I live in Ft Wayne. It is Vera Bradleys' headquarters. Every May they have an outlet sale. Prices are usually 50 - 75% off. They are supposed to be seconds and discontinued patterns. This year 64,000 people attended the 5 day sale. I can't remember exactly how many semi trailers they had full of stuff but I think I heard 30!!!!!!
It is quite the event. Check their website the beginning of the year to find out when the sale is if you like Vera but not the retail prices.
