This weekend was the J. Crew Warehouse Sample Sale in Asheville, North Carolina. I have been to quite a few of these sales lately including Raleigh, Lynchburg and to the latest in Asheville. While I am a shopper, I am actually going to these sales with purpose. I have been searching high and low for this J. Crew Ratti Pineapple Skirt.
I am in love with this skirt and have been searching for it for years. It is the Moby Dick of my closet. I didn’t find it at this sale, however I came out with more stuff than I thought was humanly possible.
Disclaimer: my husband is a die hard shopper and has been building quite the sneaker collection so he definitely helped. His hull was even more deadly than mine. If you need a run down of prices, check out my first post from the Raleigh sale. I didn’t take my price sheet home with me from this one.
In total we came away with
3 Penfield Jackets
1 Dress
2 Skirts
5 Bags
10 Pairs of Sneakers
7 Pairs of Dress shoes
3 Pairs of Birkenstocks
2 Pairs of Illesteva Sunglasses
1 Statement Necklace
2 Ebbets Field Hats
For a grand total of $4,850 savings off of the retail price (give or take a dollar). So while I didn’t find my skirt this time, I am thrilled with our purchases.
There is still one day left of the sale (today, 5/22/16). If you are in the area, it’s totally worth it and Asheville is gorgeous this time of year! And if you are someone who is interested in future J. Crew Sample Sales definitely call the store in Lynchurg or Asheville and have them put you on their email blast. Happy Shopping!
P.S. If you have the skirt and are willing to part with it, I am totally willing to take it off your hands.
