I went this morning, and used the 20% coupon. Nothing all that exciting this trip, but I did pick up a few items.

cz22 · Jun 11th, 2009, 10:45 PM

Today - spectator penelope satchel (looks like lindsay) black leather with patent trim in small (on floor) and large (in back- need to ask). Pink HS convertible hobo. Madison swingpack in tan. Addison (? I think) in black. Small Melon op art sabrina (in back - need to ask).

They have a few full price items in back - gray spectator sabrina, parker small butterfly top handle pouch. When these go on sale, they will probably come out. Though you can ask for and use the 20% off on either.

MFF sig stripe, patch, pleated patent gallery tote, new clutch colors.

Ask for specifics.

I don;t know if you ever look in the briefcase section but were there any big leather totes back there? Thanks!

cz22 · Jun 12th, 2009, 08:38 AM

I didn't really check out the briefcases... Maybe call to ask before you make the trip? The Addison looked like briefcase size, and they have new MFF gallery totes, but I didn't check the luggage/briefcase section.

Thanks. I am headed out to Limerik to see if I can find 2 Her Str items to match my other stuff. Not sure if I will be running to Lancaster.

noshoepolish · Jun 12th, 2009, 12:38 PM

(gosh I should spell check)

cz22 · Jun 12th, 2009, 08:28 PM

I forgot to mention, they also had the exotic flower and butterfly keychain mix. I *think* it was on the $29 rack.

I had heard the rumor but did indeed get confirmation yesterday while at the Outlet......the Wyomissing, PA Outlet Store at Vanity Fair (VF) is closing.
I'll have to shop Lancaster or Limerick.
Oh yeah, I didn't buy a thing with my 20% off coupon either....maybe I should visit Lancaster today.

grayxie · Jun 13th, 2009, 10:07 AM

^^^Ever since that store has moved from the old location I have yet to go there.

When will it close???

noshoepolish · Jun 13th, 2009, 11:41 AM

Oh my. It is way too small anyway. Totally closing and not moving into another area there?

noshoepolish · Jun 13th, 2009, 11:42 AM

But maybe Limerick will start getting better stuff. Their selection has to be the absolute worst.

^^Reading is definitely pretty much a waste and too close to the other outlets. Do we have confirmation of when it's closing?

ITA! Reading was very small and not stocked well when I visited my first time and it was not enough of an impression for me to return!

baglady39 · Jun 13th, 2009, 06:08 PM

^^In the past I used to find that "one item". They have had some rare pieces on and off (good bags), but typically those get shipped to another outlet because they said they can't easily sell the retail bags at the higher prices. For ex, the Lily they had they shipped off, and they also had some of the Chelsea calf hair pieces that were still pretty marked up at the time. I remember I got a Mandy there that I couldn't find that color at Lancaster at the time...and a few pieces here an there. Overall, it has always struck me as a fairly useless outlet.
