Confessions of a Shopaholic!

I never thought of myself as much of a shopper...that is until I moved to Las Vegas and discovered the outlet malls! They are SO FABULOUS and I will definitely miss this about living here! I am a MAJOR bargain shopper and refuse to pay full price for much of anything so the outlet mall is like heaven to me. There are so many great deals and it has become one of my biggest addictions! I LOVE finding a great deal - It gives me a weird adrenaline rush. The first store I discovered at the Outlets was The Children's Place Outlet and I can not get enough of that store - I buy my kids' entire wardrobes one season in advance and rarely pay more than $5 for anything! It is so awesome! I also love visiting the Disney store, the Osh Kosh Store and the Carter's store. They also have some great stores for me - When I am pregnant, I love going to the maternity store, but they also have lots of other great stores that I enjoy shopping at and can frequently find awesome deals! They just opened up a new wing with a GAP outlet! I have been loving it! I bought a whole bag full of clothes a couple months ago for $25! I rarely buy myself anything, but since the Gap has opened there, I have picked up several new items and decided that buying new clothes is very addicting. Once you realize how much you love having something new to wear, you just can't stop finding other new buys - Good thing there are such good deals! It will probably be better for us financially to move to Cache Valley because it will keep me away from the outlets, but I will definitely miss my shopping!!! There are a few good places in Logan - Old Navy, Kohl's, and a mall, but no Children's Place, no outlets and NO TARGET!!! This one might be hard to recover from, but hopefully I will adjust! At least there is always online shopping...

We have an outlet mall here in CT. It is about 2 hours from my house but I still make the trek. The reward? They also have a Barney's New York so even I can get a treat.

Keep in touch with your friends in Vegas b/c once I couldn't find something here but they had it at at an outlet store in Vegas. My friend picked it up & sent it to me.
