As featured on Boston's CHRONICLE show "Recession Busting", we are a unique concept offering first-quality merchandise, samples, and irregulars of current brand-name department store women's apparel.

Our prices are so ridiculously low that we can only afford to be open for "special limited event weekends".

See below for the dates and times of our upcoming events or follow us on Facebook to stay up to date!
