Sample Sales in Montreal

In Montreal, as much as we love to be foodies, we also like to look good. Wait, not just good, but fabulous. It doesn’t matter what style we are representing, we do it best than any other Canadian city.

As any fashionista will tell you, the best items in a wardrobe has a story to tell, and most of these stories root from a bargain. A bargain is found in vintage shops, annual sales, thrift shops and lastly sample sales. Sample sales are the epitome of the great lengths we are willing to do, to look good for a good price.

In Montréal, we have plentiful of samples sale offering brands at a lower price. Last summer, I recall sifting through bins of American Apparel clothing, until I found one of my favourite shirts. American Apparel’s massive sample sale near Namur metro station, created so much buzz that the line ups were ridiculous.

So where is one to go to know of these sample sales? Are there secret e-mails be passed from one shopper to the next? Most likely there are. However, I love Sample Sales dot com, offers a place for organizers to publicize their sales. Catering to 6 cities, Montreal can be found.

Clicking on the Event Calendar, you will see past, current and future sales. With a click of a button, you have access to the hottest deals in town. It doesn’t stop there; signing up on their mailing list will only get you exclusive first passes to some events.

Since summer is on its way, it’s time to start looking good, in any style.

Love the city you are in.
