I found somethings that I always wanted but could not  because they were too pricey (at least for me). On top of that, I didn&#8217;t want to pay for the hefty shipping surcharges.<\/p>\n<p>I bought an entry bench from the Samantha Collection &#8211; mahogany stain &#038; the gingham roman shades. Both items are catalogue\/internet exclusive. The regular price for the bench was $399 &#038; the outlet price was $285. However, there was an additional 40% off &#038; we paid $185 ! The shades were originally $89 &#038; outlet price was $59.97. However, it was further discounted to $21.97 and on that day they offered another 20% off on all items except for furniture which had 40% off. The final price for the shades were $17.57 each. We took 4 shades &#8211; 2 for each of our boys&#8217; rooms. I was overjoyed !<\/p>\n<p>Although the bench has 2 minor scratches, it was OK because my kids would have &#8220;abuse&#8221; it within days. The roman shades &#8211; unbelievable ! I didn&#8217;t have to  separate rods and curtains and they are easy to install (makes mr credit card happy). In fact the shades are lined with blackout materials which is what I wanted. <\/p>\n<table width='400'>\n<tr>\n<td><img id=\"image229\" width='200' height='150' src=\"\/\/askmrcreditcard.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/dscn1488.JPG\" alt=\"bench\" \/>\n<\/td>\n<td><img id=\"image230\" width='200' height='150' src=\"\/\/askmrcreditcard.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/dscn1489.JPG\" alt=\"40% sale\" \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>(Left)<\/b> &#8211; The bench that we bought. <b>Right<\/b> &#8211; 40% discount sign at Pottery Barn Outlet.<\/p>\n<p>I love browsing at Pottery Barn Outlet. They have merchandise from West Elms &#038; William &#038; Sonoma too. They have everything you need for a house. From beds, mirrors, sheets, lawn chairs etc etc etc&#8230;..I was almost dragged out by the store assistants at closing. You can  so many beautiful things for your house at a fraction of what you might pay at the regular store\/catalogue\/internet &#8211; even at their sale price. With careful planning and patience, you too can furnish your house in style.<\/p>\n<p>Shopping at outlets is definitely a great way to save especially for big ticket items like furniture, china, designer clothes and shoes. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m patiently waiting to return to the store again &#8211; and my neighbor wants to come along ! <\/p>\n<p>P.S. &#8211; This post is written by Mrs Credit Card (as I&#8217;m sure you suspected!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a short visit to Strasburg in Pennsylvania, I found a Pottery Barn at Rockvale Outlets.
