Through this Sunday, August 12th, the Creatures of Comfort sample sale is taking place at 217 Centre Street.
We checked out the offerings Thursday evening.
There’s plenty of clothing hanging on racks which are organized by type (tops, pants, dresses, etc). Sizing is random and you’ll need to rummage to figure that out. Prices for RTW was mostly under $100.
Stock shoes ($90) are in boxes along a wall separated by size. While an image of the style displayed the style inside, it wasn’t always easy to figure out. Thus, prompting most shoppers to open up the boxes.
Sample shoes were a better deal at $50 and can be found mixed up in boxes. Worth digging in!
Handbags ($110-$150) were on display in a corner of the space. The selection was limited as a staffer informed me that these were the first to go in the first few hours after opening.
No dressing room, just mirrors in the back of the space where shoppers were trying things on.
Before you can shop, you’ll need to check in your handbag.
I’m told that they will be restocking merchandise – more of the same stuff. As for handbags, what’s out is all they have.

on August 14, 2018 10:50 pmGreat prices. Awful staff. Extremely defensive, unorganized, and immature. Yelp reviews say everything. Been shopping sample sales for 4 years. Had my share of negative experiences, but never to the point I felt humiliated enough by staff to write a Yelp review and contact their CEO directly. Just don’t even. The bargains aren’t worth being degraded by a bunch of 20 year olds who never worked a day of customer service. They’re trying to sell $800 items with subpar Mcdonalds service.
