I went into Gordman's in Peoria, ILL the other day and noticed on how it was clean and everyone was friendly. I enjoy going into a place were I know that the employees are friendly and welling to help you if needed.
In order to get the good deals you have to look all over the place. I was able to pick up my 11 year old daughter a coach purse that was $95.00 reg and I got if for $7.00 at the discount price. I bought 3 bags of stuff and only paid $50.00. Make sure that you look around on the discount isles and the see if there is going to be additional discount when you check out. Most of the time on the rack it will let you know what the reg. price is and what it would be if you had a discount plus an additional discount off. Also, during the holidays most of the stores will give you a scratch off card and whatever that card says is your % off of the total amount.
