DSW Extra Discount

We are receiving reports that the DSW Gucci sale has had a huge turnout. There are lines to get in and lines around the store to check out. One reader wrote that there was so much inventory it made the double-G brand seem tacky and overplayed.

Another reader writes:

That the merchandise bins and shoe racks were so crowded that you couldn’t move – all this for some vinyl hats and belts from several seasons past. Wasn’t a huge G fan to begin with but this just totally turned me off – not a smart move in terms of maintaining brand image.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t great finds. One happy Gucci/DSW shopper reports:

I went to NYC store today at noon and got a beautiful real ostrich tote bag for $500… All silk scarfs are $50 each. I got three 35″ square silk scarfs, some of them are definitely $350 originally.

We hear that Gucci logo totes are priced at $250, wallets $50, belts $50, fanny packs $150 and shoes range from $150 to $250. These prices sound better than China Town fakes. The return policy is grab now, think later. And many people are doing just that.

For those of you brave enough withstand the crowds and risk being tacky, here’s an additional 15% off
