The Chicago mansion is great for ***** and giggles but the fact that I can buy every last item in there for one fifth of the price at Marshall's/TJ's/PRL outlet a mere 6 months later makes *actually* shopping there a non-starter.

I always feel kinda scummy doing this. Watching the sales associate's sad eyes as I walk out the door after having them help me out.

Unfortunately this is rarely true for me for the items that interest me.

Same. I doubt any 40R RLBL ends up anywhere near those places.

Really? I have a hard time finding the stuff in the Chicago Mansion (black label, purple label) anywhere else in the city for a good deal.

You won't find the same stuff at a discount chain store. Hell, Nordstrom Rack carries stuff that never saw the inside of a Nordstrom store.
