Vera Bradley Outlet

I am going to the Chicago area to visit family this summer and noticed there is a Vera Bradley outlet there. Has anyone been there? I was just wondering if it was worth going? Thanks!

I've never been to the Chicago outlet but it's probably worth a looksie and as long as you aren't looking for anything specific.

I have been to the Vera Bradley a couple of times. The prices are good. Sometimes a little better than the sale prices on the regular website. They do not have the new patterns there, only the older ones. Sometimes they also have good sales like an extra 20% off a particular pattern. I bought a large duffle bag last year for $48, and a large bow cosmetic bag for $12. I do appreciate the fact that I can see and hold a bag in person before I buy it. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the input. I like the older patterns just as much as the newer ones so it might be worth it for me!! I think I will take a chance and go!!

I was at the one in Aurora (Premium outlets or something like that) last month. The prices weren't any better than online (or were much higher in some cases). However, they were very nice, and exchanged the bags I purchased online, for different prints they had in the store - that I know were more expensive on line. They didn't charge me anything extra, and the sales clerk took my email and phone info, and offered to call me when they have their clearance event this summer. I'm excited about that, since I need a few things for my trip I prefer going to the store, even if the price is a bit higher - it helps seeing the bags in person.
