TWIN CITIES PREMIUM OUTLETS

I ’ m a girl who loves to get a good deal , which is imperative to my bank account since I have this uncontrollable need to buy gifts for people . So as I was looking for places to shop this holiday season , I stumbled across Twin Cities Premium Outlets , which is conveniently located just five miles south of Minneapolis / St . Paul International Airport .
I checked out their website to see what options they had and was impressed with the wide selection of luxury and sporting stores . I could literally get everything I wanted at one place and for much cheaper than any other mall . I could go to Under Armour Outlet for my dad , Filson Outlet for my brothers , Movado Outlet for my boyfriend and even Coach Factory Store or Michael Kors Outlet for my mom . I was sold !
The next morning , I got in my car , parked in the parking ramp and began my shopping extravaganza . One of the first things I noticed was that the mall has a “ race track ” layout , which I absolutely loved . Rather than wondering around in the cold of December , I can start and end in the exact same place , which was really nice because I had to make multiple stops to my car .
After unloading my final haul , I was able to sit down with Renee Lawler , the Director of Marketing and Business Development , to get an inside take on this extraordinary find . “ It ’ s really a hidden treasure ! We have great sales and events going on all year such as our Summer Fun series through the summer , Sidewalk Sales , Deer Widows Weekend in November and Santa and his Reindeer over the holiday , just to name a few .”
My conversation with Renee was truly insightful and I learned that this outlet mall was not only a gem to indulge in my spontaneous yet totally reasonable shopping addiction , but it is a fun place to hang out with my friends for the day . The amazing deals and events that are going on all the time makes this outlet more than just a one stop shop – it ’ s an experience . As a seasoned shopper and deal hunter , I would defiantly recommend Twin Cities Premium Outlets for your shopping and tourist destination . And from one shopper to another , make sure you join their VIP Shopper Club ( www . premiumoutlets . com / twincities ) because not only will you be the first to know of special events , but you get the Savings Passport filled with over 70 coupons complimentary . Trust me , your bank account will thank you !
