Was planning on making a trip to the outlets in Boaz this weekend. It has been a few months since I have ventured out that way. My evil stepmother claims the
outlets are all but dead , and not worth the trip. The last time I was out there I purchased a Auburn fossil watch for 40 bucks that I would have paid 125$
for at Hibbetts.

Your Step-Monster speaks without forked tongue, Kemo Sabe... for the most part. But there are still a few bargains to be found but nowhere near (-90%) as they
used to be.
Furthermore, let the buyer beware! Many "seconds" and outright Asian forgeries are to be found there. That said, you can still buy first run Wrangler jeans for 14 dollars.

Thanks Patch... | ||

Now I know better what to expect when I get there.
Seconds I can handle. Imitations piss me off. I also now understand my sm's sudden displeasure with the place......... First run Wranglers that her a-- will not fit in. |

Hi menton | ||

Butting in I know (I'm great at that. HAHA!) , just wanted to add that ...... well, I dunno how to see where you're from but if you have kids and live
close and are cheap (to save a buck) like me, the Boaz9 multi theatres are in the outlets along with go-cart
and stuff (no clue on that part but theatre is good). Free popcorn on Tuesdays and 5 bucks each for matinee.........
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over lousy fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship."

We will be coming from Mentone Al wich is in the ne corner of dekalb co. on lookout mnt.(about a 45 min drive)
We are going to the beach next week so my 2 kids feel the need to add to their wardrobe and play the part.(not to mention dear old dad may need a few new things as well) Guess we might catch a movie after what is sure to be a hairpulling shopping spree with a 13 year old boy and a 10 year old girl..

Yo, Mentone... | ||
|
So how was the shopping trip? Find any bargains, or are you gonna have to take out a second mortgage? Did you guys catch a movie? If so, a review please. Did
you buy your evil stepmother a nice gift?
(Sorry, couldn't help
that last one.) Come on, dood, spill the beans.
Compared to what it was 15-20 years ago, those outlets are pretty much dead, huh? WDE!!!

We chickened out on the Boaz trip. We went to Calhoun Ga. instead. No great bargains there either. But they had a Claire's so little Sierra said we had to
go there.
The boy somehow managed to weasle his way out of going.(I'm so proud of him) We spent 6 hours over there and the place was booming. It was hard to tell our economy is suffering. Folks were spending money hand over fist. |

Aaaaah, Mentone-grasshopper; it seems you have schooled Mentone Jr. in the ways of obfuscation. Well done! "Any family shopping trip I can sucessfully
avoid is a good thing."
You must return, Mentone, and teach others!
