😀 i think i saw u too! when u were lining up about to get in? but i was too shy to say hi!

anyway, like u said, its not very designer-ish… i’d rather buy from somewhere nice.. with change rooms and mirrors 😛

Ahhh you should’ve! But yeah, I’d rather buy from Jeans West since the jeans there are also $80. The thought of buying really pulled and smushed around jeans and having to fight girls from it just kinda takes the fun out of shopping :X

Warehouse sale

I agree with you that it isn’t very designer-ish for stores to hold a warehouse sale. The trend has hit Toronto, Canada.

Keeping in mind that the store is probably making loads of money because clothes are usually marked up 60%, even with 50% off, they are still making thier margins. The store is also saving money by not having to upkeep a store and hire/train long term staff. I also disagree with it because I think it ruins their brand name when stores hold warehouse sales.

Re: Warehouse sale

I always thought warehouse sales had decent clothes, but this one had TONS of the same clothes and all were quite, erm, scungy looking. Plus the fact that girls were screaming and fighting just makes me want to run away. And yeah, $80 for a pair of jeans, even discounted, isn’t THHAAATT cheap considering it’s in a gross looking dirty warehouse!

I know, I rather pay a bit more for good service and nicely stacked clothes. The stuff strewn everwhere and people scrambling like those in wet markets just puts me off, ha. 😛

Haha, exactly! It’s so off-putting seeing girls act like a pack of wolves. I’d rather pay a bit extra and shop in a nice store :T

you know, i think i saw you leaving the warehouse today. LOL… no wonder i thought i’ve seen this person somewhere before.

Gaaah! Hope I wasn’t doing anything embarassing :X I was probably looking grumpy ‘cos I couldn’t find anything. Did you get anything??

haha.. noooo, you were just walking out of the sale with your other 2 friends. nothing embarassing! haha..
i only managed to get the funky thompson jacket. 🙁

At least you got the jacket! The ones I saw were those ugly chunky cord jackets :X I didn’t see anything nice, and nothing in my size :((((
