Which outlet is the best to call? I do not live in an area where they have any Brahmin outlets. Do they charge for shipping? What are their usual percent off sales? Sorry for all the questions. I really like Brahmin bags. So unique.

I like the West Palm Beach Outlet. I am a phone order customer and Amanda the Manager has been great.
The Fairhaven outlet is also good. Contact Beth or Jane.

The sales are really the best deals, usually around the various holidays. 30% off is the standard discount but sales can reap 40-70% off depending on that particular sale.

Shipping is a standard flat fee of $10 out of Fairhaven. At the other outlets it is more unfortunately and varies depending on how much you purchase...I assume due to the weight and pkg. size.
 
I don't have any Brahmin boutiques where I live--I didn't even know they had those! (I checked their website but I'm nowhere near them anyhoo). I didn't know I could do pre-sale over the phone, either. I'll sign up for their mailing list and hopefully they'll have something for December. Macy's had some Brahmin in a sale back in October, but none of them were designs I wanted. I don't think I can sign up for their catalogue online, but I'll try...thanks for the tips!
Brahmin is part of the big Dillard's day after Christmas sale. I'm nowhere near and outlet and live about 2 hours from any metro area. But I'm 10 minutes from the only Dillards within that 2 hour drive. I will be there ready to grab a couple bags.
 
Nearest Dillard's is about an hour's drive so I would end up buying online and since Dillard's doesn't have free returns I might skip it. I got my catalog today and there was no coupon, haha, so I was a bit crestfallen but it's probably best!

This is the Brahmin Gabriella Melbourne in Toasted Macaroon.

It was between this, the Astral or the tried-and-true Pecan (I do not have any brown bags and want one). As ya'll know, I really liked the Andesite they did for this bag, too. (I've resolved the whole top-handle-inconvenience thing by using Apple Pay and my card case to pay for everything. This bag is worth it.)

The website photos of this bag make it seem like the raised areas pull caramel or beige, but it's actually a silver tone giving the effect of raised reptilian bumps. I think the Brahmin Coconut color pulls beige in the raised areas, so I just wanted to put that out there if you're wondering how Brahmin Toasted Macaroon and Coconut are different.

I just love the shape of this bag. It is so classy! Congrats!

Bag twins. I couldn't resist when Dillards had a 30% off on this beautiful bag.
