I bet if they lowered them just a little bit, they would be able to move the merchandise a lot quicker. ºoº

Originally Posted By nancy_s_leong I went to the Disney outlet in Cupertino, a bit disppointed because the price was still very high, I can get better price from disneystore.com website and with free shipping and least 10% discount coupon. The only thing we walked out the store is Minnies's stamp with 49 cents each. The only thing I found with good price.
Originally Posted By SuzieQ I found the same thing at the Tracy store. Very disappointing and not nearly as good as in the past. Tracy's store was almost 100% clothing. A holiday sweatshirt was only marked down $4! Needless to say, they weren't doing very good business.

I bought a Christmas animated Minnie Mouse for $25.00 (75% off) and one of the Dalamation puppies wrapped up in Christmas lights, also 75% off. Plus some ornaments and a couple of sweat shirts. Now this store didn't last long, but what a treasure it was. I guess they've replaced this with the current outlet stores and with that said, if it is an outlet, the prices should be a lot lower. Nice to know that some of you agree with me. I am not far from the Cupertino store, but I think I'll wait till it almost closes. Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky!! ºoº

Originally Posted By BoyStory I was also really disapointed with the Tracy store. I bought several things, just b/c we were getting ready to go to DL, but I didn't feel I got any great deals. The manager was sort of following me around (marveling at my "well behaved" 5 boys, lol) and urging me to come back b/c they were gettting even more items in stock. This was just a few days after they opened, but he was bragging that the store showed all the signs of doing as well as the Vacaville store had years ago (remember THAT one- now there were some deep discounts!). I just didn't see how they could possibly do as well unless they started marking their items down further. I'm still a little addicted to the wherehouses and might check out the one in Cupertino if I hear they have some great deals.
Originally Posted By MsLindanne I too am a little addicted to the outlet stores. I just think the prices are a little high for being an outlet store. Plus, I am always looking for the collectibles in the glass counters (when you first walk in) and they haven't had much lately. But I'll keep going and hope that when I do, I'll be able to find a lot of new treasures for a good price! ºoº
Originally Posted By BoyStory Something else I've found is that often when our "local" Disney Store is having a big sale, their prices are just about as low as the wherehouses.
Originally Posted By velo Vacaville had GREAT prices! Lots of plush, too. I agree with you all, too many clothes and prices not nearly low enough at the most current outlets!
Originally Posted By 4Disnee I also loved the Vacaville store and wish that they would get one back again. We went to the one when it was in Woodland and they had some good prices on the clothes but not alot of sizes on the good stuff. lol
