Went to GLC today and here is what I remember -- madison hippies in acorn and lavender, madison carryalls in white/green and brown/beige, tribecas in various colors, alex stitched totes and satchels in lavender and white, lime green haileys,madison boxed op-art carryall,peyton totes,spotlights in pale pink and blue and lots of accessories, including the heart shaped coin purse, floral audrey small wallets and so many more.. just didn't look at that tray too closely... sounds like a lot, but be warned..They went real quick and the SA's just seemed to be putting out the real good bags one or two at a time..You may need to hang around for a few hours or so, keep coming back.. I have gone daily for the past four days and today I finally struck gold... Got the lavender hippie and the black/white boxed carryall...
 
Thank you Ilovehandbags!..the SA said that they had tons of new FP transfers still to be unpacked..and that Thursdays and Fridays were the best days to come in...not sure about charge sends though..

How much was the lavender hippie?

I wonder if I should make a trip up.
 
I'm back home from shopping today. So I thought I'd post a quick update. I thought both GLC and BR had a good (better than recently) selection of bags. Although GLC did not have the bag I was looking for (Madison (spectator?) Hippie in Lilac/Lavender color. BR did have this bag (and also Audrey version too), so that saved me from trekking to Howell too.

Bags I remember seeing at GLC:
Grey Tribecca E/W Tote
Black Tribecca E/W Tote
Pale beige color (maybe acorn) Madison Hippie
Flower Print w/ Gold Audrey
Black and White Madison Carryall
Black and Tan leather Peyton Totes (50% off)

Bags I remember seeing at BR:
Madison Lilac/Lavender Spectator Hippie (I bought only one that was out. Don't know if it was last one.)
Madison Lilac/Lavender Spectator Audrey (bought one and there was one left)
Grey Tribecca E/W Tote (I bought only one that was out. Don't know if it was last one.)
Black Tribecca E/W Tote
Flower Print w/ Gold Audrey
Black Leather Coach Peyton Large Carryall (50% off)
Off-white color Peyton crossbody draw string bag (50% off)

Also I had what I thought was a really good CS experience at BR. I was checking out the two Spectator Audreys there and I was really town because I the texture of the leather looked different on them. And I clearly liked one better than the other. However one that I liked better had a scratch on it. I asked if they had any others in the back. The SA went and looked they didn't. I showed her my dilemma. She tried to buff out scratch and it didn't really do much. So she talked to the manager and got approval to sell for another additional 20% off. Which really made it too good of a deal to refuse. (30% off, then additional 20% off, then additional 30% off ---> in total it was 61% off full price). It was actually really smart on there part, because I ended up walking out with 3 bags and a keyfob instead of 1 bag and a keyfob. (Decided on grey tribecca when I was still on Audrey high.)
 
I just came from the Howell outlet. Nothing too exciting is left.

Tribecca E/W tote - black leather, brown op art and tan/gold op art.
Poppy leather pocket hobo - light blue
Poppy light pink and a dark pink leather glam tote.
A couple of the Alex totes in black and the brown op art. I can't remember what it's called, but the shiny material.

That was about it for the FP deletes. They had an orange poppy glam tote that someone was getting for $75! Good deal. I think she got the last one though.
