WheelNut Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Just browsed the Brooks Brothers website. I found a nice pair of crocodile slippers for $1k. That place is expensive is an understatement. I'll have to skip that store.http://www.brooksbrothers.com/IWCatProduct...ult_color=Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to skip that store.http://www.brooksbrothers.com/IWCatProduct...ult_color=BrownI heard from the guy who does the bread route for HEB and Walmart in Cypress that a Sams club is going to be built on the land next to the outlet center. He was told he will get the new Sam's bread business. Has anyone else heard this? I really hope this is not true.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hbcu Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 light pollution...lolAnd just think I was in Navasota recently and eanted to go home the back way through Magnolia...when it was only 13 miles to Highway 105 to 1488 I tripped out and realized this growth won't stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveK Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 What's wrong with Sam's?Nothing, I am a member of Sam's. I just think it is a bad fit right next to an upscale outlet mall. The original plan that I heard about was that whole area was going to be the high end outlet mall and nice restaurants. I think adding a Sam's there is a bad move.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfootball Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Agreed. Bad move...for the Outlet Center & Fairfieldians (but not for Sams).There are signs up in the wooded section next to Fairfield (just northwest of the Outlet Center) advertising a new HEB Powercenter coming soon.

WheelNut Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 If a Sams Club were to be built next to the outlet mall there would be a "mass exodus" of current Fairfield residents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheelNut Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 POWERCENTER is nothing more than a fancy way of saying strip mall.Google search HEB Powercenter - http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navc...HEB+POWERCENTER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom22Blessings Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Well there is a Sam's next to the Portofino Center. I don't think that ones done so badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WheelNut Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Are there any houses adjacent to the Portofino Center? Sam's itself isn't the problem. Building it so close to the neighborhood is the problem.I don't think it will be built near the Outlet Mall. I'm thinking it will be near the Grand Parkway and 290 intersection.

mrfootball Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Agree, there's a Town Center that is slated to go up next to the Outlet Mall...and the HEB on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimcas Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 The Retailer listing has been posted:http://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlets/stor...sting.asp?id=77Looks like they are continuing to add stores to this link. For example, when this was originally posted, there was only a pretzel place listed under food, now there are several more food court options on this page.

mrfootball Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I always thought it should be a no-brainer for Raising Canes to simply offer a salad to put that delicious chicken in. Seriously, it would cost them like (nothing) and then they could offer a 'quasi' healthy alternative to bring in the ladies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houstongirl Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I wouldn't be surprised if they added more home furnishing stores. There are only a handful listed at this time. The food choices are lacking, but they typically aren't great at outlets. I'm wondering if the Sausage Kingdom has any relation to Abe Froman, the Sausage King of Chicago?

angtx Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I agree. I also heard that a Disney outlet was coming but it isn't listed yet. I think these are just the confirmed ones that will be open during the grand opening with more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crunchtastic Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 What on earth do you buy at a Disney outlet? Scratchy south american movie dubs? scratchy tshirts with the armholes wrong? Kids don't want last year's crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angtx Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 You would be surprised at what Disney has to offer!! They have a TON of home items and other items from the Disney Store and online store at great prices. Or, if it is a Character Warehouse, they offer discounted items from the parks. There is a huge market for their stuff which is why they have been rapidly expanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WheelNut Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Does anyone know where one could post the deals for the stores at the outlet?
