SHOPPING
 

HI THERE, <BR> <BR>Me and wife plan to go to california in early next month. Can you help as to where we can go for bargain stuffs eg clothing etc and great shopping places. thanks. <BR>

Hi Baza, <BR>You will probably get more responses if you repost your inquiry under the heading of BARGAIN SHOPPING IN CALIFORNIA? or something like that! <BR> <BR>Enjoy your trip.

Where in CAlifornia are you going??? IT's a big state! If it's near LA, I hear that the Ontario Mills Mall (West of LA) is a good place. Have Fun!

That is a big question without knowing where you plan to go. If you are in the San Francisco Bay area than you may want to try the very large outlet mall in Gilroy or the outlet mall in Milpitas. <BR> <BR>If you tell us your destination than it will be much easier to advise you.

If you are in Southern California, the Camarillo Outlet or the Palm Springs Outlet are both very good.

What stores are in the palm springs outlets?

Palm Springs has Coach, Wedgewood/Waterford, Barneys, Gucci, Giorgio Armani, Tod's, Armani Exchange, BCBG, Brooks Brothers, J. Crew, Perry Ellis, St. John, Nike, Saks 5th Avenue ... You get the picture; it's upscale, according to my standards. Their web address is www.PremiumOutlets.com.

By the way, the Palm Springs outlet is official entitled "Desert Hills Premium Outlets".
