute or more wait. Old Navy had open fitting rooms and that was the only place we bought clothes because with growing kids you can’t buy clothes without trying them on. Plus, living two hours away returns, if possible isn’t a reality. Totally the fault of this virus. I’ve been here many times and this is one of our favorites. Just today was not the day or place for back to school shopping. Local will have to do until guidelines let up.

This Premium outlet is small. They do have good stores and good deals (for a small town) but not exceptional. Other Premium Outlets have terrific deals and way more stores. This one is ok and worth a look but if I’m being honest it’s not one of the best locations, like Chicago’s (Aurora) or Pittsburgh’s (Grove City) outlet malls. Not even close. Still it’s worth a couple hours of deal shopping.
