Thought you got a buzz from the sales? The adrenaline of scanning the rails of clothes and the feel of a bargain in your hand? Well wait until you go to a sample sale.
Sample sales are used by retailers to get rid of excess stock at reduced prices. They're often limited to a day or two and open to the public - DO you need any more reason to go!?
Historically, the items were the samples which were sent to buyers, presentations and shows but these days, its more likely to be summer stock being cleared out in winter and old lines being cleared.
So last week I attended a REISS sample sale with my pal Charlotte R and, despite the 7:30am queue, it was SO worth it!
It was Charlotte's first time at a sample sale and when telling her my hints and tips it occurred to me to write a post about sample sale etiquette.
I may as well share the knowledge which I have amassed from my days of frantically running around (or crawling around) other sales. Yes, crawling - for reals. Wanna know why? Keep reading.
