my mother has been going to the prada sample sale every years since like 2002 .. i went once in 2008.

The line is usually out the door and the week before the prada sample sale website becomes active and you have to register for an "appt"

i went to the first appt , the very first day

they had a lot of bags , for good prices .. 500 and less (but i think it was only 2 bags per customer)


they also had a lot of amazing shoes 200 or less for heels and 400 or less for boots

the very last days the cut the prices even more but there isnt much left

I went once in Summer 08. It was the last day of the sale, I didn't see any bags. Some shoes, but really picked over. Still lots of clothing, but not attractive at all.
