i *love* outlet malls. there is one just 15 minutes north of us in calhoun that i love to visit, and i know that when we’re in savannah this weekend we’ll be hitting up the outlet mall there. i had heard that outlet malls don’t sell merchandise at lower than retail prices but instead sell merchandise different than the regular stores. that, however, has not deterred me from spending money there.

there is another outlet mall in dawsonville that i want to visit (want to go, stacey??), and i know there’s one in pigeon forge, where i used to go every year in high school. thinking about those made me wonder how many places i’ve visited that have outlet malls i didn’t know about. then, i found one of the best web sites ever, www.efactoryoutlets.com, which is a guide to factory outlet malls throughout the country. how awesome is that? each outlet mall seems to have different stores, and i’m so excited now to see how many i can go to when we go on trips. what can i say, i’m a shopaholic!
