Plan on spending the whole day here!

and  some helpful hints:

1. Since there are no dressing rooms be prepared to strip.  Leggings, a tank top and shoes that can easily slip off and on make all the difference.
2. Bring a friend.  Mirrors are scarce.
3. Avoid bringing small children and strollers.  This kind of shopping is not fun for them or you.
4. Start at the top and work your way down.  Use the stairs!
5. Remember it is final sale so check items carefully.  With that in mind remember you are getting a great deal.  Small flaws may not really matter.
6. Credit cards are accepted in most places but not all so bring cash.
7. Remember politeness goes a LONG way.
8. You are at a sample sale and not Neiman Marcus.
9. Have fun.  New York is the only other city that enjoys this unique shopping experience.
