Columbus Day these days doesn’t mean much unless you work in banking, work for the post office or love a good sale weekend. It’s still a bit early for mainstream retailers to begin heavy discounts but that doesn’t mean there aren’t deals to be had.
Those looking for some fun day-off discount shopping should proceed to your local outlet center. Just beware, some outlet stores are better at the holiday hype than the holiday discounts. Read below to find out the promotions at some of our favorite outlet stores at Woodbury Common Premium Outlets.
Bottega Veneta
If you’re looking for extra savings on a supple woven bag you’re out of luck. The only additional discounts for the weekend will be in the shoe department where shoes are an additional 60% off.
