WileyCoyote's March 2018 Shopping Report

We didn't buy as much this trip but we did pick up some excellent bargains

Our first purchase was in New Orleans - and it was some artwork
We met the artist, Danny Delancey outside St Louis Cathedral



Andy bought that Adidas Hoody and Joggers in the pic in Sawgrass Mills, FLL - $20 each, just as well as NOLA was cold !



We bought two prints - numbers 1/100 for $50 each



We also bought three prints of the famous New Orleans blue dog/werewolf as they reminded us of our three mutts. $12 each




On to Orlando then ...



Levis Clearance $27

Black pair for me, other pair for Andy





Calvin Klein Clearance $43




Lacoste I Drive outlets
Several jumpers and a t shirt $120



Adidas I Drive outlets $53




Tommy Hilfiger Clearance Pointe Orlando

PJ sets $15 each



Stripey jumper ( compulsory purchase on every trip) $20




Shirts - one was $10 , the other $15



I checked the receipt briefly and we had been overcharged for the PJs - so they took the receipt and refunded us - it was only the following day we realised we had also been overcharged another $20 for the jumper --- and had no receipt So deffo check before you exit !

Disney Character Warehouse

MK chocs $5.99
DCA mug $4.99
Tinkerbell plate $4.99



Ralph Lauren I Drive outlet - Mens ( I had an extra 30% voucher through their email sign up) $29



Grey polo and two grey tees



Ralph Lauren I Drive outlet - Childrens ( still using the 30% voucher and good sizes up to age 18-20 )

Long sleeve Tees $31





Tommy Hilfiger Clearance Kissimmee

Tartan Shawls $15



I bought a couple as xmas gifts and wore one on the plane home !




Ralph Lauren Vineland outlet

Long sleeve tee - using 30% voucher $7.50 !







Adidas Vineland $42




Nike Near Celebration $37




Lacoste Vineland

Tees $20 each




Ellenton

Lacoste Handbag $73



Lacoste Mens Joggers $10 each ! I think these were the bargain of the holiday, reduced from $135




So there it is, pretty restrained but we didn't need much stuff and so we really only went for absolute bargains
We were pretty pleased with it all ]

And a couple of you are here mugs too ..

DAK delivered by the fabulous angelbabe, thank you



and Miami

That's a decent haul, Amanda. Some good bargains there, and I particularly like the stripey jumper. Shame you ended up being overcharged for it though.

Would you mind telling me where the Calvin Klein Clearance is? I like their dresses for work but always just go to I-Drive or Vineland Outlets.

Edited to add: Glad to see Andy held back on the shoe purchases!

Of course ... I didn't buy a new one for the trip so had to get one in somewhere

I love the bag too. I was sad to see Mandarina Duck has gone as it was my favourite for bags

Thank you ! It completes my set. I like the jumper too, bit different with the mock shirt .

Hi Lynda. It's the shops just along from IDrive outlets. They are opposite Artegon . It's called Outlet Marketplace. There is a big Nike and Tommy Hilfiger at the front. Set back from the road is CK , US Polo Assn, American Outfitters. CK looks a regular store at the front but the back is all their clearance stuff, probably half the store. Bit of a jumble sale but all 70% off. It's a shame the boys don't wear it as the men's tees and polo shirts are amazing value

We always stop here first now before the outlets.

Really like the artwork... just had a look at his Instagram page. I like that you know what he's thinking when he's painting.

We chatted to him for ages. I think Andy had his eye on the big canvas pieces at one point. It was really interesting listening to him and learning about art in New Orleans.
Now we just need wall space for them

We were quite strict with ourselves this time ( trainers excepted of course). We have so much from previous trips that we rested the urge to get quite a few things. There are only so many polo shirts you can wear We thought the prices were OK even with the poorer rate.
