Back to Chanel I am! haha. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Gucci, but this whole we are not going to have any sales while still running thousands of their own outlets (hyperbole) is slightly ridiculous. When Chanel decided to not doing anymore sales, at least they closed down their only outlet in Woodbury.

Where I live Chanel invite past-customers to sales, no shortage of stock either. BV is another that do the same. Hermes also have HUGE sales. Loro Piana have outlets too. But Gucci have to feed their outlets plus they expanded their online presence since AM took over as CD. Gucci is now on Matches, Browns, N-A-P, and plenty others, doesn't exactly give the impression of exclusivity.
I'm sticking with Gucci though, the quality and beauty of some pieces makes it all worth it for me at the end, when I'm home alone with just the 'thing'. I've always bought at full price and treated the sales as a bonus so it may not affect me as others.
While these online stores now stock gucci, seems like there are already agreements in place where these stores aren't discounting their gucci stock (some are not included in any promos codes too (hit and miss though)).
You do find they are still carrying past season stock at full prices.
It will be interesting to see what happens with these e-tailers that are so used to discounting old stock and they are left with more and more past season(s) gucci at full price.
I do agree though, everytime I'm trying to stray away from Gucci, I always ended up in one of their stores. I am guilty of buying some of the ghost pieces, now I am just hoping that none of them goes on sale.
Have they had any of the blooms shoes there? This is the same Gucci outlet that I go to as it only about an hour away. Haven't been by there since the summer though. I see alot more Gucci bags around Lexington since that outlet opened. A nice break from all the LV monogram
I've only seen bloom shoes in men's and a backpack here and there so far. They had a gorgeous bloom boston but it sold immediately. Bloom wallets are usually in stock. I'm going to Saks LV in Indianapolis in the morning LOL!! Need to exchange an item and maybe get a new bandeau. I Still love my LV with all my heart but I've been buying Gucci like a crazy lady since that store opened! Gotta stay away from there. The SA's there are super sweet especially Mandy and Kim. On a first name/text basis-I need an intervention ASAP!!Have they had any of the blooms shoes there? This is the same Gucci outlet that I go to as it only about an hour away.

I was very surprised to see all of the Gucci bags and wallets onTJMAXX. I'm guessing they are authentic,but who knows. I saw quite a few Blooms items and a few Marmonts. That bugs me

totally counter to what (we're told) Gucci want to achieve.
Do you frequent a Gucci outlet store?
How often does inventory change?
When you said above that Gucci Blooms wallet are usually in stock (outlet), do they usually include the blue Blooms with red trim/interior?
The sweet SAs...from outlet?
If so, would you mind sharing with me their contact info? I already have an SA at my boutique.
Thank you! [emoji5]

Pardon.
I wasn't looking for any ongoing sales/deals info. I know about that other thread.
I was simply inquiring about quoted comment.
Back on topic...
I used to live in Honolulu, and they opened a brand new TJ Maxx when I was there in 2013. It was a runway store, and because of the area, they had a considerable selection of Gucci, Fendi, Valentino, and then a lot of "bridge" designer pieces like Tory Burch as well.
I was just at the Gucci outlet over the weekend and there was tons of merchandise. They also had a great sale with extra 50% to 70% off so some things. So if you live close enough to one I would suggestion going and checking it out.
