Fashion-forward retailer, Intermix, is making its winter sale more attractive by offering an extra 50-percent off the sale price. But as fellow shopper, Laura, found out, the appalling service is killing the shopping experience. Here’s what she had to say about her experience at the Madison Avenue boutique:
When I got word Intermix was marking down their sale items another 50% off the sale price, I headed over to the uptown outpost (1003 Madison at 77th Street) to check out what designer goods they had on sale. The prices were excellent but my experience was mauled by some pretty atrocious customer service.

After hearing about the Manolo Blahnik end-of-season sale, I thought I’d head over to the boutique on West 54th Street to see what’s left. What I found was an abundant selection of shoes (strappy high heels and sandals, kitten heels and flats… in leather, suede, pony hair, alligator; as well as boots – high and ankle length). Most of the footwear are still at 50-percent off the original retail price but there were also some styles for 60-percent off.

Through this Wednesday (January 25th), Bloomingdale’s is hosting its winter sale & clearance online and in stores. With the first significant snowstorm to hit New York City this season, the store on 3rd Avenue was fairly quiet for a Saturday. It was a good time for fellow shopper, Laura, to check out the offerings. Here’s her findings:
I headed over to Bloomingdale’s to check out their additional 40% and 50% discounts on designer merchandise. Maybe because I just saw the designer consolidation sale at Saks Fifth Avenue and insane markdowns at Neimanmarcus.com you could say expectations were high. At Bloomingdale’s the store was quiet for a Saturday especially the contemporary section. What I did see was almost every section from Marc by Marc to DVF to Joie to Theory to Alice and Olivia having a lot of merchandise marked at 40% off. It didn’t all look exclusively “winter” either some of the sections had work appropriate items that could definitely be pushed into spring.

I made a quick stop into the Theory sale in Soho on Wednesday… the discount is still at 70-percent off and there was a lot of merchandise left. A new shipment of goods just arrived when we got there. Staffers were taking the boxes into the back room so they could replenish the sales floor.

Wednesday afternoon, a line had formed in the hallway outside the Mikimoto Fifth Avenue showroom. A group of women (including one who was wearing a kimono) patiently waited to have a look at the offerings inside. After about half-an-hour, we were all inside.
