As I left, the serious shoppers rolled out. Hundreds of them with backpacks, water, and Outlet Mall Maps in their hands, looking bewildered and confused by the brilliance of it all..
*********************

My last job was in the home office of a major retailer - when they went outlet too...holy toledo! The sales numbers were through the roof - figuring the company average of x number of dollars per sale divided by a daily gross average of "ohmigawd!" equals the population of Rhode Island walking through the doors every day. As soon as you mentioned how you're not a big shopper, I started chuckling.

Glad to hear you not only made it out alive, but you found what you wanted!
